Shortly after his arrival from Johannesburg, South Africa where he successfully won the IBO World Jr. Bantamweight Boxing Crown, Edrin “The Sting” Dapudong was featured in ABS-CBN’s top-rated morning show “Umagang Kay Ganda.”
The show, hosted by Anthony Taberna and Jing Castaneda, is seen internationally through The Filipino Channel.
But for the benefit of those living abroad who were not able to see it, I am posting here a clip of the UKG program featuring the new champion from Barangay Pag-asa, M’lang, North Cotabato.
