Canadian update: Cotroni-Lafreniere rematch booked for September

On September 20th, two Quebec boxers will settle an old score at Montreal's Centre Pierre Charbonneau. Francis Lafrenière and Francesco Bruno Cotroni will fight each other since a well-remembered 2012 encounter in which Cotroni previaled. Since then, Lafrenière (19-7-2) has gone onto better pro success than Cotroni (12-11-1) who has lost three straight.

 

 

On September 20, public figure Hugo Girard will climb into the ring for the first time against ex-fighter and UFC official Patrick Côté in a boxing showdown to raise money for the event. Défi sportif AlterGo, the largest annual multi-sport event in Canada!   We also have a great local final against Francis Lafrenière and Francesco Bruno Cotroni, who will compete for a Canadian title. This face-to-face will result in a rematch between the two athletes, since the first duel between the two Quebecers was the fight of the year on the local scene in 2012.
