days notice after billy joe saunders was bounced by the massachusetts commission failed his drug test they would not license him always a difficult thing in this day and age what do you do then because you've been training for a fight that's demetrius andre there's a lot at stake you want the event to go on what do you do in this case they go to namibia to a fighter who is 17-0 and now gets the chance of a lifetime and a wbo belt at 160 pounds [Music] this is the chance of a lifetime for contendakwa going against a very skilled fighter and now making his entrance to the ring the two-time world champion demetrius [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] well this is quite the look his nickname is booboo and they're taking the halloween thing very seriously evidently we are i'm glad you guys are speechless yes the entire team too yes everybody is there is there a movie i'm missing with these masks or is that uh anybody no i don't know either i could be missing something that's easy to do andre though is a very skilled fighter very accomplished amateur only a second fight at middleweight he was a wbo beltholder at junior middleweight was stripped of that belt for inactivity looking at stripped of a belt for all sorts of reasons the main thing though is he's 30 years old and sergio he is a smooth fluid boxer yes he is he does everything's pretty much right he's an olympian he's a two-time world champion he's uncheap he's avoided but he's unpopular because he needs that name on his resume sometimes he doesn't take the right risk to try to capitalize on his performances [Music] [Applause] i'm fine 33 years old the older fighter in the ring andrade with a height advantage it's a six foot one both coming in of course it weighed 160 pounds the reach is the same unified rules of course what we have had all throughout the night no standing eight no three knock down rule you cannot be saved by the bell in any round and only the referee can stop the fight

[Applause] okay gentlemen you both see over here over here focus we both receive your instructions beta commands protect yourselves at all time right now under the lettuce that's low on the lettuce here that's low top it up here we go here we go interesting andre was wandering maybe he doesn't like the stare down he doesn't really want to look it in the eye main event here demetrius expected to come in and have a big fight against philly joe saunders he is still fighting for a wbo belt at 160 pounds and we're underway and it should be interesting ray leonard sergio mora first round as andre gets a look at something he just has not seen or has had the ability to even scout one thing that stands out to me andre is a big middleweight junior mental weight i didn't expect him to be this big he looks like a six foot one six foot two in there yeah you know andre is listed six one counting doctor we had five eleven and he looks like he's much taller yeah it's not [Applause] [Applause] no question no this this looks like a fight at 68. doesn't it leave maybe 175.75 he looks like you know bob foster is of course a light heavyweight champion let's see what calcium has he is 33 years old he's from namibia took the fight on 10 days notice it's his first fight outside of africa she has 17-0 so again he is untested but he is successful [Applause] i have seen andre at many events where he will walk up and say to me when am i going to get my chance and i said no you deserve it the guy can really box there's been a number of things in his career that have slowed him up management issues promotional issues basic you know boxing tricks as linux lewis would call it now though he gets to fight for another belt not against the guy he wanted but it is an opportunity for him to shine i got a better one when i won the contender i remember uh he told me i need someone to fight how about you juggle not me andre andre is one of these guys that no one wants to fight because he's so good he's been good since the amateurs he's just just he's an all-around excellent boxer he's a southpaw he's tall he has enough pop to get respect he has a high iq you know decorated amateur this is a guy we were talking about this earlier like what would you say [Applause] but there's no warning and roberto is just gonna have to [Applause] left in this first round but maybe a chance to take this man out his hand is clear now all right that happened fast that was pretty quick [Applause] and then just tripped up looked like he was tripped up but then as he's down he catches one out in andrei's defense i don't know he was on his way down or am i being too lean in here no i think he's been leaning he was down and he hit him when he was down and i think that second shot was worse than the first one i think this shot right here when he was down was a cleaner shot for the one that put him down but he made contact and i'll say this when i saw it live i thought he had time to see that captain doctor was [Applause] [Applause] steve willis has reason to take a point away to hold up the fight or disqualify it i mean in real time [Applause] round two in real time i thought andre and correctly if you disagree fellas i had time to see wait this guy is [Applause] good body shot there by andre as he gets right back to work here a lot to absorb there in the first round and walter kaufman is just looking to survive and see the skill level for andre they've got to jump straight up the middle and slip out of danger he is smooth and he is fluid with his hand is a good yeah that's exactly the takes his time has good vision i know ray you love that you can see a guy who's totally getting the computer read out of his opponent he just finished getting the knock down moving and giving angles and using the ring that's a smart thing by average part because he knows that tatadanko just got dropped he's going to want to get it back to second round [Applause] andre measuring his man lands a body shot