During the press conference on last Tuesday, David Lemieux and Curtis Stevens admitted that they will not wear white gloves. They also made their point of view and strategy when they fight on March 11, at Turning Stone Resort and Casino in New York, USA.
However, the tensions between two fighters, David Lemieux (36-3, 32 KO), and Curtis Stevens (29-5, 21 KO) escalated during the press conference.
“I promise one thing, it’s certain that my supporters will not be disappointed,” Lemieux said. “I didn’t refuse any fight. I wanted the negotiations to be fair. So here I am. The fight is on.
“It’s a guy who has a big mouth and I’ll close it to him. We’ll take care of him on March 11. This fight is not going to go your way. It’s going to be a much harder fight than you are expecting. Do not worry, you will not speak so much at that time” Lemieux added.
Stevens on the other side, who is known to talk a good game, was more hushed. “You know, I’m the same person, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If I have something to say to you, I will tell you directly. David seems to like better to say it to the camera. He usually says dirty stuff in addition to the media.” Stevens said.
“I can not wait. They’ll need salt of ammonia to wake you up! Just come to me in the middle of the ring.” Stevens added.

If the two fighters are so reassembled, it is possible that they have so much to lose. This unification fight is probably the antechamber of a world title for both boxers, both of whom are among the top 10 of the major international associations. Lemieux is third aspirant to the WBC, fourth in the World Boxing Organization (WBO ), And sixth at the International Boxing Federation (IBF), while Stevens ranked second at the WBC, fifth at the IBF, eighth at the World Boxing Association (WBA), and 10th at the WBO.
In this clash, the winner will likely be close to another shot. This clash also predicted will be an interesting matchup that will certainly have a result on both sides’ prompt careers.
