189
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,239
Speaker 1: No, man, I just I know it's your moment.

190
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 2: I'm playing.

191
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm ready.

192
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 3: I'm ready.

193
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 4: We put it in a lot of work this training camp,

194
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 4: so come fight night, we're coming in there to make

195
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 4: sure we come out Victorias and beat his ass.

196
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's been the message. I feel like the entire

197
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: build up to this is beat his ass, knockout Belta ass.

198
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: What's what's been the mentality is I don't want to

199
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,079
Speaker 1: say switch, but what's been the emphasis on that.

200
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 4: I mean, this is a guy who I know gonna

201
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 4: be very prepared and he's gonna come out there and

202
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 4: I think he's going to push me to a new level.

203
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 4: I think he's going to bring out the best of me,

204
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 4: and I'm ready for it.

205
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: I'm ready. He's been he sat down on me earlier.

206
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,199
Speaker 1: He's been saying that he doesn't think you're going to

207
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: engage in the way you're talking like you're going to.

208
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: He thinks that you're going to be, you know, on

209
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 1: the outside, looking maybe to disengage from the fight with him.

210
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: He's been saying that for a while. Now, what are

211
00:08:59,120 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 1: your thoughts.

212
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 4: That's a method he wanted to use to try to

213
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 4: get me to fight his fight. But I don't fight

214
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 4: nobody else fight. I fight my own fight. So if

215
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 4: I do go out there and move and whatever, nigga,

216
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 4: stop it.

217
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 2: Stop it.

218
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: Make sure you come out there and win, and that's

219
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: what you're supposed to be doing.

220
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 4: Don't complain about what I'm.

221
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 3: Doing, right, stop it from doing what I'm doing.

222
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: And no one's been able to do that, so that's

223
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: why they can't be. You talked about this being your moment.

224
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: You're ready, I gotta talk about it. You look jacked.

225
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 3: Man, it looks like you.

226
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's musty blond stuffing, but man,

227
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 1: you are in shape shape. Has this been just a

228
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:39,959
Speaker 1: different lock in this time around?

229
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 4: Honestly, I think y'all just ain't seen you in a tain.

230
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: Maybe that's what it is.

231
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 2: I don't know.

232
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: I'm like running the tank top today, so I kind of,

233
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: you know, let it all right, I gotta hear some

234
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: girls or something. Okay, So, like you said, the Paida's

235
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: got a great style for you, how do you see

236
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: him approaching this fight. Not to focus on him too much, because,

237
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: like you said, you worry about you and what you

238
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: gotta do. But what do you see him doing?

239
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 4: The thing is right, and this is why he's not

240
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,839
Speaker 4: gonna be able to beat me. He got one style

241
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 4: that he can do, so I know what he's bringing.

242
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 4: I know what he's coming with. He's coming straight in,

243
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 4: coming straight ahead at me, to throw NonStop punches the

244
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 4: entire night. There's nothing different that he's going to do.

245
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 4: I'm levels above him because I know that I can

246
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 4: do whatever I want. So it depends on what I

247
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 4: decide to do that night and how I want to

248
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 4: go in there and fight. You know, sometimes I fight

249
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 4: in the pocket. Sometimes I move a little tiny bit,

250
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 4: but it depends on how I want.

251
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 2: To fight that night.

252
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: How do you see yourself? Obviously you have to adjust

253
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: during the fight, but how do you see yourself fighting?

254
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 4: I see him making me fight. Yeah, I see him

255
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 4: making me fight, and I.

256
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,679
Speaker 1: Think I like to smile though I like that bring it.

257
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 4: I think he don't realize that that's not what he

258
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 4: wants because it's like you back somebody up against a

259
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,439
Speaker 4: corner and it's just gonna wake up a monster. That

260
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 4: he haven't yet to see yet, So tell him break it.

261
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: I think you're excited to bring that monster out for sure?

262
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 4: For sure?

263
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: Does this fight feel like, let me remind y'all who

264
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: I am? Type of fight because it feels like people

265
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 1: have forgotten that you are three times or three division champ,

266
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: you are an Olympian, you are the reigning WBC World champion.

267
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: Is this one of those fights you're like, just in

268
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: case y'all forgot I'm one of, if not the best,

269
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: in the world.

