and here inside the Detroit Masonic Temple our main event features one of the sports most popular current fighters two-time Olympic gold medalist Caressa shields shields drops down and wait in the hopes of capturing two more championship belts to do it she'll need the best for most accomplished opponent to date Donna Gabriel's the current unified 154 pop champion Gabriel's moves up and wait four titles in a third division my partner Steve Farhad and an opportunity to talk with both champions earlier tonight Hannah Gabriel's you're moving up and wait the rest is coming down I know you've been asked this question a lot but how will weight impact this fight we don't know until I feel right but really and truly I believe that when you learn to to do other things the power and all of that you know it plays it plays something but not everything so I feel very confident about my job and all that we've been working on and we'll see I just hope that you enjoy it a lot when you when somebody asks you how are you gonna fight Claressa you said definitely not the way all the other women have fought her so what is your plan gonna be I'm just gonna be technical aggressive there's no way you can win to Clarisse of being passive or being you know expecting to catch her because she's very fast and she has so much stamina and is so aggressive that you know you get you got to step up to the game just like as aggressive as she is so I'm just very excited because I haven't been that aggressive in a while and so I'm just excited to see how this will work out we're excited to a good luck Hannah thank you so much Claressa Shields I saw the look on your face yesterday when they announced the weight you were like yeah you were relieved so how is weight gonna play a factor in this fight I don't think it is she's coming up and going down with me right in the middle so I mean she walks on that 175 I walk around by one lady I think we're both coming down and it should be a good fight you have said that Hana Gabriel's is on paper or Wharf paper the best fighter you fought so far what kind of fight are you expecting almost piuser gifts these are legs hopefully she has some heart today and not and I try to run and prove to me that I'm not the greatest woman of all time tonight but um I'm here to prove the exact opposite I am the greatest woman of all time and that uh you know I'm a different fighter than any fighter she's ever fought you know I heard 18 wins and her knockouts I'm not neat other girls I'm a totally different animal the guy who's taping your hands right now one of the top trainers and boxing John David Jackson it's your first fight with him what will we see a little bit different um I'm gonna use my skills a lot more I'm not gonna be so aggressive I'm gonna take my time use my jab and he taught me some new combinations so hopefully I use them oh that's a good luck thank you and back here at the Detroit Masonic Auditorium Steve Farhad has rejoined me here and Steve we've now watched Claressa Shields we've seen her in three of her five previous fights this will be the fourth one tonight and I think quite frankly we've seen some opponents who before punch was even thrown we're all done dancing I do not get that sense with her opponent tonight I don't believe Hannah Gabriel is odd at all not at all one thing I do notice Barry you know attitude is so important with fighters I think Gabriel's has been very deferential to Claressa Shields where Claressa says you know I want to K if I can kick but everything else will be fine so I used the word arrogance as a compliment I see it slightly in Christina hammer and I definitely see it in Claressa Shields it's an attitude like I'm just not gonna be beaten and we'll see if attitude translates into what happens inside the ring yeah I think one thing is fairly certain and that is we're gonna see a fight break out here in Detroit to that end here again is row Marquez and let me just put it to you this way how do you see this thing playing out what's gonna happen here what Barry shoes is naturally the bigger fighters he needs to use their physical strength to I'll muscle her and just break her down kind of work on Cyn down more and her power shots to try to get a knockout we haven't seen a knock up of prism and hope that the wave drop doesn't affect her stamina and power not for Gabriel she can't afford to go toe to toe she's got to move in and out use a lateral movement her speed and just be smart in there know when to engage and take into the later rounds this is a very intriguing fight between two established world champions that are testing their bodies body's just a matter of who could adapt to the new conditions tonight Barry and the one thing of course and Steve mentioned is and that is the fact that Claressa Shields with a new trainer this time around and we'll see what effect if any that has should be a very entertaining fight though it is our main event of the evening Panna Gabriel's and Claressa Shields 35 year old Panna Gabriel she'll be making her debut tonight having fought 14 of her 20 fights in her native Costa Rica and the rest in either the Caribbean or South America the 11-year pro won the WBO welterweight title back in December 2009 then she moved up and wait and won two WBO junior middleweight title in May of 2010 she made three successful defenses of that 154 final before losing it in February of 2015 Gabriel's regained the title in December 14th that has defended it five times she added the in TV a version in June of 16 she comes up a unanimous decision win / øx Andy and Castillo who four years earlier had given KBO's her only defeat as a