He won the Brazilian cruiserweight title in 2008, unsuccessfully challenged for the WBO Latino title, and defended his national championship the same year. |

| In May 2010 he lost to former WBA World Light Heavyweight champion Gabriel Campillo, but is coming off a victory this past November. “Momo” Dridi, a jet-set celebrity also known as an actor and author, has prepared thoroughly in Dijon, France, and is reported to be in great shape for the task ahead. But he will be in for a rough night against the tough Sao Paolo resident, who also earns a living as a professional model, and it shapes up to be an interesting night of championship boxing. Even though the fight will be between an actor and a model, you can be sure there will be no posing once the first bell sounds! |
