The former 135 pounds WBA and WBO champion from Florida Randall Bailey (35-5-0) will face Hermann Ngoudjo (15-1-0) friday at the Uniprix Stadium Parc Jarry in Montreal, Quebec. The winner of this match will fight the champion of the 140 pounds for the IBF title which will be decided by the outcome of the june 16th fight between the South-African Lovemore N`Dou (45-8-1) and Paulie Malignaggi (22-1-0) at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut.



One month ago, both fighters were at a Montreal presser for the promotion of this fight and Bailey tried to intimidate Ngoudjo by staring him with a mean look.
"If he really thinks he is going to scare me by staring at me, and telling the press ill go through hell friday because he is the strongest puncher at 140 pounds, well he`s wrong, i aint afraid of him. This guy is wasting his time trying to intimidate me. Ill be suprised if Bailey hits harder than Castillo, and Castillo never hurted me when i fought him in Vegas on january 20th."


Ngoudjo admitted he had the chance to watch two of Bailey`s fightf or his preperation.
"I have the certitude ill be the one imposing my style and my pace Friday night when the first bell will ring. Ive scrupulously watched his fights and found out he had a tendency to be hesitant and pull back when he gets hitted hard. Ill show adaptation Friday, and ill dominate him with my skills and my strenght. Ill be suprised if this lasts the 12 rounds."


Ngoudjo insisted to have this fight in Montreal.
"Just like my fellow boxer Joachim Alcine, i get a huge pleasure of boxing in front of my fans in montreal. I really appreciate the support they have shown to me, and since ive just been confirmed as a Canadian citizen, i told Yvon Michel from GYM group promotion to get this fight in Montreal. This is a huge favor they have done for me."
