Cloutier’s Canada Corner
Alvarez Will Face Berridge
By Daniel Cloutier
Montréal -The Promoter Of The Gym Group, Yvon Michel,
Confirmed That His Light Heavyweight Eleider Alvarez Will
Face Ro Bert Berridge July 29th At The Vidéotron Centre In
Québec City. Berridge (27-4-1), A Fighter From Albany, New
Zealand, Will Replace The Former Wbc Light Heavyweight
Champion Of The World, Chad Dawson (34-4-0), A Boxer From
New Haven, Connecticut, Who Injured His Left Shoulder In
Training Few Days Ago. A Montrealer Colombian, Alvarez
(19-0-0) Is Ranked Wbc First Contender In The 175 Pounds
Division. Berridge Is Not Ranked.
“Berridge Is A Fighter Intense, Aggressive, Who Has The
Reputation To Be A Good Puncher, Said Yvon Michel. I Guess
His Fight With Alvarez Will Be Spectacular.”
Alvarez Said: “I Am Very Disappointed To Miss The Chance To
Face Chad Dawson, But Berridge Is Also A Southpaw, Than, I
Won’t Need To Change My Preparation. Apparently, Berridge
Loves To Attack, Then, The Fight Should Be Interesting For
The Crowd.”
The Fight Alvarez-Berridge, Scheduled For 10 Rounds, Will Be
Presented Just Before The Wbc Light Heavyweight Championship
Of The World Opposing The Montrealer Adonis Stevenson
(17-1-0) And Thomas Williams Jr. (20-1-0). For Stevenson, It
Will Be A Seventh Defense Of His World Title. Williams Is
The Mandatory Challenger. Both Are Southpaws.
