UNBEATEN SALVA TO FIGHT PRONCO FOR VACANT MINPROBA MINIMUMWEIGHT TITLE IN ILIGAN OCT. 15

UNDEFEATED Samuel “Silent Assassin” Salva of Iligan City will be fighting Lester “The Silent Penetrator” Pronco of Malaybalay, Bukidnon for the vacant Mindanao Professional Boxing Association (MinPROBA) minimumweight title on October 15 at 3 p.m. at the Robinson’s Place Iligan.
The 10-round title fight is one of the exciting bouts of the “Fist of Fury 2” boxing card promoted by Raffy Jimenez of RCJ Promotions.
Salva is still unbeaten with 10 straight wins and six knockouts while Pronco is toting 9 wins, 15 losses, 1 draw and 6 KOs.
The 20-year old Salva has beaten former Philippine champion Donny Mabao twice in his last two fights this year.
He first won by a unanimous decision against Mabao on May 31 at the Barangay Santa Filomena covered court in Iligan City.
Salva made sure his early win was not a fluke by stopping Mabao already via an 8th round technical knockout on August 6 at the same venue.
Pronco, on the other hand, lost by a unanimous decision to Orlie Silvestre in his last fight held July 24 in Koronadal City.
MinPROBA president Engr. Jilson Basang will be gracing the boxing event sponsored by Iligan City Mayor Celso Regencia, Vice Mayor Jemar Vera Cruz, the City Government and Sen. Manny Pacquiao.
