SEVEN-FIVE kilogram Francis Mark Layog of Strive Fitness Gym is the Best Boxer in the first Davao Ultimate Knockout Challenge (DUKC) last August 14 at the Elorde Davao Gym in Matina.

Layog scored a 3rd round knockout against Alfie Micole Toh of Blackhawk Gym.

Meanwhile, the fight between Gerard Sugabo of MP Davao Gym and Niel Bodionganon of Blackhawk in 51 kilos was chosen as the Best Bout.

Eighty-seven kilo John Reyes of Elorde Davao Gym was picked up as the Best Knock Out after Reyes stopped compatriot Rolando del Fierro in just 20 seconds in the 1st round.

The double main event featured Mohammad Tamaru of Elorde Davao Gym and Stevie Reggie Reyes of MP Gym from Toril as the winners.

Tamaru scored a knockout in the 2nd round against Charles Plaza of Full Impact Training Fitness Gym from Tandag City while Reyes landed powerful punches to beat Handani Ali of Blackhawk Gym by a unanimous decision in the co-main event.

DUKC was organized by gym owner Alfie Angelo Jonsay as part of the Kadayawan Festival activity with the Davao City government.

Jonsay and his wife and co-owner Karen Sanita both awarded the medals and certificate.

The tournament management is headed by Coach Rodel Garde.
