OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF DONNIE NIETES
PhilBoxing.com Fri, 01 Mar 2019

"After thinking hard about it for a long time, I have decided to vacate my WBO Super flyweight belt, I feel in my heart that there is no point to do the rematch with Aston Palicte after the controversial draw.
I hope to seek bigger fights with the world champions of the other organizations. It may or may not happen but I believe this is the right decision under this situation.
Also, I would want to give my fellow Filipino Aston Palicte a chance to fight for the World title to bring pride and glory to our country.
Thank you for your support. Mabuhay ang Pilipinas "
