The only update I got so far is from Corazon Gello-ani, wife of promoter Sammy Gello-ani, who is here in Cebu. She said he received a call from her husband telling her that they are out of harm's way but they suffered bruises and trainer Pingping Tepora was apparently cut on the head. No apparent injury on the new IBF lt.flyweight champion Johnriel Casimero.
Gello-ani told his wife they will try to savor this victory considering the circumstances. Casimero stopped Luis Alberto Lazarte of Argentina in the 10th to win the title vacated by the injured Ulises Solis. An ugly riot, whose video is on the net, ensued.
