Canadian champion colt, Barrière dominates

It was a very active week on the Quebec scene since in addition to the EOTTM gala, New Era Promotions also presented a card on Saturday, at M Telus in Montreal.

In the final of the evening, the Canadian heavyweight champion, Alexis Barrière (11-0, 9 KO), made short work of the Mexican Guillermo Casas (10-4-1, 6 KO), winning. by TKO in just 2:32, after three falls to the floor.

Note that the latter replaced the American Craig Lewis at short notice, since the tough guy from Detroit was turned back at the Canadian border by the Canadian Border Services Agency.

In the main reserve fight, Jan Michael Poulin (8-1-3, 2 KOs) of Mascouche wowed the gallery, winning the CPBC Canadian middleweight title (160 lbs) with a spectacular TKO triumph in the seventh round over the slugger Kevin Menoche (7-1, 5 KOs) from Repentigny.

After two AMM wins against Laramie, Morgan obtained his “hat trick » with this third victory, this time in boxing.

Danny Malette (1-0, 1 KO), another pugilist from AMM, was making his debut in the noble art. After an intense start to the fight, the gladiator from Quebec found the fault in his opponent, the Mexican Juan Nava (1-2, 1 KO), to knock him out from the start.
