Garbed in white g-strings or native blouses and skirts, close to a thousand Ibaloys danced to the beat of gongs along downtown Baguio on Saturday (Feb. 23), the 9th Ibaloy Day.

Baguio Ibaloys, and Ibaloys from neighboring Benguet towns, proceeded to the Ibaloy Heritage Park inside the almost a century-old Burnham Park, where elders performed a thanksgiving ritual called "Owik".

Adriano Moraes silenced the Mall of Asia Arena when he edged out Geje Eustaquio in ONE Championship's first-ever trilogy bout.

After a cautious first frame from both men, the two flyweight superstars upped the ante in the later rounds, including an unorthodox submission attempt by Moraes in the fourth round. After five intense rounds, the judges ruled the bout in the favor of "Mikinho," giving the Brazilian his sixth ONE Flyweight World Title.
