Patrice L'Heureux
Patrice L'Heureux is a Canadian Heavyweight boxer born on February 1, 1972 in Grand-Mère, Quebec, Canada. On November 13, 2004, L'Heureux challenged Steve McKay for the vacant Canadian Heavyweight championship in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. After knocking down McKay in the eighth round with a vicious body shot, L'Heureux capitalized on McKay still being in pain and out of wind to knockout him out for good 27 seconds into the ninth round. However, in his first fight after winning the prestigious title, L'Heureux was viciously pummeled by American Steve Pannell to lose his undefeated ring record by TKO at 2:31 of the first round. The 6-foot 5-inch tall right-hander has compiled a ring record (as of May 13, 2005) of 14 wins (7 by way of knockout), 1 loss, and 1 draw in 16 contests.
