will fight Jojo Rodrigo of General Santos City for the
third time tonight (June 16) at the Almendras gym
here.

Alcos, ranked International Boxing Federation (IBF)

already. In their last encounter, the 21-year old
Alcos knocked out Rodrigo in 2:25 of the sixth round
last January 14 at the Maasim gym in Maasim, Sarangani
Province.

Boxing Federation (PBF) bantamweight champion Edward
Apa-ap against Ronald Postrano of Butuan, ex-RP

It will also feature the PBF junior lightweight
title-fight between Davao's Anton Olarte and Butuan's
Rico Genon.
