Albert Pagara returns to the win column after his knockout loss to Cesar Juarez, winning a decision over Raymond Commey

MANILA, Philippines – Albert Pagara stepped up to featherweight and earned a unanimous decision win over Raymond Commey on Saturday, November 26 at Cebu Coliseum in Cebu City, just 4 months after suffering his first professional defeat.

Pagara (27-1, 18 knockouts) earned marks of 99-91 on all 3 scorecards over Ghana’s Commey (16-4, 9 KOs) in his first fight since he was knocked out in 8 rounds by Cesar Juarez in San Mateo, California. Pagara, 22, weighed in at the featherweight limit of 126 while Commey weighed in almost a division lighter at 122.5 pounds.

Pagara’s older brother Jason Pagara (40-2, 25 KOs) finished matters earlier, knocking out former WBA lightweight titleholder Jose Alfaro (28-11-1, 24 KOs) at 2:15 of round one on a body shot in their 10-round scheduled match. 

Flyweight prospect and University of the Visayas criminology student KJ Cataraja (5-0, 4 KOs) also finished matters early, stopping John Kenan Villaflor (6-2-2, 2 KOs) in the first round. – Rappler.com
