20-year old Filipino prospect Elmo ?Bisdak? Traya who has a record of 11 with 8 knockouts battles undefeated Przemyslaw Runowsk with a record of 11-0 with 2 knockouts of Poland this Sunday, Manila Time at the Amfiteatr in Miedzyzdroje for the WBC Youth Intercontinental Super lightweight title.

Traya arrived inPoland last Tuesday together with trainer and former world bantamweight contender Michael Domingo.

Domingo said that despite his fighter?s first fight abroad, Traya did not have to adjust to the country?s climate and is so far looking great for his fight this weekend.

Domingo in a message to The Standard said ?The cold weather feels just right. Elmo feels comfortable, and is looking forward for his fight.?

Traya is coming off a majority decision win over tough Romeo Jakosalem last February 27 in an eight round super lightweight bout at the Waterfront Hotel and Casino last February 27.
