Professional career

Early career

edit

On October 15, 2016, Vayson made his professional debut against Cotabato del Sur's Frankie Batuon, eventually, Vayson came out victorious via 3rd-round technical knockout, by October 2018 to September 2019, Vayson amassed a record of 8–0 before tying with subsequent IBF mini-flyweight champion, Rene Mark Cuarto.

Vayson was expected to face world-class compatriot, Mark Vicelles on October 30, 2021, however, a month before the bout was supposed to take place, on September 24, 2021, Vayson withdrew from the fight due to an apparent injury sustained in training.[1]

Vayson vs. Monabesa

edit

After 2 years of Inactivity, Vayson returned against former IBO and the then current WBC International light-flyweight champion, Tibo Monabesa for Monabesa's WBC International title on February 27, 2022, at Holywings Club, Jakarta.[2] Vayson and Monabesa would both show an incredible clash with Vayson scoring a knockdown in rounds 3 and 9 while Monabesa scored a knockdown in round 8, although, Vayson seemed like he outperformed Monabesa, the judges scored it: 94–94 even, 95–93 and 95–94 for Monabesa, causing Vayson's coach, Allan Alegria to file complaint afterwards.[3] On March 7, 2022, the WBC declared the bout as no contest, stating: "The 10 judges who evaluated the fight during this process scored the fight in favor of the Philippine challenger by a wide margin", the WBC was also informed that the panel of officials were all local and not a neutral one, therefore, Monabesa would keep his title and Vayson would remain undefeated.[4]

Vayson vs. Lalbiakkima

edit

Vayson would fly to Dubai to challenge the then undefeated Indian boxer, Nutlai Lalbiakkima for the vacant ABCO Asian Continental light-flyweight championship, Vayson would outperform his opponent and would be granted a win via decision.[5]

Vayson vs. Akui

edit

On February 4, 2023, Vayson moved up weight to clash with subsequent WBA flyweight champion, Seigo Yuri Akui on a 10-rounds contest at Korakuen Hall. Vayson would lose his undefeated status as Akui defeated him via "shutout decision".[6]

Supposedly, Vayson would battle out with fellow previously outpointed, Jackson Chauke for the vacant IBF Inter-Continental flyweight title on May 27, 2023, in South Africa.[7][8] However, the bout was suddenly cancelled.[9]

Vayson vs. Yamanaka

edit

In December 2023, Vayson would move back down to the light-flyweight division for his upcoming bout against Ryuya Yamanaka at Kobe, Japan with the WBO Asia Pacific title at stake, although Vayson was again expected to lose at Japan, instead, Vayson shocked the former WBO mini-flyweight champion as he landed an uppercut that Yamanaka could not continue from en route to a scintillating second-round technical knockout.[10]
