Undefeated Kasty Flores from Misamis Oriental secured a swift knockout victory in a mere 35 seconds against Jomar Delfino from Batangas City last Sunday night, December 10, at the Unlad Gym in San Rafael 2, Noveleta, Cavite.
The 18-year-old Flores of the Yolly Alfante Boxing Gym landed a double left hook on the body of Delfino.
Delfino of Onyok Stable failed to stand up as the referee completed the mandatory count.
Flores was also happy because he won a brand new cellphone as the prize for knocking out an opponent.
"I'm really thankful for my manager Madam Yolly, " said Flores.
It was the second knockout win by Flores, a junior flyweight. He also stopped Jay Duerme in the first round last October 9 in Laguna.
Meanwhile, undefeated Junebirt Bantay of Bukidnon continued his winning ways by scoring a majority decision win against Jimboy Navidad in the main event
"I was very careful because he was also clever," said Bantay, a super bantamweight.
Bantay initiated the exchange with a left hook against Navidad, but Navidad quickly adopted and replicated the same technique employed by Bantay. So Bantay had to find another way by throwing left-right punches.
In three other bouts, Jeplex Quirante won by a unanimous decision over Jerwin Menesis, Robert Ronquillo settled à unanimous draw with Charlie Trillo while Jerry de Vera stopped Aldren Aton in the 2nd round,
Màyor Dino Reyes Chua was present to award the trophies together with Yolly Alfante of Shock Punch Boxing Promotions. Assisting them were Jimmy Vallares Jr, and matchmaker Joseph Quiro.
