Macau - Jerwin Ancajas, of Cavite City, the lone Filipino fighter in the undercard of Manny Pacquiao versus Chris Algieri, scored a third round knockout of Fadhili Majiha of Tanzania.
After a tentative first round, Ancajas almost dropped Majiha of Tanzania in the 2nd round and then he finished the job in the next round with a left cross that permanently placed his opponent in the canvas.
Majiha was laid flat in the cold ring by that darting punch from Ancajas and the he was not able to recover as the referee counted him out with a full 10 count. Time of stoppage was at 1:48 of the third round.
Ancajas, who now fights under Pacquiao's MP Promotions is also trained by Nonoy Neri, one of Pacquiao's co-trainer. He improved his lot to 22 wins against a loss and a draw. This is his 14th career knockout.
