Unleashing a couple of possible knockdown blows, Prince Arm’s Cole, junior light fly weight boxer of Unit I knocked out his opponent Renante Balbutin of Unit IV in a two-minute bout in Round 1 during the boxing-boys finals on February 8, 2023.

“I was amazed by his performance despite the short time spent for his training. Cole was able to maximize the opportunities, and was able to reach a greater distance and capitalize on his opponent’s weakness which made it advantageous to win the fight. Apart from being young, his potential, dedication and commitment will help him progress to a bigger fight like DAVRAA and Palarong Pambansa,” said Jay Reeve P. Guerrero, champion coach, Davao City National High School, Unit I.

Cole will be moving forward to Davao Region Athletic Association (DAVRAA) Sports Meet representing the Division of Davao City in Junior Light Fly Weight division this April 2023.
