Yesterday was the coveted Philippine Sportswriters Association Annual Awards Night at Centennial Hall of Manila Hotel.

“He didn’t show up for the second straight year and, again, there was no word from him or anything,” said a disgusted PSA president Rey Bancod
Bancod said the consensus world Fighter of the Year also didn’t give
any reason for not showing up last year, when he shared the 2011 Athlete
of the Year plum with cue wizard Dennis Orcollo.
The PSA received a text from Donaire’s road manager, who told
Bancod twice to wait for an e-mail from his ward days before the awards
night. But it never came.
“I even asked help from some of the (PSA) members who are close to him (Donaire) but to no avail,” said Bancod.
Looks like the Philippine Sportswriters Association is pissed, What could be the main reason of Donaire absence, Boxing fans let me know what you think?
