Paradero to face Mama in Cotabato

Orthodox Robert “Inggo” Paradero of Malaybalay will face Jayson “Smasher” Mama of General Santos City in 10-rounds on June 6 in Polomolok, South Cotabato

“I going to give them a good fight for their promotion,” said Paradero.

The 26-year-old Paradero is scheduled to be in Polomolok on June 4 together with coach Jojo Singsong.

In his last outing, Paradero lost to Gcina Makhoba of South Africa by a unanimous decision for the vacant WBF World super flyweight title last December 3, 2022, in Dundee.

Paradero is still training in Malaybalay together with amateur boxers. Paradero has lost four of his last five fights since 2021.

“I’m going to shock them, and I’m going to recover from my failures,” said Paradero.

Mama, on the other hand, has 18 wins with 10 knockouts against one loss.

The 26-year-old Mama recently retired Crison Omayao of Valencia City in the 4th round last December 31, 2022, in Tagum City.

The boxing event is promoted by Sanman Promotions, headed by JC Manangquil. (Lito delos Reyes/PhilBoxing.com)
