Cordillera - A proud Cordilleran boxer was crowned the New Featherweight King of Asia by the WBC Asian Boxing Council after defeating Attanon Kunlawong of Thailand on June 25, 2022.
KJ "The Ipugo" Natuplag who hails from Ifugao province and trained under Highland Boxing Gym improved his professional boxing record to nine wins since turning pro in 2015.
In his latest fight against Kunlawong, he delivered a sensational second round TKO, courtesy to his powerful left hook to the jaw of his opponent.
Natuplag didn't expect the power of his punch could end in a knockout because he suffered a lot of punches from Kunlawong in the first round.
He thanked all the individuals and groups that helped him during the training.
Natuplag currently works as a fitness and boxing trainer in Dubai.
Congratulations Mr. Natuplag for the win. The whole Cordillera is very proud of you.
