GANOY DEFENDS IBF TITLE ON JUNE 8
By Ronnie Nathanielsz PhilBoxing.com Thu, 31 May 2007
Hard-hitting Filipino Ranee Ganoy is scheduled to defend his IBF Pan Pacific lightweight title against Indonesia’s Joey de Ricardo in Brisbane, Australia on June 8.
The 27 year old Ganoy who is based in Sydney is managed by Dido Bohol who migrated to Australia several years ago and is trained by his sons Jeffrey and Hermie Bohol.
Ganoy won the IBF regional title with an eighth round KO of former WBC super featherweight title challenger Robbie Peden last March 9 in Peden’s hometown of Brisbane.
Peden lost a twelve round decision in a title fight against Marco Antonio Barrera on September 17, 2005 and was favored to beat Ganoy. But the rugged Filipino had Peden in trouble with some big shots several times in the fight before Peden’s corner threw in the towel in the eighth round as Ganoy nailed the Australian with a series of vicious blows. It was Ganoy’s fifth straight stoppage and he now has a record of 22-10-2 with 19 knockouts.
Joey de Ricardo has a record of 11 wins and 2 draws with only one defeat and 7 knockouts. He is coming off a 5th round TKO over Richard Sandikal last October 12. The Indonesian fought the Philippines Czar Amonsot to a controversial draw in a ten round bout in Jakarta on March 22, 2005.
