NEWLY-CROWNED champion Romero “Ruthless” Duno was given a surrounding hero’s welcome today (March 22) in General Santos City.
Hundreds of fans, supporters and the media welcomed Duno at the Gensan International Airport.
Also present were manager Dexter “Wang Yu” Tan and his wife Tata, Sanman Promotions Chief Executive Officer Jim Claude “JC” Manangquil and John Ray Manangquil.
Duno was also welcomed by the reigning Mutya ng Gensan winners and his fellow Sanman fighters.
“I am shock with the hero’s welcome that they made for me. All the sacrifice I had made was full filling,” said Duno.
He arrived together with his trainer Rodel “Batang Mandaue” Mayol, a former world champion, who trained Duno at the Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Gym in Los Angeles, California.
“With this kind of support, it gives me more motivation to continue to work harder,” said Duno.
After a motorcade around the city, Duno also paid a courtesy call to City Mayor Rodel Rivera.
