World Slasher-2 finals at Big Dome today

Ricky ­Tulipat - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines – The Smart Araneta Coliseum will jolt as 2016 World Slasher Cup-2 8-Cock Invitational Derby grand finalists pound the dome with explosive world-class fights as they battle for the title.

Joey Sy, World Slasher Cup-2 defending solo champion, is pushing a very strong campaign with partners Noel Jarin and Antonio Bautista (Pit Viper Hyper B12) as he clutches a perfect score of four points to the grand finals.

However, fellow contenders with 4 perfect points and former world slasher cup champions, who seek to regain the title, like Gov. Eddie Bong Plaza and Gov. Claude Bautista (CPB AAO), threaten to sabotage Sy’s campaign.

Plaza rams his campaign with at least two undefeated partnership entries, namely EP RJM PTM with RJ Mea and ESJ EP Tarlac with Elwin Javelosa.

Other contenders with four perfect points who challenge Sy’s claim to the title include Greg Atienza (Rooster Camp/One Capiz); Itoy Sison/Willart Ty/Ricky Magtuto (JVS Ahluck CamSur); J. Mendoza/J. delos Santos/RJ Mea/Gov. Plaza (JM EP JDLS RJM); VG Lacson/Coun. Juris Sucro (Manila Teachers Partylist by VG Lacson/Juris Sucro); Ricky Magtuto (Ahluck CamSur); Engr. Nerio Frani/Jun David (Goldwin 585 & Crystal Water); and D. Hinlo/RJ Mea (DVH RJM Excellence).

Former world slasher cup champion Rep. Patrick Antonio (Sagupaan Mite-Free) and other contenders with 3.5 points, like Ka Ador Pleyto (Cela’s Rice Mill); Magno Lim/Gary Tesorero (ML G63); Mayor Egay Capuchino (Deong Arc Farm Oliver-1); and Leo Bernardino/Arif Dembong (Toraja Bustos-333) threaten to foil Sy’s campaign to capture the title anew.