pro tonight trying to win titles in the 3rd division against a naturally bigger opponent and in a hostile territory Steve give us the keys to victory for Hannah Gabriel well bury we store with score and move Gabriel's doesn't need a slugfest if she can punch without getting countered show avoid one slip the jab and her two fights without Sandia Castillo Gabriel's was hit way too often by the jet she has to improve that part of her defense and countered don't leave if she can get shields to punch first Gabriel has a better chance of landing her own power [Applause] [Music] and you hear the crowd begin to react to one of their own well Russell shields seems to be the whole package Garan Ernie the Detroit just off the road the winner of two Olympic gold medal she turned pro a year and a half ago at just 23 years of age already she holds two super middleweight championship belts tonight she performs in the first half as we said under the tutelage of trainers John David Jackson worth more than shield's becoming a better and more selective puncher she wants to be the greatest food [Applause] to try and take another step in that direction dropping down and wait to fight the most decorated fighter in Iran the keys to victory for progressive shields well bury one of the keys is going to be this crowd but otherwise cut off the ring Gabriel is going to try to move in and out shields needs to keep punching range at all Nik her punches by carefully choosing and placing or powershot shields will have a better chance of hurting every they go to the body a body attack is the best way the shields to make the most of birth size

remember women's boxing these are two-minute rounds so here we go ten rounds for two belts [Applause] you can see gabriel's grant ggressive right out of the box she got counted prettiest usually there yesterday dropping her hands [Applause] Sheils very obliging and will just hit her multiple times if she comes in like that exactly you have to stay calm in the heat in the moment right now shield is very very calm very composed after a putt there yeah I think they've Bankhead [Music] [Applause] [Applause] combination again some big bombs being thrown by I'll sealed I gave you a feel for them [Applause] good seven it was an uppercut that put her down [Applause] we've talked about shields never haven't overcome adversity in the we are [Applause] now we're Gables asked oh boy it is time if you careless it feel too confident get out since the doctor pop it in no culture pop it in pop it in mouthpiece [Applause] about pieces in the ring the referee does not see it Bob get that mouthpiece for that medic given him choose couple of minutes to em you have enough seconds to clear her head [Applause] well I'll say an action first run thanks - hi - Gabriel does it come over life no anxious take your time what's the jab cut the ring up and go to the body you don't think okay [Applause] don't look for that long right hand dipped in with that short when we talked about Sydney first knock down under fluorescent shields grows a right uppercut the left hook was dressing they may have knocked her out over but the right uppercut clearly was the punch with the left hook that hurt shield and there she watches it goes down she watches her mouthpiece come out of her mouth and go across the ring I would say that's quite an unexpected moment yeah I would say yeah I think she was very shocked he was very surprised but I think she took it pretty well got back up and then swing wild took her time I was gonna say I don't think she was really hurt by it she certainly stuck but for the first time in career fluorescent shields a tall one leaves behind 10 8 apart exactly [Music] [Applause] here's John David Jackson said take it easy in the corner that's funny what Gabriel's got counted in the first round I said yeah she's gonna back off a little bit she's gonna calm down well she didn't and her game plan is exactly what she told me in the dressing room before aggressiveness she wants to try to overwhelm or Elsa she worked in the first round box you know that head button first round 2 this is swelling on the left cheek of Gabriel's that was from the head back yeah chest high cheekbones to the game [Applause] half of shields davyous comes back with one of her own Victor's got some pocket I think she's got rocked again yes you can't afford the flail away I think that type she's got damn pills attention effects apparel Senate think we've all waited for the time as a professional work Loretta Shields would be tested off me early in this fight but she's being tested by somebody who's a jazzy that fighting like a woman who's determined that thinks she can win and to some extent is kind of match it with the speed you know if it's a favor to hear better action second round [Applause] there's a grad Tommy Hearns absolutely Detroit royalty now promoter yes show here with Jackie Kallen tomorrow I even Thomas Knox wasn't necessarily the best fighter of the eighties berry but he was the most exciting fighter of the game it was about my most exciting around the boxing I've ever seen [Applause] Wow listen when I was in my allowing summer I didn't let you and I got arrested shields can throw a lot of punches at one time here she goes the left hook back Gabriel's and then shields keeps firing both hands but after those first two missed put a lot yeah and she has to be careful that you know that she's fighting a an opponent who can hit her and hurt her apparently she isn't be careful not to leave herself open in those exchanges [Applause] shields that swelling is getting worse [Applause] with body shot from Gabriel's [Applause] Gabriel's now more intent on picking a spot sighs okay looks like it get Clarissa trying to find her now bounder there with a overhand right but David has had an answer here's a no right hand from shields to body shots from Gabriel's shields made a lot more patient as well here three jabs on this [Music] what Davis herky-jerky style you know how to bouncing her and good speed the back popped get that plastic put me buddy I think chills is finding her distance now with the jab can't get lazy in there now keep your hands up where we talked about Claressa Shields and needing to cut the ring off I don't think really that's relevant right now because Gabriel is not showing that much lateral movement more forward moving cheers found a second-rate game those misses [Applause] and a good job by gamers got over the lefthand got out exactly that's a veteran move first round still feel like she was trying to load up with every shot [Applause] give it too much you see Simon kind of several drive away do it now [Applause] goodbye son you twirl go back to the body for me right handle for you do me a favor you buy that right hand come back with Loretta shields we'll move her hands she's been averaging 60 something punches around in a two minute round that projects to almost 100 for three minute round this is the same we playing you see that Gabriel sort of rode with that right handle of it but it still landed flush and I gave shields around that's it because they can't give it to Gabriel's but I believe I gave it to shields and have to fight even Round four [Music] [Applause] you know this more measured days is what I've seen on tape with Gabriel she's just getting hit with a left hook there but this is more how she knew to be fighting supposed to what she did in round one right anthem shields they're over the top I agree with you as we look at your scorecard here you even fight right now the tape first round I'm gonna say wow my grooves knew that shield state necessity to load up with every shot yeah she's good you know to get over anxious you know I'm gonna go back to the corner John Davidson kind of settle for down put take your time take your time pop that dev out there find the right distance don't load up with every shot Gabriel's are still errors still some pop but guys you know that anytime you score a knockdown especially unexpected knock down around one that can have a negative effect as well but then you start looking for the one shot maybe the same shots it takes you out of your game plan I'm suggesting that's necessarily think mentally it might be I I agree it had to ruin her mentally because she came in here you know with the big crowd very confident this is gonna dominate I'm no cheating expect to get dropped in the first round sit down got a mess with her head first one knocked down like that could that wasn't both their head yeah I wasn't implanted that was another in the game plan that wasn't her plan of get dropped everyone is that about videos to this day while Gabriel's work right now way down way down [Applause] [Music] to the back [Applause] breathe [Music] [Applause] go open your mouth a little bit that Richter let's lower the body first the lead just I mean you could do it come on you could do it [Music] this is rob5 they want gabriel's to work the body first [Music] no barrier I talked about star power for these women we're seeing tonight Costa Rica's never had a male world champion she's Gabriel's the only female world champion ever had this fight is on live in Costa Rica right now and you can imagine the whole country's watch absolutely not just the World Cup you know and the soccer team lost [Applause] [Applause] different site as he sat down from Gabriel's upon her fight yeah now shields needs to cut off the ring she's getting a lot of louder of movement Gabriel thought wonder if Gabriel's didn't blow a lot of energy in that first line whole life whole and I know she's used to fighting long fights with the champions but [Applause] a world with that maybe that's a wake-up call for Gabriel's to all of a sudden versus prefetch combination yo Gabe Rose is being reduced to someone's looking for that one punch [Music] [Applause] and you know she is the smaller fighter and there used to find out one get before Larissa is coming down from 1 to stage is he lives with a bigger so maybe her just a bodyweight is when Deborah's down big wheels breathing through the mouth down well floressa shield historically fights with her mouth open shields now you can sense starting to take control Gabrus Holden [Applause] it's halftime of this fight and because of what happened in round 1 Shields has dominated most of the rest of the action but isn't up very much on the cards you see her jabs a4 jab advantage and the power shots on the 11 power shot advantage so not a big edge but here is the story of the fight early at least watch the right hand right uppercut right there heard shields and follow-up left hook put it down that foot shields two points down on the cards now she's made that up at least on my card with furious combination punching just like this and as the rounds have mounted we've seen sheõs continuing where the flurries and Gabriel is only doing it in spots and now Shields is the aggressor Gabriel's buying time the lateral movement [Applause] this is round six Gabrielle's had the lowest punch output about five [Applause] yeah Cheers breathing through mouth now wild shields back shields is still one of the things John David Jackson told us he was good and tried to do it she else's get her set down her punches she still seems a while too she does feel strolling more landing