SOUTHPAW Joey “The Babyface” Canoy of General Santos City and his team are still waiting for their visas for Canoy's title fight against undefeated WBO and WBA reigning champion Oscar “El Pupilo” Collazo of Puerto Rico on June 20 in California, USA.
The 32-year-old Canoy [25-5-2, 5KOs] will be accompanied by team manager Jim Claude “JC” Manangquil, assistant Ramon Falgui and trainer Eduardo Eduro of Sanman Boxing from General Santos City.
Canoy, who is rated no. 5 by the World Boxing Organization [WBO] and no. 9 by the World Boxing Association [WBA], is still training at Sanman Boxing Gym.
Canoy recently beat Pablito Balidio of Bohol by a unanimous decision last March 14 in Matanao, Davao del Sur.
Canoy earlier stopped Minh Phat Sam of Vietnam by a technical knockout in the 10th round last April 2025 to win the WBC International minimum title in Gensan.
Collazo [14-0-0, 11KOs], on the other hand, has retired Jesus Haro of the USA in the 6th round last March 14 for the WBO World minimum title in Honda Center Anaheim.
