The two
veterans will contest the vacant
Universal
Boxing Organization™ (UBO)
Asia-Pacific Flyweight title in one of the
headlining fights of a show promoted by Armin
Tan at The Breeze in South Tangerang on
Indonesian island Java.
A former
Indonesian Champion, and with seventeen title
fights on his resume, Tehuayo has in recent
years plied his trade as a tough test for some
of the worlds best, and a gate-keeper for world
class prospects. This role has resulted in his
record currently being a very deceiving 20-43-2
(5).
With no
less than twenty-nine fights in Thailand against
local fighters, the coin has now been flipped as
Tehuayo will be the home-fighter against
35-year-old Pothong (30-19, 10 KOs), formerly
known as Kaichon Sor Vorapin.
Two-time
WBO Asia-Pacific titlist Pothong made his
professional debut in 2000, and five years later
traveled to Tucson, USA to challenge Mexican WBO
World Light Flyweight Champion Hugo Fidel
Cazares. He gave a good account of himself for
five rounds, before getting stopped in the
sixth.
