It was reported that world-rated, ex-world flyweight champ Medgoen Singsurat kept his WBC Asian Boxing Council superflyweight belt by a fifth round knockout of a Filipino opponent named Tata Polinar in Saraburi, Thailand last Friday.

Polinar, however, has been staying in Cebu, Philippines, in preparation for his fight with world-rated bantam Manabu Fukushima in Tokyo on this coming Saturday. He has never left and never arrived in Thailand. The investigation of the GAB (Games and Amusements Board of the Philippines, the local commission) started thereafter, and Emmanuel Flores, the GAB boxing chief, has sent an official letter today to the Japan Boxing Commission (JBC), saying that it was definitely not Tata Polinar that lately fought and lost in Thailand. There's no other boxer with the same name of Tata Polinar in the Philippines. Then, who on earth was the Filipino boxer who campaigned there under the name of Polinar?

:o:D:D

and before the discovery of an imposter was made:

Former WBC fly king, current WBC#4 Medgoen Singsurat (41-3,28 KOs) successfully retained his WBC Asian Boxing Council superfly title as he destroyed Filipino Tata Polinar on Friday in Saraburi Province, Thailand. This bout was the eleventh title of the Thai fighter who defeated Manny Pacquiao, capturing the WBC fly crown in September 1999. The experienced Medgoen stalked his foe from round one, weakening the Filipino with tough body attacks. In round five, he displayed a one-sided assault and closed the show with a left hook to Polinar's face that resulted in a full ten-count at 1:27.

He clearly had an advantage over Polinar with that long reach. :o
