The Passing of the Torch<\/h2>\n
\n

When Arthur Biyarslanov<\/strong> said he wouldn\u2019t rest until he reached the top, he meant it. Known as \u2018The Wolf,\u2019 Biyarslanov will defend his NABF super lightweight title for the second time in two months on October 17 against Argentine veteran Jonathan \u2018El Potro\u2019 Eniz<\/strong>. This fight will serve as the co-main event of the Gaumont vs. Zarate clash, headlining a nine-bout card starting at 6:00 PM<\/u> on Punching Grace and ESPN+.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve said it before and I\u2019ll say it again. I want a shot at the world title. One fight at a time, but I know I will get that shot in 2025. October 17th will just bring me one step closer to my ultimate goal. I can\u2019t wait!,\u201d said Biyarslanov (16-0, 14 KOs)<\/strong>, ranked 22nd in the WBC super lightweight division.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

His opponent, Jonathan Eniz (35-20-1, 16 KOs)<\/strong>, brings a wealth of experience, having logged over 340 professional rounds. Some of those rounds took place in Gatineau, where the Argentine faced Steve \u2018The Dragon\u2019 Claggett in 2022. Never one to shy away from a challenge, the South American champion has also squared off against former and future world champions, including Subriel Matias, and even pulled off a surprise victory over Cesar Cuenca. Eniz will be aiming for his fifth career win over an undefeated fighter when he meets Biyarslanov in the ring.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the main event, Buckingham\u2019s heavy-hitter Alexandre Gaumont (11-0, 7 KOs)<\/strong> will look to deliver a career-defining performance in front of his hometown crowd, as he faces off against Argentine brawler Cristian Zarate (10-4, 3 KOs)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Also featured in the lineup, Steve ‘The Dragon’ Claggett (38-8-2, 26 KOs)<\/strong>returns to action for the first time since his world title bout last June. Hungrier than ever, the Calgary native\u2014currently ranked 15th by the WBC at 140 lbs\u2014will take on tough competitor Eduardo Estela (16-3, 11 KOs)<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In addition, light heavyweight contender Mehmet Unal (10-0, 8 KOs)<\/strong> faces the relentless German Armenak Hovhannisyan (14-4-1, 6 KOs)<\/strong>. Montreal\u2019s Luis Santana (12-0, 6 KOs)<\/strong> seeks his fifth consecutive knockout but faces his toughest challenge yet in Argentina\u2019s Sebastian Aguire (19-5, 12 KOs)<\/strong>. EOTTM prospect Shamil Khataev (12-0-1, 3 KOs)<\/strong> looks to secure his 13th career win, and his first in Quebec, against veteran Cristian Rafael Coria (30-10-2, 14 KOs)<\/strong>. Gatineau\u2019s own warrior, Pascal Villeneuve (4-2-1, 2 KOs)<\/strong>, makes his comeback after more than eight years away from the ring, taking on Rafael Sosa Pintos (63-19, 25 KOs)<\/strong>. Finally, kicking off the event, Moreno Fendero (7-0, 5 KOs)<\/strong>, fresh off his KO of the night at the September gala, aims to repeat his explosive performance against the battle-tested Pavel Albrecht (19-26, 14 KOs)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
