SUMMARY:Iglesias VS. Ivanov
DESCRIPTION:The Tornado’s Coming\nThe “Tornado” is approaching\, and soon it will be unavoidable. Osleys ‘El Tornado’ Iglesias\, ranked 7th by the IBF\, will defend his IBO super middleweight world title in a 12-round fight against undefeated Ukrainian contender Petro Ivanov on November 7. The event will take place at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal and will be broadcast live from 6:30 PM on Punchinggrace.com and ESPN+. \n“Osleys Iglesias is on the fast track because\, as seen in his recent performances\, he has quickly proven that he is ready for the toughest challenges. Petro Ivanov is one of them\,” revealed Eye of the Tiger president Camille Estephan. \nOsleys Iglesias (12-0\, 11 KOs) has been wreaking havoc since arriving in Quebec. In March\, he mystified Marcelo Coceres in the 1st round\, even though the tireless Argentine had gone 9\, 10\, and 11 rounds with Pacheco\, Berlanga\, and Saunders. In June\, the Tornado struck again in the 1st round\, this time against Evgeny Shvedenko. The Russian contender\, who had never been stopped before\, was knocked out so brutally that the KO is certain to be a finalist for KO of the Year. Then\, on August 17\, Iglesias stole the spotlight once again by securing the KO and the performance of the night\, stopping former world title contender Sena Agbeko in the 2nd round. Now\, with a 4th fight in just 8 months\, slowing down is certainly not part of his plan. \n“I’m happy to be fighting so often. Petro Ivanov is an undefeated guy who dreams of becoming a world champion. Most importantly\, he’s brave enough to step into the ring with me. I respect that\, but I’ll make sure to deliver yet another electrifying performance for the fans in Montreal and worldwide\,” said IBO world champion Osleys Iglesias\, who is also ranked 5th by the WBC. \nIn the opposite corner\, IBF International champion Petro Ivanov (18-0-2\, 13 KOs) is also looking to use this fight as a springboard. Having split his career between his native Ukraine and his adopted home of Germany\, the 28-year-old fighter remains undefeated in 20 bouts. In addition to the IBF International title\, he has also been a WBC International champion and the WBC Youth world champion. Furthermore\, he won’t be intimidated by the hostile Quebec crowd\, as in 2018\, he traveled to France to claim his first Youth title by knocking out the hometown favorite\, Louis Toutin\, who was undefeated at the time. \n“I’m looking forward to November 7. It’s an incredible opportunity to make my mark on the global stage. I know Iglesias is strong and hits hard\, but in our sport\, everyone is beatable. I’m going to train hard to ensure he’s no exception\, and when the fight is over\, the IBO world title will be in my bag on the way home\,” said Ukrainian contender Petro Ivanov\, who has won his last six fights before the final bell. \nIn the co-main event\, Montreal powerhouse Steven ‘Bang Bang’ Butler (34-5-1\, 28 KOs) will make his return to the ring against Argentinian brawler Fernando Farias (12-2-3\, 4 KOs). On a high-caliber undercard\, at 135 lbs\, two-time olympian and EOTTM prospect Dzmitry ‘The Wasp’ Asanau (8-0\, 3 KOs) will compete for his first title\, the WBC Continental Americas belt\, against former world title challenger and Argentine power puncher Matias Rueda (38-2\, 32 KOs). Top prospect Wilkens Mathieu (11-0\, 7 KOs) will also be in action against the super-tough Marcos Karalitzky (8-9-2\, 2 KOs)\, along with Jhon ‘El Tigre’ Orobio (11-0\, 10 KOs)\, who will open the event at 6:30 p.m. in an undefeated prospect clash against Italy’s Jacopo Colli (9-0-1\, 4 KOs).

SUMMARY:Gaumont VS. Viera
DESCRIPTION:The Passing of the Torch\n\nWhen Arthur Biyarslanov said he wouldn’t rest until he reached the top\, he meant it. Known as ‘The Wolf\,’ Biyarslanov will defend his NABF super lightweight title for the second time in two months on October 17 against Argentine veteran Jonathan ‘El Potro’ Eniz. This fight will serve as the co-main event of the Gaumont vs. Zarate clash\, headlining a nine-bout card starting at 6:00 PM on Punching Grace and ESPN+. \n  \n“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I want a shot at the world title. One fight at a time\, but I know I will get that shot in 2025. October 17th will just bring me one step closer to my ultimate goal. I can’t wait!\,” said Biyarslanov (16-0\, 14 KOs)\, ranked 22nd in the WBC super lightweight division. \n  \nHis opponent\, Jonathan Eniz (35-20-1\, 16 KOs)\, brings a wealth of experience\, having logged over 340 professional rounds. Some of those rounds took place in Gatineau\, where the Argentine faced Steve ‘The Dragon’ Claggett in 2022. Never one to shy away from a challenge\, the South American champion has also squared off against former and future world champions\, including Subriel Matias\, and even pulled off a surprise victory over Cesar Cuenca. Eniz will be aiming for his fifth career win over an undefeated fighter when he meets Biyarslanov in the ring. \n  \nIn the main event\, Buckingham’s heavy-hitter Alexandre Gaumont (11-0\, 7 KOs) will look to deliver a career-defining performance in front of his hometown crowd\, as he faces off against Argentine brawler Cristian Zarate (10-4\, 3 KOs). \n  \nAlso featured in the lineup\, Steve ‘The Dragon’ Claggett (38-8-2\, 26 KOs)returns to action for the first time since his world title bout last June. Hungrier than ever\, the Calgary native—currently ranked 15th by the WBC at 140 lbs—will take on tough competitor Eduardo Estela (16-3\, 11 KOs).  \n  \nIn addition\, light heavyweight contender Mehmet Unal (10-0\, 8 KOs) faces the relentless German Armenak Hovhannisyan (14-4-1\, 6 KOs). Montreal’s Luis Santana (12-0\, 6 KOs) seeks his fifth consecutive knockout but faces his toughest challenge yet in Argentina’s Sebastian Aguire (19-5\, 12 KOs). EOTTM prospect Shamil Khataev (12-0-1\, 3 KOs) looks to secure his 13th career win\, and his first in Quebec\, against veteran Cristian Rafael Coria (30-10-2\, 14 KOs). Gatineau’s own warrior\, Pascal Villeneuve (4-2-1\, 2 KOs)\, makes his comeback after more than eight years away from the ring\, taking on Rafael Sosa Pintos (63-19\, 25 KOs). Finally\, kicking off the event\, Moreno Fendero (7-0\, 5 KOs)\, fresh off his KO of the night at the September gala\, aims to repeat his explosive performance against the battle-tested Pavel Albrecht (19-26\, 14 KOs). \n

SUMMARY:Biyarslanov VS. Kiliti
DESCRIPTION:Biyarslanov vs. Kiliti\n\n\nA logistical issue has forced Marcos Villasana to withdraw from his scheduled fight against Arthur Biyarslanov on September 5th. The NABF super lightweight champion will now defend his title against Hungarian champion Tamas Kiliti in a battle of undefeated fighters. The event will take place in front of a sold-out crowd at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal and will also be broadcast on Punching Grace and ESPN+ this Thursday\, starting at 6:30 PM. \n\n“The opponent may change\, but the goal remains the same\,” commented Arthur Biyarslanov (15-0\, 13 KOs)\, ranked 25th in the world by the WBC at 140 lbs\, as he prepares for his first NABF title defense. \n\nFacing him will be an opponent who is clearly not afraid of a challenge. Tamas Kiliti (10-0\, 6 KOs) comes to Quebec undefeated in ten fights\, just like Biyarslanov\, with around forty rounds of professional experience\, and at 29 years old. In 2022\, he won the Hungarian national title in just his fourth fight\, and in May of this year\, he also claimed the UBO Inter-Continental lightweight title. This will be his second fight outside his homeland\, having won in Romania in 2023. \n\nIn the light heavyweight division\, another NABF championship will be contested in the co-main event. IBF #10 and WBC #14 contender Imam Khataev (7-0\, 7 KOs) will face veteran Ezequiel Maderna (31-12\, 21 KOs) in a clash of former Olympians. Canadian Mary Spencer (8-2\, 6 KOs) will fight for the interim WBA world title at 154 lbs against German contender Naomi Mannes (7-2-1\, 4 KOs). \n\nEarlier in the evening\, Montreal’s Christopher Guerrero (11-0\, 6 KOs) will face Brooklyn’s Courtney Pennington (17-8-3\, 7 KOs). Jhon Orobio (10-0\, 9 KOs) will meet Joel Manriquez (6-5). Avery Martin Duval (11-0-1\, 7 KOs) will go toe-to-toe with Jesus Daneff (13-11-4\, 4 KOs). Wilkens Mathieu (10-0\, 6 KOs) will fight veteran Rolando Mansilla (19-15-1\, 9 KOs). And in the opening bout\, Moreno Fendero (6-0\, 4 KOs) will clash with Carlos Ronner (7-4\, 2 KOs).

