Pacquiao bows out, Donaire hangs on

WITH the cancellation of IBF junior bantamweight champion Jerwin Ancajas' December 31 unification showdown with WBO counterpart Kazuto Ioka, there is no longer any major world title fight left involving a Filipino boxer, thus bringing to a close the country's campaign in the international fight scene for 2021.

Officially, the country is winding up its campaign with four full-fledged world champions in WBC bantamweight king Nonito Donaire Jr., WBO bantamweight champ John Riel Casimero, IBF junior bantamweight champ Ancajas and IBF minumumweight king Rene Mark Cuarto.
