Suganob, who has 14 wins, one loss and four knockouts, is coached by Paul Gentallan and Edsel Burlas.
Regarding his Japanese opponent: “He is good, I don't take any chances because he has strength based on his knockout percentage”.
Ishizawa, on the other hand, has 11 wins, 3 loses and 10 knockouts.
In his bout, Ishizawa lost to Vince Paras of General Santos City by a split decision last October 12, 2023 at Ariake Arena in Koto-Ku, Japan.