SUMMARY:Mbilli VS. Derevyanchenko
DESCRIPTION:Mbilli vs. Derevyanchenko\nThe action will be non-stop at Quebec City’s Centre Vidéotron on August 17\, where boxing fans will witness 9 electrifying matchups\, including a potential Fight of the Year in the main event. Headlining the night\, Christian Mbilli (27-0\, 23 KOs) will defend his WBC Continental Americas and WBA International titles against three-time world title challenger Sergiy Derevyanchenko (15-5\, 10 KOs). \nThe evening’s co-main event will feature heavyweight Arslanbek Makhmudov (19-1\, 18 KOs)\, who\, in pursuit of the biggest win of his career\, cannot afford any mistakes. Known as ‘The Lion\,’ and ranked 11th in the world by the WBC\, Makhmudov will face Top Rank’s prospect Guido ‘The Gladiator’ Vianello (12-2-1\, 10 KOs)\, ranked 35th globally. It promises to be a fierce battle\, as Makhmudov aims to silence the Rio Olympic participant who declared in an interview that the Montrealer would be an “easy fight.” \nAnother bout with international stakes: Eye of the Tiger’s protégé\, IBO super middleweight champion\, and WBC #5 and IBF #10 contender\, Osleys ‘El Tornado’ Iglesias (11-0\, 10 KOs)\, will go toe-to-toe with former world title challenger Sena ‘The African Assassin’ Agbeko (28-3\, 22 KOs). Iglesias\, whose last knockout victory went viral worldwide\, faces a significant challenge against a motivated\, more experienced Ghanaian opponent who has never been knocked down in his career. \nRanked 8th globally by the IBF and 11th by the WBC in the super featherweight division\, Leïla Beaudoin (11-1\, 1 KO) has a golden opportunity to make significant progress in the world rankings and move closer to a world championship fight\, as she could claim her first career title. The WBO International Super Featherweight belt will be on the line in her scheduled 10-round bout against former two-time world title challenger\, Bolivian Lizbeth Crespo (15-7\, 4 KOs). \nQuebec City native Wilkens Mathieu (9-0\, 6 KOs) will also face a tough challenge in his second career fight in front of his home crowd as he squares off against the tireless Facundo Galovar (15-11-2\, 9 KOs). Well-known to the Quebec public\, the Argentine has gone the distance with two world title contenders from Eye of the Tiger: Mehmet Unal and Albert Ramirez. \nThe spectacular Thomas ‘The Ghost’ Chabot (10-0\, 8 KOs) will look to continue his streak and win over the Capital Region fans in his first fight in the area as he takes on Matias Ezequiel Guenemil (10-3-1\, 5 KOs)\, who last fought in Quebec in 2022 against Avery Martin Duval. \nTwo of Top Rank’s most exciting American recruits will also be in action on August 17. Regarded as the organization’s top young prospect by its president Bob Arum\, Abdullah Mason (14-0\, 12 KOs) will face Mike ‘Bad Man’ Ohan Jr (19-2\, 9 KOs) in an 8-round bout. Meanwhile\, Queens\, New York’s Jahi Tucker (11-1-1\, 5 KOs) will take on Santiago Fernandez (8-1-1\, 4 KOs)\, who delivered a memorable battle against Alexandre Gaumont in Shawinigan last May. \nFinally\, in the evening’s opener\, two-time Olympian Dzmitry ‘The Wasp’ Asanau (7-0\, 3 KOs) will face former world title challenger Matias ‘Cobrita’ Rueda (38-2\, 32 KOs). Although it is undoubtedly the most important fight of his career\, the new EOTTM recruit will aim to deliver an electrifying performance and win the hearts of the Quebec public.

SUMMARY:Butler VS. Volny
DESCRIPTION:Last man standing\nPatrice Volny has sharply asserted his intention to live up to his nickname “Vicious” on June 6\, setting the stage for one of the most anticipated duels in the country in recent years; a showdown of national significance against Steven “Bang Bang” Butler. The two Montreal titans will clash in the arena of the Cabaret du Casino de Montreal in a bout scheduled for 10 rounds aimed at determining once and for all who owns the town. Furthermore\, with the WBC Francophone middleweight title also on the line\, the winner will once again be propelled onto the world stage. \nThis latest chapter of great Quebec rivalries will be broadcast starting at 7:00 PM on the Punching Grace and ESPN+ channels. \n“We’re talking about a local fight\, an international-scale fight\, and above all\, a fight our fans have been clamoring for for some time\, so we are more than happy to finally offer it to them. For our team\, it also fits into the desire to bring Steven Butler back to the top\, but this time\, by first cleaning up our own backyard\,” says Camille Estephan\, president of the Montreal-based company Eye of the Tiger. \nHis protege\, Quebec slugger Steven Butler (34-4-1\, 28 KOs)\, is on a mission in 2024. Ranked first in Canada at 160 lbs according to Boxrec\, it took him only 65 seconds to defeat the then #2 in the country\, Ontario’s Steve Rolls\, last March. Now that this matter is settled\, “Bang Bang” wants to climb the world rankings again\, and to do so\, he aims to definitively settle the debate with his Canadian\, Quebecois\, and Montreal compatriot\, Patrice Volny. \n“It’s nothing personal\, but our paths cross. I’ll simply show everyone who is the king of the mountain at 160 pounds in Quebec\,” says Steven Butler. \nThe task ahead\, however\, looks daunting\, as while BoxRec considers Butler the 14th best middleweight in the world\, Patrice Volny (18-1\, 12 KOs) closely follows at 20th. Like his rival\, he scored his most significant KO in his last fight\, stopping American DeAndre Ware in the 10th round last February in Halifax. However\, in June\, the former NABA and WBO NABO 160-pound champion will box in Montreal for the first time in nearly seven years\, returning home with the iron will to make an important point: \n“I’m not nicknamed ‘Vicious’ for nothing\,” asserts Patrice Volny\, equally eager to take control of the Quebecois 160-pound mountain… \nOsleys Iglesias\, Arthur Biyarslanov\, Shamil Khataev\, Jhon Orobio\, and Luis Santana will also be in action during this boxing card\, which promises to be explosive.

