Rey “Boom Boom” Bautista redeemed himself by winning against the Indonesian boxer, Marangin Marbun last Saturday at Cebu City, Philippines. The said win made him to gain the interim WBC (World Boxing Council) International champion title and making his records to be 27-2-0 with 20 KOs.

Here’s an excerpt of a report regarding the said fight:

After some rusty moments in the first two rounds Bautista found his mark and floored Marabun with a stiff left jab in the fourth.

Marabun recovered and gave Bautista tense moments in the succeeding rounds by hitting the Bohol native with good uppercuts and right straights.

Bautista however came back strong and ended the bout as he hit Marabun with three succeeding jabs that sent the Indon reeling towards the canvass.

In seeing Marabun badly hurt referee Bruce McTavish decided not to complete his count and waived of the match at 1:25 of the 7th round. Source: GMANews.TV
