InterBox press conference recap about Dec. 6 PPV show in Montreal PhilBoxing.com Thu, 13 Nov 2014  MONTREAL (Nov. 12, 2014) - InterBox held a press conference today in Montreal to announce that fans at the Bell Centre on December 6 will be able to watch three major fights: light heavyweights Lucian Bute (31-2, 24 KOs) vs. Roberto Bolonti (35-3, 24 KOs) and Jean Pascal (29-2-1, 17 KOs) vs. Donovan George (26-4-2, 22 KOs), as well as the NABF middleweight title fight between David Lemieux (32-2, 20 KOs) vs. Gabriel Rosado (21-8, 13 KOs) on big screens live from Brooklyn, New York. "We have a former IBF champion in Lucian, a former WBC champion and Ring champion in Pascal and one of the most exciting middleweights in the World in David Lemieux - all on the same night," InterBox president Jean Bedard commented. "It's the type of card the fans deserve and get excited to see." Lucian in the Philippines: A different style of training Under the watchful eyes of multiple-time Trainer of the Year Freddie Roach, who is training multi-division world champion Manny Pacquiao, Lucian is refining his tools ahead of his Dec. 6 bout. Lucian may be halfway around the world in the Philippines but he quickly got comfortable with such prestigious company. "It is an honor to train with these two legends," Bute said from the Philippines. "There are so many good people here who stop by and watch us. It feels great. It's like I am training for the public every day." Bute will stay at Pacquiao's camp until Manny and Roach leave for Pacquaio's Nov. 22 fight vs. Chris Algieri in Macau, China. Bute will return to Montreal at the end of November. Pascal: Waiting for offers WBC Diamond and NABF light heavyweight champion Jean Pascal is in an excellent position. As he stated to the media, Jean is currently the mandatory contender for WBC champion Adonis Stevenson and Jean will meticulously study all fight possibilities during the next few months. Pascal's coach, Marc Ramsey, will be accompanying Lemieux to Brooklyn to work his corner Dec. 6. Pascal, who immediately agreed for Ramsey to work with Lemieux, will have Russ Anber and Roy Jones, Jr in his corner against George. Pascal also decided to set up training camp on Montreal instead of at Big Bear in California.
