An up-and-coming 22-year-old Filipino boxer who sustained injuries fighting in Manny Pacquiao's 'Blow by Blow' boxing event has died.
On Saturday, Kenneth Egano took on Jason Facularin in an eight-round contest in the Philippines, with the event organised by MP Promotions. The company of the 44-year-old hosts the show on a weekly basis.
Egano, a bantamweight, survived a knockdown during the bout - which took place at the Imus Sports Gymnasium in Imus, Cavite, Philippines - but came back strongly. After the final bell sounded, the outcome appeared in the balance.
