Cop Jusue Bastillada Returns to Fight BJ Wild for PBF Title

Police officer and boxer Jusue Bastillada is set to return to action in his hometown of Toledo City, where he will face the experienced BJ Wild in the main event of Chao Sy International Promotions’ “Fist of Fury XI” on Saturday, June 20, 2026, at the Barba Sports Complex.

Bastillada, a full-time police officer in Toledo City, will be competing for the Philippine Boxing Federation (PBF) featherweight title against Wild. The 36-year-old Bastillada aims to bounce back from a defeat he suffered nearly a year ago, when he dropped a split-decision loss to former ALA boy Jess Rhey Waminal in a World Boxing Foundation (WBF) Silver featherweight title fight, also held in Toledo City. That loss was only the second of his 12-fight career.

Wild, on the other hand, began his professional career as one of the country’s most promising prospects. He opened his career with 12 wins and a draw before encountering a rough patch. He is currently riding a six-fight losing streak and has not tasted victory in the past three years. Wild suffered his first career defeat in 2024 when he was stopped by Japanese fighter Subaru Murata in six rounds in Japan. Since then, he has also lost to Sem Jopet Enano, India’s Laldinsanga Laldinsanga, Gabriel Tapales, Benny Cañete, and most recently, Mark Anthony Sarino.

Bastillada carries an impressive 10-2 win-loss record with six knockouts, while Wild stands at 12-6-1, also with six knockouts.