270
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, this one of them kind of fights where it's like,

271
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 4: I remember people watch me with Jamel Henry and they

272
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 4: felt as though I was the best fighter in the

273
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 4: world then. So I think that's gonna be what comes

274
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 4: Saturday night. I think I'm they're going to get that

275
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 4: version of me, but ten times better.

276
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: I've been seeing all this stuff online, man, and maybe

277
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: I shouldn't pay an attention to it. You probably don't either,

278
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: But this Tom and Jerry stuff?

279
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 2: What is this?

280
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: Man? By the way, I saw your gift you quote sweet,

281
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: that was a nice little now like you having fun with.

282
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 3: It though, you know what I mean?

283
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I try not to take it so personal.

284
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 4: Right at the end of the day, It just let

285
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 4: me know how great I am. You got somebody who's

286
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 4: so big as in Turkey and you never see him

287
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 4: troll any fighters. But for the first time it comes

288
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 4: down to me, is like, you want to sit there

289
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 4: and kind of troll me over and over and over.

290
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 4: So it just let me know he's thinking about me.

291
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: Of course, I think that him doing that does for

292
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: sure point out to say, like Turkey al Shake, the

293
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: man that is behind the ring three, the ring itself,

294
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: he's focused on you. Maybe he's focused on you so

295
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,719
Speaker 1: much because he wants to bring whatever he thinks is

296
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 1: the best out of you.

297
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe badt the end of the day, Like I said,

298
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 4: it just let me know how great I am. I

299
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 4: gotta be great if somebody of that stature is sitting

300
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 4: there trolling me over and over.

301
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: So, and it's not just him that the entire world

302
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: of boxing is looking at you. This weekend, Yes, this

Speaker 4: show and tell and I tell everybody that I'm the best.

307
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: How does it feel, though, to do this in your backyard?

00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 4: when we actually get there on Saturday night and get

312
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 4: to the stadium and Armstrong.

313
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: It's crazy right to the stadium like.

314
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 2: It's gonna be.

315
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a real moment.

316
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: Definitely is. So let's let's do this. Let's let's have

317
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: a little visualization right now. Only gonna have to get

318
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: out game plany stuff like that. But you're in the

319
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: main event round one. You're looking across. You see Williams

320
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: of Peta. They ring the bell. What happens?

321
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 4: I ain't trying to give out too much, but you

322
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 4: see me coming out there, boxing them easy, making sure

323
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 4: that I win some early rounds, and I see him

324
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 4: just being tough. He's not going let up, so he's

325
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 4: going to kind of force me into a fighting. That's

326
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 4: when I'm gonna start fighting in, start whooping his ass.

327
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 1: Put that muscle on him, even popping out.

328
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 3: Come on now.

329
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: Last message to the fans that are watching, and also

330
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 1: to William himself, what do you have to say?

331
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 4: I'm the best fighter in the world and fans could

332
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 4: sit there and go against it. But the reason why

333
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 4: my fights look the way they look is because they

334
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 4: are so easy. And come Saturday night, there's gonna be

335
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: another night where I dominate and I show the world

336
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 4: how great I am.

337
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: I can't say it better than that belt to ass

338
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: bel to motherfucking ass there he is the WVC Lightweight

341
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: way COPT presented by The Ring magazine straight away after

342
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 1: an incredible night of fights here in New York City

343
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: and Queens at the Louis Armstrong Stadium.

344
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 3: It was Ring three.

345
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 1: And let me just say, for all of the flag

346
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: that has gone on around the Times Square card and

347
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney and that whole thing, that

348
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: whole debacle, this was a great comeback card for the Ring,

349
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: headlined by two main events and two outstanding performance There's

350
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: really a ton of outstanding performances.

351
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 3: We're gonna talk about it all. What just happened Ring three.

352
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: Standout performances from Shakor Stevenson, a brutal, devastating demolition job

353
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: knockout from Hamsus Shiraz, the breakdown let's go all right.

354
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: So I was in the buildings tonight for Ring three

355
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: and this card was stacked with talent from top to bottom.

356
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 3: Let's talk through the whole card.

357
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: Number one, Rito Susumi, the newest ring ambassador, and you

358
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: know Japanese prodigy has fought on the Times Square card.

359
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: Funny enough, he fought a guy named Lavelle Whittington on

360
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: the Times Square card. I called Lavelle Whittington fights and

361
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: Kaguas Puerto Rico. I called his first fight, not his

362
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: first fight, but one of his fights there. I knew

363
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: it was a tough kid.

