De La Torre.

Unbeaten Filipino Harmonito ?Hammer?? Dela Torre is now the sparring mate of reigning world super bantamweight champion GFuillermo ?The Jackal? Rigondeaux who is prepared to defend one of his three world titles- The WBA super bantamweight crown against James Dickens in the Ice Arena in Cardiff, Wales on July 16.

The manager of Dela Torre, Jim Claude ?JC? Mannangquil informed The Standared that according to Dela Torres? coach Osmin ?More? Fernandez, the promising Filipino boxer did well in sparring against the former Cuban Olympian who has an impressive victory over Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire to his name.

Manangquil said sparring against ?this type of top-caliber fighter is a good learning experience.?

Rigondeaux is undefeated with a record of 16-0 with 10 knockouts while Dela Torre has an unblemished record of 18-0 with 12 knockouts.

Dela Torre is scheduled to spar again on Thursday, Manila Time, at Moro?s Gym in Miami.
