Boxer Rey Boom Bautista Humiliates Eden "Anestesista" Marquez

Taking advantage of the Mexican challenger's vulnerable stance in the first round, home-grown super bantamweight Rey "Boom-Boom" Bautista found the second round to be the best time to finish the bout, with him still clutching the WBO title in the last night's match at Cebu City Waterfront Hotel and Casino, his 26th win in 27 fights. 

Bautista realized that the first round was too slow that he had to catch up with the aggressive Mexican challenger Eden "Anestesista" Marquez.

Starting slow, Bautista threw only two punches in the first round.

So he made up in the second round and must have overdone it that he sent Marquez on the canvas by a technical knockout .

The dizzy Mexican stood up at the eighth count only to suffer another knockdown at Bautista's release of a hard right hook to the head.

This forced referee Bruce McTavish to stop the bout just over a minute remaining in the second round.

Before Marquez, Bautista had already defeated two Mexican warriors as he defended his regional belt, wining against Antonio Meza via unanimous decision in December 8 last year and knocked out Genaro Camargo in the second round of their battle last April 6.

Antonio Ong Guat, the founder of Bohol Quality Store

From Sunday Post   I pay my sincerest condolences to Antonio Ong Guat, the founder of Bohol Quality Store . My family especially my late Mom owed a lot of gratitude to him. Little is known of the fact that my Mom as a school teacher, was making school teaching charts with her crude rubber printing set. I used to accompany her to Tagbilaran to buy her supplies at Bohol Quality Store, and bought her supplies direct from Ong Guat. Suki niya si Ong Guat to the point that he would attend to her when she goes to the store. In fact, nagpapautang pa siya ni Mom, which she paid when she sold her teaching materials to the new teachers. I suggest that the provincial and city governments should honor Ong Guat with a posthumous award in recognition of his efforts to be the founder of a business empire in Bohol, which has presently employed thousands of Boholanos presently. I think everybody agrees that his store sparked business to its fullest heights today. Fred Ong and his wife Babs Gonzaga we...

No More NPA Rebels in Bohol

The communist insurgency in Bohol has been crushed, making it as the first province in the country to meet the deadline set by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo before she steps down in June 2010, according to the Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process (OPAPP). The deadline is to defeat the left-leaning New People's Army (NPA). The declaration was made by Bohol Governor Erico B. Aumentado and Col. Allan Luga, commander of the 802nd Brigade of the Philippine Army based on the island province some 600 kilometers south of Manila. OPAPP said Aumentado made the announcement during a meeting at the Bohol Tropics Resort last Tuesday. The session was attended by a delegation from Columbia's Office of the High Commissioner for Peace led by Alejandro Eder, political advisor of the Office of the High Presidential Counselor for Reintegration. Other members of the Columbian delegation were Miguel Suarez, Ms. Maria Lucia Uepigue and Ms. Andrea Salazar. While in Bohol, they...
