WBC Flyweight World Championship Yesenia Gomez vs. Kim
Clavel Headlines "Irresistables" July 29
World Boxing Council (WBC) No. 1 contender Kim Clavel (15-0,
3 KOs) will finally face WBC Flyweight World Champion
Yesenia Gomez (19-5-3, 6 KOs), who will defend her world
title belt for the fifth time, on Friday, July 29, at the
Cabaret of Montreal Casino, headlining “IRRESISTIBLES,”
co-promoted by Groupe Yvon Michelle (GYM)/ Probellum,
presented by Mise-O-Jeu.
Gomez vs. Clavel has been postponed three times, which has
naturally increased tensions between the two fighters, based
on their social media posts. The fight was always considered
potentially spectacular and intense, but now their emotions
are peaking with both accusing the other for having delayed
the confrontation. Make sure to also check out the

Brilliantly talented Probellum representative, Artur "The
Chechen Wolf" Biyarslanov (10-0, 8 KOs), will be showcased
in the co-featured event on this prestigious evening. A 2015
Pan American Games gold medalist in Toronto, as well as a
Canadian representative at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio,
Biyarslanov plans to add a third consecutive knockout to his
record against Burkina Faso-native Issouf Kinda (18-5, 7KO),
fighting out of the Bronx (NY).
Montreal favorite Caroline Veyre will make her long
anticipated professional debut after her remarkable amateur
career. A pillar of the Canadian boxing team since 2013,
Caroline captured gold at the 2015 Pan American Games, and
she represented Canada at the 2020 Tokyo 2020. Veyre has
everything to become a big star of international pro boxing.
“IRRESISTIBLES” will also be an opportunity to appreciate
several young and talented boxers who represent the future
of Canadian boxing. Kickboxing superstar Jonathan Di Bella
(1-0, 0 KOs) will be in his second pro boxing match against
Mexican Jesus Velazquez (3-2, 2 KOs). Gifted Eric Basran, of
Vancouver (2-0, 1 KO), will meet Mexican challenger Juan
Carlos Garcia (4-2, 0 KOs), and young Montrealer Derek
Pomerleau (2-0, 2 KOs) will be fighting for his third
straight KO versus his Mexican opponent, Marcos Luna (1-1, 0
KOs).
Clavel competed in her last international competition in
2017 as a member of Canada's National Team in Honduras. In
her first world championship fight on July 29th, she will be
surrounded by three boxers who were her teammates at that
same time. Biyarslanov, Basran and Veyre also wore Canadian
colors at this tournament, additional evidence of the
exceptional talent in the GYM.
