CANOY SINGWANGCHA STOPS TEJARES, WINS ABF BELT By Rene Bonsubre, Jr. PhilBoxing.com Mon, 24 Aug 2015  CEBU CITY ? Late sub Rodel Tejares gave Canoy J. Singwangcha a lot of trouble in the early going but Canoy eventually found his range and used a hard body shot to drop Tejares in the eighth round. Tejares got up but turned his back still in pain prompting Referee Ben Necesario to stop the contest at the 1:38 mark. The diminutive southpaw otherwise known as Joey Canoy could not find his range against the taller Tejares. Accidental clashes of heads also marred the bout; something that is common in southpaw vs orthodox match-ups. Canoy used his speed advantage to close the gap. In the fourth, Tejares complained of being hurt inside his mouth after an accidental headbutt. But after the action resumed, he was deducted a point for using his elbow on Canoy?s cheekbone. Canoy turned up the heat and was pitching a shutout in the judges? scores prior to the stoppage. He was awarded the Asia Boxing Federation (ABF) miniflyweight title by Thai boxing patron Naris Singwangcha and Promoter Rex ?Wakee? Salud. Canoy is now 10-1-1, 4Ko?s. Tejares drops to 20-35-6,5Ko?s.

He got up but Referee Teddy Alivio correctly stopped the fight as Angcamor was in no condition to continue. Time 0:14. Joaquino E.