SUMMARY:Mbilli VS. Heffron
DESCRIPTION:The Conquest : 8 explosive bouts will go down on the 25th of May\nThe eyes of the boxing world will be fixed on Centre Gervais Auto in Shawinigan on May 25 as world contender Christian ‘Solide’ Mbilli (26-0\, 22 KOs) continues his trajectory towards the top against the powerful British slugger Mark ‘Kid Dynamite’ Heffron (30-3-1\, 24 KOs). Already ranked #2 WBC and WBA\, the Quebecer wants to send a powerful message to the boxing world\, reminding everyone that his conquest is imminent. \nFor Mbilli\, defending his WBC Continental Americas and WBA International super-middleweight (168 lb) titles will also be an opportunity to make his name resonate in the vast English sports market. ‘Solide’ has previously knocked out each of the five European opponents who crossed his path\, but will face a first duel against the United Kingdom. \nFor this grand debut\, he will need to beware of Heffron’s power\, a former British and Commonwealth champion who has stopped 80% of his opponents. The pride of Oldham has vowed to add Mbilli to the list\, believing he has what it takes to defeat the best version of the Montrealer. \nAs Mbilli approaches the summit\, Arslanbek Makhmudov (18-1\, 17 KOs) will also aim to bounce back. After his last two outings overseas in Riyadh\, on two of the biggest boxing cards ever organized\, Makhmudov secured the semi-final by returning to the arena for the first time since his heartbreaking defeat last December in Saudi Arabia. \nFor this long-awaited return\, his initial opponent was Oceanian Junior Fa\, but the latter surprised everyone by withdrawing from the fight to announce his retirement. It is thus finally the Serbian giant Miljan Rovcanin (27-3\, 18 KOs) who will try to ruin the “Lion’s” comeback. Standing at 6’4″ and 240 pounds\, Rovcanin has won his last 3 fights since his 2022 defeat at the hands of American rising star Jared Anderson. His only other conqueror? None other than the one who surprised Makhmudov six months earlier\, Agit Kabayel\, in a European championship in 2018. It will therefore be an intriguing\, but also risky\, fight for Makhmudov who – still ranked globally at 12th IBF and 14th WBC – also returns from a double fracture to his right hand. \nIn the light heavyweight division\, Mehmet Unal (9-0\, 7 KOs) will continue his Quebec tour. After fighting in Montreal\, Quebec City\, and Gatineau\, he will make his Mauritian debut in his first scheduled 10-round fight. For the occasion\, he will face the tough Texan brawler\, Rodolfo ‘Cobrita’ Gomez Jr (14-7-3\, 10 KOs)\, never stopped in 24 fights and much better than his record suggests. In his last fight\, he came within a round of surprising Egyptian world contender Ahmed Elbiali\, in addition to going the distance with top prospects such as Lester Martinez\, Diego Pacheco\, and defeating former world champion Ricardo Mayorga. \nSome of the brightest hopes of Quebec boxing will also be in attendance. EOTTM’s 2023 rookie of the year\, Wilkens Mathieu (8-0\, 5 KOs)\, will be in action for what will already be his 4th fight in 2024. In a 6-round bout at 172 pounds\, he will face a veteran unlike any he has yet faced in his young career\, Polish Przemyslaw Gorgon (17-12-2\, 6 KOs). To put things in perspective\, this duel is the very definition of “youth vs. experience\,” with on one side a 19-year-old athlete with 26 rounds of experience and on the other\, a 34-year-old boxer with 152 rounds under his belt. \nMontreal’s Christopher ‘Machine Gun’ Guerrero (10-0\, 5 KOs) will also step into the ring in a bout that could go up to 8 rounds against American Kenny Larson (7-1-1\, 5 KOs). The latter’s only defeat was indeed at the hands of American hopeful Denzel Whitley\, undefeated in 14 fights\, but in a split decision over 10 rounds. Guerrero is determined not only to outdo Whitley but also to become the first man to stop Larson. \nMoreno Fendero (5-0\, 4 KOs) will face Argentine Rolando ‘Peligro’ Mansilla (19-14-1-9 KOs) in a scheduled 6-round bout at 164 pounds. One thing is certain\, the experienced Latin American boxer will not arrive in Mauricie intimidated\, having already fought the world elite on numerous occasions\, including Roamer Angulo\, Rohan Murdock\, Kevin Lele Sadjo\, and most recently Julian Williams. Mansilla’s experience\, however\, is not his only attribute\, as he is still to this day the boxer who stopped Facundo Galovar\, who recently went the distance with two EOTTM proteges: Albert Ramirez and Mehmet Unal. On Fendero’s side\, the French-born hopeful is making his mark in Quebec. ‘Le Soldat’ will be in his 6th fight in less than 9 months since turning professional and moving to Quebec last September. \nIn a duel with a perfect record at stake\, Buckingham’s pride\, Alexandre Gaumont (10-0\, 7 KOs)\, will face Buenos Aires’ Santiago Fernandez (8-0-1\, 4 KOs). The fight will be contested in the middleweight division (160 lb) and is scheduled for 8 rounds. What to expect? Well\, to give you an idea\, the last time Alexandre Gaumont faced an undefeated opponent\, last September\, his victory won the EOTTM Fight of the Year 2023 award\, chosen by boxing fans themselves. In short\, action will not be lacking. \nFinally\, as the curtain-raiser\, in a 4-round bout at 135 pounds\, the powerful\, fast\, agile\, and explosive Jhon ‘El Tigre’ Orobio (8-0\, 8 KOs) will try to extend his more than perfect record to 9. However\, victory and knockout are not guaranteed. His opponent\, Mexican Arturo Gonzalez (13-4-3\, 5 KOs)\, has never been stopped in 20 fights.

SUMMARY:Bazinyan VS. Phinn
DESCRIPTION:Honor at stake\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: Honor at stake: Bazinyan vs. Phinn to clash on May 2nd at the Montreal Casino. \nCurrent NABF super-middleweight champion Erik Bazinyan (32-0\, 23 KOs) will attempt to defend his title for the 7th time in a local fight with global implications against Shakeel Phinn (26-3-1\, 17 KOs). Pitting the best of the North Crown against that of the South Crown of the Quebec metropolis\, this duel\, fought for the honor of the province\, is scheduled for 10 rounds and will take place on May 2nd at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal. The full card will be broadcast live on Punching Grace and ESPN+ starting at 7:00 PM. \nThe 168 lb division is undoubtedly one of the most competitive and exciting divisions currently. Therefore\, with the idea of offering boxing fans an exciting fight featuring two local athletes\, Montreal promoter Eye of the Tiger confirms the bout between his boxer\, current #2 WBA\, #3 WBC\, #3 WBO\, and #5 IBF contender\, Erik Bazinyan\, and the man nicknamed “The Jamaican Juggernaut\,” Shakeel Phinn. As Camille Estephan\, president of EOTTM\, points out\, the objective is to offer an exciting evening while also keeping his protégé active; \n“For us\, it’s out of the question for Erik to wait without fighting because of the bottleneck created by the current world champion\, Canelo Alvarez. So we continue our journey while seeking challenges for him\, and Shakeel Phinn is definitely one of them. I tip my hat to them for accepting the challenge because obviously\, the aspect of a local fight adds a lot of emotions. Boxing fans\, who demand these duels between the best in the country\, will certainly be the big winners. I can’t wait for this evening!” \nCurrently in a very favorable position in the rankings of the four federations and holding the NABF title in the division\, Erik Bazinyan must stay ready for any significant fight that may arise this year. It is therefore essential for him to maintain his current momentum. Since his fight against Ronald Ellis in October 2023\, which ended with a resounding knockout in the 6th round\, “Bzo” has sent a clear message to the division. He then dominated veteran Billie Facundo Godoy\, stopping him even earlier than anyone before\, ending the fight in the 3rd round. In short\, the Armenian-Canadian has reached another level in the past year\, demonstrating that his determination to win knows no bounds; \n“Phinn is a good fighter\, I’ve been training with him since the amateur ranks\, 11 years ago now. I respect him\, but it’s a sport\, and once in the ring\, there’s no more friendship. Believe me\, we will deliver quite a war! I will train very hard to keep my perfect record and take one step closer to the world title\,” says Erik Bazinyan. \nShakeel Phinn\, who also trains in Montreal\, but with Ian McKillop\, has not fought in the region since 2022. So\, for him\, it’s a return in front of a crowd where he will undoubtedly benefit from the support of many fans. Currently on a streak of five consecutive victories\, it is highly likely that Phinn will give everything he has in the ring to win the belt and Bazinyan’s rankings. Accustomed to going rounds and holding his own\, the Jamaican-Canadian can also cause an upset\, as he did in his last fight by knocking out his opponent in the first round. His rebellious and opportunistic side in the ring can be dangerous. \n“I’m delighted to have accepted this fight\, especially since it will be in Montreal. I haven’t fought here in front of my supporters for 2 years\, so when I was confirmed that it would be at the Casino\, I was doubly happy. I’ve had some great victories there; I love that venue. Fighting against Erik represents an excellent opportunity especially since we are #1 and 2 in Canada. It will undoubtedly be a fight that boxing fans will enjoy\,” adds Shakeel Phinn

SUMMARY:Bazinyan VS. Godoy
DESCRIPTION:A big hit at the Montreal Casino\nFor its second stop on the 2024 calendar\, Eye of the Tiger will present on January 25\, at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal\, an event that promises to be very impactful while world contender Erik Bazinyan will face veteran Billi Facundo Godoy for the NABF and WBA Continental North America titles and that Albert Ramirez will come to Quebec for the first time to face Artur Ziyatdinov. \nIn recent years\, Erik Bazinyan (31-0\, 22 KOs) has conquered the rankings by breaking into the top 5 of each federation. Currently ranked #2 WBA\, #3 WBC\, #3 WBO as well as #4 IBF\, the boxer of Armenian origin established in Montreal\, fought 3 duels in 2023 and each of them pushed him to raise his game a step further. notch. He started the year by facing an Alantez Fox coming off a world championship fight. The fight was not easy\, but the strength of character of “Bzo” allowed him to achieve a victory in 10 rounds. To end the year 2023 strong\, last October\, he won powerfully against Ronald Ellis by knocking him out. faster than anyone before\, thus signing his 31st career victory. To start 2024\, he will face the Argentinian veteran\, Billi Facundo Godoy (41-7\, 20 KOs)\, renowned for his ability to take on; \n“Despite the fact that Erik is ranked in the top 5 of all associations\, it is important to keep him active while selecting opponents who will allow him to continue his progress\, and that is exactly what Godoy represents. The Argentinian notably resisted the charges of John Ryder for 10 rounds\, which is no small thing. So it will be an interesting challenge for us\,” emphasizes Bazinyan’s coach and EOTTM development director\, Marc Ramsay. \nBilli Facundo Godoy is not the latest addition; he has more considerable experience among professionals than Ramsay’s protégé. It is with 48 fights and 299 rounds of boxing under his belt that he will come to Montreal to try to take the NABF title from Bazinyan\, in addition to trying to get his hands on the WBA Continental North America title. The latter must therefore be strategic\, precise and powerful to impose itself on “El Nino”. \nIn the evening’s semi-final\, EOTTM supporters will be able to see one of the organization’s new recruits\, light heavyweight Albert Ramirez (17-0\, 15 KOs)\, who will fight for the first time time on Quebec soil in a duel with a local flavor opposing him to Montrealer and former EOTTM boxer Artur Ziyatdinov (15-1\, 12 KOs).

