The kid still has alot to offer. With a powerful team behind him, I'm sure he will get another chance to show his true ability. He has been offered as an opponent for Zapp but Lenny and team are heading in another direction.
Thats great to hear, I always thought he could benefit with a different trainer and will be keen to see how he goes
Great to hear Ganoy has good support from the Grange Old School Gym. A fight with Lenny down the track would be well worth watching.
Change of management for Ganoy: Australian-based Filipino KO Artist Ranee Ganoy Inks with Altamura from Doghouse Boxing - April 10th 2011 Explosive-punching lightweight, Ranee KO Kid Ganoy (31-11-2, 27 KOs), inked an exclusive managerial agreement with rising Australian boxing manager, Mike Altamura, earlier today. The Australian-based Filipino has scored six consecutive inside-the-distance victories since a world title elimination setback in 2008. Previously, he rattled off a string of incredible upsets, including an eight-round destruction of former IBF 130lb champion Robbie Peden. Ranee Ganoy is the hardest hitting fighter, pound-for-pound, in Australia right now, and one of the hardest hitting lightweights in the world, said Altamura. Hes a fun, fun fighter to watch, and a bonafide homerun hitter. Although a renowned puncher, Ganoys boxing technique and skills have significantly improved since hooking up with Grange Old School Boxing trainer Graham Shaw in 2009. Altamura is adamant that the 31-year-old is just hitting his professional peak. Hes been a little inactive, but hes continued learning and developing and I am confident that within a couple fights, hell be ready for any of the lightweight champions.
Good luck to Ganoy, hope he can get on a good platform overseas now that he is with Altamura. Something like a ESPN FNF or ShoBox card would be great. Any fights/plans coming up for the other inactive Grange fighters???
This is a super move for Ranee. Mike Altamura is one of Australia's best manager's. Like's to stay out of the limelight and let his fighters develop and he has massive associations in the USA with the likes of Top Rank, GBP, Banner and DiBella Entertainment and also with his business partner on certain fighters such as Paul Fleming - Cameron Dunkin. He'll give Ranee every opportunity to shine. Much better than 6rd undercard fights back here in Australia.
Is this too little to late with Ganoy? His not a up and commer any more and he'll need to get straight into it to get a world rating and title shot.