364
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 3: Rito got through it. This one.

365
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: He ends it in like I think the second round,

366
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: the start of the second round, hit the guy with

367
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: the body shots a couple different times, came upstairs and

368
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: ended it there. Good performance, good good second win in

369
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: his pro career. They keep saying they're going to fast

370
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: track him. I want to see more before they get

371
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: to that point.

372
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 3: But solid win.

373
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: Then we go to David Morell and in mom Kataev

374
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: and this was one of the fights that I had

375
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: a probably the fight I had the biggest problem with.

376
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: And no disrespect to anyone, nothing like that, but just

377
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: two fighters that are two dogs at one hundred and

378
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: seventy five pounds get in there and duke it out.

379
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: And David Morrell had a solid start to the fight,

380
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: kind of tapered off in the middle, came back strong,

381
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: but in mom Kataev felt like he just continued to

382
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: keep the same pace and keep the same damage and

383
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 1: just over and over and over catch David Morrell with

384
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 1: big time punches, dropped him in the middle of the fight,

385
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: a huge right hand that dropped morel kind of shocked

386
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 1: the whole.

387
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 3: New York crowd.

388
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: I want to say that David Morrel is like a

389
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: minus eight fifty favorite, and I think that's a lot

390
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: of people just not knowing who a mom Kataev is,

391
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: even though he is a excuse my language in there,

392
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: and you know Chechnian, that Eastern European style. And also

393
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: he's built like a brick shit house. Not only that,

394
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 1: but now he's training in Sydney, so he is well versed.

395
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: He's had fights all over and you know, coming into

396
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 1: the fight week, there was a little bit of controversy

397
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 1: around the PD positive test. I think that it was

398
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: explained to me this is the way it was explained

399
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: to me. That that was done in twenty twenty three

400
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 1: out of the Olympics or something like that. But also

401
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: he was an Olympic bronze medalist, so this wasn't like

402
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: a recent test apparently. But neither here nor there. That

403
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: was the controversy the fight itself, though, The controversy was

404
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 1: Daven Morrell, in my opinion, didn't win the fight, and

405
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: mom Kate won the fight, and I thought won.

406
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 3: It pretty clearly.

407
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: He looked like it could even be like seven three,

408
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 1: maybe six four katae of But nevertheless Dave Morel gets

409
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 1: a win, and it was.

410
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 3: It was a tough fight. It was a close fight.

411
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 1: Morel started to come back towards the end of the fight,

412
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: so it wasn't like some massive blood even at the

413
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: rounds are you know, like I said, seven three sixty four,

414
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 1: it was a close fight, but I thought, clearly Kotei

415
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: have won. Yeah, I just thought it was the wrong call,

416
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 1: but we moved. I mean, the good thing about it

417
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 1: is right, I'm a big proponent of not really you know,

418
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: focusing on the o in boxing and it'd being such

419
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: a big thing wins and losses matter of course, but

420
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: these are two tough young fighters. I wouldn't say at

421
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 1: the beginning, but in the early stages of their careers

422
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: that you know can afford a loss if if it happens.

423
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: And also both of the guys get better from a

424
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 1: fight like that in my opinion, So wherever Morell goes next,

425
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: Whereverend mom Kotaev goes next, I think that they're you're

426
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: going to see them be better because of the experience.

427
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:34,880
Speaker 3: They gained tonight.

428
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: And we had Alberto Pueo and Supra Al Mattias. This

429
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: was kind of pinned his fight of the night here

430
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: in Louis Armstrong Stadium.

431
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 3: Everybody looked at this fight.

432
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 1: It was going to be the one fight that jumped

433
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 1: off the page that both fighters were going to go

434
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: in there and dog it out and eventually whoever won,

435
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 1: it was going to be a close one. And honestly,

436
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 1: that's exactly what happened. This was a dog fight literally

437
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: from the beginning. Superra Ail Mattias I don't think took

438
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: one backstep the entirety of this fight, and Alberto Poyo

439
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: boxed very well in my opinion on the back foot

440
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: and Subrail Mattias and Knew WBC super Lightweight Champion. I'm

441
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 1: gonna be honest, Yes, he wins the decision, but I

442
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 1: think the judges got this one wrong and this one

443
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: was a little closer. I'm not super upset about it

444
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: because how close the fight was. But I thought Alberto

445
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: Poyo won this. I thought that he won more rounds.

