Boxing match: Torre vs Baste
Tempo
|July 24, 2025
Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Gen. Nicolas Torre III has expressed no objection to the challenge posed by acting Davao City Mayor Sebastian “Baste” Duterte for a fistfight.
However, the 54-year-old top cop emphasized his desire to turn the confrontation into something meaningful by proposing a charity boxing match instead.
Torre intends for all proceeds from ticket sales and pay-per-view earnings to benefit the victims of Tropical Storm “Crising” and other recent weather related calamities.
"You know tamang tama dahil marami ang nasalanta ngayon ng bagyo at baha. Maybe we can use this moment as an opportunity to raise funds in a well charity boxing match," said Torre.
