    Good news, ESPN might broadcast the fight in the USA. :)

    ESPN contacted Bute's promoter after the fight was announced and they are negotiating.

    English version of the news posted earlier.

    Bute fever hits Montreal

    InterBox anticipated a strong demand for tickets to the IBF World Super Middleweight championship Gala featuring Lucian Bute, and the fans did not disappoint! After a record breaking day of sales over 7,000 tickets have been sold, leaving InterBox on track towards the biggest crowd for its most important Gala.

    “I am extremely proud and humbled by the show of support that Quebec boxing fans have demonstrated towards me." said Bute. "It is incredible to see that so many people are interested in helping me to achieve my dream. Berrio better be ready, because I have no intention of disappointing my fans at the Bell Centre on October 19th”.