446
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: And here's why, Super al Matias threw more punches, landed

447
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: more punches throughout the fight, and landed more power punches

448
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: throughout the fight. Now, the difference to me wasn't because

449
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: Alberto Poeo outlanded Super al Matias. In total, Subril won

450
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: rounds with a wider margin Alberto Poeo, I thought one

451
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: more rounds. That's the difference to me. I thought he

452
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 1: won more rounds. But the rounds that Mattias won he

453
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 1: won by a far bigger margin. Again, we'll have to

454
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: look at the copy box numbers and all that, but

455
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 1: it really was I thought Mattias starting very well, Bertopoyo

456
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: started well. Is also, there was a maybe two to

457
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: two fight going into the fifth round. But from that

458
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: fifth round, Mattias I thought, racked up maybe five to six,

459
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: potentially seven, but seven being the swing round where I

460
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: thought poo. As they got into that seventh round maybe eight,

461
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: started to figure out Mattias was just not gonna take

462
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: back steps, so he was gonna fall in behind a

463
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: lot of shots, and Poo, I thought, started out boxing

464
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: him on the back foot, really touching him. Uh when

465
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: he made Mattias miss, he would make him pay. We'll

466
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 1: get back to that saying in just a second, but yeah,

467
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 1: I thought that that Poyo won the fight. It was

468
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: a close one, so I'm not super upset. I'm not

469
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: gonna sit here and call it a robber or anything

470
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 1: like that. And uh, superral Mattias is uh looking. I

471
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 1: think they lined him up. I'm not sure who it

472
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: was at Dalton Smith they lined him up with. I'm

473
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: not sure. They definitely want him in Riod next. H

474
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 1: got in the ring and was like, you're fighting next,

475
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: So Matias was like, sure, but I'm not sure what

476
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna do with Poo next regardless, sanger of a fight.

477
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,479
Speaker 1: Then we moved to the first of two main events,

478
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: and the way this was built of the WBC Lightweight Championship,

479
00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: Mattias and Poeo was a super lightweight. This was Chaque Stevenson,

480
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: williams Apeada and I had thought all week that it

481
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 1: was gonna be a pretty simple game plan for both guys.

482
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: The Peida was gonna do what Zepeta does, which is

483
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 1: throw a shit ton of punches, a barrage, never take

484
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,640
Speaker 1: a backstep, and look to just pressure Chakor to death

485
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: until the levee broke right, just fill the entire body

486
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 1: of water until something breaks and here comes the flood.

487
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 1: While on the other side, Shakur, I thought this would

488
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: work perfectly for him. I thought this was gonna be

489
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: an opportunity for him to have a showcase, to showcase

490
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: his skills, showcase his punching ability off his back foot,

491
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: and to not have to do much work to to

492
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 1: get it done right. It was gonna be Zebeta just

493
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: walking forward, walking into range. That was gonna allow Chakor

494
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: to do what he does best with his CounterPunch. And

495
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 1: I was kind of right, but at the same time

496
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: kind of wrong because the whole narrative around this fight

497
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry, Chakur's gonna run. He's a runner, and

498
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 1: eventually he's not gonna have the gas anymore. Eventually Zepeida's

499
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 1: gonna catch him. That wasn't what happened. Chakour Stevenson font

500
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: this fight like you know, you might compare to the

501
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: to the Valdez fight, but I don't even think you

502
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 1: can really do that. He fought this like no other

503
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 1: fight I've really seen from him, and that is a

504
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 1: credit to him. And I think it's a credit to

505
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 1: Williams of Peyta, because I think they both needed each

506
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 1: other tonight in Louis Armstrong Stateum, what I mean is

507
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: Zepeida brought the best out of Chakhour's offense tonight. I

508
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: think a lot of the things that were said about

509
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,360
Speaker 1: Shakor and the runner and all that made him fight

510
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: in a slightly different way, and Chakor sitting down on

511
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: his punches brought the best out of a paytas Abta

512
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: had to come through with some adversity of his own

513
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: and ended up making for a pretty darn good fight.

514
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: But with that being said, I thought we got one

515
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 1: of the best Shakur Stevenson performances I have ever seen

516
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: tonight because he was taking all of the A game

517
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: I would say of Williams of Peta, which was again

518
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: all the pressure you expected, all the volume of punches

519
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 1: you expected. At one point it was more of a slip,

520
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,959
Speaker 1: but Shakur did get touched with a punch that kind

521
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: of left him off balance, and he got tagged with

522
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: some punches that Shaquar Stevenson usually doesn't get tagged with.

