Highland Boxing Promotions, the outfit of enthusiastic Filipino man of boxing Brico Santig, in association with Thai boxing promoter Supanat Chanram proudly present their newest international boxing event featuring exciting new thrilling fighters from Japan, the Philippines, China, Thailand and India this coming Sunday night (July 8) at Ram 100 Thai Boxing Stadium in the heavily touristic District of Ramkamhaeng in Bangkok, Kingdom of Thailand.

In one of the attractive main battles, cute Filipina fight girl Jessebelle Pagaduan (9-1, 4 KO's) from the Summer Capital of the Philippines, Baguio City, battles Thai warrior woman Saranyaphong Theinthong of Bangkok in a hot 6-rounder in the lighting-fast jr. flyweight division.

The beautiful Baguio princess Jessebelle has only lost one time in her fighting career, a setback three years ago in Osaka, Japan. Since then, she has stayed on the positive side. In her mind, Jessebelle hasn't flown from the Philippines to Thailand for a loss, though her fight is not easy as her Thai opponent is a proven combat woman ready to engage rough.

In addition, unbeaten 19 year-old Japanese flyweight Ryo Hashiya of Osaka will lock horns against more experienced Thai fighter Detnarong Omkrathok of Chachoengsaoin an heated 8-rounder that might not last the distance.

Plus, big super middleweight Gaganpreet Sharma (5-1, 2 KO's) of Chandigarh, India, will give rematch to former muay thai combatant Odisorn Kesornsombat. Their 6-round battle promises to be another action-packed encounter.

Moreover, undefeated Chinese welterweight Zhen Li will collide in an eight-stanza battle against tough 20 year-old Thai Natthaphon Numnak.

Also seeing action is tough 23 year-old Indian warrior girl Urvashi Singh (2-0, 2 KO's) will collide against Thai fight woman Sumalee Tongpootorn. Their 8-chapter war is in the bantamweight division, and both battling women want the win.

Plus, 22 year-old featherweight Kamal Singh (1-0, 1 KO) of New Delhi, India, is set to see action as well, against 17 year-old figthing maching Pongpasin Chulerd of Samut Prakan, a province just nearby the capital Bangkok.

The evening of pro boxing at Ram 100 Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Kingdom of Thailand, is a production of the very active Filipino promoter Brico Santig (winner of this years's WBC Oriental Promoter of the Year), in association Thai promoter Supanat Chanram and the Naris Singwancha Foundation.
