Asanau, Spencer, and Guerrero: Three Championship Fights on April 10 in Montreal!

MONTRÉAL, March 7, 2025 — April 10 at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal will be a night of firsts. For the first time as the main event, Dzmitry Asanau will defend his Continental Americas title, Mary Spencer will make her first world title defense, and Christopher Guerrero will compete in the first championship fight of his career. Kicking off the night, Canadian Olympic medalist Wyatt Sanford and junior amateur world champion Erik Israyelyan will make their highly anticipated professional debuts.

Leading the charge, WBC Continental Americas lightweight champion Dzmitry Asanau will defend his title for the first time in his debut as a main event, taking on former European champion Francesco Patera. The event, starting at 6:30 p.m., will be broadcast live on Punching Grace and ESPN+.

“It’s exciting to defend my belt for the first time because it represents my continued rise in the division. It’s also a true privilege to do so as the main event of a gala. I want to thank my team for believing in me, and I plan to reward EOTTM’s fans in attendance on April 10 with a great performance,” said the two-time Olympian and 14th-ranked contender in the world, Dzmitry Asanau.

Back in November, the Belarusian-born and UAE-adopted fighter Dzmitry Asanau (9-0, 4 KOs) claimed the WBC Continental Americas title in style, stopping Argentine puncher Matias Rueda in the fifth round—a performance voted “Fight of the Night” by fans. However, on April 10, the man nicknamed “The Wasp” will face a seasoned road warrior known for pulling off upsets abroad.

Francesco Patera (30-5, 11 KOs) won the Belgian national title in 2015 and has since found success on the international stage. In 2017, he shocked Edis Tatli in Finland to become European champion. The following year, he handed England’s Lewis Ritson his first career loss in the UK to reclaim the European title. After three successful defenses and winning the WBO Intercontinental and WBO Global titles, he faced current super lightweight world champion Keyshawn Davis. To this day, Patera remains one of the few fighters to have gone the distance with the American sensation. A victory over Patera could be a defining moment for Asanau, as Davis found himself in a world championship fight less than 20 months after facing the Belgian fighter.

In the co-main event, WBA welterweight world champion Mary Spencer (9-2, 6 KOs) will defend her title against experienced Venezuelan Ogleidis Suarez (31-5-1, 15 KOs), who will be aiming for her third world title in a third weight class. This fight was originally scheduled as the co-main event on March 14 before an injury led to the cancellation of the event.

“The date has changed, but the goal remains the same. The bad news for my opponent is that I’ll be even better prepared on April 10,” said Canadian Olympian Mary Spencer, who is now training in Windsor under former world champion Kara Ro.

On the undercard, world contender Christopher Guerrero (13-0, 8 KOs) will fight in his first-ever championship bout this spring against hard-hitting Mexican Oliver Quintana (22-3, 16 K.-O.). Already ranked 15th by the IBF at welterweight, the charismatic Montreal fighter will have the chance to break into a second top-15 ranking as he competes for the WBC Continental Americas title.

“Honestly, I screamed when I found out. I pushed my coach Giuseppe Moffa, jumped into Marc Ramsay’s arms, and nearly broke everything in the office! Fighting for a title is a dream come true, but the ultimate goal is a world championship, so get used to seeing me with belts around my waist in the coming years. I’m already in the top 15, but the real climb starts on April 10,” said Christopher “Machine Gun” Guerrero.

Originally scheduled for March 14, Quebec-based super lightweight prospect Jhon Orobio (12-0, 11 KOs) will face the toughest test of his young career. Selected as one of The Ring Magazine’s “Rookies of the Year,” “El Tigre” will take on veteran Argentine Sebastian Aguirre (19-6, 12 KOs) in an eight-round fight. Aguirre is well known to local boxing fans, having fought 27 rounds in Quebec against Luis Santana, Steve Claggett, and Mazlum Akdeniz.

Nicknamed “King Cogne,” Alexandre Gaumont (12-0, 8 KOs) will also face a tough test on April 10. The pride of Buckingham will go head-to-head with France’s Mathis Lourenco (13-5-3, 6 KOs) in an eight-round bout. Lourenco, a former French champion, has proven his competitiveness in every outing, including a draw against Marseille’s Bruno Surace, an undefeated fighter who shocked the boxing world by knocking out Jaime Munguia last December.

In another scheduled eight-round fight, EOTTM’s 2025 Prospect of the Year, Moreno Fendero (9-0, 7 KOs), will make his second appearance of the year.

Another highly anticipated debut for Canadian boxing fans: Wyatt Sanford, bronze medalist at the last Olympic Games and the first Canadian to reach the podium in nearly 30 years, will also make his professional debut. The pride of Kennetcook, Nova Scotia, joined EOTTM last January, but on April 10, he will officially step into the professional ranks.

“I’m super excited to continue doing what I love most, now as a professional. Fans can expect to same calm but aggressive presence in the ring that brought me success in Olympic boxing,” said Wyatt Sanford, EOTTM’s newest recruit.

Finally, Quebec fans will also get their first look at Erik Israyelyan, who will make his professional debut on April 10. Signed in 2023, the 21-year-old Armenian recently moved to Montréal. With his new team, led by Samuel Décarie-Drolet, the junior amateur world champion is ready to begin his quest for a professional title.

“He’s a pressure fighter with power and explosiveness! Some fans may even find that his style resembles that of former world champion Leonard Dorin,” said Samuel Décarie-Drolet, whose protégé will compete in the super lightweight division.
