CEBU CITY ? WBO Youth Asia-Pacific super bantamweight titlist Jack Tepora (17W-0L,12KO?s), together with his Omega gym stablemates Kenny Demecillo (10-3-2,7KO?s) and Christian Araneta (11-0,9KO?s) had a free to public boxing workout session Saturday afternoon at Robinson?s Fuente to promote the upcoming 'Who's Next' boxing series event set this July 10 at the Robinson's Galleria.

Tepora will headline the event in the same venue where he captured his WBO regional belt by 5th round knockout against Jason Tinampay last March 6.

Tepora and his fellow fighters demonstrated to the crowd the various routines ? core exercises, planking, movement drills - that boxers go through when preparing for a fight. They also hit the punch mitts with their trainers Pingping and Jingjing Tepora.

Rugged crowd pleaser Kenny Demecillo will be in the main supporting bout. Demecillo got a citation during the 34th SAC-SMB Cebu Sports Awards last April because of his twin victories against a highly regarded prospect from the Sanman Gym, Daryl Basadre. Those two fights enabled Demecillo to win the WBA Oceania and WBF Asia-Pacific bantamweight titles.

The workout also offered prizes and gift products for the fans who attended the event from International Pharmaceuticals. The event was hosted by ring announcer Sandi Grumo. In attendance was Omega sports Vice-President Chad Ca?ares.

The WHO?S NEXT? Pro Boxing Series is presented by International Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (IPI) and Omega Pro Sports International(OPSI).
