This Saturday, December 21, at the Four-à-Chaux gymnasium, professional boxers Nathan Yu Chak (Esprit boxe 34), Lenny Patrach (BC Marcel-Cerdan), Francis Don Navarro (BCMC) and Mayson Creygole (Carcassonne) will try to shine in the ring. Six amateur fights are also scheduled.

The young local boxers will turn up the heat this Saturday, December 21, at Four-à-Chaux. They will cross swords at the initiative of BC Marcel-Cerdan. Nathan Yu Chak (Esprit Boxe 34, 2 wins, 1 loss) will compete in the final of the Jean-Claude Boutier challenge.

For his fourth professional fight, Patrice Guidoni's student, who has 2 wins and 1 loss, will face Nicolas Virassamy from Toulouse. The winner of this duel will be promoted to the Elite 1 category and will become a challenger for the French flyweight championship.

Second pro fight for Lenny Patrach

In the heavyweights, it is the powerful Lenny Patrach (BC Marcel-Cerdan) who will have all the attention of the public. He will cross swords with Marseille's Anthony Sylvestry, a boxer who has won several titles in foot-fist boxing.

The two boxers won their first duel and will be fighting their second pro fight: “It should be a very balanced fight, assures Rudy Ruiz, Lenny Patrach's trainer. But it will also be a big challenge for Lenny. His opponent is tall (he is 1.90 m tall) and he won his first pro fight by KO. There is a certain amount of risk-taking but we wanted Lenny to have a real opposition.”

Jaouad Belmehdi and Mike Estèves guests of honor

Undefeated in two fights, Francis Don Navarro (BCMC) will step into the professional ring for the third time. The bantamweight will face the British from New Castel, Nallum Goodison who has won one fight by KO. Carcassonne's Mayson Creygolles (5 fights, 4 wins, 1 draw) will face Colombian Jaison Cervantes (54 fights, 14 wins, 37 losses, 3 draws).

During this gala, guests of honor, Mike Estèves (Esprit Boxe 34), who is ending his career, and Jaouad Belmehdi (BC Marcel-Cerdan), will be introduced to the public and their supporters, to whom they will address.

The gymnasium doors will open at 6 p.m. The gala is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. General admission: €10.
