Filipino boxers bounce back in international outing

By Leobert Julian A. de la Peña

 

Jameson Bacon and Mark Bernaldez kept their promise to revamp themselves after disappointing losses in their international boxing stints.

This time, the result swung the Filipinos’ side after both eager fighters put their respective foes to sleep.

Bacon only needed two rounds to trample Gonzalo Carlos Dallera in their highly-anticipated welterweight showdown.

It was also the Filipino’s debut battle in the United States and gave a great impression after putting on a clinic against Carlos Dallera.

Meanwhile, Bernaldez handled Julian Aristule in three rounds to mimic Bacon’s performance with a knockout.

Aristule had a solid second round which turned out to even the scorecards but the third round was totally controlled by the prized boxer from General Santos City.

Both fighters are under Sanman, a boxing agency based in the Philippines headed by JC Manangquil.
