Mga kababayan, this is it. Kenneth "Lover Boy" Llover is ready.
In Tokoname, Japan, Kenneth made weight perfectly at 58.0 kg for his biggest fight yet.
This is an IBF title eliminator - one win and he fights for a world championship next.
Guided by our own legend *Gerry Peñalosa*, Kenneth looked great! Today he’s walking in fresh, sharp, and smiling.
To remind, IBF rules are super strict. You can’t gain more than 4.5kg before the fight. Kenneth nailed it! Discipline. Focus. Heart!
After the weigh-in, Kenneth had one message:
“I’ll give fans my best fight. And yes, I’m going for the KO.”
That’s our Lover Boy! 24 years old, 17-0, from Cavite, carrying our flag 🇵🇭 with dear hermano Sir Gerry in his corner.
