Former ALA boxer Esneth Domingo will get a break for worldwide recognition when he shoots for the vacant World Boxing Organization (WBO) Global flyweight title against dangerous opponent Michael Bravo in the main event of the fights co-promoted by Elorde UKC Promotions, Knuckleheads Boxing, Sanman Promotions and ZIP Sanman on December 18, 2023, to happen at The Flash Ballroom of the Elorde Sports Center in Parañaque City.

Domingo's uncle and presently his trainer Michael Domingo was also a former ALA Gym standout. If Domingo wins over Bravo he could earn a position in the flyweight rankings of the WBO and could open the door to a world title shot against present WBO world titleholder Jesse Rodriguez.

Domingo of Lebak, Sultan Kudarat lost to Alphoe Dagayloan by unanimous decision in a World Boxing Association Asia flyweight title fight in Cavite.
