Balajadia, Atencio in Action in Thailand

Jason Balajadia, Leboy Atencio Gear Up for Highland Boxing Action July 25 in Thailand

Filipino boxers Jason Balajadia of Gensan and Leboy Atencio of Northern Samar gear up for action in the coming Highland Boxing Promotions show this coming Thursday, July 25, at the plush SpacePlus Night Club, RCA Plaza, in Bangkok, Kingdom of Thailand.

The tough Jason Balajadia (4-1, 3 KO’s) from beautiful General Santos City is set to battle former MMA fighter Kushal “The Maniac” Vyas of Amravati, India, in a non-title six round clash in the welterweight division.

His fight against “The Maniac” will be Jason Balajadia’s return to the square ring after a nearly two years hiatus.

In 2022, Jason scored back to back wins, but went into silent mode ever since. On Thursday Jason Balajadia will be climbing up the ring again, wanting to extend his winning streak.

Meanwhile, the 32-year-old “Maniac” from India will be making third pro-boxing fight against the Pinoy Balajadia.

The Maniac has a wide experience as MMA fighter, but his experience in boxing is limited. He has fought only two times as a pro boxer, both of them defeats. However, that does not mean that the Indian fighter is not dangerous.

Will the Jason Balajadia be able to dominate and defeat the Indian warrior? Or will it be the experienced “Maniac” the one to shock and beat the Gensan fighter?

LEBOY ATENCIO VS WISITSAK SAIWAEW IN BANTAMWEIGHT ACTION

Leboy Atencio wanting to score a win too.

Focused Warai Bantamweight Warrior Leboy Atencio (3-1, 0 KO’s), born in paradisiacal Northern Samar, will have the mission of trading blows against more-experienced 30-year-old Thai boxer, former Muay Thai combatant Wisitsak Saiwaew (a.k.a. Saksith Yutthana Chaiyong Gym) of Sisaket, Thailand.

Their impeding rumble is a non-title, six chapter war in the 118-pound weight-class.

Billed as “Future Champions,” the 19-bout show at the SpacePlus Night Club in Bangkok, Thailand, is a promotion of Supanat Chanram and Brico Santig of Highland Boxing Promotions.

Fans outside Thailand may watch the event LIVE for free from the YouTube Channel of Highland Boxing Promotions or the Facebook page of Highland Boxing Gym.

The bell for the first bout will sound at 2 pm Thailand Time (3 pm in the Philippines).

May the Best Men Win!
