Filipino former world-ranked warrior Adrian Lerasan (12-5, 5 KO's) returns to action against Indian fighter Sidhant Lakhera (3-1, 1 KO) in another exciting Highland Boxing Show set for July 27 at the flashy Spaceplus Bangkok, RCA Plaza, in the Kingdom of Thailand.

The collision is Lerasan's first battle after being stopped in 5 rounds by hard-hitting world-title challenger Ricardo Malajika (11-2, 9 KO's), last March in South Africa, with fans wondering if the 24-year-old Lerasan is up to the task.

The rumble also marks Adrian Lerasan's return to fighting in Thailand, the boxing-loving Kingdom where he astonishingly delivered 4 consecutive stoppage wins over tough Thai adversaries.

It was a record-setting feat for a Pinoy boxer in Thailand. Could Lerasan retake his thrilling winning form?

In addition, the battle will also be the first time that the 23-year-old Sidhant Lakhera fights outside of his native India.

Will the young Lakhera take the golden opportunity to claim the biggest win of his young boxing career?

The scheduled "Adrian Lerasan vs Sidhant Lakhera" will take place as a non-title, 6-chapter war in the Super Bantamweight division.



The exciting show billed as "Way of the Champions: Clash of Titans" unfolds on Thursday, July 27, at SpacePlus Bangkok is a production of promoters Supanat Chanram and Brico Santig of Highland Boxing Promotions.

The live action can be watched from the Promoter's Facebook Page and YouTube Channel.

The first bout starts at 3 PM in Thailand (in the Philippines 4 PM).

May the Best Man Win!
