introducing to you first fighting out of the blue Corner he's wearing the pink and blue his a ficial weight of [Music] [Applause] 169.254 is representing the California Bay Area introducing Anthony the pretty boy tayor there are those Bo and his opponent across the ring fighting out of the Red Corner he is wearing the golden black he a ficial weight of [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] 168.75 ksir fighting right now cuz this crowd is unbelievable it's electric I'm telling you I've never seen anything like this coach I want you to obey my commands at all times most importantly protect yourself at all times just as a reminder if I say stop you stop whatever you're doing and listen for my commands punch is here and upper good punch is here and upper good irresistable the immovable object had to be said boxer versus brawler King Kenny will try and stay behind his ja dab and circle away whereas Anthony Taylor has that seek and destroy mission well it's clear what the game sh or game plan should be for Anthony Taylor he's got to get as close as he can King Kenny said I'll make this a fight if he wants to I think Anthony Taylor wants to make this a fight I think it's the only way that he can win first round look at the focus stop stop stop well they're seeking destroy interesting yes so Kenny's got to get out of this Onslaught early he'd be wise just to play a little defense here man absolutely I mean Anthony ran at him like a freight train I thought he was going to come out with a flying knee we have fans literally watching all over the world if you don't know what they're saying here in the arena it's Kenny as loud as they can right hand from Taylor he likes that dirty boxing likes to put his forehead right on your chest and bang away in your rib cage you know Anthony Taylor was making fun of King Kenny's hair all week what's the verdict Ms I think we have no trim no trim Kenny which which is good luck for himar Kenny him go Kenny him go Kenny see see there's the corner of the pretty boy looking on man I I like the fact that you've made some of these fights five and six rounders instead of three cuz you can really start to see who the better Fighters are well these are title fights and this is for the misfit boxing light heavyweight championship has to be five rounds there you go a minimum Anthony Taylor was able to basically confuse Sal poppy in his fight poppy just couldn't figure him out and it may take Kenny a little while to do so too oh well Taylor said he doesn't mind being the shorter fighter and sometimes when you're a really tall fighter and you have to fight somebody shorter than you that can take a little while to really get the distance that you need yes this fight the key is definitely distance Anthony Taylor closing it well getting in there early backing up and throwing that overhand right hoping it'll hit but Kenny doesn't seem too phased so far more of a feeling out around this one I'm surprised Kenny hasn't gotten behind that jab he's so good at it I think Anthony's done everything to take that jab away from him that's exactly what I was going to say he hasn't allowed him to but as we've seen in the fights previous guys start to slow down so gam to your point if Kenny can just get out of this first round maybe he can establish that moving forward Kenny does have one of the best Jabs on misfit's boxing how much have you've been here obviously you started this entire operation how much better have both of these guys gotten in your mind significantly significantly Anthony has a team that tries to implement a game plan now and he really really sticks to it and Kenny just unbelievable te like I said technically probably the most [Applause] Improvement [Applause] you [Applause] there's the aerial view here the AO arena in Manchester packed to the gills sold out within minutes when tickets were available the hottest ticket in a while check us out for boxing anywhere round two that's absolutely right here we go for round two this is for the light heavyweight championship in Misfits still waiting for wake up that left hand of Taylor might have gotten his [Applause] attention lot of dty boxing this one nothing clean about it so far it really isn't Kenny's really starting to hold Taylor a lot so I think Taylor's strategy and the fact that he's kind of bum rushing him at the beginning of every round is really starting to make Kenny uncomfortable King Kenny known of course as part of the beta Squad what is it about that unit that's gotten so much publicity so much love I mean they are one of the most popular YouTube groups in the world and certainly in the UK and fan base is rallying behind them you know it's one of their own all of them are here so you're just going to get a crazy support system for Kenny which at lacks but I think at thrives off the booing as well he loves to play the villain was that part of the strategy when you started Misfits was to cuz you have half of your vents in the United States another over here in the UK to really bring fighters from everywhere to Misfit you know I know a heal when I see one I know when someone's going to play that role well and certainly at does it very well I mean yesterday he was at the uh weigh-ins talking about uh not talking nice things about Manchester I'm surprised he didn't put down their football team well it's the first weigh in gz I've ever seen that needed a cage so you know you got your heel baby faces yeah I was going to say you talk about a heel Dylan danis is the the epitome of a heel he has really gotten under Logan Paul's skin and I honestly don't know what's going to happen when that Bell Rings tonight in the co-main event it's honestly it's I think the pent up aggression from Logan does he let that get to him does that affect the fight how does it affect the fight because normally you want to stay composed and relaxed and not let the emotions get to you but how do you not after all this crazy buildup and expenses are always something you have to watch I'm guessing security is one of your major expenses for this event yes security has been upped by three times here there's the beta Squad watching on waiting for King KY to get him excited about something say what you want about crossover influence or whatever you want to call it but they roll together where every one of them is fighting the whole group is there good