MANILA, Philippines — Kapamilya actor Gerald Anderson will be up against immense physical odds when he faces mixed martial artist Mark "Mugen" Striegl and boxing champion Rodex "The Tank" Piala in the upcoming finale of his show "Sins of the Father."

Series producer JRB Creative Production posted a reel on Instagram showing Gerald, Mugen, and Rodex practicing stuntwork.

"Dalawang mandirigmang haharapin ni Samuel sa isang matinding laban! Abangan!" the production company teased in its caption.

In the video, Gerald said he really admired Mugen and Rodex during the filming of their scene as it came off looking real.

"Real fighters, mas real 'yung eksena," Gerald said. "There's one move na tinuhod ako na parang nandito na (sa noo), humalik lang sa akin 'yung tuhod, 'di ko alam kung paano ginawa 'yon pero ang galing."

The actor called making a fight scene with Rodex quite an experience after noticing how different his speed was.

"Kumpara doon sa naka-fight ko and obviously sa mga stunt doubles which is a different kind of technique. Ito talaga boksingero kasi and he's a current champion," Gerald praised the boxer, expressing hopes he'd work with both athletes again soon.

Mugen is also a sambo gold medalist in the Southeast Asian Games and gained wider attention after representing the Philippines in Netflix's "Physical: Asia" with Manny Pacquiao and four other Filipino athletes.

Rodex is the current World Boxing Organization Oriental Super Featherweight titleholder, a title he won after defeating Yeerjialahasi Laayibieke last February.
