Fight fans will get a chance to size up Hungarian Olympian Zsolt Bedak who is ranked No. 4 by the World Boxing Organization who battles five division world champion Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire at the Cebu Sports Center on April 23, in a one hour special to be telecast on ?The Main Event? over PBO/Sky Cable at 8:30 p.m. on Saturday with a replay at 10:30 a.m.on Sunday.

The special will feature highlights of Bedak?s 7th round knockout of talented Filipino Ramie Laput in a WBO International title fight in May 2010 and the Hungarian?s only loss to Puerto Rico?s Wilfredo Vazquez Jr in a clash for the WBO super bantamweight title which Vazquez Jr won by a 10th round stoppage after Bedak suffered a broken jaw in the 2nd round but continued on gallantly until his corner threw in the towel because he couldn?t continue.

Donaire?s training in the sweltering heat of the ?In This Corner? Gym in BF Homes, Paranaque which is now run by boxing man Dante Almario when Nonito sparred five rounds against aggressive super featherweight Virgil Puton and an interview with Donaire and his trainer/father ?Dodong? Donaire highlight the show.

The exciting fight card titled ?Its About Time? will also showcase the talent of unbeaten Mark ?Magnifico? Magsayo and his celebrated American opponent Chris Avalos.

There will also be snippets of Donaire at the top-rated noontime show, ?SHOWTIME? and the well-attended press conference at the Executive Dining Room of ABS-CBN.

The fights will be telecast on Sunday, April 24 at 10:00 a.m. over the pre-eminent Channel 2 and will also be telecast ?live? on Sky Cable and the tremendously popular TFC, The Filipino Channel in the middle east.
