Fight Preview – Friday, August 15, 2025

ProBox TV Events Center, Plant City, Florida

This Friday night, the ProBox TV Events Center will host a classic crossroads bout in the middleweight division, as unbeaten Filipino knockout artist Weljon “Triggerman” Mindoro (14-0-1, 14 KOs) takes on battle-tested Colombian southpaw Dormedes Potes (14-7-1, 10 KOs).

Mindoro, 25, enters the ring with a perfect stoppage record—every victory coming by knockout.

Standing 5’11” with a 72-inch reach, the Bacoor, Cavite native has quickly built a reputation as one of Asia’s most dangerous punchers.

Ranked #48 in the world and the #1 middleweight in the Philippines, the “Triggerman” combines explosive power with a patient, punishing style that wears opponents down before closing the show.

Across from him will be the seasoned Dormedes Potes, a 12-year professional with 22 fights and 110 career rounds.

The Barranquilla-born southpaw has shared the ring with a mix of domestic and international opposition, and while he’s been inactive in recent months, his experience, toughness, and unorthodox stance could present Mindoro with his stiffest stylistic test to date.

That said, keep the smelling salts handy !!

Action takes place tomorrow at the Elorde Sports Centre in Parañaque.

RODRIGO JOINS THE BATTLEFIELD

RODRIGO JOINS THE BATTLEFIELD

Perhaps one of the unluckiest boxers in recent months is high octane performer Jino Rodrigo. The "Silent Beast" has been the victim of multiple fight cancelations, including an international challenge in Kazakhstan. But Borat's loss is Philippines' gain, and the big news breaking today is that GAB has approved the late inclusion of Rodrigo at BATTLEFIELD UKC TIGER 2O22.

Jino Rodrigo takes on a previous opponent in Kelvin Tenorio, a fighter who he edged a points victory over back in 2018. Tenorio managed to survive onslaughts from top prospects like Jose Roda Jr and Carlo Bacaro, so this should be a really good clash.

And Jino is a MADMAN !

You will never see the Silent Beast in a boring fight - this is a guy that always tries to put the judges out of a job !

If there is a Knockout to be had, Jino Rodrigo is the man to deliver it, because he carries the sleeping pills in both hands !

GREAT FIGHTS IN HO TRAM

GREAT FIGHTS IN HO TRAM

Despite suffering narrow losses, Ben Ligas and Jules Victoriano produced next level performances in the belt fights in Vietnam last night.

Ligas faced the vastly experienced Uzbek, the much revered "mini Tyson " Olimjon Nazarov. This was quality boxing from both, with "the Sniper" bringing the cleaner punches, but perhaps lacking the aggression of Nazarov, who looked constantly keen for work. This was a hard match to score, as neither fighter was particularly dominant in a see sawing affair, and the body shot in the 11th where Ligas took a knee was perhaps the only real difference.

Dinh Hong Quan is physically indomitable, and with his height and reach, this improving Vietnam boxer is a task for anybody. It was anticipated that Jules Victoriano would give him his toughest test to date, and he definitely didn't disappoint !

This was a great fight, and is probably best viewed in two parts. Victoriano boxed beautifully in the early rounds, but despite landing nice shots, the Vietnam champ kept stealing rounds with some heavier and more direct landed shots. Quan also "appeared" more dominant, more frequently backing Victoriano up and putting him on to combos.

Going into the second half of the fight, Victoriano definitely lifted his output and accuracy, and even gave the Vietnam opponent a couple of "dig deep" moments !

This was an exciting and fantastic match up, that very easily could have been scored a draw, it was that evenly contested! There is no doubt that Dinh Hong Quan produced the best performance of his career last night, and this was really needed because of the beautiful boxing skills displayed by Jules Victoriano.

VSP would love to see these two great young fighters rematch at a later date, maybe on a bigger stage!

Post event, all smiles, and pictured are Coach Toto Laurente, Ben Ligas, VSP Vietnam boss Lim Song, and Jules Victoriano. Great job by all !
