two losses with 10 big wins coming by way up knockout introducing ferocious George [Music] Kos please [Music] instructions now let's get so here we go take lightweight World Championship pace could be a major factor in this fight T Pace footwork positioning absolutely all those things test I'm curious to see what Anton has instilled in cmosis and what approach he's going to take in this fight that's the new trainer who says I have the answers for lenko teaching the Russian style he says he's studying for years he has the answers but at 30 years old can cambos convert to that starting off I see some change already ready and cambos is in his game and the way he's approaching the Southpaw he's trying to get that outside position but I like the jouin battle right there and the body attack right away able to position that right hand to the body of lomachenko cambos is going to have to find his offense create his offense but he's going to have to push back lomachenko that's how you beat lomachenko you have to push him back you have to get him to disengage pull back in the line of fire you can follow him out you can land shots and you can win rounds that way as is always the case with lenko through this lightweight run he's had you notice the size differential as kosis has a 2 and2 in reach Advantage 2 in taller but then the girth with the rehydration as well as lenko by all accounts is a more natural featherweight who just had the skill and the resume that had a built to the challenge of 135 ibf and that is the vacant belt P are fighting for Demands a day of a secondary weighin but because this fight is being fought this fight card started Sunday morning so that it could air here prime time in the United States they allowed the second weighin the day of weighin to take place in Perth Australia on Saturday evening at 9 p.m. as it is now 12:30 in the afternoon Sunday in Perth for this fight I like the pace at which lomachenko is is fighting right now Tess he's not it's not too slow and it's not too fast it's in between like a medium stake that's perfect right now he's downloading information but he's still applying pressure marching forward lomachenko does better work when he's coming forward then he is going backwards he has exactly what he has Kos is exactly where he needs him right now three- punch combination from lomachenko as you have noted many times through the years when we call his fights the pressure is applied simply with the footwork and you saw it there in the lead up to that combination he landed well it's not just footwork Tess it's a lot of indirect movements you know you see him do pre- slips when he slipping to the stuff angles changing the angles up the foot faints the level changes and he gets in position and you'll see him pull every now and then he'll pull back in range just being deceptive with his offense and he'll catch you with that left hand and he comes in with a straight left hand behind that South Paul jab coming to the end of round number one lomachenko and kosis from Perth Western Australia in the leadup to this fight I ask Vil lomachenko at 36 years old is your footwork the key to the fight he says we'll see just how good my footwork is and Tess it's looking pretty good off the Jump it is indeed as was the defense from lomachenko Bernardo as cmosis was only three of 28 Just Landing 11% of his punches thrown in that first round Bernardo Asuna our Ace reporter there in person outstanding job of his coverage all week long leading to this championship event including covering the two staredowns the two faceoffs that each went over 3 minutes and these two fighters had to be separated or else they may still be there round number two s paa jab from lenko he's able to close that distance and send the left hand he followed him out that time you know cambos is he'll take that half a step back sometimes the full step back to get out of range but he's always looking for the counter that's the problem with koses you know his footwork he never moves left or moov right he moves straight back in the straight line and lenko just following him out right there he's a natural counter puncher but you heard Anton kadushin his trainer after that last round saying pressure pressure pressure and utilize the jab to come forward not seeing it right now you see the lon already from kosis with the double right hand he's rolling back to his old self already lomachenko has him thinking right now if you you get cambos is thinking you got him three punch combination that finish with the Right Hook from [Applause] lomachenko now you see cambos is trying to come forward now trying to start some some offense he's typically not that guy he's not creative off his front foot especially when he's facing a South ball test that's right but what he needs to do is pick up his jab a little bit more start placing those shots to the chest you see him right there he leads with a left hook down to the body trying to close off that exit the weak side exit for lomachenko that's towards the lead hand Tess I'm waiting what I'm waiting on is I'm waiting on that front footstep Shuffle I'm waiting on lomachenko to get around to that weak side of cambos that's that fancy footwork that you've seen that time and again create offense in the career of lomachenko but I've seen it less and less there's the right hand to the body from kosas and you see you see how exactly how lomachenko reacted from that body shot he did not like that body shot good timing right there from [Applause] [Music] [Applause] boses lomachenko with a flurry at the end of round number [Applause] two action from Perth Australia Joe tesor and Tim Bradley with the call Bernardo Asuna our ringside reporter that second round lomachenko had an 11-2 connect advantage including eight power [Applause] punches how how lenko is going to be able to close that distance is is he going to be doing it with just level changes you see the small little level changes that he does right there he's going to be able to explode good offense because again cambos is a natural counter puncher you know he's always looking to react to shots and to punches and that small a little level change you saw it right there just wait for that left hand to come straight down the middle he's setting it up right nowos is trying to come forward with that right hand lenko getting out of range there it is you saw the small level change right there and you saw the left hand come over the [Applause] top Bernardo what are you hearing out of the corner cambos Anton kadan wants him to slip duck under and then follow up with a counter right hook he doesn't want him to keep moving back Anton is a new addition to team cmosis he has gone through management changes he has gone through trainer changes this is not the same group that led him to Undisputed status there's an exchange on the inside as cambos tries to land the left hook at time lomachenko a lot a lot easier said than done the the beauty about lomachenko is is that he can operate at midrange still be defensive and still be in position to be able to land his offense a warning on that right hand and you can hear the reaction from the Australian [Applause] crowd it's like l puts so much mental pressure on you with all the indirect movements that he's does right here just to get himself in position in a right position to let his offense off such a great example of what you just said Timmy there