Pictured: WBO Asia Pacific and Oriental mini-flyweight champion Vic Saludar


During the seven-day period of Friday, October 28 through Thursday, November 3, three boxers ranked by the participating members of TTR as being among the best currently fighting in their respective divisions were in action. All three, Vic Saludar, Cesar Juarez, and Tatsuya Fukuhara, won.

In addition, Kanat Islam, Cristian Mijares, and Francisco Rodriguez, Jr. scored victories which may propel them into TTR's rankings. Shohei Kawashima, despite his loss to Mijares, was impressive. He may be one win away from entering TTR's rankings in the near future.