523
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,959
Speaker 1: And that's again a credit to Zapeta, but also Shaqur

524
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: decided to fight this a little different. He decided to

525
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: sit in there with some of the punching and counter

526
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: off and throw more combinations and not look to use

527
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: his moving as much. In fact, there are moments a

528
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: couple of I would say more than a couple. It

529
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: was a bunch of times where Shakor was just on

530
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 1: the ropes, parallel back flat against the ropes and looking

531
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 1: to shoulder roll, catch things on the lead shoulder, bump

532
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: them up, backhand behind it, or catch with the backhand hook,

533
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: backhand hook. And he was tagging Williams of pay to Tonight.

534
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: This was not like pillowhands Chakur or like oh he's

535
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: got brittle hands. He was tagging Williams of Payda Up. This.

536
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 3: I said it on Twitter. This was just a treat

537
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,679
Speaker 3: to see Schakour in person.

538
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to glaze or nothing like that,

539
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: but when you see a guy with that kind of

540
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 1: skill in person, and you get to see the sweet science,

541
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: the actual sweet science, which is make your opponent miss

542
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: and make them pay. Chakur wasn't just using his feet.

543
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 1: Maybe he could have done more with that and it

544
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: would have been a safer fight for him. I think

545
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: he's even said as much.

546
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 3: But when he was there.

547
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 1: Tonight and he was in the pocket and he was

548
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: making to pay to miss and then touching him with

549
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: the jab, then the backhand, it was a treat to

550
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: watch tonight, truly, like I'd never seen a Chakort fight

551
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: in person. Very glad that this was the one I

552
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: got to see because it was probably one of his

553
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 1: best performances. And again you credit that to Shakor, but

554
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: you also have to credit it to Williams of Payda

555
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: because Paida brought that out of Chaqueurta. As far as

556
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: shaquarse Stevenson's concerned listen, one of his best performances. But

557
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 1: in the post fight presser he calls out Tank Davis,

558
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 1: and you know we've all seen the Tank Davis arrests

559
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 1: and subsequent release after. I mean, it's unfortunate, but we

560
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 1: have to tell it like it is, at least from

561
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: what we know right now, another domestic abuse allegation and

562
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 1: arrest for Tank Davis. It's it's a terrible thing. But yeah,

563
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: I mean, this should be the fight. It could be

564
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: one of the biggest fights you can make right now

565
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: in American boxing. Is Chaquee Stevenson and Gervonte Tank Davis.

566
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if they'll do it. I don't even

567
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 1: know if Tank is gonna fight on August sixteenth, let

568
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,959
Speaker 1: alone anything after that. It seems like he has been

569
00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: on a train wreck of a trajectory since the Frank

570
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 1: Martin fight. Honestly, right after the Frank Martin fight, great

571
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: performance that everything else has been so wishy washy.

572
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 3: Does he want to box? Does he wanted to retire

573
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 3: out of the ring?

574
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 1: Stuff that's been going on for a very long time

575
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 1: with Tank, the Roach rematch, what happens there potentially Jake

576
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 1: Paul and now this, So we'll see. But I mean,

577
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: i'd be lying to you if I didn't if I

578
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 1: didn't say I wanted that fight. Of course I want

579
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 1: that fight. Everybody that's even somewhat of a boxing fan

580
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 1: in America would want that fight. So I hope that

581
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: happens next For Shakur if not, I mean, I guess

582
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 1: he can move up to forty, but I think thirty

583
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 1: five is probably where he needs to be.

584
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 3: So who knows.

585
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 1: Uh, we'll have to see kind of what shakes out

586
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: at thirty five. So then we get to the main

587
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 1: event or the second main event, right hamsus Yeriz and

588
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: Edgar Berlanga. And this one was interesting because you had

589
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 1: two guys that were going through a lot of change. No,

590
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,879
Speaker 1: justin Bieber voice, they were going through some changes. On

591
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 1: Edgar Berlanga's side. He I just pronounced Berlanga and Berlanga

592
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: differently in the same sentence.

593
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 3: That's crazy.

594
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,959
Speaker 1: He obviously had lost the Canelo fight and then come

595
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 1: back with a win versus a guy that looked like

596
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: he was.

