This Saturday, April 20, Leyte-born Filipino boxer Armand Rebojo, who is now based in Australia, will step into the ring for his 2nd professional bout at the age of 21. With a record of 10 wins and 2 losses from his 12 amateur bouts, Rebojo brings promising credentials, bolstered by a 1-0 professional boxing record.

"Rebojo, an orthodox boxer, showcases exceptional boxing skills, speed, and power," remarked Australian Hall of Fame promoter Peter Maniatis. "His upcoming bout this Saturday promises to be an exciting display of his talent and development."

Both Rebojo and his opponent, Thailand's Watcharin Buachroen, weighed in at 53kg during the official weigh-in ceremony held Friday.

The event, taking place at St Kilda Town Hall in Melbourne, features an undercard matchup between Sanman boxer Guillaume Lorenzo, with 10 wins and 5 losses, and undefeated Melbourne boxer Jake Clague at lightweight over 6 rounds.

"This fight between Lorenzo and Clague presents a compelling 50-50 challenge," expressed Lorenzo's trainer, Paul Apolinario, exuding confidence in his fighter's readiness.

"Lorenzo, a seasoned French boxer based in General Santos, is known for his preparedness and experience," added Maniatis. "I'm always eager to promote Filipino boxers, and events like this wouldn't be possible without the support of Kings Of Kombat's Hisham Hanna, Ultratune's Mr. Sean Buckley, and IBO Asia Vice President Justin Kennedy."
