Cebuano fighter to use experience in ONE clash vs Brazilian

-

Jimmy Yabo is old. But he believes that is exactly his advantage against Bruno Pucci in their featherwei­ght clash this June 30.

The Cebuano Yabo will be locking horns with the Brazilian Pucci in ONE Championsh­ip's "Light of a Nation" fight night in Myanmar.

“Experience is the key. Bruno Pucci is young and talented, but I have been around for so long. I am ready for this given task to fight him," Yabo offered.

With a 5-4 win-loss record, Yabo is looking to arrest a two-game losing skid. But while he is coming into the cage seeking his first win in over a year, he prides himself to have pulled off his wins through either knockout or technical knockout.

"My advantage coming into this fight is my experience. I have fought different caliber of opponents throughout my career," the 36-year-old fighter said. "Don't count me out yet."

"I am to go back to the Philippine­s with the sweet win," he added. —
