The long-awaited battle between the super-middle weight champion of the
I.B.F. Lucian Bute and Librado Andrade will finally take place in Quebec,
November 28, and will be broadcast in the U.S. via the HBO network.
The Canadian Press confirmed that the Golden Boy Promotions group, which
will produce the event, agreed to hold the fight in Quebec City or Montreal.
As the television network HBO would be broadcasting the event, it was
imperative to confirm the date, so November 28 was chosen.
Remember that the National Hockey League has scheduled a match of the
Montreal Canadiens at home on November 28, so many rumors have suggested
that the boxing match could be held at the Olympic Stadium.
The precise location of the fight would soon be revealed. Remember that
Andrade and Bute had already clashed in October 2008 with the final round
ending in controversy. Despite his dominance in the first eleven rounds,
Bute was in danger during the last seconds of the match, but was saved by
the bell announcing the end of combat. Bute had won the fight by unanimous
decision, despite a convincing final of Andrade.
