Canadian fighter and current NABF light flyweight champion, Kim Clavel (13-0, 2KO), will face Mexican Maria Vargas (15-3-1, 1 KO) for the prestigious WBC Silver title on August 28 in Montreal, Canada.
This event will also mark the return of world contender Mikael Zewski (34-2-0, 23KO), who led on points against Egidijus Kavaliauskas in Las Vegas in his last fight in September 2020 before making a mistake in the 8th round.

His opponent will be 23-year-old Dilan “El Tremendo” Loza (15-4-1, 9KO), a tough, young brawler fighting out of Mexicali.
Sébastien Bouchard (19-2, 8KO) has been bothered and hampered by injuries in recent years and this will be the first time since 2018 that he will compete in two fights in the same year.

Based on his performance, the Quebecer has shown that he has recovered from his injuries, and he intends to make up for lost time.
