68-65 Canoy; great start to the round by Adolfo with his counters but Canoy was hurting him in the second half. Dominant end by Canoy to win the round.

 

Casimero, who is in the crowd, seems to be enjoying watching his wannabe getting exposed lol

 

3 of the greatest fighters in Filipino boxing history are in the crowd today (Donaire, Nietes, Casimero).

Round 6: 10-9 Canoy
Round 7: 10-9 Canoy
Round 8: 10-9 Canoy

78-74 Canoy; dominant eighth by Canoy. This should be a unanimous decision win by Canoy to give a fake prospect his first loss.

 

Scores: 78-74 x3 for Canoy, great scores.

 

I'll be back for the main event after 3 more fights.

 

Donaire and Casimero are apparently going to be training together for their next fights.

 

Lol idk if Casimero is trolling or not but he says that the Inoue fight might happen in December.

 

Heard that Ito, his promoter, wanted Aleem but Aleem was not interested. Definitely a lot more better fights than this but I guess a decent showcase for his first fight in the country in 4 years.
