Former world title challenger Rodel Mayol?s return to the ring before his hometown fans in Cebu will be featured on the top-rated weekly boxing show ?The Main Event? on Sunday at 9:00 p.m. over IBC 13.
Mayol put on an impressive performance on the fight card dubbed ?BACK ON TRACK? staged by well-known promoter Sammy Gello-ani and sponsored by Tanduay, the No.1 Rhum and PAGCOR, the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation.
Watching intently at special ringside were Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao, his charming wife Jinkee who was introduced as the manager of Mayol and Pacquiao?s close friend and confidant Rex ?Wakee? Salud.
At the end of the fight the TV panelists interviewed Pacquiao and Mayol.
Another attraction on the fight card were the three Cebu-based round girls who were a hit with the fans.
