MANILA, Philippines—Charly Suarez aims to make a statement against Delmar Pellio in a 10-round super featherweight bout on December 4 at Elorde Sports Complex in Parañaque City.

Suarez, a three-time Southeast Asian Games gold medalist, will headline the event alongside another undefeated Filipino prospect in Carl Jammes Martin.

The 33-year-old Suarez, who made his pro debut just two years ago, stakes his perfect 8-0 record against fellow unbeaten Pellio (9-0, 4KOs).

Another win by Suarez, who represented the country in the 2016 Rio Olympics, would get him closer to a regional title fight and eventually a shot at a world crown if he keeps it up.
