PASIG CITY -- WBO world flyweight champion Brian Viloria of Waipahu, Hawaii and challenger Omar Nino Romero of Guadalajara, Mexico came in at the 112 lbs each on their first try, the flyweight limit, during the official weighin held at the Discovery Suites Hotel this morning. Viloria will defend his title against Romero tomorrow (Sunday morning in Manila / Saturday night in North America) at the Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig City. This is the third meeting between Viloria (30-3-0, 17KO) and Romero (31-4-2, 13KO) where Romero won the first fight and the second fight was declared a no contest after Romero failed the post fight drug test.
