Oriental Pacific Boxing Federation (OPBF) lightweight champion Dennis Laurente will display his wares among fight fans who is expected to pack the Elorde gym to get a closer glimpse of the champ. Laurentes opponent, Ferdinan of Indonesia will do light workouts and will pose for photographers.
Meanwhile, Fernando Sagrado is also ready to face Australian Jeff Malcolm and predicted the bout will not last the distance. The two fighters will clash for the WBA-Pan Asia welterweight championship.
According to Johnny Elorde, promoter of the fights, what may steal the show is the encounter between Bobby Pacquiao against Renato Inal for the vacant Phil. Jr. Lightweight Championship. Bobby, younger brother of IBF World champion Manny Pacquiao, will get his brothers advice at ringside. Manny, fresh from a win last Sunday, when he defended his IBF crown, promised to be at ringside on Saturday and give all the support to his brother.
Fight fans who will be coming on Saturday are urged to come early as first bell will start at exactly 5 p.m.
