The highly-awaited boxing event set in time for the first-ever GAB Annual Boxing Convention now has a full line-up, with no less than PABA super-featherweight Jun Paderna slated to defend against Thai Kularbdang Kiatkrerin.
In the 12-round co-main event, set to steal the limelight is the RP minifly showdown between reigning champ Florante Condes against WBC-ranked Armand De la Cruz.
"This is the fight that will surely be a war," says GAB Commissioner Alex Paglumotan.
Another exciting punch-out is expected when veteran Jaime Barcelona of the Lazarito Stable goes up against up-and-coming Michael Farenas.
In an 8-round bout, Pit Anacaya takes on Brian Vicera while Reynan Dioso tangles with Cesar Balacano in the 4-round curtain-raiser.
Pound-for-pound superstar Manny Pacquiao, WBC no. 1 Rodel Mayol, and other top Filipino fighters are expected to be at ringside for the event.
