Genesis Libranza Scores Fast TKO Win in Highland Show in Thailand By Carlos Costa PhilBoxing.com Fri, 29 Dec 2023  BANGKOK, Thailand – Filipino super flyweight Genesis "Cobra" Libranza's travel to the "Land of Smiles" was a total success as he delivered a quick and devastating round one TKO win over Thai warrior Adisak Ketpiam on Thursday, December 28, at the plush SpacePlus Night Club in Bangkok, Thailand, live on MV TV. The 30-year-old Filipino from Bayugan, Agusan del Sur, took his time in timing his opponent, figuring him out, then smashing his mid-section with a huge body shot that gassed out him out, dropping the Thai warrior to the canvas from where he could not get up. The situation forced veteran Thai third man Mr. Worawuth Duankhao to waive the battle off at the 2:58 of the very first frame. Libranza was assisted in his corner by veteran head coach Frank Jaro of Rizal. It was a commendable triumph for the experienced Pinoy warrior, even though there was no title in play. 
However, the victory brings Libranza into the winning column after two back-to-back loses by points in close contests in Pangasinan and South Africa. Tonight, Genesis Libranza is a winner, as well as a more confident fighter ready to take on tougher challenges in 2024, congratulations! 🇵🇭 👍 After dinner with promoter, coach and Highland stablemates, Libranza headed to Bangkok’s Airport for his flight home tonight; and his new year celebration will surely be even more happy. Libranza’s victory was part of the 16-bout international pro boxing show staged by Brico Santig’s Highland Boxing Promotions, in association with Supanat Chanram and SpacePlus Bangkok.
