RP vs Mexico, the saga continues

Filipino boxing fighters and Mexican warriors are ready to rumble on September 10, 2011 at Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino, Lahug, Cebu City. This is the eight installment of the "Pinoy Pride" series as the Philippines and Mexico rivalry in the boxing ring continues.

"This is the first time in Philippine boxing history that we will have three Mexicans coming here to fight," said ALA Promotions president Michael Aldeguer during a news conference last August 9 with The Freeman at the Cebu Grand Hotel.

Unknown Genesis Servania (14-0, 5KOs), a super bantamweight will take his luck in his first card debut as he faces long time stager Gerson "El Nene" Guerro (34-8, 26KOs).