SUMMARY:Beterbiev VS. Smith
DESCRIPTION:The Unified light-heavyweight world championship\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: Unified light-heavyweight world championship : Beterbiev vs. Smith. \nThe Videotron Centre will host one of the most pivotal fights of Québec boxing in recent years on Saturday\, August 19\, when Québec adoptee Artur Beterbiev\, the unified WBC\, WBO and IBF light-heavyweight champion of the world\, will defend his belts against #1 WBC contender Callum Smith. The 12-round bout\, broadcast on ESPN and Punching Grace\, will be the headliner of the gala organized by Eye of the Tiger\, in partnership with Top Rank and Matchroom Boxing. \nThe president of Eye of the Tiger didn’t even blink when deciding where to hold this championship event. Québec is a sure bet for international events\, and is no stranger to high- profile fights\, having hosted Jean Pascal vs. Bernard Hopkins in 2010\, Lucian Bute vs. Glen Johnson in 2011\, and Bute vs. James DeGale in 2015. \nThe August 19 event will be particularly significant for Artur Beterbiev (19-0\, 19 KOs)\, who has not fought in Québec since he defended his North American IBF title in 2015 against Gabriel Campillo. “Québec is my second home\, so I’m very happy to finally defend my titles on home turf”. \nSince then\, the world WBC\, IBF and WBO champion has delivered victories in quick succession all over the world\, becoming one of the best pound-for-pound boxers anywhere. None of his adversaries\, managed to overcome the immeasurable strength of the right-hander who has an imposing KO ratio of 100%. \n“One of the sport’s hardest hitters\, Artur Beterbiev will continue his conquest on August 19 in beautiful Québec City\, in a duel that is sure to be memorable\,” states Top Rank president Bob Arum. “Callum Smith has earned his spot as top contender and will not be intimidated by fighting in enemy territory\, on Artur’s home turf”. \nArtur Beterbiev knows that many fighters would like to dethrone him. True to the process that has never failed to take him to the top\, Marc Ramsay’s protégé has started to prepare for this fight with rigour\, discipline and determination. “When you’re world champion\, everyone wants the opportunity to take your belt\, and that’s especially true in my case\, with three titles at stake. I’ve already started my training camp and I’ll be ready to not only defend my belt\, but also to put on an impressive show on August 19\,” asserts Beterbiev. \nFormer WBA light-heavyweight world champion Callum Smith (29-1\, 21 KOs) will be the latest to try to stop the champion in his tracks. Smith\, whose only loss was a unanimous decision against Mexican Saul “Canelo” Alvarez\, will be the biggest challenge of Beterbiev’s career. Not only has the Brit shown he can roll with the punches\, but he also has the physical advantages of towering at 6’3” and having an enviable reach. \n“Having boxed abroad on many occasions\, including in Saudi Arabia and the United States\, I didn’t hesitate for a second when I was given the opportunity to confront Beterbiev in Québec. This is my chance to become world champion of two divisions\, and I fully intend to bring the belts home with me to Liverpool\,” adds Smith. \nThe full card for the #BeterbievSmith event will be released at a later date\, but we have already confirmed the participation of Christian Mbilli (24-0\, 20 KOs)\, WBC Continental of the Americas super-middleweight champion and current #1 in the WBC World ranking\, and of Simon Kean (23-1\, 22 KOs). Wilkens Mathieu (2-0\, 1 KOs) and Leïla Beaudoin (9-1\, 1 KO) will also be fighting in their home town for the first time.

SUMMARY:Claggett VS. Madueno
DESCRIPTION:The Dragon is back\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: Claggett defends his NABF title against Madueno and Butler back in the ring! \nThe WBO’s #10 contender in the lightweight division\, Miguel Madueno\, will step onto Quebecois soil on November 14 with the firm intention of causing an upset and seizing Steve Claggett‘s NABF title\, known as the ‘Dragon.’ This is what ‘explosivo\,’ as he is nicknamed due to his impressive punching power\, declared ahead of their duel\, which will take place at the Cabaret du Casino de Montreal\, during an evening that will also feature Montreal’s hard-hitting Steven Butler. \nRenowned for the thrilling performances he delivers in all his fights\, Albertan Steve Claggett (36-7-2\, 25 KOs) has made significant progress in the world rankings since winning and defending his NABF title\, which has propelled him to the 15th spot in the WBC rankings.

SUMMARY:Spencer VS. Hermans
DESCRIPTION:The moment of truth\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: Mary Spencer face Femke Hermans in IBF and IBO World Championship. \nMary Spencer will have the opportunity to avenge her only career defeat inflicted on her last December by the Belgian Femke Hermans\, as the IBO world title slipped through her fingers. The stakes are high for the EOTTM protégée\, who will now have the chance to claim the vacant IBF world championship belt at 154 lbs. The showdown\, set to take place on October 11 at the Casino de Montreal\, promises to be highly explosive. Both athletes are deeply determined\, and each of them will give everything they have to come out victorious in this rematch. \nFollowing this heartbreaking loss\, Mary Spencer (7-1\, 5 KOs) showed great resilience and made significant changes within her team and training methodology.

SUMMARY:Bazinyan VS. Macias
DESCRIPTION:A smashing night\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: A smashing night: Bazinyan faces Macias for NABA and NABF titles. \nJose de Jesus Macias\, who has beaten both Francis Lafrenière and Steven Butler\, will attempt to extend his winning streak on June 1 at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal\, and snatch the NABF and NABA super-middleweight belts from Erik “BZO” Bazinyan in a scheduled 10-rounder. The event\, which will be simulcast on Punching Grace\, and on ESPN+ in the USA\, will also feature Steve Claggett facing off against Julian Rodriguez for the NABA super-lightweight title\, and Mary Spencer facing off against Adriana Dos Santos Araujo. \n Erik Bazinyan (29-0\, 21 KOs) is embarking upon a crucial new chapter in his career; his latest performances\, notably those against Marcelo Coceres and Alantez Fox\, have allowed him to nab a spot in the top-10 of several federations and brought him that much closer to a world championship fight in the coming months. Currently ranked 3rd in the WBC’s\, 2nd in the WBO’s and WBA’s\, the EOTTM protégé is well aware of the danger of confronting Macias at this point in his career\, but is also confident that the Mexican boxer will not be able to stand in his way. \n“Macias fractured Zewski’s jaw and gave Butler and Lafrenière a run for their money. He’s a solid opponent. But I’m younger\, I’m faster\, I’m technically strong\, and I’ll show him my ring smarts when I confront him. I’m going to learn a lot from this fight\, and it’ll be one more step toward big American bouts this year.” \nJose de Jesus Macias (28-11-4\, 14 KOs)\, who attended the Mbilli vs Gongora duel at the Casino de Montréal last March 23\, couldn’t hold back from trash-talking Bazinyan ringside\, declaring “I broke Zewski’s jaw\, I sent Butler to the mat\, and I’m going to rip off Erik Bazinyan’s head. I’m serious; I’m coming for him and for his rankings!” \n Jose de Jesus Macias boasts an impressive record of more than 250 professional fights. In addition to offering some amazing performances against Quebecois boxers\, “El Changuito” has also gone the limit against excellent pugilists in his division\, such as Erickson Lubin and Souleymane Cissokho. He has been around the block and has enough experience to go the distance with Bazinyan. Marc Ramsay\, director of development at EOTTM and Erik’s trainer\, thinks Macias will be a tough opponent: “Jose de Jesus Macias is a nightmare for all professional boxers. He has great punching power and impressive stamina. In his last fight\, he was a worthy adversary for super prospect Pavel Silyagin. He’ll be an excellent challenge for Erik.” \nSince he’s started working with trainer Mike Moffa\, Steve “The Dragon” Claggett (34-7-2\, 24 KOs) has been dazzling boxing aficionados with his explosive performances and veritable wars against his opponents. The Alberta native will be trying not only for a 6th victory in a row\, but also to snatch the NABA super-lightweight belt from American Julian Rodriguez (22-1\, 14 KOs) so as to continue his climb in the world rankings. \nHaving gotten the green light from the specialists for her hand injury\, Mary Spencer (7-1\, 5 KOs) is now fit to leap back into the ring on June 1 to finally confront Brazil’s Adriana Dos Santos Araujo (6-1\, 1 KO) after their March bout had to be postponed. This will be Spencer’s first match following her defeat in December 2022. \nThe complete #BazinyanMacias event card\, which will also feature Thomas Chabot (8-0\, 7 KOs)\, Alexandre Gaumont (7-0\, 5 KOs)\, Wilkens Mathieu (2-0\, 1 KO)\, as well as Mehmet Nadir Unal (3-0\, 3 KOs) will be announced shortly. Tickets will be on sale on Ticketmaster at www.ticketmaster.ca as of Thursday\, April 6 at 9:00 am.