more box maybe not equaling the volume we've seen in the past but you've taken control of this fight her definitely that's what I'm talking about every shot that she's loading up look at ya pick a shot table the side pacer shots Todd's Todd's then the power side and that's what John David Jackson or do train has been stressing rise there's two jabs of the right nice combination [Music] people my Claressa Shields never scored a knockdown of the car now let's have breathing through her mouth also that still seems stronger the two [Applause] there's really no reason for shields to be fighting off the ropes [Music] that was a good shot straight right hands socata live here she was trying to finish to the florist [Applause] Nana Gabriel's came to life a little bit around 6:00 he has shields on the ropes let gets hit with the right hand with her shoulder and doing the Mayweather shoulder all didn't work and then a furious exchange in the end of the round I watch a left hook coming from Gabriel shields a little wild a little wide with those shots perhaps not picking her punches as much as John David Jackson want but you see she landed a big right hand and another right hand and did win that exchange wake up around 7:00 for us his shield was dropped to the first draft but as at least PR i--'s has taken control at this fight is effective controlled and he gave rosy nose he's making a mistake and back it up straight in the last round she's almost had her out the back comes straight Davis back those flavors she's really getting hit with big power shots I just noticed you seen a hammer over there watching the fight wonder what she's thinking another exchange here boys getting there good night handsome shields Gabriel's fighting a fusion of the law good right hand again my shields Gabriel still right there Gabriel's only chances to lead the big power shot I wonder if these exchanges while dominated by shields she shouldn't back off a little bit box a little bit more good left hand slipped in by shields last exchange who's got her mouth open I wonder which women I mean they're both swingin one of us gonna punch yourselves out but shields has something to give our energy that Gabriel's doesn't that's the crowd yes they chant Akira [Applause] you're slapping [Applause] well I think that just the cloud ski but I think you know she'll steals that you know she's got a lot of private she feels like she carries woman boxing [Applause] that shields in control of names [Applause] interested spectator with her trainer [Applause] if Christina that was probably saying to herself yeah this is a pretty in a ditch entertaining action fight but I don't fight my kind of game is I find a whole different style so whatever Claressa Shields is doing isn't gonna work against me we do these exchanges toward the end of the read out there against shields a little more pinpoint with her shots but again fighting off the ropes and I just don't think with a presumed lead on points I don't know that she needs these big exchanges left hook there by Gabriel does she have one more punch in her to make this engine I think the higher [Applause] round number eight [Applause] they brought one shield was not only dropped but a bunch more connects to Gabriel wind chills that had never happened to cross a river to cross but in every round since she's out munch and I blended Gabriel [Applause] see these kind of moments where not much is happening I think a huge advantage to shield I agree the only way she's gonna lose this fight is to get caught my shields [Applause] but yeah Gabriel disorder comes in with her head [Applause] I think this a very good fight for shields a good fight to have oh yeah I'm gonna learn a lot from this fight you know she's fighting a champion of hoots fighting with the champions mentality meaning that when things aren't going right she's still trying to win don't know if she has enough energy to win at this point camera look who's coming forward we're games stop [Applause] rocks she's still making shoes work not making them easy first he's gotta think this again techno rounds off get it on the left hand then shield those are not wild get short and compact with that look good left hand slipped in a gun by Gabriel's kind of just to keep her honest [Applause] you're gonna see the headbutt right here they were both coming in shields recoils she's got to be careful to keep her hands up there though [Applause] okay good for you do it mine that damn all these sounds great to me now every time they give a little face round 9 [Applause] we're still trying [Applause] the others right and she has been 10 once gave us the 10 ohm or four times well she was these them rounds [Applause] again a good exchange the devil is still really trying but finishing second left hands and shields and a right behind it [Music] [Applause] she grabs in the right hand we talked a lot about the best size would impact this fight with shields coming down awaiting Gabriel's going up I don't think it's an I think Shields is right when she said to me I don't think it's gonna back the fight that much Shields hasn't hurt gabriel's maybe her to wash it twice it hasn't been an inside fight [Applause] conceals again gave Moses there [Music] [Applause] right hand again from Cheers [Applause] I'm sure shields is think of what I have to hit her with what it was like that with 20 messages but sometimes you question her power yeah [Applause] we should point out Gabriel is you know one loss was stopped in the second round by us on the appeal [Applause] yes [Music] [Applause] okay right [Music] [Applause] screw it up in the temples I mean Oh oh yeah