Before Talisay officially became a city, it produced world champions like Bernabe Villacampo (WBA flyweight 1969-70), Frank Cede?o (WBC flyweight 1983-84), Eric Chavez (IBF minimumweight 1989) and Rolando Pascua (WBC lt. flyweight 1990-91).
The organizers want to continue this tradition. Talisay City now has a huge pool of amateur boxers still in elementary and high school which will be ready for the national team and the pros in the next few years.

DTT is tying up with promotional companies abroad and promise to bring foreign fighters in their subsequent fight cards. Representatives of Tiger Beer, one of the sponsors, were also in attendance. INTV CCTN network will handle the TV coverage. Tickets are affordable at 50, 300 and 500 pesos and are available at the Red Moon Chinese Restaurant in Talisay City.
