 Montreal (February 17, 2012) – One of Ontario’s best amateur boxers, undefeated featherweight prospect Tyler Asselstine (8-0, 5 KOs), has a second home in Montreal, where he fights Saturday night for the sixth time during his young pro career, against unbeaten Italian boxer Nicola Cipolletta (8-0, 2 KOs).

 

Asselstine-Cipolletta is part of the “Fast & Furious” undercard, presented by Groupe Yvon Michel, in association with Mise-O-Jeu and Videotron, at the famed Bell Centre.
