Undefeated Philippine bamtanweight prospect Jundy Maraon of Zamboanga who is now based in Salinas, CA returns to ring action this June 14 on ESPN's Friday Night Fights, Maraon's US-based handler Vinny Scolpino has informed Philboxing.

Maraon (15-0-1, 12KO) will face another undefeated fighter in Juan Carlos Payano (13-0-0, 7KO) of the Dominican Republic at the South Mountain Arena in South Orange, New Jersey.

Maraon, who is currently training at Nonito Donaire Snr's gym in Salinas, CA, last saw action on Sep. 9, 2012 against American Ernie Marquez at the Chumash Casino in Santa Ynez, CA where the Zamboangeno bomber stopped Marquez in the 3rd round.

Scolpino said this will be an exciting fight for the fans as both Maraon and Payano are undefeated but expressed his confidence on Maraon pulling the W as he said "Payano's style is perfect for Maraon."
