No not in Basketball, Soccer, Baseball, Track & Field, nor even Billiards. We’re talking about BOXING! The Boxing World Cup will take place tomorrow night, Saturday, August 11th at Arco Arena in Sacramento, CA. HBO’s Boxing After Dark will televise the fights. The headliner: Mexico’s Daniel Ponce de Leon will defend his Super Bantamweight Championship Belt against Philippine’s Rey “Boom Boom” Bautista! 6 Mexicans and 6 Filipinos. We’re looking at the best fighters, pound for pound, and the biggest rivals in the boxing world.
GO PHILIPPINES! MABUHAY! MABUHAY!
I am so happy that we won. Bautista lost but we were still able to take home the trophy. This success will raise the recognition of Philippine boxing as one of the best in the world. I hope this success will continue. Ang galing ng Pinoy!
