Both boxers have impeccable careers and impressive winning streaks, making this fight an unmissable highlight of the boxing world.
Osleys Iglesias, the undefeated Cuban boxer currently based in Berlin, Germany, has had a stellar 2024 and now ranks in the top 10 of the middleweight division after a string of impressive wins. Tomorrow night in Montreal, Iglesias will face Petro Ivanov at Casino Montreal, with the fight broadcast on ESPN+ in the United States. At 26, Iglesias boasts a flawless 12-0 record, including 11 knockouts. He has prepared meticulously, weighing in at 167 lbs—1 lb under the limit—while Ivanov came in slightly heavier at 167.2 lbs.
Iglesias has displayed formidable power, with six consecutive knockout wins, including a first-round stoppage of Marcelo Coceres in March—a fighter who once troubled notable boxer Edgar Berlanga. Recently, Iglesias also dismantled tough opponents like Evgeny Shvedenko and Sena Agbeko in a combined four rounds. This fight is a significant opportunity for him to solidify his standing in the middleweight division and cap off 2024 on a high note.
Ivanov win over Canadian fans with his undefeated record
Petro Ivanov, a young star from Karlsruhe, Germany, also enters this bout undefeated with an 18-0-2 record (13 KOs). At 28, Ivanov is ready for his Canadian debut and, like Iglesias, comes with six consecutive knockout victories. This intense clash between two undefeated fighters—both with knockout power and a hunger to prove themselves—promises to be electrifying.
In the co-main event, Montreal’s own Steven Butler seeks redemption following a ninth-round loss to Patrice Volny. Butler (34-5-1, 28 KOs), weighing in at 165.3 lbs, will face Argentina’s Fernando Farias (12-2, 4 KOs), who weighed 165.5 lbs. This fight is a chance for Butler to rebuild his career in the super middleweight division, setting the stage for another explosive night at Casino Montreal.
