Multi-titled Australian promoter Peter Maniatis who co-manages WBA light flyweight Interim champion Randy ?Razor? Petalcorin with young Jim Claude Manangquil of General Santos City, is expecting ?fireworks? when Petalcorin clashes with WBA Pan African champion Omar Kimweri for the vacant WBC Silver title at the Melbourne Pavilion on Friday.

Both fighters tipped the scales at 108 pounds.

Fight supervisor is the renowned Australian Frank Quill while the referee will be one time Olympic boxer Malcolm Bulner, formerly from Sri Lanka.

Present at the official weigh-in was Petalcorin?s co-manager Jim Claude Managquil together with Peter Maniatis and coach Renie Gabawa.

Peter Maniatis told The Standard "Petalcorin made weigh easily he had breakfast in the morning today and he feels fit and strong. We are expecting fireworks tomorrow (Friday) night. It's a great chance to show case Randy to Melbourne. We know Kimweri will come out of the blocks all guns blazing and we will be ready."
