Statement from Joey Canoy: “I want to thank Sanman Boxing. I want to fight world title. If Jerusalem moves up in weight I’d like the WBC title; if not I’d like to fight for another world title or a WBC eliminator.”
Statement from Sanman Boxing CEO JC Manangquil: “It was a good tune-up bout for Canoy, he needed some rounds as he had a couple of fights that were cancelled or postponed. We look forward to a world title or title eliminator mid this 2026.”
Canoy dominated the action throughout, with Balidio showing grit and resilience to survive all six rounds.
