Thomas Dulorme
Thomas Dulorme will take on Hank Lundy as part of an HBO tripleheader on December 6 in Brooklyn, according to Dan Rafael of espn.com

In the main event, Dabid Lemieux will take on Gabriel Rosado in a Middleweight bout. James De La Rosa will take on Hugo Centeno in a Jr. Middleweight bout.

Asked to assess Dulorme’s chances, Dulorme’s promoter Gary Shaw said, “It’s a good fight and it will depend if Lundy moves a lot or wants to exchange with Dulorme. One fighter won’t be there to hear the bell for the 10th and final round.”

“This is make or break for Dulorme as he needs to make a statement,” Shaw said. “Mayfield was a bad style. I believe [Dulorme] has been with [new trainer] Robert Garcia long enough to pick up the pointers and now we have [new manager] Cameron Duncan to give his expert opinion as well. With a good showing Dulorme can challenge for a world title.

“I always knew that Dulorme had star potential. This is his third fight on HBO and he must deliver or HBO will find someone else.”

“I’m ready to show the world,” Lundy told ESPN.com. “Dulorme can’t fight on the inside and can be outboxed. His chin is not all that good. He eats right hands. I’ve been waiting to fight on HBO; it feels good. All the hard work has and will pay off, and the world will see the best-kept secret. Another star from Philly will be born Dec. 6.”
