Lupia will be going head-to-head with Detroit’s Lanardo Tyner.

Tyner, who calls himself the ‘Pain Server’, has 22 wins via knockout. Tyner has shared the ring and gone the distance with the likes of Jessie Vargas, Lamont Peterson and none other than Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. Expect a war in this match that could go either way.

Lucas ‘Prince’ Bahdi (12-0-0 11KOs) will be co-main event against Cristian Bielma (19-4-2 7KOs) of Baja California, Mexico. Lucas Bahdi, who is a 3 x Canadian National Amateur Champion, has recently signed with Lee Baxter Promotions. The undefeated Bahdi has won 11 of his 12 fights by way of knockout.

As an amateur, Galle was a 3 x Canadian National Amateur Champion as well as being the 4 x Ringside World Boxing Amateur Champion. Galle will be battling it out against Luz Elena Martinez (6-4-0 3KOs) in an 8-round matchup. In her last fight, Martinez just came short in a close decision for the Americas Continental Title.

Highly touted amateur, Moe Zawadi (4-1-0 4KOs), will look to display his skillset in his bout against Marco Parente (1-4-3 0KOs) of Woodbrige, Ontario. Zawadi collected four Canadian national titles as an amateur. On November 19, Zawadi travelled to Washington, D.C. where he got his fourth win, another punch perfect performance.
