MAKATI, Metro Manila -- All fighters successfully made weight for Saturday's WBA title battles, scaling-in exactly at the limit of their divisions.
In the intriguing main event, unbeaten world-ranked ArAr "Asero" Andales (9-0, 2 KO's) of the Quibors Boxing Gym stepped-in at 105 lbs for the first defense of his WBA Asia Minimumweight Title against taller, more-experienced southpaw Cris Ganoza (17-2, 8 KO's) of Cebu's Big Yellow Stable, who also scaled-in at hundred five pounds for the well-matched 10-rounder collision. The rumble is undoubtedly a very tough mission for both men.
During the official weigh-in ceremony staged today at the Games and Amusement Board (GAB) head office in Makati, the two warriors looked focused and in excellent physical shape, both gunning for a victory in a battle that not only involves Asian WBA minimumweight supremacy, but also a berth in the WBA world rankings.

CO-FEATURE: DAGAYLOAN DEFENDS 112 TITLE AGAINST DOMINGO
In the ten-rounder co-feature, tough man "The Bull" Alphoe Dagayloan (12-2-5, 5 KO's) of Dipolog looked in top condition for the first defense of his WBA Asia Flyweight strap against 20-year-old attacker Esneth Domingo (11-0, 6 KO's) from the famed Cebu's ALA Gym.

Both men weighing-in at identical 112 pounds, and can't wait to climb the ring for combat 💥💥
Dagayloan is taller, has longer wingspan, and is trained by head coach Labandia. He also has more fights than Domingo, he is a confusing hard-to-figure-out southpaw, and has won by KO in Russia.
In contrast, Esneth Domingo is undefeated in eleven combats. He is also very well-prepared by his knowledgeable and popular ever-smiling uncle Michael "Bruce Lee" Domingo at the ALA Gym. In addition, Esneth is a 100% confident unbeaten boxer seven years younger than his bigger foe, and Esneth wants to take Dagayloan's title to Cebu ⭐️⭐️ Who would be able to do it..?? ☀️🥊👍
MORE FIGHTS
Also seeing action is 20-year-old Quibors featherweight Rustom Doronio (4-1-1, 3 KO's), scaling-in at 125 pounds for his war against 126-pounder Wilford D. Wade (5-2-2, 2 KO's) from the beautiful northern Mindanao City of Iligan in Lanao del Norte Province.
The battle marks Wilford Wade's return to the square ring after an almost 4-year hiatus; making fans wonder if the 29-year-old Mindanao man will show severe ring rust or not, and how his distance will be?
In contrast, Doronio has been active, scoring a draw in his last rumble last January. The Doronio-Wade fight story is a 6-chapter unpredictable saga. Who will come out victorious?
In welterweights, Weljon Mindoro of the Quibors Stable recorded 145 lbs for his very first pro fight; while his opponent, unheralded Jerry Kalaw (0-12) of Lipa City, Bantangas, stepped-in five pounds heavier at 150 pounds. Their duel is a four-stanza symphony of leather that might not go the distance.
