By Dan Ambrose: #1 IBF middleweight contender Hassan N’Dam (31-1, 18 KOs) and #4 IBF David Lemieux (33-2, 31 KOs) will be fighting for the vacant IBF middleweight title at a still to be determined date. The two fighters’ management are currently trying to negotiate the fight.
If they can’t do it then the fight will go to a purse bid on April 7th in Springfield, New Jersey, according to Dan Rafael of ESPN. This is the IBF title that the International Boxing Federation recently stripped from Jermain Taylor last February due to him being unable to defend the title because of legal issues.
