The difference in terms of experience was very evident right off the bat as the 31-year-old native of Sawata, Davao del Norte easily imposed his will, firing heavy blows in rapid-fire succession. Seeing his foe struggling to regain balance, Suarez put him down once more with a clobbering right. Although the Myanmar-based boxer managed to beat the 10-count on shaky legs, the referee elected to wave it off as he had difficulties to recover from the Filipino’s lethal blows.Solid punches
While Sugoro seemed to be bringing the fight to the Filipino, Ladon made sure to land the cleaner and the more significant blows to win in the eyes of at least 4 of the 5 judges at ringside. Marvin, the 2017 SEA Games gold medalist, was stunned in the early going of the 1st round as Truong Dinh Hoang dropped him to the canvas with a staggering overhand right, drawing infuriating screams for the raucous pro-Filipino crowd.