SUMMARY:Ramirez VS. Luna
DESCRIPTION:Commando returns in Mexico\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: Commando Series returns to Mexico to mark Alberto Ramirez debut with EOTTM. \nSee the new recruit of EOTTM Alberto Ramirez in the final of this Commando gala to mark the “Cinco de Mayo” in Cuernavaca. \nEye of the Tiger will storm the city of Cuernavaca in Mexico for a fifth time\, with this event’s Commando featuring Mehmet Nadir Unal\, Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse\, Leïla Beaudoin as well as the new recruit of EOTTM\, the WBA’s world #6 light heavyweight\, Albert Ramirez. The event\, which will be presented on May 5 in association with HC Promotions\, will be broadcast live on the Punching Grace network starting at 7:30 p.m. – Quebec time. \nVenezuelan southpaw and 2016 Olympian Albert Ramirez (15-0\, 14 KOs) will make his first fight within Eye of the Tiger’s ranks as he takes on Ricardo Adrian Luna (25-9-2\, 16 KOs) in a bout scheduled for 10 rounds. Renowned for his devastating power that has wreaked havoc since his professional debut in 2018\, Ramirez is currently ranked No. 6 in the WBA\, #11 in the WBO and #15 in the WBC. He thus represents an important acquisition for the Montreal promoter who intends to make him progress quickly towards championship fights. \nThe athlete from Témiscouata Leïla Beaudoin (9-0\, 1 KO) had a flourishing year in 2022. The one who is currently ranked first in her division in Canada in addition to having pierced the top 5 in the world at 130 lbs according to BoxRec\, hopes to solidify her position in the rankings with her performance on May 5 against Elizabeth Chavez Espinoza (3 -4-3\, 1 KO). \nOutaouais born Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse (4-1\, 1 KO) offered a powerful performance on March 23 after a little over 5 years of absence while dominating her opponent\, Princess Hairston. For her second fight since her association with EOTTM\, she will face Giovanna Gonzalez (3-3\, 1 KO) in a fight scheduled for 6 rounds. \nMehmet Nadir Unal (3-0\, 3 KOs) is forging a reputation as a heavy puncher with his 3 victories by KO in the light heavyweight division. Marc Ramsay’s protege started boxing at the age of 14 and progressed on the national and international scene until earning a place on the Turkish national team for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. On May 5\, he will try to add a 4th victory since his professional debut in July 2021 where he is set to face Argentinian Roberto Dionicio Moreno (13-11-1\, 2 KOs).

SUMMARY:Mbilli VS. Gongora
DESCRIPTION:Two heavy-hitters collide\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: Mbilli v. Gongora for WBC Continental Americas and WBA International titles. \nAfter impressing boxing fans in 2022 with explosive performances that propelled him to the peak of the rankings\, Christian Mbilli (23-0\, 20 KOs) is looking to continue his success in 2023. Next March 23\, he will confront his first adversary of the year\, as he puts his WBC and WBA International Continental of the Americas titles on the line against heavy- hitter Carlos Gongora (21-1\, 16 KOs) in the grand finale of a Cabaret du Casino de Montréal event\, simulcast starting at 7:00 pm on www.punchinggrace.com. \nThanks to his powerful KO of Nadjib Mohammedi that went viral\, his decisive second-round victory against DeAndre Ware\, and his win in an intense 10- rounder against Vaughn Alexander in France last December\, Christian Mbilli finds himself 2nd in the WBC rankings\, 5th in the WBA rankings\, and 7th in the IBO rankings. In addition\, he is ranked 5th worldwide by the prestigious Ring Magazine. 2023 will be a pivotal year for his development and for his quest for a word championship fight\, and his opponents will leave him very little room for error. \nGongora’s impressive ring smarts\, acquired as an amateur in two Pan-American Games\, in 2007 and in 2011\, and in the 2008 Olympics\, were a solid foundation for his professional career. He won the world IBO super-middleweight title against rising star Ali Akhmedov\, and held it until December 2021\, when he lost a split decision in an explosive duel against Lerrone Richards. Currently ranked \n8th in the world by BoxRec\, the native of Ecuador is a force to be reckoned with and just as feared as Mbilli in their division at the moment. This fight could go either way\, but one thing for sure is that it will be electrifying for the fans at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal. \nIn the semi-final\, Simon Kean (22-1\, 21 KOs) will confront American Eric Molina (29-8\, 21 KOs) in a battle that is sure to be intense\, given both boxers’ striking power. Details of the undercard featuring Mary Spencer (7-1\, 5 KOs)\, Steve Claggett (33-7-2\, 23 KOs)\, Leïla Beaudoin (8-0\, 1 KO)\, and Luis Santana (8-0\, 2 KOs) will be revealed shortly.

SUMMARY:Bazinyan VS. Fox
DESCRIPTION:A smashing start to the year for EOTTM\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: A smashing start to the year for EOTTM and Quebec boxing with Bazinyan vs Fox! \nErik Bazinyan and Yves Ulysse Jr. will kick off Eye of the Tiger’s 2023 program as they headline the gala on Thursday\, February 2nd at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal\, along with Raphaël Courchesne\, Christopher Guerrero\, Alexandre Gaumont\, Avery Martin-Duval and EOTTM’s newest recruit\, Wilkens Mathieu. \n“The year 2023 looks very promising for EOTTM as 6 of our athletes have broken into the top 15 in their respective divisions and are knocking on the door of major fights”\, notes EOTTM’s Managing Director\, Antonin Décarie. “The next few fights will be decisive in their careers\, that’s why we’ve stepped up the adversity for the coming year to make sure they have the tools and are ready for all the challenges that will come their way in the next few months. \nAn interesting challenge awaits EOTTM protégé Erik Bazinyan (28-0\, 21 K.O.) in his return to the ring following the fight he had to cancel last October\, as he defends his NABF and NABA titles against experienced American boxer Alantez Fox (28-3-1\, 13 K.O.) in a scheduled 10-round super middleweight bout. At 6’4”\, Fox has the physical advantage in terms of height and reach as well as the stamina to be competitive throughout the rounds. These assets will force Bazinyan to remain organized and strategic throughout the fight. As the Quebecer by adoption also mentions\, this fight is all the more important for him since the death of his father last July: \n“This is a very important and special fight for me because I lost my father a few months ago and this will be my first fight without him by my side. It’s a great motivation for me mentally and I know that nothing can beat me. On February 2nd\, I want to prove that I belong in the world class fights”\, says Erik Bazinyan. \nIn the semifinals of the evening\, Yves Ulysse Jr (22-2\, 12 K.-O.) will be making his first fight of the year following his 2 excellent performances in 2022. Ulysse is happy to be back fighting in front of a partisan crowd. The card also features the return of Raphaël Courchesne (9-1\, 4KOs). The Maskoutain will be back in the ring after a little over a year of absence and promises to honor his nickname “Bad Intentions”! In addition to these talented pugilists\, you will have the chance to see the professional debut of EOTTM’s new recruit\, Wilkens Mathieu! After a successful amateur career with a record of (30-2\, 4K.-O.)\, Wilkens has decided to make the jump to the professional scene. To complete the card\, Christopher Guerrero (5-0\, 1K.-O.) will be making his sixth fight. Alexandre Gaumont (6-0\, 4K.-O.)\, the pride of Gatineau will be fighting his 7th fight\, and Avery Martin-Duval (8-0-1\, 4K.-O.) will be fighting his 10th fight. \n

SUMMARY:Makhmudov VS. Wallisch
DESCRIPTION:A storm will hit Shawinigan\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: A storm will hit Shawinigan with Makhmudov vs Wallisch in the final! \nA storm will hit Shawinigan on December 16th as the Eye of the Tiger headliners join forces to present one of the most impressive boxing cards in the history of the Montreal organization. Arslanbek Makhmudov\, Simon Kean\, Steven Butler\, Mary Spencer\, Thomas Chabot\, Leila Beaudoin and Alexandre Gaumont will set the stage for this year-end celebration presented by EOTTM in association with the Shawinigan Cataractes at the Centre Gervais Auto. \nNamed “Champion of the Year” by the NABF and currently ranked 4th in the world by the WBC\, the holder of the WBC Silver\, NABF and NABA heavyweight belts Arslanbek Makhmudov (15-0\, 14 K.O.) will face an opponent with a physique as imposing as his own\, that is\, the German boxer Michael Wallisch (23-5\, 16 K.O.). Wallisch seizes the opportunity to get his hands on the 2 titles at stake and promises a surprising performance against the “Lion”! He has faced big names in the elite such as Joe Joyce\, Murat Gassiev and Efe Ajagba\, and will try to capitalize on his experience to impose his rhythm in the fight. \nThe goal was clear for Olympian and three-time world amateur champion Mary Spencer (7-0\, 5 KOs) when she made the jump to the pros and joined Eye of the Tiger: to move up the world rankings quickly in order to get a world championship fight in the near future. In her 8th pro fight\, the EOTTM protégé currently ranked #1 in the world in the IBO will have the opportunity to realize her dream of capturing the vacant International Boxing Organization (IBO) super middleweight world belt when she takes on #12 contender Femke Hermans (13-4\, 5 KOs) of Belgium. \nMeanwhile\, Steven Butler (31-3-1\, 26 K.O.) will look to continue his winning ways as he defends his NABF belt against American rookie Joshua Conley (17-4-1\, 11 K.O.). “Grizzly” Simon Kean (21-1\, 20 K.O.) will make his first fight on ESPN+ following the announcement of his co-promotion with Top Rank. Buckingham native Alexandre Gaumont (5-0\, 3 K.O.) who recently won by first round knockout will also take part in the card. Thomas Chabot (7-0\, 7 K.-O.)\, Leïla Beaudoin (7-0\, 1 K.-O.) and Luis Santana (7-0\, 2 K.-O.) will also be present to show off their skills.

