Librado Andrade vs Eric Lucas - 28 May, Quebec City

Andrade already state he won't fight at 175lbs when I-box offer him a Fight agains't Diaconu for now even if he agreed for 170 limit for the fight with Lucas . But it could be all buisness but i doubt!

Maybe your right but Lucas always said that he came back for the pleasure of it and not for the money! This said he really think he can beat Andrade and this could be the faster way to have a last chance at a Belt. Lucas have been in Bute corner for is two fight agains't Andrade so he know how Librado work in a fight!

Lucas his one of the major reasons i'm loving boxing so much , The guy really show how to become a Champion without having all the skills. Great humble guy with hearth and passion. He his the principal reasons why boxing is so popular in Montréal . All this make me think that Lucas know what his doing and his aware at what kind of challenge Andrade bring in the ring!

In Lucas prime i could have seen a close fight because i love Lucas but for now it's i can't even understand why ? It will be a long night for Eric and i just hope he can stay 12 rounds on his feets. Lucas still have an hell of a chin and a good defence but he don't have the power to stop the Andrade wrecking machine!

Logic Andrade ko 9
Hearth Lucas UD (it won't happens but i just can't)

 

Lucas is a gentleman.... but Andrade??? WTF??

At least have some other fights first.... Andrade is going to kill Lucas.

 

Maybe i'm wrong but Lucas looks like a man that is focused and in great shape. He has decent power, but not the kind to KO Andrade. He may go the distance if he uses his hooks and uppercuts up close and stay away from the long shots of Andrade. I guess Lucas may surprise everybody by winning more rounds than Librado and steal a SD or UD, coming May 28th.

And if he does, he still have a second chance at a belt down the road, even if the road is not very long. Time clock is ticking, so, big shoutout to Lucas for taking on a tough Andrade and for being serious about his comeback.

 

I think it gives Andrade rights for copromoting to Interbox. I think they still want him to face Diaconu in the long run...

 

170.

 

I'm pretty sure they gonna add Bika-Brinkley to it, since Interbox won the rights for the fight.

A card filled with Quebec boxers
Quebec boxer Pier-Olivier « Apou » Côté (10-0-0, 6 KO), who will box on the Montreal Bell Centre card on April 17th, is also scheduled to fight in front of his Quebec City fans on May 28th. His stablemate Éric Martel (3-0-0, 2 KO), from Quebec City, will also fight on the card.

InterBox fighter Benoit Gaudet (21-2-0, 8 KO) is excited and motivated to be included in this card, and will be looking to continue his climb back up the World rankings ladder. Benoit will be participating in his second fight since his defeat last May 2nd vs Humberto Soto in a WBC World title bout. On December 11th he beat Jorge Banos by TKO at the Montreal Bell Centre. All undercard opponents will be unveiled in the coming weeks.

In addition to line-up, and provided he can beat Moses Avizo (professional debut) on March 25th in California, Trois Rivières sensation Mikaël Zewski (1-0-0, 1 KO) will more than likely be added to the Pepsi Colisee card. Zewski would be boxing in Quebec for the first time in his young career.

Lucas hard at work
Eric Lucas is following his daily training program geared towards his tough opponent Librado Andrade. On Monday he will join his trainer Stephan Larouche in Florida for one week, before coming back to continue his physical training sessions. The 38 year old former champion will concentrate on his ring work with Stephan Larouche after April 17th.

“Last November our population proved that it only wants to see high caliber boxing Galas, such as those organized by InterBox, held in this City” states Quebec City Mayor Mr. Regis Lebeaume. “I am certain this second major Gala will confirm the passion of our people for the sport of boxing. In addition, the Gala will feature some local talent that will be very excited to demonstrate their capabilities in the ring to a large audience”.

 

I'm surprised they're not putting Bika-Brinkley on the undercard. Pepsi Colisee is a really big venue to try to fill up for this fight.

 

It will be on the under-card! they maybe wait to see the Tickets sell before make the annoncement!

 

I supposed they might be more details to take care of before announcing this fight on the card.

 

There was a little press tour yesterday.
