Young-Ho Oh,

Made a couple of quick OPBF Lightweight Title defenses, by defeating (W Dec 12)
Battlehawk Kazama, and a (KO 4) rematch with Tony Jumao-As.

But, an October 5, 1976 trip to Thailand, resulted in a (L Dec 10) to another
rising Lightweight - 'undefeated' Thai - Poot Lorlek.

That loss snapped the Korean's 20-bout winning streak, and dropped
him to 32-4-2.

But, Young-Ho rebounded with 'two' more OPBF Lightweight Title defenses, by (KO 4)
over Sperling Pangaribuan, and then a shocking (KO 1) over Philippine veteran
- Fred Rolando Pastor.

By May 1977, the 25 year-old - 'Korean Terror' was hoping for a Lightweight Championship
bout with Esteban De Jesus, as Young-Ho was now ranked as the #4 WBC Lightweight with
a record of 38-4-2 (26 KO's).
