Alexandre Gaumont will look to keep his unbeaten record intact as the Canadian middleweight takes on Andres Viera in the main event, which will be broadcast in the United States on ESPN+.
The event, held at Casino Lac-Leamy in Gatineau, Quebec, is another Thursday night outing by Eye of the Tiger Management.
Gaumont (11-0, 7 KOs) weighed in at 159.6lbs, while Viera (12-8, 9 KOs) from Mercedes, Uruguay, tipped the scales at 158.8lbs. The bout is scheduled for eight rounds. Gaumont, 29, is fighting for the first time since a split-decision victory over Santiago Fernandez in May. Viera, 40, is coming off a fourth-round TKO over Roberto Javier Diaz in August, but had previously been stopped or disqualified in his last four fights.
In the co-feature, Toronto’s junior welterweight Arthur Biyarslanov (16-0, 14 KOs) weighed in at 139.6lbs for his 10-round bout against Jonathan Jose Eniz (35-20-1, 16 KOs) of Dolores, Argentina, who came in at 139.8lbs.
Biyarslanov, 29, has won three fights this year, all by knockout, extending his knockout streak to eight, which dates back to December 2021. In his most recent bout, he stopped undefeated Tamas Kiliti (10-1, 6 KOs) in the third round, dropping him multiple times.
Eniz, 29, a veteran journeyman, is on a two-fight win streak and steps into the ring for the third time this year. His last outing was a 10-round unanimous decision over Sergio Donaire in Argentina.
