MANILA, Philippines–After its smashing staging of a world title fight last month, Manny Pacquiao Presents: Blow-By-Blow returns Sunday with a slambang card headlined by the clash for the vacant Orient-Pacific Boxing Federation (OPBF) super flyweight crown at Okada Manila.
Bannered by the scheduled 12-rounder featuring one-time world title challenger Giemel Magramo of the Johnny Elorde Boxing Stable against Judy Flores of Sanman Boxing of General Santos City, the show will also have fast-rising lightweight Eman Bacosa in a six-rounder.

“I am confident that this Sunday’s event will match or even surpass the excitement generated by our world championship fight held in Mandaluyong where Melvin Jerusalem made the successful defense of his WBC minimumweight title against mandatory challenger Luis Castillo of Mexico,” he said.
The 30-year-old Magramo (28-4, 23KOs) challenged for the WBO flyweight belt against Japan’s Junto Nakatani in November 2020 in Tokyo. The undefeated Nakatani, who is now the WBC bantamweight titleholder, stopped Magramo in the eighth round.
Magramo last fought seven months ago when he beat compatriot Denmark Quibido by unanimous decision.
Blow-By-Blow, which turns two years old next month, is being run by Marife Barrera with veteran boxing man Art Monis taking care of the matchmaking.
