The official weigh-in for tomorrow's 12-round championship showdown between Filipino Bart Abapo and Indonesia's Daudy Bahari takes place today, with no less than PABA director-general Alan Kim in attendance.

Abapo challenges Bahari for the latter's PABA super-lightweight title in a 12-round battle at the Swissotel The Stamford in Singapore.

Abapo, who holds the Philippine 140-lb title, will be assisted in his corner by trainer Edito 'Ala' Villamor and promoter Sammy 'Don King' Gello-ani.

Bahari, who hails from Bali, Indonesia, will be assisted in his corner by his trainer-brother Pino and assistant Santo.

The 12-round event, which will be aired live on Star Sports, is being organized by Meridian Promotions.

FHM-Singapore girls have been tapped to serve as roundcard girls for the show.