They are thrilled to present their latest event\, in conjunction with Loto-Québec\, at the Casino Lac-Leamy\, which\, over the years\, has become a longstanding partner. \n“Our events have enjoyed resounding success outside of urban centres\, and the support we’ve had from people here\, city administrators and local businesses indicate that the time is right to hold galas all over Québec\,” says EOTTM president Antonin Décarie. “Because Loto-Québec has been instrumental in promoting boxing in Québec and has contributed to the development of our boxers over the years\, we absolutely insisted on developing this project with them\,” he adds. \n“Loto-Québec is a longstanding partner of Eye of the Tiger\, and we are thrilled to announce the October 27 gala at the Théâtre du Casino du Lac-Leamy. We’re sure it will delight Outaouais boxing fans\, and we hope this will be the first of many events at our venue\,” indicates Patrick Lamy\, general manager of the Casino Lac-Leamy. \nProudly representing their hometowns of Buckingham and Gatineau\, Alexandre Gaumont and Harley-David O’Reilly are elated at the idea of fighting on home turf\, and they hope that local boxing fans will show up in droves to cheer them on. “I’m very proud to contribute to the return of boxing in my region. When I was younger\, I’d attend every single local pro boxing event. Now it’s my turn and I’ll do everything I can to bring the crowd to its feet. I’m more motivated than ever\, and on October 27\, I’ll give it my all in the ring to give you all an unforgettable performance\,” claims Gaumont. \nO’Reilly\, for his part\, says\, “I’ve always dreamed of being a pro boxer and I’ve paid my dues at the amateur level\, so when I heard that there was an event planned in Gatineau\, I knew that it was now or never and I had to seize the day! Reaching this milestone before a hometown crowd is really special for me. This will be an experience that I’ll cherish all my life\,” adds O’Reilly.

SUMMARY:Makhmudov VS. Takam
DESCRIPTION:Shock duels for an all-powerful event\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present:  Shock duels for an all-powerful event with Makhmudov and Butler in action. \nHeavyweight Arslanbek Makhmudov (14-0\, 14 KOs) defends his NABF title against veteran Carlos Takam (39-6-1\, 28 KOs). The NABF middleweight title will also be on the line when Steven Butler (30-3-1\, 25 KOs) confronts American Mark DeLuca (28-3\, 16 KOs) in the event semi-final at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal\, simulcast on the Punching Grace Network starting at 7:00 pm. \nCurrently ranked 7th in the WBC classification and 6th in the WBA\, Arslanbek Makhmudov has continued to scale the ranks of the heavyweight division with stellar back-to-back performances. While his last victorious duel against 6’7’’ Mariusz Wach of Poland\, whom he stopped in the 6th round\, allowed him to maintain his imposing KO ratio\, it also has made it that much harder to find him opponents. \n“Finding an athlete who’ll step into the ring with Makhmudov and compel him to improve is almost impossible. While we’re proud to present this duel of international calibre to our fans\, we are sitting on the edge of our seats as to its outcome. Carlos Takam is an experienced\, seasoned boxer who packs a punch powerful enough to give Mahkmudov a run for his money. September 16 will be a crucial step in Mahkmudov’s evolution. We invite all boxing fans to be with us for the event”\, states Antonin Décarie\, general manager at EOTTM. \nCarlos Takam has fought 245 rounds in 46 bouts\, and maintained a KO ratio of 60%. The Camerounian athlete has faced off against some of the division’s biggest names: he’s gone the distance with New Zealand heavy-hitter Joseph Parker\, challenged Anthony Joshua for the IBF\, IBO and WBA titles\, gone toe-to-toe with Derek Chisora\, and defeated Jerry Forrest. These fights have allowed him to acquire valuable international experience and show him to be a fighter who gives as good as he gets. The “Lion” will certainly face a formidable opponent on September 16. \nSteven Butler has shown steady progress\, and demonstrated remarkable maturity on June 23 as he battled Brandon Brewer and ultimately won the NABF middleweight belt. The Montreal slugger\, in peak physical condition\, adroitly channeled his energy to deliver a constant volley of blows throughout 10 electrifying rounds\, in front of thrilled fans who looked on with bated breath.  \nMark DeLuca\, just as tough\, opportunistic and hardy as Brewer\, presents quite a challenge to the EOTTM protegé\, who will have to think on his feet to impose his own rhythm on his opponent. Well aware of the danger that Butler poses with his explosive style and punching power\, the Massachusetts southpaw claims to have faith in his skill and be ready to capture the NABF title. \nIn addition to the two main bouts\, the event will showcase Thomas Chabot (6-0\, 6 KOs)\, who steps back into the ring for the first time since February in a quest for his 7th victory in as many fights. In addition\, this will be the 5th fight for both Buckingham boxer Alexandre Gaumont (4-0\, 2 KOs) and Hamza Khabbaz (4-0\, 1 KOs). Jean Gardy François (2-0\, 2 KOs) will try for a KO hat trick\, while Martine Vallières-Bisson (5-1\, 1 KO) will return to the ring for the first time since her defeat at the hands of Laura Grzyb of Poland.

SUMMARY:Mbilli VS. Ware
DESCRIPTION:Two titles on the line for the main attraction\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: Christian Mbilli v. DeAndre Ware and 2 titles on the line for the main attraction. \nChristian “Solid” Mbilli (21-0\, 19KOs) is out to dominate the 168 lb. weight category and plans on making a statement on September 9 as he fights his way to the top to claim a second title belt. The Eye of the Tiger protegé will face off against American DeAndre Ware (15-3-2\,9KOs) for the WBC Continentalof the Americas belt as well as the WBA super-middleweight belt\, crowning the event at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal. \n5th in the prestigious Ring Magazine ranking and 3rd according in the WBC ranking\, Christian Mbilli’s enjoying a meteoric and well-deserved rise to the top of the rankings. Last March\, Mbilli gave an explosive performance by knocking out Nadjib Mohammedi in the 5th round. This spectacular win laid the ground work for his defence of the WBC Continental of the Americas title a second time\, following his victory by unanimous decision against seasoned American Ronald Ellis. This last clash was Mbilli’s greatest career challenge\, and he passed with flying colours\, dominating every single round. \n“My strategy is to position myself as the one to beat\, the ultimate challenger\, in the 168-lb category\, and I’m putting in the time at the gym to make sure I’m ready. I don’t care who’s standing in front of me in the ring; I’m giving it my all in my quest for victory\, and DeAndre Ware won’t stop me. I’m headed for my glory days and I plan to keep moving forward”\, asserts Christian Mbilli. \nAlthough he’s largely flying under the super-middleweight radar right now\, DeAndre Ware boasts a well-rounded record that clearly reveals a versatile and strategic boxer who will prove to be a formidable opponent for Mbilli\, who\, notably\, enjoyed a definitive win against Ronald Ellis by majority decision\, allowing him to lay claim to the WBC Continental of the Americas and NABA-USA titles. \n“We expect Christian to showcase his ability to adapt to any situation but stay focused on the game plan. Ware is a boxer who can force Mbilli to adapt. He proved to be a formidable opponent against Ellis; he’s skillful and fast\, and he’s exactly what we’re looking for to challenge Christian on his way to an eventual world championship\,” notes Christian Mbilli’s trainer\, Marc Ramsay.  \nThe event’s semi-final will feature Simon Kean (21-1\, 20KOs) in his comeback against Shawndell Terence Winters\, whom he knocked out in February in the 9th round. To her fans’ delight\, Mary Spencer (6-0\, 4KOs) also leaps back into the ring after delivering an unforgettable performance on June 23 by knocking ex-world-champion Chris Namus to the ground three times in quick succession in the first round of a fight that was stopped by the referee. Luis Santana (6-0\, 2KOs)\, Leïla Beaudoin (6-0\, 1KO)\, Avery Martin-Duval (7-0-1\, 4KOs) and Christopher Guerrero (3-0) will also take part in the event.

