MONTREAL (June 19, 2015) - Former World Boxing Organization (WBO) 160-pound division champion Hassan N'Dam (31-1, 18 KOs) has promised a world-class performance in tomorrow night's (Saturday, June 20) showdown with David Lemieux (33-2, 31 KOs) for the vacant International Boxing Federation (IBF) middleweight title at the famed Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada.
A 2004 Olympian who represented his native Cameroon, N'Dam is the IBF No. 1-ranked, mandatory contender, who now fights out of France. Lemieux is ranked No. 4 in the world by the IBF.
"I promise a world-class performance tomorrow night in Montreal against hometown favorite David Lemieux for the IBF middleweight world championship," N'Dam said earlier today in Montreal. "I will adapt to whatever style Lemieux brings. I can KO him in round one, or in any other round. He has never fought anyone with my skill set. Lemieux is coming into the deep end and I will prove he doesn't belong here. I will show his handlers that he doesn't belong at the top tier of world-class boxing."
N'Dam's victims, among the more notables, include Max Bursk, Curtis Stevens, Fulgencio Zuniga, Giovanni Lorenzo, Omar Weiss and Autandil Khurtsidze.
"Hassan has had the best training camp of his career and he's going to put on the performance of his life tomorrow night," N'Dam's manager Gary Hyde added. "When he is crowned IBF world middleweight champion, Hassan will be right in the mix of the most exciting weight division in boxing. We are not happy with the appointment of a Canadian judge and Canadian referee, but I have been assured by Quebec Commissioner Michel Hamelin that they will do a good, honest job. I accept that this will be the case. We have a world title to win and that is what we will do. Hassan will be crowned world champion for the second time, against all odds, because he's just too good."
