Even so, how did those relationships start? Don't think I've ever heard Filipino's and Slovenian's in the same sentence

Haha this Slovenian went to a lot of pinoy-hosted Pacquiao fight parties back in the 2000s.

But it’s a fair question - article in The Ring, per google, says his Slovene manager was managing a football team over there, that’s how they linked up.

Both guys are holding - both guys are trying to land one shot and then tie up. Ugly mix of styles.

4-2 Gonzalez

[PBR Streetgang]

4-2 Bomba. Alot of these rounds are razor close tho.

Crazy! That's an awesome story lol

How tiny is this ring?? I've never seen a ring look small with 108 lb'ers in it

This has to be the smallest ring allowed (18 feet?), when they show the overhead view you can really appreciate how small it is.

Rounds getting ugly now, 4-3 Gonzalez

I want someone to walk out there with a tape measure, I'm not convinced it isn't 16 feet

Man if I was there live, I’d be headed to the car right about now.

Another round I shade towards even but slightly edge Bomba. 5-2.
