RDS Direct: Zewski, Bouchard and Houle in action

RDS2 and Sportish present the GYM gala featuring Zewski, Bouchard and Houle starting at 7 p.m. tonight.

The Quebecer Mikaël Zewski will face the Mexican Carlos Ocampo Manriquez this evening in the main fight of a gala of the Yvon Michel Group (GYM) presented at the Colisée Vidéotron in Trois-Rivières.

Zewski (35-2, 23 KOs) was originally scheduled to step into the ring against Ukrainian Serhii Bohachuk, but the latter withdrew as he was retained in his home country to defend him following of the Russian invasion.

Manriquez (32-1, 20 KOs) has agreed to replace him for this ten-round fight in which the WBC Continental Americas title will be at stake.

The Mexican’s only loss was in 2018, in a fight for the IBF middleweight title against current champion Errol Spence Jr.

The former Canadian amateur champion, Sébastien Bouchard (19-2, 8 K.-O.), will also be in the evening when he will face the Mexican Ricardo Lara (22-9, 10 K.-O. ) in a 10-round clash.

For her part, Marie-Pier Houle (5-0-1, 2 K.-O.), originally from Trois-Rivières, will return to the ring just one month after her victory by decision against Yamila Esther Reynoso. This time around, she’ll face former kickboxing world champion Valentina Keri (5-5, 0 KOs) of Serbia in a six-round middleweight clash.

This will be the very first professional boxing event to be presented at the Colisée Vidéotron in Trois-Rivières.

CHISORA: “What kind of courage are we talking about? This boxer did not go to fight for his country.”

British heavyweight boxer Derek Chisora He spoke harshly about Jake Paul’s courage following his fight with Anthony Joshua. In a debate with heavyweight Vidall Riley, Chisora challenged Paul’s argument that he showed courage by entering the ring.

“What Paul did was not brave. He did not go to fight for his country. When he went to defend his state at the front, that is courage.”

What kind of courage is Paul talking about? He ran away in the first round and when he didn’t have enough strength to run, Joshua broke his jaw,” Chisora said.

A big boxing show took place in Miami, USA, on the night of December 19-20, 2025. In the main fight, American entertainer Jake Paul and former world champion Anthony Joshua entered the ring. The fight ended in the sixth round – AJ brutally knocked out his opponent.

Cars, factory, paper. Usik explained his career outside of boxing in detail.

Ukrainian boxer Alexander Usik said that he invested the money he earned from sports into business life.

“I have a small business right now. I have a company called Ready2Fight that doesn’t just work with boxing. What do we do? As promoters, we can guide the athlete – legal decisions, managerial decisions. Find trainers, doctors. So create a team. We also do things for sports and equipment.”

“We do some construction. I invest a little in hot construction. There is a glass processing plant. And of course, some valuable papers, special cars. I am a little more interested in the business world than, say, five years ago.”

“Because I understand that I earn money and they also have to work, they just buy themselves some diamonds, gold or something and get high. I’m not that kind of person, I don’t really like to show off,” Usik said.
