ONE MAN'S LOSS - IS UKC INFINITY'S GAIN !!

They say one man's loss is another man's gain, and Filipino boxing fans will have the privilege of witnessing the return of former world title challenger Vincent Astrolabio, as his comeback bout—originally scheduled for Cambodia, has been moved to Manila at very late notice.
The exciting news is that the fight will now take place this Thursday, April 10, as part of the Ultimate Knockout Challenge (UKC) "INFINITY" boxing event.
