Ricardo Sueno Battles Anuchai Donsua for IBF Australasian 118 pound Title Wednesday in Thailand

PhilBoxing.com





BANGKOK, Thailand -- Filipino warrior Ricardo "Smiley" Sueno (L) of the beautiful City of Bacolod in Negros Occidental, and unbeaten former Muay Thai combatant Anuchai Donsua of Thailand feel more than ready ahead of their incoming war for the vacant IBF Australasian Bantamweight Strap set for Wednesday, July 19, at the popular Rangsit Boxing Stadium (เวทีมวยนานาชาติ), in Thailand.

Both serious and strong young men can boast excellent shape for their important battle.

They know so well that the winner will hugely advance his pro boxing career, perhaps even getting a place among the top-15 in the world rankings in the always hot bantamweight division.

Undefeated in 10 fights - although without that much of a fierce opposition - the Thai Anuchai Donsua, 26, faces in Sueno his toughest opponent yet.

Far better-tested and more-experienced, Ricardo "Smiley" Sueno is a man without fear who has gotten into the square ring to trade hard blows against some of the very best 118-pounders in the Land of boxing king Many Pacquiao.

While Anuchai has not yet fought any name of relevance that could have enriched his boxing resume, Ricardo Sueno, yes.



In fact, Sueno, 28, feels proud that he has waged war against some outstanding names in his weight-class, such as former world title challenger Regie Suganob (13-1, 4 KO's), Japanese IBF world-ranked tiger Taku Kuwahara (13-1, 8 KO's), as well as former WBA world belt-holder Reymart Gaballo (26-1, 24 KO's).

Yes, while Ricardo Sueno had lost in his rough encounters against those hard men, in the eyes of fans Ricardo battled just fine, standing on his ground, never backing away from heated trouble, indeed taking the best shots from the world-rated pumas, putting his heart, and decidedly best effort in the combat.

Therefore, might the handlers of Anuchai Donsua (10-0, 3 KO's), have made a miscalculation by pitting their undefeated unproven ward against the fearless, battle-tested Ricardo Sueno (12-7-4, 5 KO's)? What do you think?

So, If you'd had to bet your hard-earned pesos, would you go for the undefeated unproven man?

Or would you put your trust on the battle-tested fighter, the one who had the guts and spirit of going into war against world-ranked predators, even though losing to them?

Not sure whom to pick? Well, that is one of the beauties of boxing: anyone can win, anything can happen!

This main event - scheduled for 10 rounds of action - on Wednesday, July 19, is a promotion of well-known Thai man of boxing Mr. Panya Prachakorn of the prolific boxing outfit Petchyindee Boxing Promotions (Diamond Boxing).

The televised show (unfortunately, only in Thailand), is supervised by IBF Vice President Mr. Ben Keilty of Perth, Western Australia.

"Anuchai vs Sueno" for the vacant IBF Australasia Bantamweight Title, May the Best Man Win!. 🇹🇭 🇵🇭 👍 🥊
