Jake Amparo of PMI Bohol Boxing Stable will fight in the main event on June 24 in Bilar, Bohol. Amparo last challenged for the world title against International Boxing Federation (IBF) world minimumweight champion Ginjiri Shigeoka in Japan.


The 26-year-old Amparo was defeated by Shigeoka due to lack of preparation since he was late replacement to ArAr Andales who withdrew from the fight.

Amparo will clash with JC Francisco of Valenzuela City in an eight-rounder non-title bout. Amparo has 14 wins with six losses, one draw, and three knockouts, while Francisco is 8-16-6 with three knockouts. Francisco also is on a three-fight losing streak since 2018.
