SUPER bantamweight Kenny Demecillo of Iligan City will fight again in General Santos City on April 26 as part of his comeback after two-year of absence.

Demecillo will be facing Macrea “The Barb Wire” Gandioco (13-11-3, 8KOs) of Misamis Oriental.

“It needs a little adjustment because I've been gone for a long time,” said the 29-year-old Demecillo.

Unlike in his first fight which is six rounds, Demecillo will now be fighting for 10 rounds.

Demecillo is presently at 128 pounds, six pounds over yet.

He is sparring with Jason “Smasher” Mama (16-1-0, 9KOs) and undefeated RV Deniega (6-0, 3KOs).

“I still have to try to improve,” said Demecillo.

Demecillo retired Eric Pulgo of Lanao in the 5th round last February 26, 2022 at the Sanman Gym in Gensan.
