Sarguilla Wins in Thailand

Romshane “Hammer” Sarguilla Scores TKO Win in Thailand

By Carlos Costa

BANGKOK, Thailand — In fast and electrifying fashion, Filipino super flyweight Romshane “Hammer” Sarguilla dropped and hammered his opponent Xolieng Souvannaphakdy, 26, for a round one non-title TKO win Thursday, November 30, at the luxurious SpacePlus Night Club, RCA Plaza, in Bangkok, Thailand.

From the sound of the first bell, the confident 29-year-old Pinoy from Midsayap, Cotabato del Norte, threw heavy artillery at his foe, landing on him with variety of damaging blows, rocking him, not giving him a second to think.

Still, the brave Xiolieng tried to retaliate, but Sarguilla’s defense was equally effective, avoiding being hammered himself.

Near the end of the first chapter, the Filipino moved-in into a striking distance of Xiolieng, landing on him a crushing left hook to his liver, followed by a right bomb to his chin, as you may see in the photo.

The devastating one-two attack completely disassembled Xiolieng, depositing him down to the canvas in obvious pain, forcing the third man to waive the battle off.

After the fast and exciting win, Romshane “Hammer” Sarguilla (10-7-2, 7 KO’s), feels more-than-ready for more action in the super flyweight division.

Sarguilla’s triumph was a promotion of Highland Boxing Promotions, live in Thailand on MV TV.

Video of Sardilla’s TKO win tonight in Bangkok can be watched from the promoter’s YouTube channel.

Congratulations Sarguilla!
