Thursday: Dzmitry Asanau-Francesco Patera Lightweight Showdown Headlines Montreal Fight Night LIVE on ESPN+

PhilBoxing.com




Coverage from Casino de Montréal begins at 6:30 p.m. ET/3:30 p.m. PT

(April 7, 2025) — Undefeated lightweight contender Dzmitry Asanau will defend his WBC Continental Americas belt in a 10-round lightweight main event against former two-time European champion Francesco Patera this Thursday, April 10, at Casino de Montréal in Montreal, Canada.

The co-feature will showcase unbeaten puncher Christopher Guerrero versus Mexico’s Oliver “El Monaguillo” Quintana in a 10-round tilt for the vacant WBC Continental Americas welterweight belt.

Promoted by Eye of the Tiger, Asanau-Patera, Guerrero-Quintana, and undercard bouts will stream live and exclusively in the U.S. on ESPN+ at 6:30 p.m. ET/3:30 p.m. PT.

Asanau, a 2016 Olympian from Belarus, is a three-year pro who has taken the fast track to contention after defeating the likes of Andy Cruz and Hector Luis Garcia as an amateur. He signed with Eye of the Tiger last year and made his Canadian debut that August with an eight-round decision over Alexis Gabriel Camejo on the Christian Mbilli-Sergiy Derevyanchenko card. Less than three months later, he stopped former world title challenger Matias Rueda in five rounds. Patera (30-5, 11 KOs) last held the European title from 2018-2019 and is 2-1 since a 2023 decision defeat to Keyshawn Davis.

Guerrero (13-0, 8 KOs) has been on a knockout run of late, stopping eight of his last nine opponents. In February, he became the first man to knock out 33-fight veteran Dennis Dauti, stopping him in round four of a scheduled 10-rounder. Quintana (22-3, 16 KOs) has never fought outside of Mexico and is coming off a split decision victory over Chester Parada Torales.

In other streaming action:

• Mary Spencer (9-2, 6 KOs) makes the first defense of her WBA super welterweight world title against Venezuelan former featherweight world champion Ogleidis Suarez (31-5-1, 15 KOs).

• Colombian knockout phenom Jhon Orobio (12-0, 11 KOs) makes his 2025 debut in an eight-round junior welterweight fight against Argentina’s Sebastian Ezequiel Aguirre (19-6, 12 KOs). Orobio has three straight knockouts in two rounds or less, while Aguirre’s only KO defeat came in nine rounds to former world title challenger Steve Claggett.

• Middleweight prospect Alexandre Gaumont (12-0, 8 KOs) steps up against France’s battle-tested Mathis Lourenco (13-5-3, 6 KOs).

• Rising super middleweight Moreno Fendero (9-0, 7 KOs) goes for win number 10 in an eight-round test against Mykola Vovk (15-6, 9 KOs).

• Wyatt Sanford, who captured a bronze medal for Team Canada at the 2024 Paris Olympics, makes his long-awaited pro debut versus Shawn Archer (2-5, 2 KOs) in a four-rounder at junior welterweight.

• Armenia’s Erik Israyelyan, a Youth European and IBA Youth World gold medalist, turns pro against Richard Bernath (0-1) in a four-rounder at lightweight.