sure keep telling my throat shooting it downstairs and up that's right let's hear it Detroit this is the tenth and final round in your main event so 10th round the crowd loves at the spin an action fight sure has Gabriel has landed more punches against shields and any shields at previous applause but good 17th punches landed that's a lot [Applause] [Music] [Applause] shields seems to me to be an excellent shape despite and you can see just a few a little nuance of terms it John David Jackson has worked with her on punches by large illustrated good exchanges yeah heels a winning image [Applause] guilty peppering her and every time she does Daniels comes back here she's tough that time Gabriel's held after a row buddy's gotta cut down don't matter anymore thirty-second [Applause] maybe I Chi Chi yeah left cheek that's gonna end hello aunt started for the battle hey gamers fought all the way did ya give it here absolutely she did a great test to Claressa Shields we're out here she's done enough to win the fight but a heck of a test [Applause] [Music] clarissa shields got dropped she got cut dropped in the first round cut in the last round pushed the whole way and put it a bunch of times yeah that's a part of learning and you know getting better than absolute absolute fighters can't deal with that moving cut to get head-butted then they've dropped I think that's supposed to be learned is I think I think you can make a case for this is by far our best performance despite being knocked out because of the quality yes and she had to deal with as you said deal with the first at the first time [Music] well now the scoreboard is clean and you know what everybody would be talking about that's right the possibility at least of a mash-up between assuming Christina excuse me assuming for us to show us wins this have won this fight which i think is a given pair assumption if timer and shields if that fight is made they'll be fun for all four and wait so we're gonna happen and this Belsen by Gabriel now hey I said I Pacey Gabriel's anytime I think that'll be a head-on collision between both of the fighters to repeal certain tasks April yeah [Music] Brown one was a shocker here if we talk about Claressa Shields overcoming adversity this is what you had over they exchanged Gabriel's lens out right uppercut left hook combo drop shields first knockdown of shield is career so from that point on when they exchanged shields almost always got the better of it Gabriel remain in the fight remain dangerous landing at the right distance interestingly the bigger woman she did not have a reach advantage in this fight halfway market was more of the same can't really say that Gabriel's was ever in danger of getting stopped [Applause] and then in spurts as you see here when they would trade gabriel's remain dangerous had enough energy to trade with Claressa Shields but did not do enough to win the round that was a heck of a night of boxing I'll tell you I think both women both assuming again the closest Shields wins this fight she Christina hammer both were very impressive that was the last cut for the headbutt that you can see on the cheek I'm fluorescent shields here's how it happened yeah this is the last minute of the 10th round right there Gabriel's was against the ropes came forward her arms hood down but her hedges up all right so let's find out the how the judges saw this one we go to the center of the ring once worn our ring announcer Pete Trevino people ladies and gentlemen let's have a big round of applause for both of the fighters in this ring after 10 championship rounds of boxing we go to the judges scorecards for a decision judge Procopio scores the contest 97 to 92 judge Ancona scores the contest 98 to 91 and judge Hayes scores the contest 97 to 92 all for your winner by unanimous decision and new WBA and IBF female middleweight champion of the world Claire Reza see [Music] [Applause] while there is your winter Claressa Shields and she had a deep down to earn this victory dropped for the first time in her career on a dazzling uppercut by Hannah Gabriel's in the very first round she had a fight back Gabriel's dead no quit in her whatsoever stayed on top of her come about the third round to the end it was shields at one most of the exchanges and I again I really do feel that we've now seen her in four of her six professional fights I was more impressed with her in this fight than any other despite the fact that she did get dropped and really had to dig down to win it it was not an easy victory for her but she fought a very tough person in front of her and that's what makes me impressed with Claressa Shields now of course the road is open and we'll find out what she has to say about it as we go to Steve Farhad with Clarissa shoe first we're gonna talk to Hannah Kate real you scored a knockdown in the first round did that change your mentality in the fight did you try for a knockout after that or how did that affect your your thinking no no no you didn't affect me at all first of all thank you everybody for coming you've been great and then you didn't didn't change my mind at all I kept working she's very fast and she does have a lot of power you know I'm a smaller kid and I'm probably feeling more but um it was a great sight I don't think the difference was a big but you have to trust the judges in this game and then I'll accept my my last with dignity and our state oh I did my gave my own you've certainly fought like a champion how would you rate Claressa Shields power oh she's powerful I think I probably landed more punches or the same I don't know but um like I said I'm not gonna make excuses she's