Undefeated prospect Harmonito dela Torre (11W-0L, 6 KO's) of Gen. Santos City is set for his second appearance in Macau this February 22 when he faces Yakobus Heluka (7W-5L) of Indonesia on the undercard of Ring of Gold - Zou Shiming vs. Yokthong Kokietgym. Last November, the 19 year old Dela Torre knocked out another Indonesian, Jason Butarbutar in three rounds.
Dela Torre is now in Macau with manager Jim Claude Manangquil. Heluka won three straight bouts last year in Indonesia before losing this year in Japan to Takuya Watanabe. Dela Torre campaigns as a superfeatherweight and won the Philippine Boxing Federation (PBF) 130 lb division title last year by unanimous decision against Richard Olisa.
The other Filipino boxers listed in this fight card are Marvin Sonsona and Jerwin Ancajas who will be fighting Akifumi Shimoda of Japan and Inthanon Sithchamuang of Thailand respectively.
