Former world title challenger Sebastien "Double Trouble" Demers won his second bout in a row as he stopped fellow Quebecois middleweight Martin Berthiaume after five rounds of combat last night at The Casino in Montreal.

Demers, 27-2 (10), won his second bout on the bounce following a shocking split decision loss to Dionisio Miranda last year for the NABA title as Berthiaume, 14-4-2 (8), who has now lost three in a row, decided not to answer the bell for the sixth frame.

Middleweight David Lemeiux, 14-0 (14), continued to crush the opposition as the 20 year old local man belted out Mexico City's Luis Roberto Reyes, 6-7-1 (5), who has now lost his last six contests, in the first round. More...

Last night at The Casino in Montreal, former IBF Middleweight title challenger Sebastien Demers, 26-2 (9), showed a return to form as "Double Trouble" won every round against American visitor Donny McCrary, 24-9-2 (13), after ten frames of combat.

Sarnia, Ontario's favorite son was facing perhaps his toughest challenge to date as a pro in the form of seasoned Mexican Fernando Beltran, Jr, who like Molitor is a quick southpaw and had given the world's top super bantam at the time, Joan Guzman, a difficult challenge three years ago.

From the start, the bout fell into a comfortable pattern for Molitor, who prefers to counterpunch his opponents rather than take the lead, as Beltran surged forward trying to inflict damage. More...
