IBF Intercontinental super bantamweight champion Prince Albert Pagara weighed 121.8 pounds and his touted Nicaraguan opponent William “Chirizo’ Gonzalez 120.6 while IBF Youth featherweight champion Mark “Magnifico” Magsayo checked in at the same weight as his opponent Yardley Suarez at 125.4 pounds.
Their interviews, “It’s time. It’s showtime,” said the 33-year-old Nietes, who will put his WBO light-flyweight crown on the line against the obscure fighter from Mexico. “But I prepared hard for this fight. I’m excited to fight him. I like to fight here for the Filipinos. If I get the chance I will knock him out,” said Nietes. “I know Nietes is a complete boxer and he’s one of the best. But I’m also ready to put up a good fight for 12 rounds,” said the Mexican.

Albert Pagara, undefeated in 24 fights with 17 knockouts, will defend his IBF Inter-Continental super-bantamweight crown against Nicaragua’s William Gonzales. His older brother, Jason Pagara, faces Santos Benavides, also of Nicaragua, while Mark Magsayo, also young and undefeated as a pro, will have Yardley Suarez of Mexico as opponent. It will be a good fight for sure and not a sure win for Donnie against Alejo.
ALA's Aldeguer said he’s watching the fights live on SkyCable starting at 7 tomorrow morning. The feed is free of charge. “The boys are all hyped up and ready for the fights,” he said. “Their training has been great. In Manila, we find it difficult to bring over high-quality fighters on a regular basis but in the US, tough opponents are lining up for us. There are no patsies in the show. I realize it’s a gamble particularly for our unbeaten prospects but this is a test. I’ve always believed it’s better to lose early in your career than later.” What a good comment here.