597
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:05,120
Speaker 3: Melting in real time.

598
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: But you know, Edgar is known as a big power puncher,

599
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: very prideful New Yorker, sixteen knockouts in his first sixteen fights,

600
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: but not a guy you ever looked at as the

601
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 1: super skillful, highest level boxer at one sixty eight, and

602
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: you know, had a lot to prove, especially after that

603
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 1: performance versus Canelo, which was pretty much nonexistent when talking

604
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: about his actual offensive prowess.

605
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 3: That we've seen before that.

606
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: And then on the other side, Hamsa Shiraz, who had

607
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 1: looked like an absolute pheno. I'm at one hundred and

608
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: sixty pounds, had fifteen straight knockouts going into the Carlos

609
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: Sadamis fight. And listen, the Adamas fight was called a tie,

610
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 1: but in my opinion, I love Hamsa but he lost

611
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: to me regardless, it was definitely something that showed him

612
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 1: he needed to make changes. He stops training where he's training,

613
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 1: goes to train with Andy Lee from la to Ireland

614
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: or back from the UK to Ireland, wherever he was,

615
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 1: and then he makes the move to one sixty eight,

616
00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: because good lord, he is sixty three my high fighting

617
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: at one sixty Just for reference, I walk around at

618
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: two ten. I know he's not far off from me.

619
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 1: Used to fight at one fifty four before that. I

620
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: don't know how he ever made either of those weights.

621
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 1: Even now at sixty eight he looks massive, so it

622
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 1: looked like a more replenished Hamsa Hiraz. He had to

623
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: answer a lot of questions though, and tonight was the

624
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: night to do it, because damn did he absolutely destroy

625
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: edgar Berlanga. I mean, obliterate, make him look like an amateur.

626
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: Done and dusted in what was it five rounds And

627
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: it wasn't a particularly hard five rounds. It wasn't like

628
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,959
Speaker 1: there was a back and forth. Hamsa got maybe hit

629
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 1: with one solid punch from Edgar Berlanga, but the fight

630
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: started and the first thing I thought to myself was,

631
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 1: I think the game plan for homs this should be

632
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: to stay long behind his jab, have that longer guard,

633
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: be able to catch things with the rear hand, and

634
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,400
Speaker 1: then poke with the jab and then turn that jab

635
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: into the hook and then bang the right hand behind it.

636
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 1: And for Edgar, I was like, all right, well, you're

637
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 1: at a reach disadvantage. You're not a skilled as Hamsa is.

638
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: He's gonna have to find your way to pham booth

639
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: range inside range, throws those nasty hooks, maybe head movement

640
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 1: off center, catch Homsa with a long jab he overthrows,

641
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: bang the right hand the left hook, something like that.

642
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 1: And yeah, we'd seen that Edgar is vulnerable to the

643
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: left hook as well. It kind of throws the arms

644
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: out at a jab faint and then the hook behind

645
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:20,439
Speaker 1: it can catch him. So I thought maybe there were

646
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: some opportunities at range again for Hamsa, but this fighting

647
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 1: turned out to be almost completely different. I did not

648
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: understand how good Hamsa Hiraz.

649
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 3: Was on the inside.

650
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 1: For a guy that's my height six y three, he

651
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: works like a technician on the inside, and he was

652
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: outworking Berlanga and outlanding Berlanga on the inside, damaging him

653
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: with big time punches. Touched him on the chin in

654
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: the first round with a hook from inside. The jabs

655
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 1: were going back and forth. Berlanga had some great success

656
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 1: with his jab to the kind of start of the fight,

657
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: but then it was Homsa just building and building, getting

658
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: closer and closer again on the inside with combination punching,

659
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: and you were starting to think, okay, it's just a

660
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: matter of when if now for Hams the Sharaz, if

661
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: he's gonna touch Eggar on the chin, how is for

662
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 1: longer gonna take it? That's a different thing. But then

663
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: we got to the I think that was the fourth round,

664
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 1: where again things were starting to heat up there, ramping up,

665
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: and Hamsa got to the inside. It was almost, you know,

666
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: pushing to get to the inside and pushing to get

667
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: inside close range, and I saw one combination that went, oh, oh,

668
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: Hamsa really wants to be inside. He threw a lead

669
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: hand uppercut, bang the hook around the side, hurt Egar

670
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: with that, and you could see Edgar's face kind of

671
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: change a little bit.

