Ronald Hearns, 20-0-0 (16), is scheduled to lace up the gloves against Paul Clavette, 14-1-1 (2), on Friday, October 24 at the Bell Centre in Monreal.
Hearns earned a TKO1 victory over Alexander Pacheco Quiroz, 14-7-1 (4), last week to set up the October 24 clash. This bout will be the main support to the long awaited IBF Super Middleweight title fight featuring champion Lucian Bute, 22-0-0 (18), vs. #1 contender Librado Andrade, 27-1-0 (21).
Both bouts will be televised in the Untited States by the Showtime Network as part of the ShoBox: The New Generation series as well as throughout Canada on Canal Indigo and Bell TV. Hearns is an explosive blue chip boxer with knock-out power, as evidenced by his 16 KO’s in 20 fights. In Clavette, Hearns will be facing an opponent who has never fell to the canvas in 16 pro fights.
With a combined total of 55 KO’s and only two losses in the two main bouts, InterBox is poised to make a very positive first impression with Showtime network fans.
InterBox is currently closing out the rest of the card for its October 24th Bell Centre Gala which is set to start at 8 PM.