SUMMARY:Luis VS. Claggett
DESCRIPTION:A classic crossroad fight\nLIVECO and Punching Grace present : Tony Luis and Steve Claggett clash in classic crossroads fight. \nFor Cornwall boxer Tony Luis and Calgary’s Steve Claggett\, there’s a bright light beckoning from the horizon. There also is darkness. \nFew things are as intensely motivational as a “crossroads fight” – a showdown likely to rejuvenate the winner\, and perhaps end the career of the loser – an accurate description of the August 6th collision between Canadian super lightweights who have been circling each other for years. \nLuis (29-5\, 10 knockouts) will be in his hometown arena\, the Cornwall Civic Complex\, to face Claggett (31-7-2\, with 21 KOs) in the main event of a multi-fight card on August 6th\, promoted by Liveco Boxing Inc. An action-packed undercard will be announced shortly. \n“Every person I’ve talked to says the same thing: ‘Wow\, what a great matchup!’ And it really is\,” said promoter Denis Benoit\, CEO of Liveco Boxing. “The winner will get yet-another big opportunity to compete on the world stage\, but we may never see the loser in the ring again.” \nThe 34-year-old Luis is seeking redemption since suffering a highly controversial decision loss to undefeated John Bauza (now 17-0) at Madison Square Garden back on March 19th of this year. \n“In my last fight against Bauza\, I wanted to show what I can still do with a healthy body\,” said Luis. “I think I\, and the fans\, deserved a much better outcome. But the way my style will mesh with Claggett’s\, I don’t see any loser here. And the biggest winners will be the fans\,” added Luis. \nClaggett has stayed quite active over the past few years\, winning a technical decision over David Theroux (16-3) in November 2020\, suffering a split-decision loss to Mathieu Germain (18-2-1) in May 2021\, and back-to-back knockout wins against Emanuel Lopez (30-13-1) in August 2021 and Sebastien Ezequiel Aguirre this past March. \n“This is a great fight for Canadian boxing – two warriors who have proven their heart and are both still fighting after a decade in one of the toughest sports on earth\,” said the 33-year-old\, who turned pro in 2008 – the same year as Luis. \n“Now we get to see who has been working harder\, who has put in the effort\, and who can pull it off when the bell rings\,” Claggett added. “This fight has been building for a long time\, and there will be no backing down. Let’s see who wants it more.” \nBoth fighters favor an aggressive\, straight-forward style\, likely to result in a memorable war. \n“Claggett and I have had similar career paths – beating the odds\, making our way as road warriors\, and competing at a world-class level with our backs against the wall\,” Luis said. “I think we always knew this day would come; we just never knew when. Now we do.”

SUMMARY:Bazinyan VS. Coceres
DESCRIPTION:EOTTM celebrates the national holiday in style on June 23rd!\nFor the National Day celebrations\, EOTTM promises fireworks in the ring! Steven Butler will face Brandon Brewer for the NABF title! \n To launch Québec’s Fête Nationale with a bang\, Eye of the Tiger will feature its next event on Thursday\, June 23\, with an exciting evening of boxing filled with fireworks at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal. Erik Bazinyan (27-0\, 21 KOs)\, Artem Oganesyan (13-0\, 11 KOs)\, and Yves Ulysse Jr. (20-2\, 11 KOs) will fill the ring with dynamite performances\, while Steven Butler (29-3-1\, 25 KOs) will confront Brandon Brewer (25-1-2\, 11 KOs). To enhance this fight\, the winner of this duel will have the chance to win the NABF middleweight title which will then be on the line. \nEOTTM did not choose an adversary of Brandon Brewer’s calibre at random. The New Brunswick native boxes with an offensive yet intricate style while remaining powerful and unyielding; until now\, he remains unstoppable. He will force Butler to remain disciplined and strategic for the entire fight\, according to Butler’s team. “Brewer can not only roll with the punches\, he is also a pro-active boxer who will certainly provide us with challenging rounds. Our goal is to make sure that Steven can maintain the power and intensity in the final rounds that he displays at the beginning of the fight. We’re facing a highly qualified opponent but I have no doubt that Steven will be up to the task\,” asserts Butler’s trainer\, Rénald Boisvert. \nSteven “Bang Bang” Butler\, fresh from his 29th career win on March 3\, where he delivered a third-round KO to Hector Manuel Zepeda\, is very much aware of the danger that Brewer represents at this pivotal point in his career\, but he fully intends to live up to his nickname and end the feud between them in a spectacular manner…with a bang! “I’m more determined then ever to continue my rise to the top. Nothing personal\, but I intend to put Brewer in a world of pain. He’s in my way right now\, and I intend to continue to move forward\,” adds Butler. \nButler and Brewer agree on one thing; they do not plan to prolong hostilities until the decision on June 23: “I’ve been looking for an opportunity my entire career to fight in front of the Quebec fans. Montreal is the Mecca of Boxing in Canada and I’m really excited to put on a show with Steven Butler June 23rd. This is a life changing opportunity for me. So\, I will ensure that the judges do not have anything to do with the outcome of this fight. Someone is getting knocked out. It’s that simple. I will not let it go to the judges\, whether it’s him or me on the canvas. The fans are really going to get their moneys worth the moment I get into that ring. We will steal the show on June 23rd. See you soon Steven. ” \nCurrently ranked 5th in the WBA world classification\, the NABF super middleweight titleholder Erik “BZO” Bazinyan will defend his title for a second time. Artem “Razor” Oganesyan will jump back into the ring following a bitter victory against Stephen Danyo\, whom he stopped prematurely\, allowing Oganesyan to claim the super-middleweight NABF belt for the first time. Yves Ulysse Jr. bursts back on the Montreal scene; his last fight was held in Shawinigan where he stopped David Théroux in the 5th round while defending his super lightweight NABF belt. He is looking forward to proving his mettle and is thrilled to have the opportunity to fight before his fans. \nFeaturing several of its headliners in one explosive event\, EOTTM is proud to offer an unforgettable evening of premium boxing to celebrate Québec’s Fête Nationale. The full fight card will soon be revealed.

SUMMARY:Benavidez VS. Lemieux
DESCRIPTION:A new world title opportunity for David Lemieux\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present: David Benavidez vs. David Lemieux. \nThe long awaited fight between David Lemieux (43-4-0\, 36 K.O.) and two-time world champion David Benavidez (25-0-0\, 22 K.O.) for the interim WBC 168 lb. world title has been made official and will be presented on Punching Grace. The event will take place on May 21 at the Gila River Arena in Glendale\, Arizona and will be presented as the finale of a Premier Boxing Champions night. \nDavid Benavidez said in a recent interview that he wanted a challenge and this is what the Montrealer will be able to offer him on May 21st given his extensive experience and the danger he represents given his devastating punching power. Indeed\, the American athlete has only crossed swords twice with boxers having more than 40 fights as it is the case for Lemieux. Despite his young age\, the one nicknamed El Bandera Roja Red Flag\, has met tough opponents such as Rogelio Medina\, whom he stopped in the 8th round\, or Ronald Ellis\, to whom he knocked out in the 11th round. His record speaks for itself and makes him a feared boxer. \n“Benavidez is a rising star in the boxing world so it’s definitely a big challenge for us. He’s very talented and he’s a great boxer. On our side\, it was no longer a question of doing small fights. So this is exactly the kind of opportunity we’ve been looking for\, and now we have it. We don’t want to miss the train\,” says David Lemieux’s coach and EOTTM Director of Development\, Marc Ramsay. \nCurrently ranked #2 in the WBC\, Lemieux already has the legitimacy to face the other big names in the division such as Daniel Jacobs (37-4-0\, 30 K.O.) or John Ryder (31-5-0\, 17 K.O.) and stage intriguing fights for boxing fans. But to face David Benavidez\, present #1 WBC\, and get his hands on the interim title is to guarantee himself one of the biggest fights in his career\, that is\, a duel against the current champion\, Saul Canelo Alvarez (57-1-2\, 39 K.O.). As EOTTM President Camille Estephan points out\, this is also a great opportunity for the Montreal boxer to make boxing history in Quebec by being one of the rare athletes to be crowned world champion in 2 different categories; “He will have the chance to become world champion a second time\, and that is very rare. He has been patient\, has known a path that was sometimes easy\, sometimes difficult. Hopefully now it will be the consecration for all his efforts.” \n“This belt\, I’ve wanted it for a long time. This fight is the chance I’ve been waiting for to become world champion again. I have been working day and night on my preparation to be 100% ready for this fight. I’m really excited about this fight and I intend to surprise people\,” added David Lemieux. \n“I’m excited to fight for another belt and I’m training very hard because this is another great opportunity for my career and my future\,” said David Benavidez. “David Lemieux still has a lot of power\, so I have to make sure I train 100% on all my skills. I’m confident I can stop Lemieux and I intend to give my fans another great fight on May 21.” \nDavid Lemieux will have to put all of the experience he has gained since the beginning of his career\, along with his punching power and a game plan that will baffle Benavidez in order to realize his ambition of winning this new world title.

