DAVAO CITY – Welterweight Jameson “Bring Home the” Bacon of Cebu will again see action on Nov. 20 at the Manual Artime Community Center Theater in Miami, Florida, USA.

Bacon, who made a US successful debut early this month, will be facing southpaw Cleotis “Mookie” Pendarvis of Lancaster, California.

The 34-year-old veteran Pendarvis (21W-6L-2D, 9KO) recently lost to Francisco Emanuel Torres of Argentina by a unanimous decision for the vacant World Boxing Association Fedecaribe super welterweight title on Aug. 15, 2020 at the Ocean Center in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Bacon (24W-4L-0D, 16KO), on the other hand, successfully made a grand debut by knocking out Gonzalo Carlos Dallera of Argentina in the 2nd round last Oct. 17 in Miami.

Before he went to the US, the 30-year-old Bacon first fought in Sydney, Australia against Darragh Foley of Ireland on Nov. 16 last year.

Bacon downed Foley in the 1st round but still lost by a unanimous decision. (PNA)