and slips through again he on paper is the toilet man but in real life he is not he's looking up at kelton i can't believe how big he is actually michael buffer was the first one to notice that he told me he saw him in the back he took a picture with himself wait a minute how tall is he's taller than me what i see here [Applause] [Applause] throws straight up the middle with his left hand [ __ ] i think that's a little success there with the right hand you know what i'm noticing it right now is that andre just knocked him down in the last round he had a good round but he's only moving this round he must be feeling his heavy hands by uh [Music] [Applause] he's scary he's big he's tall he has a serious poker face on him he's stalking down his opponent with left flick though by contacting the only points that lands is [Applause] not the most active fighter and we're going to go back to round one again [Music] and let's let's watch it again in slow motion and see did he have time did demetrius andrade have time to know all right my opponent has been tripped up he's going down did he have time to that for that to register or ray leonard as you said was that fighter down now let's watch it in real time and see what you think watching it again [Applause] and it's just the instincts of it you see a guy go down boom at the knee and then bang half second later but i'm thinking his brain as sergio you mentioned with all of his experience he had time to register that man's down and not only that when the club was down but in the streets it's okay in the water in the street look if this was a cage should be okay there's no cage here we have three scheduled for 12. trying to be fair as andre comes out fighting orthodox now spins around the glove was clearly down so that's how you know plus he had time to register we're getting deep into the weeds here but he had time to register as he tripped over him saw him going down you know what's happening just because that the fighter must feel something like he knows that tobacco has some heavy hands and he just wants to get him out of there he must be feeling but you know one thing about it he's never faced anyone the speed and skills of andre no not not possible [Applause] talking about a decorated amateur yes world champion in 2007 over 200 amateur bouts you see andre outlanding through two rounds a wide margin faster hands he goes back to southpaw we saw earlier in the night kit galahad in our opening about here the last of the first of the last four fights of our main events here really go back and forth from right-handed to left-handed andrei i don't think does that as often but he's able to do it here [Applause] right right here that's for sure do you think so yes because look after the knockdown you would think that he would want to start fast again this is his big his big debut on the big stage this is where he wanted his entire career [Applause] [Applause] a little bit of success [Applause] all i'm saying is andre is in control that's that's that's easily seen but he must be feeling those heavy hands from constant gospel [Applause] [Music] [Applause] you're supposed to be able to take a step to referee andre back to work now firing back hands yes what a beautiful shot by andre walters retires man up which he doesn't have the experience to know that i'm a little surprised to keep going and he's gonna survive i didn't expect him to survive [Applause] this was a vicious shot from her from a punch that kantadako didn't see he got an angle on it right on the jaw those are the worst punches to get hit in boxing that's a sensational shot and he composed himself and got back up and that was the rest the reason i said i was surprised was steve willis has been pretty active right in this whole fight and he's been on top of things even telling andre to focus at the very start when he said hey come toward me [Applause] did not take a step toward the referee he did not and normally if that happens if he wanders and drifts then you end it survived that round i have no idea he was out that just shows you how good a shape he is and how much valley he has round four halton doppler rocked we thought it was over it was every reason to be over but he refused to susmit and that would have been the perfect ending for andre he needs a big knockout wins i thought to get the attention and that would have been a perfect way to end it andre needs a mandate from the fans from promoters to fight the other top middleweights danny jacobs fights next week canelo alvarez just signed with the zone that's an eleven fight deal you figure at sunshine [Applause] but he has to again create that mandate where he cannot be avoided any longer he needs to create that and it would that definitely would have been a buzz with that knockout that was a vicious shot but better to watch and he's surviving right here in the mix [Applause] normally a guy with that much power can't take power shots for some reason counting down has a massive grounded chin hard body shot by andrade messes him with a jab and then a big wide left hand visible to your point so sure this is getting more exciting see the thing about power punches they're used to being the bullies they're used to knocking out everything in sight they're not the ones getting dropped so he hunts him backwards proving that he has heart and he has the power he has everything going for him but except he's under control andre has got to be careful by the way he just steps in and you don't want to run into one of those right hand oh [Applause] staggered something sharp hey not much more bobby okay you got to get it together get it together shoulders like what else do i need to do to knock this guy out there is no three knockdown rule here and oh steve willis [Applause] he's been able to hit him clearly in the head wait for another shot pause to the body looking to set his man up he only has now 18 seconds left in this round he has [Music] [Applause] recovers quickly head and body attack from android look at those down [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] here we go again a beautiful executed punch [Music] it's the same punches and look at andre go back again he got grazed he didn't it wasn't with the same force but they they traded shots andre went back on his heels was able to right himself go to the chest okay [Music] i'll tell you what that's being outclassed but he's definitely not being outfilled in this game over there over there first fight outside of africa [Applause] with his can cognition respond to some questions from the ringside position and what should we do here because if the man is concussed knocked down three times you you've got more than enough reason to stop it right now and obviously he's been hurt he's been dropped three times but he's gotten back up and composed himself and came back with his own combinations that's what i mean willis realized okay why don't i get someone who's better uh equipped and trained to do an assessment and i i think that was a good move not only that guys but uh he's been down three times already so pretty much now he needs a knockout to win and in reality he's very good at knockout versus android you know no i don't think so but he's throwing some meaningful shots the other way to the points you were making earlier sergio as i often say at some point they're not going to say soldier you were right it's a tradition i argue with sergio and then fifth round here scheduled for 12. it's been exciting andre is looking for that same time left-handed steps back and times that shot and catches him but casadoco's up to his uh he's up to that punch already but with three knockouts i mean you would think that he needs to knock out the win and just credit and apart from some downfall i'm really impressed by by his [Applause] [Music] [Applause] and yet he absorbed it fairly well after four rounds down eight points in reality he can't win a decision anymore he needs a knockout to win i know you're right sergio that it would have been exciting or you know one shot knockout would have been exhilarating but now we get to see more stories you know get this real talent at middleweight up and down and look he is andre is ranked in the top 10 ring magazine ratings the espn ratings by objective observers he is one of the top 10 middleweights in the world and it's only his second fight at 160 pounds there's a big middleweight i can tell you that already he was a huge junior middleweight and he's a big middleweight now you know it's the same punch that uh andres is getting away with east town he's a counterpart i'm just trying he's trying to lean back and trying to catch that that left hand again that straight left hand over constant doctor's right hand it's a timed punch that a sci-fi uh doing from that angle final 30 seconds of the fifth round we've seen a lot of action in this fight three knock downs i'd still i still want to see that that third knock down i must have been blocked and i saw him go down i know if he tripped or he went down you know what andre has a knock on him that he's not an exciting fighter well that's going to change tonight absolutely [Music] [Applause] [Music] why does this guy look like he's getting stronger i love these body shots pretty pretty low but that one borderline that's the one the last two actually you know steve willis is wincing but steve you know when isn't he winston steve can you keep him up good steve's in the fight all right steve don't [Applause] [Music] [Applause] out of namibia again 10 days notice he's had every reason just to call it a night but it's a shot for him too at a world title belt if not world championship but there's a lot at stake if he could somehow pull off a massive upset he fights on despite as you mentioned sergio he is back by a staggering number of points i like you know like about walters the fact that he has poker face he gets knocked down yeah you can't tell he's hurt or what did they say in the corner too i thought i heard paul andre i think this guy's got it stronger yeah that could be the case stop [Applause] and we definitely know that content documents came to win a world title credit to him he keeps rising up every time he goes down i mean i don't know how he got up from from the first knockout the second one knockdown was just as brutal he's amazing amazing resilience [Applause] and that's where righty fights southpaw again he will switch back and forth and he's got power with both hands and again a full-sized 160 pounder here but fighting against the man who it is is built like a light heavyweight goodbye shot by andre you know the walter closer he doesn't use his jab as long as those he's just trying to arms him in half now i know he's he's hit him with an oxygen and sergio i guess he looked over at you right he's what do i have to do i guess that's it like try something different he shrugged his shoulders looked at me and said what do i gotta do i'm doing everything i can i'm throwing everything plus the kitchen sink and this man just went straight down well this is an exciting episode main event for a title belt again had to be disappointing when he didn't get billy joe saunders but now he comes in trying to make the best of it no no no [Music] [Applause] and ready to go final minute of round six scheduled for 12. [Applause] that straight jab and you see straight shots and he goes wide as well this is just a good arsenal he's trying to counter him again with the same shot that he dropped it earlier [Applause] good movement by andre but not quite on the run looking to get angles measuring he's landed a lot of body shots in this round well with this movement no no no that wasn't that was a trick okay yeah on his own yeah just went down hopefully he didn't reach the feet okay watch your feet yeah you get stepped on usually that happens when you get them stocks on a southpaw fighter [Applause] spins around recovering from that shot [Applause] [Music] it has been spirited so far can andrade close the show take another look here you would think after the kid galahad torah toca con clary fight i'd be used to this but there it is on his foot trying his foot and stayed there [Music] he's doing that every round he's doing all of the above [Music] all right how do you feel good all right good his body's hard push him push him push him a little [Music] it is paul andre demetrius's father in the corner for him as demetrius andre comes out round seven and back in the conventional stance fighting right-handed orthodox and flashes out decent left jab one thing i want to bring up about uh android is that uh he's showing a lot of patience for a [Applause] [Music] [Applause] them out and sometimes hunt yourself out and get mentally distressed those are hard body shots right above us and i tell you what that he is doing it beautifully now going to the bottom he has power his long arms but he doesn't have the the right level of experience [Applause] no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no never want that's for sure a lot of determination and staying on in this fight and again hurt badly hurt several times i didn't think he would survive those punches demetrious andrade was standing on the ropes hands aloft to a cheering boston crowd he's from providence and he's got their home fans here and he thought this fight was over you thought this fight was over yes only [Applause] there's belts out there but you've got to be pretty good to fight for one to win one and then you get a little more leverage in the marketplace now andre can't fall asleep at the reel because of the power of walt and look he's got this after all beautiful no that wasn't he stepped back that's a southpaw angle right there he stepped back and came back with three punch combination beautiful long race part [Applause] don't forget again we're in the final minute of this round but in the opening minute he threw out five or six hard body shots that all connected so he's he's got points in the back in this round alone at this point now you would never thought but uh walter is down he's fresh clear clear exactly if that press clear boo-boo taking a walk look at looking here for nothing but concentrating even though he's behind so much but he came for one credit to him but he's just being out clapped by [Applause] i thought we might see a jersey joe walk out there for a second maybe andre has that in his back pocket i was telling you about he steps back comes back with a three-punch combination missed that last overhand left but he got the the point just across he's gonna counter every time he comes don't make him brave [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] all right now start turning them can we have our right hooks in there you know i get the sense the challenge you heard a few things there in the corner it's to keep their man focused engaged and sharp because he's done everything and yet there's the other guy standing in front of you that's what i said earlier it could be discouraging i don't care how many times uh over you became a champion it's discouraging to knock a guy down that brutally and for him to keep getting up every single time it's like frankenstein he keeps coming at you he's a monster he is the executioner but the other guys had the masks we have a great chair no question about that brian kennedy sugar ray leonard and sergio mora here ringside this is our main event an outstanding night of boxing already katie taylor with the win tevin farmer with an outstanding performance kick galahad with a classy win as well earlier in the night you know i got to be honest guys i was a little leery and questionable about his record his power comes to back his power i question all of that because he's he's only fought out of namibia once but his heart is there's no doubt in his heart and again fighting a as we mentioned several times in this broadcast a supremely skilled guy hey you know what it does andre is it right he's not one of the top stars in the sport yet but he is not only an outstanding boxer but he can land hard shots as well and yet here's papadopoulos being in here with him at this point fighting him hard yeah here's the three work it out work it out hands are free free step back i got it i got it he's going to be a better fighter walter will be a better fighter after this [Applause] yup to get up three knockdowns especially the second knockdown where he was staggered taking a walk down the ropes andre trying something a little different here he's not really down to the sustained body attack that he did in round seven but i understand your concentration it's difficult to keep it like in fifth or sixth gear [Applause] okay okay okay okay touch the canvas [Applause] if he had gotten touched or clipped on the way out that would be a knockdown that's a little you know what's impressive this is the only second time walter has been playing six rounds he says a lot because he looks great they've both been focused and determined [Applause] way behind on points clearly and still looking for a big shot i mean if anything he does have a big shot he possesses that one punch knockout and he's looking for it he's pressuring him he's coming stalking like i said he's like frankenstein keeps coming back [Applause] [Music] [Applause] didn't take it off wanted to do just enough for walter caltenda is still there and still lurking what is that left wheelies must work more okay [Music] [Applause] all right let's couple jabs down to the style stairs then go right back to the right hook so you don't expect jab jab step right hook good path that jab stomach head on your stomach chest right hand in this area a couple of those jabs step forward right hook nice he won't see it coming stay sharp over it okay stay sharp [Music] [Applause] he has looked beautiful in this fight and