Francisco faces Paradero in Vigan

Top flyweight prospect Albert Francisco battles veteran Robert Paradero for the Philippine Boxing Federation crown on 12 February when Manny Pacquiao Presents: Blow-By-Blow stages a big show in Vigan, Ilocos Sur.

In the main supporting bout, world-rated Ar-Ar Andales of Sanman Boxing-General Santos City faces Reymark Alicaba of Highland Boxing Gym of Baguio in another major flyweight clash.

There will be 13 more matches on tap as Blow-By-Blow continues to fulfill its mission of lending a helping hand to Filipino fighters.

Now on its third year, Blow-By-Blow was revived in late-2022 with Marife Barrera supervising the operations and Art Monis taking care of the matchmaking.

Since its revival, the weekly television show on Cignal’s ONE Sports channel has held cards in General Santos City, Passi (Iloilo), Imus, Narvacan and Sablayan in Occidental Mindoro as well as in main cities in Metro Manila.
