Filipino Alphoe Dagayloan (11-2-5, 5 KO's) impressively stopped strong Chinese foe Rongguo Wu (6-2-2, 2 KO's) in the 6th round to capture the vacant WBA Asia East Flyweight Title Saturday (Oct 27) at Quibors Boxing Gym in Bacoor, Cavite; a victory that might get the Dipolog native into the world rankings.

Thrill of Victory. After knocking out the Chinese, the new WBA Asia East Champion Alphoe Dagayloan celebrates with team members and fans Saturday in Bacoor Cavite.
