Together with other members of Team Cuello, they talked about boxing and Cuello?s upcoming world title challenge on Friday against WBC strawweight champion Xiong Zhao Zhong of China. Consul Cimafranca, who hails from Bohol, is also an avid boxing fan and his father is a former amateur boxer. Jaro extended his invitation to watch Denver?s fight.
