MANILA, Philippines - Umagaw ng eksena si dating World Boxing Council (WBC) light flyweight champion Rodel Mayol matapos talunin si Javier Gallo ng Me­xico sa kanilang preliminary bout sa Manny Pac­quiao-Shane Mosley 12-round title fight kahapon sae MGM Grand Garden sa Las Vegas, Nevada.

Umiskor si Mayol, nasa bakuran ng MP Promotions ni Pacquiao, ng isang ma­jority decision laban sa Tijuana-born na si Gallo.

Nakakuha si Mayol ng 98-92 points kina judges Jerry Roth at Lisa Giampa, samantalang nagbigay naman sa kanya si C.J. Ross ng 95-95.