SUMMARY:Mbilli VS. Mohammedi
DESCRIPTION:The moment of truth\nEye of the Tiger and Punching Grace present : The moment of truth for Christian Mbilli and Nadjib Mohammedi. \nThe French flag will be flying on March 26 at the Casino de Montréal when Christian “Solide” Mbilli (20-0-0\, 18 Kos) will defend his WBC Continental of the Americas belt against his fellow countryman\, Nadjib Mohammedi (44-8-0\, 27 Kos). This duel will be part of the 3rd event of the EOTTM 10th Anniversary series\, which will also feature Artem “Razor” Oganesyan (12-0-0\, 10 Kos) facing off against veteran Stephen Danyo ( 20-4-3\, 7 Kos) of Holland. \nOn December 11\, Christian Mbilli made a name for himself by defeating American Ronald Ellis in the most important victory of his career. Following this stellar performance in which he dominated in every round\, “Solide” ascended to the 8th world ranking of the WBC. Mbilli is aware that Mohammedi is a seasoned boxer who has confronted the greatest names of his division and who is on a winning streak following three victories by KO in his last three fights. Mohammedi\, who has put in over 300 rounds in his professional career\, is a clear and present danger to Mbilli\, and this fight is an excellent opportunity for “Solide” to demonstrate his prowess.  \nAlthough Nadjib Mohammedi is a boxing icon in his native France\, he wants to prove that he is still part of the elite on the world stage by defeating young hopeful Mbilli. The EOTTM team is very much aware of the importance of this potential victory that would showcase Mbilli’s skill and ambition\, and prove that he has a place on the world stage. “While Mohammedi had already attained the highest summit of boxing in France\, Mbilli was sharpening his skills in the ranks of amateur boxing. This clash will be a classic example of youth vs. experience. Mbilli will have to be careful\, as Mohammedi is an excellent and powerful counter-puncher\,” explained Marc Ramsay\, development director and Christian Mbilli’s trainer. \nRanked 18th in the world according to BoxRec\, Nadjib Mohammedi has established a solid reputation on the international scene over the years\, confronting the biggest names of his division. In 2012\, he became WBC light heavyweight world champion by defeating Doudou Ngumbu. He then went on to defeat world hopeful Lee Campbell\, establishing himself as one of the elite in his category and gaining access to Sergey Kovalev as well as ex-world-champion Oleksandr Gyozdyk. He also put up a solid opposition to eventual world champion Vladimir Shishkin\, as well as to Evgeny Shvedenko. \nIn the semi-final\, Artem Oganesyan will enter the ring for the first time since his move to Montreal\, accompanied by his trainer\, Marc Ramsay. More than eager to get back into action before his Québecois fans\, “Razor” aims to quickly dispatch his opponent\, Stephen Danyo\, by treating him to his first K.O. All the fights on this boxing card will be simulcast on Punching Grace on March 26. For more information\, please visit www.eottm.com or www.punchinggrace.com.

SUMMARY:Bazinyan VS. Paniagua
DESCRIPTION:The 10th anniversary series continue\nEye of the Tiger continues its 10th anniversary series at the Casino de Montréal with the long-awaited return of Erik Bazinyan (26-0-0\, 20 KOs)\, contender for the world title. “BZO” will confront Reinaldo Paniagua (17-1-0\, 16 KOs) in the main event in a championship fight with the NABF super middleweight titles at stake. Steven “Bang Bang Butler” (28-3-1\, 24 KOs) will re-launch his career back home in Quebec against Hector Manuel Zepeda (20-3-0\, 6 KOs). Also featured on this card will be top prospect Steve Claggett\, Christopher Guerrero\, Hamza Khabbaz\, Martine Vallières-Bisson and Jean-Gardy François. \nBazinyan\, Marc Ramsay’s protegé\, is ranked 7th in the world by the WBA\, 8th by the WBO\, and 16th by the WBC. Paniagua was hand-picked by Marc Ramsay’s team to challenge Bazinyan in a fight that will give him the tools for the challenges to come in 2022. A decisive win against Paniagua would allow him to move up in the world classifications. An aggressive hard-hitter\, Paniagua will force Bazinyan to focus throughout the fight and never let his guard down. \n“Paniagua has an impressive collection of KOs and he’ll be a great challenge for Erik\, but we’ll really be watching how Erik reacts to a heavy-hitter who also is trying to move up in the world classifications. This duel will prove to be a great start to a year filled with challenges for Bazinyan”\, explains Antonin Décarie\, EOTTM general manager. \nFollowing his heartbreaking loss by KO in January to Jose de Jesus Macias\, Steven Butler hopes to give a flawless performance to kickstart his career and start ascending the world classifications. “Bang Bang” will face Hector Manuel Zepeda\, a boxer who has confronted worthy contenders such as ex-world champion Carlos Molina\, and Sebastian Fundora. Zepeda will come to the Casino de Montréal with the firm intention of causing a third consecutive defeat to the Quebecer. “Bang Bang” knows that he is working with a very slim margin of error and he has every intention of emerging victorious from this fight. “I want to get back to the top and in order to do that\, I know that I have to knock out fighters like Zepeda. My team and I worked really hard in training camp so that I can win on March 3”\, explained Steven Butler. \nThe start the show\, Steve Claggett (30-7-2\, 20 KOs) will try to be the first to knock out the dangerous Sebastian Ezequiel Aguirre (18-3-0\, 11 KOs) in their scheduled 10 round bout. Also\, Christopher Guerrero (2-0-0) will take on Joaquin Aguilar Talavera (6-3-0\, 3 KOs) in a 4-round bout in the super-middleweight division. In addition\, Martine Vallières-Bisson (4-0-0\, 1 KO) will try to remain undefeated against Yolanda Vega (5-0-0) in their 6-round super-featherweight fight\, and Jean-Gardy François (1-0-0\, 1 KO) will face the more seasoned Francisco Javier Rodriguez Juarez (7-1-0\, 5 KOs) in a 4-round super-featherweight bout …

SUMMARY:Makhmudov VS. Wach
DESCRIPTION:Two giants collide for the 10th anniversary of EOTTM\nOn February 19th \, Eye of the Tiger\, in collaboration with La Queen\, Mise-o-jeu and Videotron\, presents the first event in a series of fights highlighting the 10th anniversary of EOTTM at Cabaret du Casino de Montreal. Arslanbek Makhmudov (13-0-0\, 13 K.-O.) will defend his NABF Heavyweight title against Polish Mariusz Wach (36-7-0\, 19 K.-O.) in the main event of the boxing card broadcast live on Punching Grace. \n“We are kicking off 2021 with a bang for our 10th anniversary\, with three boxing cards in three months. Several of our boxers are knocking at the door of major fights and we expect to use this series to shake up world rankings with worthy adversaries for our athletes who will no doubt provide solid entertainment for our fans in the intimacy of the Casino de Montreal\,” states Development Director and head trainer at EOTTM\, Marc Ramsay. \nIn fact\, Arslanbek Makhmudov will face Mariusz “The Giant” Wach in a ten-round bout for the NABF and NABA Heavyweight titles. “This upcoming fight will be a real test: Wach has confronted very good boxers and has lost by decision. If I manage to beat him\, I will gain access to the big names of my division\,” says Makhmudov. The 270 lb Pole has confronted quality boxers such as Vladimir Klitschko\, Alexander Povetkin\, Jarrell Miller\, Dillian Whyte and Hughie Fury. \n“I am excited to fight Makhmudov. I love a challenge and this fight against the Russian sure is one. I will be 100% ready and I’ll be in the best shape of my career. I know that Makhmudov is a worthy opponent and the King of KO\, but so far in his career he hasn’t encountered a boxer with as much experience as I have. The Russian never fought beyond three rounds in a fight; he won’t be able to go the distance in a longer fight”\, explained Wach. \nSimon Kean (20-1\, 19 KOs) will try to prolong his winning streak when he confronts Shawndell Terell Winters (13-6-0\, 12 KOs). Among his noteworthy fights\, the American heavyweight has confronted several powerhouses of his division: Joseph Parker\, Alen Babic\, Cassius Chaney and Nikodem Jezewski\, to name a few\, as well as great Canadian hopeful Oleksandr Teslenko\, whom he vanquished in a 5 th round KO. \n“Winters is a powerful\, seasoned boxer with a good knockout ratio who has confronted worthy opponents. Simon will test his mettle in this fight; he will have to focus from beginning to end as Winters is the type of boxer who will not hesitate to punish his adversary for every mistake\, no matter how small\,” explains Vincent Auclair\, Kean’s trainer. \nAmongst the future hopefuls we will see in action at the February 19 event are Thomas Chabot (5-0\, 5 K.-O.)\, Luis Santana (4-0-0\, 2 KOs)\, Alexandre Gaumont (2-0\, 1 K.-O.)\, Avery Martin-Duval (5-0-1\, 3 KOs) and Leila Beaudoin (3-0\, 1 K.-O.).
