In a press conference on Monday, January 2, 2023, Melindo said he is ready to take on an opponent who has been very active even at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.“This is the biggest fight para nako karon, kay methodical boxer versus knockout puncher. Utok gyud atong gamit ani, we will use the mind more. It’s more on the mind games,” said Melindo during the presser at the Cafe Point at the North Reclamation Area in Cebu City.
This will be Melindo’s first featherweight bout, following his comeback last year where he fought in a 130-pound bout in Mindanao.“I want the crowd to learn the science behind boxing. Ganahan ko ma frustrate ang kontra, mo undang ang kontra, mao na akong gusto makat-on sa crowd nga dili ni pareho sa sabong nga pinatyanay. Kay kita we need to be wise,” Melindo said.
The Cagayan de Oro native Melindo, a former ALA Boxing Gym stalwart, has a record of 38 wins and five defeats. The last time he fought in Cebu was in 2017 against Hekkie Budler, where he snatched the IBO world light flyweight title by split decision at the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino.
