Early life
Like any other boxer from the Philippines, Servania came from a poor family before arising into fame. His father was convicted in a crime earlier, and couldn't get a job. In return, his mother went out to sell fishes to provide the needs of their family. Eventually, Servania dropped out of school at the age of 15, and became a tricycle driver.
To earn more for living, Servania started joining local tournaments as an amateur boxer, and won few fights before turning pro. He was then introduced to Antonio L. Aldeguer of ALA Promotions.
