Z "The Dream" Gorres will return to action in an OPBF eliminator as he faces talented Thai fighter Wisanu Pornobnum in the main event of what will easily be Cebu's most explosive card this year dubbed "Fight for Fame" on Saturday, October 29 at the Mandaue Sports and Cultural Center in Mandaue City.
The southpaw Gorres (21-1-1, 11 KO's), the OPBF's mandatory challenger in the 115-lb division, is expected to go all out in this fight as a win cements his February crack at the title currently being held by Japan's Masayuki Arinaga.
The 8-bout card, meanwhile, is deemed to be a boxing fan's delight considering the explosive line-up of stellar matches in the undercard, starting with the RP bantam showdown between reigning champ Michael Domingo of SGG Stable who will take on Rolly Lunas in his first titular defense.
Domingo, the Sultan Kudarat wonder who dethroned Joel Bauya last July 30, will be up against the former PABA flyweight king Lunas, now with the Wakee Salud Stable.
Set to steal thunder from the other bouts is the match-up featuring the fearsome Donnie Nietes (15-1-3, 10 KO's) of SGG against ex-WBC International champ Arman De la Cruz of Bohol, who is now under the Wakee Salud Stable.
Another bout to watch pits Robert Allanic against Elorde boy and ex-WBO superfly title contender Roy Doliguez in another 10-round confrontation.
ALA Boy Rollen Del Castillo, meanwhile, is set to trade leathers with Wakee Salud's Alex Aroy in yet another 10-round affair.
The rest of the card pits Milan Melindo against Juaren Librez; Alberto Yap versus Agie Marapao; and ALA Boy Rashied Bacus versus Tantay Recablanca.