another reason that andre really has to be impressive in these fights is if you are say canelo alvarez as we get into round nine ryan kenny sergio morris sugar ray leonard here if you are canelo alvarez and you're picking your spots and you're fighting big fights and then you have to have some cute busy fights in here you you need to be compelled to fight demetrius andre don't you you know there's always a risk reward and there's a big risk in fighting and boxing this guy you need to say hey at least there'll be a reward i'll fight this skilled fighter but if it's worth it if this guy's already a star if he's not a star why do i want to mess with this demetrius andre even though he he would he had long layoffs he had injuries he's still one of the most devoted fighters in boxing because he's a big strong southpaw he has experience and he's tough as he obviously is showing tonight i mean canelo alvarez fought off to trout his hands workout and then he went after floyd mayweather and demanded floyd mayweather and got him even while he was a little young and floyd was you know not old enough to be deteriorated [Applause] he tried to avoid for a long time that's a good point right against a guy no wing situation so he will fight you but andre needs to create that mandate he needs to create the demand i'm impressed with andre because there's an activity i mean [Applause] beautiful combination here about andrew he's stepped up that's a sudden that's the south pass advantage right there he steps back in a four-punch combination two upstairs two downstairs and pick it out and ray you're right there's no way you'd be watching this guy thinking he's been off for a year no way no way ninth round here again scheduled for 12 which for the ibo belts at 160 pounds so it's a championship round and andre now made to go deep into the night it is deep into the night isn't it ball game's been over for a while punches up no ball game at fenway park tonight though dodgers versus boston dodgers win in the national league championship series uh boston here is of course you know buzzing with the red sox hosting the world series here on tuesday i know the promoters here already heard were saying i'm so glad to see the red sox polish off houston and not have to come back here the same night got a good crowd here tonight and settling in here in the main event android taking off this one looks like he's just trying to stay at ease and forgot the show he's not really throwing that many punches but then again concentrate many punches [Applause] [Applause] [Music] he has stayed composed mentally and physically andre just has to thursday stay focused he's done everything he's had to do but the man is still in front of him both these fighters took that round off i don't know like uh didn't try to pressure and pursue him more but he took that round off too [Music] [Applause] main event here in boston there are the middleweight titleists canelo alvarez ryota morata also canelo alvarez jamal charlotte again there's always belts but look canelo alvarez canelo beating triple g and i thought he actually did beat him and now box him and won that fight champion of the world [Music] [Music] there could be a demand for a third fight against the clear for a big finale right man canelo yeah [Music] alvarez will be at madison square garden and rocky fielding and he's getting right back into it only a few months later and then andre with a win here with more impressive work will be in play for all these fights but again the risk reward factor will play into it do you need to play with this guy if you don't have to no you don't these are dangerous opponents these last minute replacements i'm telling you they're going to worse because you don't [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] as opposed to this guy who is you know a dangerous puncher from long range i've been there before it's the worst last minute replacements are just as dangerous as the punch you don't see with this thing i haven't had those but uh you know [Applause] don't look to me you called the shots [Applause] it's not easy being on top right we understand that okay it's like you're training for canelo over and then you get you're injured you're still gonna fight okay guys wait you're losing this round it takes two of us round ten championship rounds here again this for a vacant wbo middleweight title billy joe sanders who you mentioned fans of drug test was not licensed they wanted the event to go on and that's always tricky like i i've been at events where you know fighters have failed the drug test and the opponent the guy who didn't fail test says look i'm trained for this fight i want this fight to go on maybe i'll just fight him anyway which defeats the purpose of the drug test especially a guy failing it but you you you've trained already and you need to take that pay down [Applause] he came to this country first time in this country and of course he wants to become a middleweight champion but he came with a heavy heart i mean i know that he's messing up his strength now i mean his mother died a week before he got the call to get this fight so that just has to give him that that extra edge to get up no matter what and try to win this title giving him a hyper focus and determination climbing off the deck three times in this fight by the way we can update that graphic rob brandt just dethroned rio from morocco moments ago that's a wba regular belt so wait so canelo so he's just dragging it out here he has two rounds left and for all the heart and spirit that he has shown if he does want to actually get a victory he's going to have to do something different something very dramatic something as a knockout something inspiring that he probably can't do but he does have the power [Applause] even right there we just saw a few seconds ago like there's a chance for a long [Applause] distance watch [Applause] [Applause] he's been in range more in