672
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 3: You see him WinCE a little bit.

673
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 1: And then you saw Edgar do what I thought maybe

674
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: only he could do, which was get desperate and start

675
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: lunging a little more, start getting a little more reckless,

676
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: which I thought, if Hamsa kept things long and at range,

677
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: Edgar would do sooner or later. But this was more

678
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 1: Egar feeling the power of Hams the sharaz, banging the

679
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: lead uppercut, banging the hook around the outside to the body.

680
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: And then when the hands fell and there was a

681
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 1: little bit of time to trade, Hamsa dug in big

682
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 1: left hook, right hand left hook hurts Egar Berlanga sends

683
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: him to the canvas, and ladies and gentlemen, This kid

684
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: has some punching power. It was devastating the way he

685
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 1: was landing Bologa, Yes, got dropped against canelo, kind of popped.

686
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:17,719
Speaker 3: Back to his feet. I thought that was a mistake.

687
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: Here he pops up a little quick, you know, hits

688
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 1: the gloves together. Referee says, all right, go again, and

689
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: Sharaz dropped him again with another big right hand and

690
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: uh Verloanga got up again. Fair play, he did show

691
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 1: hard it then got saved by the bell because ten

692
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: more seconds and Berloga would would have been eating canvas,

693
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 1: and honestly before long he would anyway, because the fifth

694
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: round comes and just as the round starts, Tomsa just

695
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 1: cracks him again with another combination and that's it.

696
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 3: And that's all, and the entire crowd was in.

697
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 1: A freaking frenzy because hams of Sharaz put on a nasty,

698
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: nasty performance. It was insane how good he was at

699
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: close range, how powerful his shots were. Could you attribute

700
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 1: the car Carlos Saddamas fight to the hurt hand, is

701
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: what was said around that time, Maybe the weight cut.

702
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, but this looked like a completely different guy.

703
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: And yes, Egar Berlanga clearly now is no Carlos Adamas.

704
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: But still what I'm about to say, in no way,

705
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: shape or form actually matters because fights are judged as

706
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 1: individuals and you can't really do boxing or mma.

707
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 3: Math because it just doesn't work.

708
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:22,239
Speaker 1: Right.

709
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 3: This guy beat this guy.

710
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,479
Speaker 1: So this guy will have to beat that dude, right,

711
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't work. But we did see Edgar Berlanga take

712
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: a bit of a bump popularity and in people's minds

713
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 1: as a boxer based on the fact that he went

714
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: twelve rounds with Canelo. Yes, Canelo dusted him, Yes it

715
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: was it was fairly easy. Yes, Canello dropped him. But

716
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 1: Canelo didn't do that to Egar Berlanga. And sure, you

717
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 1: could say, you know what, Canelo hit him so many

718
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: times that Egar just wasn't the same after that fight,

719
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: or you can say it doesn't really matter way to

720
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: what happened in the Canelo fight because this is completely different.

721
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 1: And I'll agree with both of those things potentially, But

722
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: then you also have to understand what I'm saying is

723
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 1: Humsus Shariza, his first fight at one hundred and sixty

724
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 1: eight pounds, did what no one else could do to

725
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 1: Edgar Belong and that is absolutely obliterate him inside five rounds.

726
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: That's at least worth acknowledge. And he's young, he's with

727
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: a great trainer in Andy Lee, he's got a great

728
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: frame for one sixty eight.

729
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 3: Good lord, he's just tall. Again. I keep saying it,

730
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 3: but his reach, his height.

731
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 1: So let's see. Let's see before we just immediately dismissed

732
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: this as oh it's it's Berlanga And okay, Edgar Berloin

733
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 1: is not as good as we thought. Maybe, but that

734
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 1: performance verhams Ariz at least acknowledges that he's a real

735
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 1: threat at one sixty eight.

736
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 3: I don't know.

737
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 1: Again, if we're talking Canelo level, I don't know, but

738
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: he is a damn good fighter, and he showed that tonight.

739
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 3: What a performance by him, What a card here at

740
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 3: ring three. This thing was insane.

741
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: I hope you guys watched and enjoyed because I had

742
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:44,680

00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 1: covered it as much in my rise as I am now,

748
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: and I know it's a bit of a switch. But

Speaker 1: I hope you guys are enjoying some of this because

750

Speaker 1: world and all that. I don't think I ever would

752
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,440
