לוסיאַן ביוט:I am really, really confident going into this fight. I respect Alvarez; he is the WBC No. 1 ranked contender in the light heavyweight division.

Lucian also is ready to do whatever it takes to win פרייַטיק. We have two fighters, two true competitors, who will give everything and leave everything in the ring פרייַטיק.
האָוואַרד שענקען, Bute’s trainer: ”Lucian had the best camp of his career. He had more energy in this camp than in the ones for James DeGale and Badou Jack. He had good sparring also and he will be ready פרייַטיק נאַכט.”
Marc Ramsay, Alvarez trainer: ”This is the third time in his career that Alvarez has been called out after a sparring session. First it was Andrew Gardinerand he was stunned by Eleider in the ninth round of the fight. He was never the same after that, got knocked out by an unknown fighter, and retired. Than it was Nicholson Poulard. He was KO’ed in the third round and he retired after that. Lucian asked Eleider for a fight after seeing a sparring between Alvarez and a fighter from the Grant Brothers Gym. He intends to deliver the goods פרייַטיק. They asked for Alvarez, they will have Alvarez.

מאָנטרעאַל (פעברואַר 14, 2017) – Undefeated World Boxing Council (וובק) Silver light heavyweight champion עלעידער “שטורעם” אַלוואַרעז is on a mission to showcase his talent throughout the boxing world, פעברואַר 24 against former world super middleweight champion לוסיאַן ביוט, to completely justify his No. 1 contender position.
The 32-year-old Alvarez (21-0, 10 קאָס) will defend his WBC Silver title belt against Bute (32-3-1, 25 קאָס) in the 12-rounder headliningBUTE VS. ALVAREZ”, promoted by Groupe Yvon Michel (ספּאָרטזאַל) and Gestev, a presentation of Videotron and Mise-O-Jeu, at Videotron Centre in Quebec City, קאַנאַדע.

Fighting out of Montreal, Alvarez is a Colombia native who is ranked No. 1 דורך די וובק, ווי ווויל ווי קיין. 4 דורך די רינג magazine. In addition to Alvarez defending his WBC Silver title against Bute, their main event showdown will also be the final WBC eliminator to determine the mandatory challenger for the winner’s GYM stablemate, reigning WBC and lineal light heavyweight champion אַדאָניס “סופּערמאַן” סטיוואַנסאַן (28-1-0, 23 קאָס).
Alvarez was already Stevenson’s mandatory challenger, אָבער, he agreed to put everything on the line in a risky confrontation with former IBF super middleweight champion Bute, as opposed to waiting until later this year for his title shot with Stevenson. In addition to being well compensated, Alvarez had several other reasons to accept this immense challenge against Bute.
It is a very good opportunity for me, fighting a good opponent who is very popular, especially in Canada,” the odds favorite Alvarez said. “He’s is a southpaw, like Stevenson, plus it’s also a good opportunity for me to rise my popularity. And with all due respect to Bute, someone unable to beat Bute doesn’t deserve a shot at Stevenson.
Our fight will probably be a boxing chess match, but because of the local angle, at some point our fight will turn emotional. I will retire Lucian Bute for good February 24טה!”

CLASH OF TITANS! Lucian Bute vs. Eleider Alvarez Feb. 24 at Videotron Centre of Quebec City

פֿאַר באַלדיק מעלדונג

לוסיאַן ביוט

מאָנטרעאַל (דעצעמבער 12, 2016) Group Yvon Michel (ספּאָרטזאַל) and Gestev are very happy to confirm the Clash of Titans mega-event as former International Boxing Federation (יבף) super middleweight world champion לוסיאַן ביוט (32-3-1, 25 קאָס) will face World Boxing Council (וובק) Silver light heavyweight champion עלעידער “שטורעם” אַלוואַרעז (20-0, 10 קאָס), פרייַטיק, פעברואַר 24, in a 12-round light heavyweight bout at Vidéotron Centre of Québec City.
This event is a presentation of Vidéotron, אין פאַרבאַנד מיט Mise-O-Jeu.

עלעידער אַלוואַרעז
Alvarez will put his WBC mandatory challenger position to champion אַדאָניס“סופּערמאַן” סטיוואַנסאַן (28-1, 23 קאָס) in danger with an end of April date for this world title fight having already been reserved.
Bute has also set his goal to challenge Stevenson. The veteran southpaw plans to clearly demonstrate that he deserves another wotld title shot, taking on the No. 1 conternder in undefeated Alvarez. Whatever the final outcome, the winner will be the most popular and legitimate challenger for Stevenson, dramatically increasing interest and notoriety of a totally Québécois world championship showdown.
All the ingredients are gathered to heighten popular interest in this fight, which will prove to be one of the most significant in the history of Quebec.
It is a local confrontation between two athletes who chose Quebec as their adopted home, fully integrating in the loal culture and learning French, as well as where they’ve fought the vast majority of their bouts. The result of this major clash will also have enormous repercussions at the international level in the light heavyweight division.
In one corner is former world champion Bute, who has delivered many inspirational performances during his 13 world championship fights (10-2-1, 8 קאָס) to become a great star and admired celebrity in Quebec.
The other corner finds unbeaten Alvarez, a world-class fighter for the past three years who has delivered his most brilliant performances abroad, albeit mostly in the shadows of other great stars of Quebec. The former Colombian Olympian wants to establish his true value after having prepared for Stevenson by fighting opponents for more than the past year. He will earn his highest purse, which is similar to what he would have received to fight Stevenson first.
It is the fans of Quebec in their entirety who will first be delighted with this mega fight and I am convinced that there will be no losers,” ספּאָרטזאַל פּרעזידענט יוואָן מיטשעל האט. “Although it is difficult to predict the outcome of this confrontation, most likely this fight will be so interesting and close that, eventually the two could get, one after the other, a world championship fight against the powerful southpaw champion of Montreal, Adonis Stevenson.
It was important for us to have this fight at the Vidéotron Centre,” מוסיף Vice-President Shows & Creative Content of Québecor, Michel Granger. The last time (the Stevenson-Williams fight) was a success and it will be the same on פעברואַר 24.”

The last six months have been tough for me,” Bute explained. “After the Washington situation was settled, I was happy to finally sit down and discuss my next fight. I accepted as soon as I was offered the fight. We’re talking about an undefeated guy ranked number 1 דורך די וובק. It’s quite a challenge. I tip my hat to Alvarez for putting his position in peril.
I was expecting the winner of the unification title fight between James Dégale און באַדאָו דזשאַק, but I had no guarantees and I could not afford to wait. My goal is to fight again for a world championship, whether it’s at 168 אָדער 175 פונט, and I did not want to just take a meaningless preparatory fight.
After evaluating all the options, we came to the conclusion that we had to take this fight,” אַלוואַרעז’ קאָפּ טריינער מאַרק ראַמזי remarked. “אַוואַדע, there are risksbut it’s worth it. Eleider has long awaited an opportunity to box against someone recognized in Quebec, and people have not yet seen his full potential. He was all smiles when he received the offer.”.
When Marc called me into his office,” Alvarez commented, “I was wondering what was going on. Generally, when he calls me into his office, it’s not good news. He asked me to sit down and if I wanted to face Bute. I smiled and said, יאָ. He is the most popular boxer in Quebec, so my motivation will be different. I’m doing this for myself and my family. I want to be world champion and now it’s going through Lucian. I’ve been looking a long time for a big fight like this and for the first time I will be the headliner.