the last 20 seconds than i think he's been all night his eyes are like flashlights okay well he realizes that he's in with the guy that's not going to go anywhere just showed tremendous heart he is not going anywhere he did everything he can to stop this man he kept getting up [Applause] andre has been slipping that punch like uh left handed [Applause] he's doing the right thing by the way i think we're definitely going to see council back right there maybe with another rising middleweight or top contender because he proves he's [Applause] [Music] no you're absolutely right like if on an undercard somewhere would you want to see counten dhaka yeah yeah but you know maybe not a main event but to see him somewhere not against me you're sure no i think he's six foot seven now i can't fight that guy [Applause] [Applause] with his resilience his heart his courage bravery it really isn't impressive and i refuse to even enter into you know is this lackluster now because it was still an exhilarating performance by andre he he has been unable to put him away completely and maybe captain doppler finishes on his feet but he still showed everything you want to see it's not it's not andre's part that he did he couldn't stop this guy he did everything he could [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] hey i want to take a look back now i still haven't seen the third knockdown so here you go while we have time it's round four beautiful beautiful oh oh my goodness that was worth seeing and he got back in a beautiful shot just got back up that's that's the southpaw of bread and butter right there stepping back real quick i was blocked like an eclipse ray i didn't [Music] he did [Applause] [Music] [Applause] is remarkable demetrius andrei gametime putting out an outstanding performance he has taken his foot off the gas a little bit though since the seventh round when he had an impressive body attack they haven't seen that since [Applause] very impressive performance [Applause] he's doing everything right he's won every single round again well i mentioned the seventh round look at these shots he was going body and head doing everything doppler is able to absorb it andrew is throwing combinations in the 12th round yep [Applause] keeps getting up he is not going nowhere andre will win in a shutout and like an incredibly wide margin and you're right he will wake up in the middle of night and he [Applause] a lot of times [Applause] he's putting everything on these [Applause] shots this was not uh a bad performance by audrey but he did everything he had to do to take this guy out normally would say he's not an exciting fighter he's definitely an exciting fighter in this fight matada did everything he had to do wait not only that i mean the three knockdowns and by the way knocked down when he was first down when he was on one knee by the way that didn't feel good either and yet the other two shots were crushed that dropped him eyes rolling back in his head and yet he is here and now in the final minute of the final round deep into the night here in boston i mean you can capitalize on this eight plus [Applause] uh andre with a knockout obviously the tough run which is very difficult to do but it wasn't a plus performance in my book he did everything he had to do right now gets a very tough opponent he's against a guy who has [Music] and he's still trying to look for the knockout [Applause] did come here to boston and fought beautifully in the main event look around brian everyone is standing up tracking not only because of heart but because of a performance by demetrius andre this was a great performance on his part [Music] [Applause] andre there with promoter eddie hearn now for the second time in the night he gets to stand on the ropes and say i won he thought he was winning earlier in the night i thought he had his man out in the third round and very nearly did great performance from both men boat fighters [Music] 10 days notice knocked down three times and i mean knocked down stiff as well climbing off the canvas answered the call as best he could to steve willis and didn't give steve willis an excuse to stop it either because willis you can see he's out you see the sturdy look but the referee steve willis if he had a chance he would have stopped it now there was the the shot that you know borderline or just called what it is it's a flat out illegals and there could have been a dq there you don't want to see that but i tell you what if captain dog had just stayed down there you'd really have an interesting decision wouldn't you because that's an illegal shot i still can't believe how he got with different angles different shots here actually raised andre [Applause] that's a double knockdown i didn't even realize he put the gloves down and he actually got hit steve willis didn't realize that wow that was a knockdown i saw it happen live but i wasn't sure and by then i was looking at the other fallen fighter who clearly got drilled how exciting would that have been on andre um [Music] [Applause] exciting main event as it turns out here for the fans that uh awake the world series take a look at the punches we really haven't talked much about the punch stats has not been necessary but uh landing triple the the shots we supported the compubox did andrade and you see the even the jabs just not even close just remarkable that it did in fact go the distance to see the power punches let's get the official decision and michael buffer ladies and gentlemen after 12 rounds we go to the scorecards clinton feldman scores it 120 to 104 ramon sodon 119 to 105. marcus mcdonald 120-104 all three scores to the winner by unanimous decision from providence rhode island now a three-time world champion and the new undefeated wbo liverweight champion of the wolf demetrius [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] outstanding performance by andre who goes 26-0 and wins a vacant wbo belt with