got the win today I'm still a 154 champion you know you have to stay tall this is a fight between champions for defense I don't think it went wrong at all he's a good excellent fight and we look forward to seeing you again you are a true champion it's so much [Applause] Claressa Shields that the row brothers here congratulating you Hana Gabriel's congratulating you you said to us before the fight this was going to be your toughest fight you sense that now that you've been through the fight describe the fight to us describe Hana Gabriel's as an opponent well we had to come up with it before I see why she brought a girl that's smaller than it she's strong she caught me with his shot in the first round and that's not new I said okay she just want to move in like I'm like I said catch me off balance and then land a big shot after him with the big shot I would think to myself you still got it make sure you got to be smart you should jab move ahead and tie her up I've seen this six round she start getting tired I fought her some more but you know she has some heart and she fought her ass off and she showed that she was a champion well we're all like I said I'm the great woman of all time I can you put on my ass get back up fights her rounds and win I'm sure you knew how you would respond in adversity but this was really the first fight in which you had adversity in that first round that knockdown pretty much came out of nowhere yet you won every round after that how did you do that I'm telling you my mind I could tell you the whole fight round by round I could tell you what I got hit with probably what the second was on the bill I was like either way it goes tonight is my night I'm gonna make history I gotta show the world one of the great women of all time like I said I'm mad I put on mass but it wasn't over she tried to get me actually tried to give me our second round in third round I want every round after knockdown and I show Who I am I show that any now I'm really dangerous because they know they could knocks me down and I'm gonna get back up and I'm gonna fight harder I'm gonna shape I do not supposed to do the obvious question the question everybody asks she's here she fought on this card it's Christina hammer [Applause] [Applause] I think that speaks for itself Barry will go back all right thanks very much and a very nifty move I might add Steve to get away from that scintillating right hook and let me say this is raul marquez joins me here i think steve is the greatest announcer of all time i was trying to go up there and protect steve there you know we're we're team it's my job to look out for both for you guys you were ready I've been a lot of emotion going on right now yeah that's what it is I mean and and you know Christina hammer she added she's had a chance to kind of take a blow and she or she already showered and cleaned up Caressa she'll still smile she's still hot and Chrissy the pattern knows how to get under her skin that's what happened like you said she was just finished fighting she still heated up she's probably not a hundred percent satisfied with her performance I mean she got the win know one thing first you know she's dealt with a lot of adversity everybody saw she got dropped in the first round that was shocked and she didn't expect that but what I did like about her there is she got back up and took her time I expected her to go wild and crazy and try to not gonna knock her opponent out Gabe rose but no she took your time she regained her thoughts put her toes together establish the jab he started winning rounds she also got cut she also got head-butted and as you know she went ten really tough rounds for only the second time in her career with Nelson she went ten rounds but everything went her way this fight she couldn't take any rounds off she had to keep thinking every round and that kind of fight is gonna help her for the Christina hammer fight but she the hammer total different style she's not gonna stand in front of her like Gabriel's did so I'm looking forward to this deep fried here for a moment and and as we said I was warm pressed with tonight then I have been into the other fights and that was because of the caliber of opponent that she fought that said I was extremely impressed with Christina hammer I can't wait for this fight to happen you can't wait and part of the reason is you know we project when we see two fighters who are going to fight each other next we hope that is the case you can't project much off of this because Hana Gabriel's and Christina hammer have totally different styles and will present different problems to Claressa Shields so in that sense is not that much to learn although we learned a lot about Claressa Shields coming off the floor obviously they caught not much of a factor but I think if they were trying to sell the fight Barre they could have done so without having me as at their yeah but I don't think you needed to be the fall guy almost literally in that case but was Raul when I needed he was there for you he was there for he was standing next to me saying boy I hope Steve does okay but that's a fight you know I think back to Laila Ali and and wolf they never fought each other they were 168 pounders these women will be 160 I think the fight will happen it makes sense for it to happen and they didn't even need that little exchange in the ring at the end of the fight it wasn't necessary and I think people will want to see that fight regardless that's what I think too I mean it is the cliche that styles make fights I think those two styles should make for a great fight what a night of boxing it's pretty you you