right hand from Taylor yeah Kenny holding a lot he's still just trying to figure this Juggernaut out I think if you start using his movements and his footwork instead of trying to hold that would not only wear Taylor down but it would allow him more space would like to see some more clean cut action here I'm not going to lie I don't to that's the problem [Music] sometimes [Applause] there's someone working on the inside like now [ __ ] bullying back not you got to maneuver your arms and Bully him don't let someone bully you that like that he ain't [ __ ] and I keep telling you put him on the back foot he can't fight on the back foot do you understand me yeah if I put him on the back foot I can't I can't I go on the back on the FR almost 10 [Applause] seconds if you weren't able to hear into the corner of King Kenny their coach they were giving him the riot act saying you've got to push this guy back you can't be scared you can't hold you got to bully him but then when he went back he said but he's holding there's nothing I can do king Kenny is very very frustrated and his corner is frustrated with him yes daily very very passionate one of the best coaches in this space will there be any significant adjustments here let's remember Misfits has only been around for a very short time as you start to sign more Fighters and you have your what I call the ogs they're going to continue to get better but a lot of them are so new to boxing they have to learn a lot of times on the Fly that was a low blow and Anthony Taylor being given time to recover King Kenny shagen his head like man I didn't do nothing well our last fight was between M mate Nate and werson nunz and King Kenny has beaten both of those Fighters so he wants to add Anthony Taylor to his resume although he just a shot on the ear you know one of the things I'm noticing is not just the holding that Taylor's doing he has a much much much bigger Advantage when it comes to his quickness yes King Kenny has the advantage of knowing that Anthony Taylor is going to have to bull rush him so you catch him coming right in right there and you catch him going out unfortunately Kenny's just letting him bulldoze in without paying a price if he can back up Ms as Taylor's coming in and kind of catch him over the top he could get a knockout that way it has to be perfectly timed but we've seen it many many times there you go Conor McGregor Jose Aldo perfect example that's what Kenny needs is to have that counter ready yeah he's got he's got a charge admission to get inside right now there's nothing being paid by Taylor Anthony has discovered a rather boring strategy but it is effective and it's winning him fight but you want both you want strategy and action I do I really do have to have a word with him after this you know speaking of Conor McGregor and celebrities celebrities are really into this thing tonight oh yes I'm sure you had a lot of ticket requests yes I believe uh there were some uh some guys from Twilights that I thought you might be excited about Gish not so much me oh my daughters would love anything Twilight related trust me and what I've been excited about Ms you know I get to call all the big boxing events on Doone but when you look at the crowd here is much younger and much more diverse especially the male to female ratio than you see at most boxing events oh yes it's you've got all walks of life here you've got people from all different countries you've got the Brazilians there was Thai fans for my mate Nate obviously lots of people have traveled far and wide to get here and let's be honest when you're promoting a boxing event I live in near Los Angeles it was an 11h hour flight everybody's talking about no matter where you come from all right we're about to check in with Olivia as we wind down round number [Applause] three right I'm here with Dean the great who looks ready Dean how you feeling feeling good as always you dig what I'm saying I'm ready to put it on for y'all now after I steal the show tonight they going to have to change change Manchester to Dean Chester you dig Dean Chester I quite like that now you've already fought W you've already beaten W what did you learn about yourself and him in that fight well I learned he's still a [ __ ] um and I learned a lot from that camp you I made a lot of mistakes you dig what I'm saying but I got a better team better Camp I'm a better me now you dig what I'm saying so it's going to be a completely different Dean tonight I just want to apologize for the language use how much do you think you've improved how much do you think or what what's going to happen in this fight this fight I'm going to go in there I'm going to hit him with a two-piece he going to be sleep face down ass up you dig I'm going have to get him a mattress firm sponsor now this was one of the best fights we've ever had at here at Misfits are we expecting more of the same are you guys going to entertain us like you did the first time you already know I'm an Entertainer that's what we here for you dig what I'm saying here to entertain if you ain't here to entertain and go go fight godamn on these little promotions for for your city you dig but this we're Entertainer we're here to entertain the fans shout out to everybody that came out love y'all you dig I'm going put it on for y'all Dean good luck tonight thank you thank you Olivia we continue on here live from Dean Chester England Ken versus Taylor if people haven't seen the first Dean the grey Wally Shar fight you missed a banger these two guys don't like each other and they are ready to go today we just missed a nice three-piece combo there from anony I think he's shifting strategies well he needs to well I I disagree I mean to me Taylor's won every round are you said Kenny needs to change no I think Taylor needs to if he wants to have MS happy and really show the judges not only can he get in a dirty box but he can also Land from the outside Todd I'm a man of the people we need to keep them entertained here damn right well hey I think anon's doing his part when you got a 10-in reach disadvantage hey that might be Karma trying to take advantage of Taylor slipping and then Kenny [Music] slip hey you can't blame the little guy for trying to get inside bang away what do you want him to do don't know the strategy I'm saying is fine but this isn't just regular boxing this is about entertainment