?MAGIC? Mike Plania and the other three fighters from Sanman Boxing Stable of General Santos City made a clean sweep to formalize their invasion in Makati City on Saturday night at the Makati Square Cinema.
Plania continued his winning streak by scoring a majority decision victory over crowd-favorite and erstwhile undefeated Lorence Rosas in the main event to cop the vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF) International bantamweight title.
Judges Gil Co (96-92) and Nowell Haduca (95-93) both scored it in favor of Plania while judge Jerrold Tomeldan saw it even at 94-all.
?Nagpasumbag na lang ko sa iyaha kay kaya man nako iya kumo ug para maka counter ko sa iyaha,? said Plania, who is a noted counter-puncher.
Plania improved his record to 10 wins with 4 knockouts and no loss or draw while it was only the first setback for Rosas after five straight victories with two draws.
?I was satisfied with Mike Plania?s performance. It was a good win,? said Plania?s young manager and promoter Jim Claude ?JC? Manangquil, chief executive officer of the Sanman Promotions.
Three of Plania?s stablemates also scored contrasting wins in the Sanman?s inaugural boxing show in Metro Manila ? Brawl at the Mall: Undefeated - sponsored by Tramway Buffet Roxas Boulevard, Mike Pelayo of M22 Builders In., Kerwin Yu of Z Hostel, Beyond Yoga, Ernest Ochoa, Elmer Rodriguez, Jomari Viola of JTV Trading, Remax Capital and Marlon Doria.
Reigning WBC Asia and WBF International featherweight champion John Vincent ?Mulawin? Moralde of Davao City survived against ex-PBF bantamweight champion Jimmy ?Xcon Tirador? Aducal by escaping with a split decision in the main supporting match.
?It wasn?t good but he (Moralde) got the job done. I (just) hope he learned a lesson to not underestimate anyone and should train harder in every fight,? said Manangquil.
Moralde said that his training was affected by his constant travel back home to Davao from Gensan because of his recent wedding and to change the registration of their son.
?Kulang dyud akong training mao nahutdan ko ug hangin na after the five rounds. Pero kaya nako iyang kumo,? said Moralde, who remained undefeated in 16 fights with 7 knockouts, no loss or draw.
Moralde wanted to quit already after five rounds but regained his momentum and remained standing after reminded him that his wife is already 8 months pregnant of their second baby.
?Naulian dyud ko human ko gi sultihan ni Boss JC,? said Moralde.
Marquil Salvana and Reymart Gaballo also both scored convincing wins for Sanman.
Salvana stopped Lowell Saguisa of Quezon City in 2:32 of the first round by a technical knockout. Saguisa surrendered after he suffered a deep cut on his left eyebrow due to an accidental headbutt. But that was after he also suffered two knockdowns caused by Salvana?s solid punches.
Gaballo, on the other hand, immediately waxed hot en route to a TKO win in 1:01 of the opening round of a scheduled 8-rounder over Marlon Arcilla of Laguna. Gaballo landed a right overhand on the face of Arcilla, who helplessly dropped down on the canvas.
The other results:
Jenel Lausa stopped Roy Lagraba in 1:17 of 1st round TKO; Dexter Dimaculangan won by UD over Glenn Calacar; Aiman Abu Bakar of Malaysia won by UD over Alimar Francisco; Jessie Caballes beat Roberto Mendano by UD.
