wow, this is the first hi-profile fight where both fighters are filipinos. should be a great night for boxing. melindo is undefeated in 27 pro fights. villoria will definitely be up against very stiff competition.

Melindo is not on the level yet of Viloria. Internationally he's still unknown. A fight with Roman Gonzales is more attractive and is the big money fight. Milan should seek an overseas fight first to prove his worth, provably against Igarashi of Japan or Juan Carlos Reveco of Mexico..

melindo is not ready for viloria..don't get me wrong ..i think he's the most impressive pinoy prospect out there but he needs more experience against top level opponents ..at this point of his career ,he'd get destroyed by viloria..don't want to see thi fight .

hope to see Viloria fight another top level fighter. tho melindo is really a good fighter but i dont want to see Filipinos fighting each other....

Who cares if they're both Filipinos. Mexicans fight each other all the time.

The WBO's #1 and #2 are both Filipinos, so it may be an all Filipino title fight regardless of what Viloria decides. Melindo and Rocky Fuentes both deserve title shots IMO, and that would be a good matchup.(WBO'S #1 and #5)

WORD!!!! if filipinos want to get to the next level they got to fight each other. Mexicans weed each other out thats why they are the best.
