Bangoyan scores TKO win over Pader

Philippine Boxing Federation Junior featherweight champion Balweg Bangoyan of Jose Abad Santos scored a fifth round technical knockout, Sunday night, against Jun Pader of Sorsogon in Mangagoy.

The 19-year-old Balweg hurt his right hand in the second round, suffered a headbutt wound in the fourth but recovered just in time in the fifth round to stop Pader.

Balweg, who won the crown on NOvember 14 against Elper Paganpan in a 10-round promotion by Manny Pacquiao at the Mall of Asia, improved to 10 wins, eight by knockouts and two by unanimous decision.

Jose Abad Santos Mayor Alexander Wangkay said his fighter after a full rest will resume training under the watchful eyes of veteran trainer Vicente "Teng" Adriano.
