The upcoming stars of Philippine boxing, twins Jake and Jade Bornea, both flyweights, scored big in their respective bouts in the boxing event staged Saturday in M'lang, North Cotabato.
Jade, the older of the twins but who turned pro later than his brother Jake, stopping a game but outclassed Armando Yee after the end of the second round for a 3rd round TKO victory.
It was Jade's second victory in as many professional outings and his second consecutive stoppage victory.
Younger twin brother, Jake, who turned pro ahead of Jade, punished Rowiel Garcia causing a huge welt in the latter's left eye before stopping him at 2:45 of the second round.
