Sonsona Ready For First Title Defense This Saturday Night; West Added To Bradley-Peterson Card
Reigning WBO Junior Bantamweight champion “Marvelous” Marvin Sonsona (14-0, 12 KO’s) and his opponent Alejandro “Payasito” Hernandez (22-7-1, 11 KO’s) of Mexico City promised a war this Saturday night as the main event of Rumble at Rama X at Casino Rama, in Rama, Ontario. The 19 year-old Sonsona, who captured the crown against Jose “Carita” Lopez this past September via thrilling 12 round unanimous decision, promised to once again treat Ontario fight fans to another scintillating performance. “When I first fought here in September, I was treated so well, and welcomed so warmly that I wanted to deliver a great performance to my new fans in Ontario..”
Philippine TV coverage will be on November 22 ( R.P. Time) courtesy of Solar Sports and GMA.
Thanks for this, I did forget he was defending the title tomorrow. Sonsona needs to win so the vasquez jr/ sonsona bout happens...
dammmnnnnnnn f ing child suppor ti skillin g me... I got one more trip in me to the Phils hehehe
I thought so too but sonsona is a very young fighter he probably recuperates very fast.
It will be a very good fight. Vazquez jr will have to fight a smart fight to take sonsona down.
I think sonsona's power could be the difference. I wish I could go to manila to watch and support Vasquez and visit some friends hehe.
