Jerusalem shrugs off age disparity
The Philippine Star
|October 28, 2025
WBC minimumweight champion Melvin Jerusalem isn't worried that South African challenger Siyakholwa Kuse is nine years younger because in his view, experience is more an advantage than age.
-
Manny Pacquiao was 46 when he fought Mario Barrios, 16 years younger, last July and deserved to win so the age difference wasn't a factor.
Kuse, 22, turned pro in 2018 when Jerusalem was 24 and had logged 15 bouts. They face off in the main event of the "Thrilla In Manila" Golden Anniversary card at the Smart Araneta Coliseum tomorrow. It's Kuse's first assignment outside of South Africa but fighting on hostile soil doesn't seem to bother him. Kuse has predicted he'll either knock out Jerusalem or beat him convincingly to win by decision. He knows it's a chance of a lifetime and winning a WBC title in front of WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman will be an incredible boost to his career.
