Sinabi ni ALA Promotions President/CEO Michael Aldeguer na anim na buwang magpapahinga si Pagara para matiyak ang kaligtasan nito.

“It is unfortunate that Albert Pagara suffered his first career loss tonight. What’s important is Albert is okay,” malungkot na sabi ni Aldeguer. “But on a positive note, we’re very grateful with the crowd turnout. We had exciting fights from the first bout down to the main event and tickets were sold out.”

“Overall, it was a successful show – achieving ALA Promotions, ABS-CBN Sports, and TFC’s thrust to stage world-class boxing events all over the world.” dagdag ni Aldeguer. (Gilbert Espeña)