and making the people want to come back and that is not the right strategy for that and that's one of the issues with having more rounds more time to settle you take your time good right hand for Taylor on the way in up leg pick up thece stop keep that momentum whoa taking a point away from King Kenny for holding maam see it's not Taylor's fault K Kenny's cheating man cut the guy some I know he's the heel but jeez either way King Kenny has got to do something different and quick yes and Dy has been screaming at him in the corner passionately really knows he's got to make some changes I feel like he's in his head right now cuz every time he gets yelled at he comes back with but he's holding me but he's holding me you got to be stronger than that you got to be better than that he's boing in a frustrated Manner and he's got to overcome that if he wants to win this fight he's got to be first like when they're at at distance right here King Kenny should be leading this charge right now right now throw a jab step in instead he waits for Taylor to bull rush him and then he holds and then Taylor knows that nothing's going to come back at him to your point we go but it is such an awkward style to deal with a season professional wouldn't have much trouble with Anthony Taylor but King Kenny is only had six fights in his life they do say Styles make fights so I think the urgency has to kick in at this point the Saudi pro league is coming your way here on Doone every Friday and Saturday I think you recognize the guy on the right there Cristiano Ronaldo you can see him live from Saud here on D after he signed that big deal I wonder how he pay the bills you think he can afford those I don't even think he collects the bills the companies just figure we'll pay it ourselves yeah there is the man and for every baby face ladies and gentlemen you must have a heal say what you want about Dylan danis but the man is in the building and he has promoted this fight to the ends of the Earth but now the all the the talk is going to stop tonight because he has to step in against Logan Paul a very agitated and angry Logan Paul oh here goes Taylor again was that a knockdown let say no a push slipping around like it's an ice skating rink here but Kenny now Kenny showing some light it's got to click now he's starting to let his hands go a little bit he's got to get angry he's got to get mad yes he's having trouble knowing how far to Circle his feet around when Anthony storms in oh tayor on the run now here's what I don't want I don't want Taylor to think he has to fight one and then not fight for the fifth round stay [Applause] engaged again this is for the light heavyweight championship and I feel like we're beating a dead horse but Kenny simply will not change his strategy he will not move he will not back up and thus he's Landing nothing he's got to Circle his feet around and anticipate Anthony's entrance a little bit more calculated manner and he's got to he's got to throw that punch in and time it the accuracy is missing he's frustrated but he did try at the beginning of the round so he's just got to keep that energy and keep in mind he was deducted a point for holding as well so he needs and if not just a knockdown he probably needs a knock out to win this fight I I agree with you I don't think there's any way right now he wins this fight without a knockout in the final 90 seconds well hey two of his four wins have come by KO 50% so he's done it four and now with the title on the line he has to do it again Anthony Taylor is a tough man to knock out you know many predicted that Kenny would win this on decision are you are you surprised at what you've seen you know what can you you you never know what you're going to get but I think we were all hoping for that technical improvement from Kenny to be implemented in this fight and Taylor just hasn't allowed him to show it and that is a really good good uh thing that a boxer can do especially one with not a ton of of History I I guess I should say yeah look Anthony Taylor like I said he's got a strategy and it's working so to his credit he's doing what he needs to do to get the win bouncing on his toes Kenny comes in with his gloves up by his ears he's got to roll the dice Jal Charlo would not do it against Canelo he just simply wouldn't try and win it at the end when he knew what he had to do let's see if Kenny was willing to go out on his shield here that's a great analogy sometimes Fighters just either a get tired or they just get to a point where they say I can't beat this guy and I wonder if Kenny's at that point there's a swing in a Miss with 10 seconds to go can we see a miracle from King Kenny the crowd would love it he's got to take those chances he has to wasn't his night Anthony Taylor to his credit completely discombobulated King Kenny Taylor just did something that's very very difficult to do he made this crowd quiet they put him back in their seats they were electric during the ring announcements for the two guys and then very quickly Anthony Taylor said to the crowd listen sit down I'm not going to allow you to get behind your fighter and it worked for five rounds oh he's put them to sleep he's supposed to put Ken to sleep you are incredible you really really are honesty I love it and this is what it's all about GD too I mean mans brings up a good point this is about entertainment as much as it is about real boxing and you got to bring both let's take a look at some of the highlights here and this is how it all started is Anthony Taylor just rushing King Kenny and that would be how he would start every single round not allowing Kenny to have any space and then he would move great head move of Ms and I really thought Anthony Taylor dictated the pace for the entire fight he has he's really he's really controlled the Pace in the ring frustrated Kenny throughout Kenny just hasn't had an answer for Anthony's strategy yet and let's see I know dy's going to be talking to him now with a lot of urgency and passion at one point King Kenny Grisham got deducted a point because he got to the point in the fight where he was doing the holding not not Taylor well we've got some Top Class MMA action coming your way from the pfl later this year Anthony Taylor of course former MMA fighter pfl World Champ Championship takes place November 24th and then the pfl Europe Championship takes
