World Filipino boxing champion Jerwin Ancajas acknowledged being impressed by American boxer Joshua Franco, a potential opponent.

Franco scored a major upset over Andrew Moloney, battering the Australian fighter en route to a decision win last month and becoming the new WBA junior bantamweight "regular" champion."Nagulat ako nu'ng makita siyang lumaban, ganoon pala siya lumaro."

His promoter, Top Rank's Bob Arum, has previously said he plans to set Ancajas up for a title unification bout against Franco. However, Ancajas may have to wait as Moloney has exercised his option to go for a rematch against Joshua.The camp of the reigning IBF junior bantamweight champion is currently working on getting clearance for the boxer's flight to the US.

But Ancajas said he looks forward to possiblly meeting Franco inside the ring. "Talagang excited kami," he said.

Always use this photo, Rappler. 😅 God! Naiintindihan ba ng gobyerno na di na nga makapag enroll mga estudyante kasi wala silang resources to digitally enroll? Which also means na wala rin resources for ACTUAL online classes? I mean- are they dumb or are they dumb as fuck?
