Phoobadin vs Metuda for the WBA Asia Super Lightweight Titile Sep 3 in Bangkok
By Carlos Costa
BANGKOK, Thaiand — The Filipino “Terminator” Rimar Metuda (15-6-1, 9 KO’s) who hails from the beautiful sun-bathed Filipino Island-Province of Caminguin can’t wait to challenge unbeaten 18-year-old WBA Asia Super Lightweight Champion Phoobadin Yoohanngoh (14-0, 9 KO’s) in a clash of titans scheduled for Saturday, September 3 at the plush Tony Chen’s SpacePlus Night Club in Bangkok, Kingdom of Thailand.
The popular, hard-swinging Thai champ Phoobadin (a.k.a. Sangarthit Looksaikongdin) – who comes from a big family of 15 children, all of them, including father, in the boxing world – has victimised and stopped his last 5 opponents, including Cebuano fighter Elmo “Bisdak” Traya (12-4, 8 KO’s) of Mandaue, whom the rough Thai stopped in two.
Thirsty for more, Phoobadin now wants the head of The Caminguin warrior.
Will he get it? Or is the Thai on for the biggest surprise of his life?
The Filipino “Terminator” Rimar Metuda aims to follow up on the recent fantastic successes of Filipino fighters of the Highland Boxing Team in Thailand, including the awesome wins of Pinoy warriors Adrian Lerasan, John Michael Zulueta and Herlan Gomez.
The “Phoobadin vs Metuda” 10-rounder main event clash for the WBA Asia Super Lightweight strap will air live on Thailand’s Workpoint TV Channel 23 at 2:00 PM Thailand Time (UTC + 7).
Fans outside Thailand may watch the show live for free from the official website of Workpoint TV. Link here:
