DAVAO CITY -- Southpaw Edison "Kamatis" Berwela of Muntinlupa City will fight orthodox Daisuke Sugita of Japan for the World Boxing Association Asia super bantamweight title at the Sunworld Dynasty Hotel in Taipei, Taiwan.
The 36-year old Berwela (18W-42L-8D, 6KO) scored two wins out of three in 2019.
Berwela started by retiring Dado Cabintoy of Paranaque in the 7th round last March 8 in Angono, Rizal then beat by a unanimous decision over Zoren Pama of Cebu last Aug. 3 in Paranaque City.
