An IBF mininumweight title eliminator between Florante ‘The Little Pacquaio’ Condes (23-4-1, 20 KOs) and current IBO minimumweight champion Nkosinathi Joyi (19-0, 15 KOs) will take place June 26th at the Orient Theatre in East London, Eastern Cape, South Africa. For Condes it’s an opportunity to get closer to a second title opportunity. To do so he will again have to go on the road. Condes lost a split decision to current IBF champion Raul Garcia close to year ago in Garcia’s hometown of Laz Paz in Mexico. Condes actually scored a knockdown in the final round of that bout in which the champion got up and went on to win the decision.