was no punch thrown by lomachenko in that sequence yet you could feel the pressure and you could see the reaction from cambos and trying to deal with it difficult that's what makes L go those movements right there and I see LMA starting to get that weak side angle explain that to the Layman when you say that weak side angle so the weak side angle is is is away from the right hand getting around and you get around to the side now you're in a clear advantageous position to be able to land your offense and get away with shots nice body shot right there from cambes oh good exchange to close out the third look at this stuff croud in per a sellout at the RAC Arena to see if George cambos the Australian native can get back to World Championship status or vasil venko can plant yet another flag in his mountain of accomplishments round number four Joe tessent Tor Tim Bradley with you on the call and keep in mind Timmy we thought we were going to be calling this fight some years ago lomachenko had the fight with cmosis lined up for spring of 2022 but then you know what happened back at home with the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the decision that lomachenko made to serve his country he spent over 320 days away from the ring when he left it was Devin Haney who took advantage it was Devin Haney who got the fight with cambos took all four belts won the rematch and he was on top of the division the fight has happening at the right time Tess it's happening at the right time I respect lomachenko for doing what he did and pulling out the fight to protect this country I respect that cambos with a onew moments ago landed the right hand cambos can't get away from that level change left hand that come down the middle he can't again that in that time lenko came back with the one that swivel jab oh my goodness I'm I'm letting y know at Folks at home right now lenko has downloaded the information he knows what he's doing right now he's going to go for the KO tonight he's definitely going to go for the KO tonight and that is a different version of Leno if that comes to fruition than we have seen in recent fights then he has admitted to oh and there's a good combination up top as he is head hunting kosis excellent work from wenko here in round number four now what does cambos do what does he do from here Tess he's going to have to out because this beat down is going to continue round after round L's going to pick it up little by little so why not fight fire with fire at this point now you got to sell out because if you don't this is going to continue to happen you nailed it about 30 seconds before it materialized that lomachenko has downloaded the information and now has it because you can see it in the second half of this fourth round and you starting to see the frustration coming right now from oh koses he has no clue where those punches are coming from no even on that angle to the right as lomachenko sweeps around and lands the left [Applause] hand very strong round for [Applause] [Music] lomachenko shanko where he had a 21 to one connect advantage a 21 to1 connect Advantage which is something that comp box tracks in his career often and for those playing along at home you clearly have been tracking that as ESPN that live money line right now has lomachenko minus 2500 everybody's all over lenko with what they've seen in these first four rounds now Timmy I want to offer you this when you see a round 21 to1 of you're putting forth that level of offense and that level of defense well he has the number four plus minus rating in all of Championship level Fighters according to Cy box in the world of hit and don't get hit Tess and he does it while he's directly in front of you that's the difference that's the beauty about lomachenko he's not bagging up and he's not fighting on his back foot and moving away from reaction he's actually going towards his opponent and still being slippery like that and Elusive and still Landing his offense test you know in a very smart boxing mind said to me in the leadup to this fight is so much better when he starts early and his the aggressor early he didn't do that against tiimo he didn't do that against Haney he's doing it [Applause] tonight [Music] that's there's no way that cambos is is going to be able to time that movement there's the left hand again there's no way you know wrong game plan and he might have came here with the game plan to pressure but lomachenko is not allowing him to do that he has kosas right now spooked not sure what to do and Tess I don't care how much determination you have or will to have and toughness you have skill that's what dominates in this ring skill and sometimes when the skill are even that's when the will and determination comes forth the skill is not even in kosis and lenko lomachenko as close to his prime camosa says close to his prime there is a gap in Talent that's just a fact sends him off balance with that left hand right now what L's doing is a slow beating slow he's just slowly soften him up little by little round by round but if he invest in the body a little bit more he can stop campos's another head shot after midnight back on the east coast of the United States and a reminder that Sports center from La will be coming up at the conclusion of this world championship fight Linda and Stan will have everything for you I'm hoping they have a full analysis and breakdown with the ring announcer issue we had earlier tonight hopefully we don't have one at the end of this one and the way things are going with lomachenko it could be very clear and decisive round six of our championship fight lenko in complete control with a 73- 16 connect advantage to this point let's check in with Bernardo ringside not a very animated Anton kadan in the corner of George campos's but what he did say is I don't want you head hunting when he throws his left I want you to counter to the body and on the other side egas Kus says what about this fast start from basil lomachenko and I asked lomachenko earlier this week will we ever see nenko he smiled looks like we're seeing him tonight nenko was the nickname that he earns early in his career when world class fighter after fighter quit they couldn't continue against him which was a remarkable test but we haven't seen that fighter in a very long time in the lower weight classes where he was able to dominate and have the athletic advantage over those smaller Fighters as you go up in weight especially in a 135lb class and 140 Fighters become even more athletic and then you got to deal with the sides on top of that and the punching power of these Fighters ooh nice left hook right there beautiful change right there that's a nice left hook by koses I like that shot a lot see if he can strength some momentum together as he tries to place a right hand to the body came back with the left hook and lenko was just able to get underneath it but now you see a little bit of Confidence from the Aussie and where he's having success where is he's having success he's coming forward test not backwards he's coming forward he has to remember that come forward take more chances he's got to dig himself out of a hole there he goes to the body against lenko but double it double it upstairs go to the body come up with the head with the left hook ex send the right hand right down the middle where's the follow-ups one punch at a time is not going to do it maeno successful on the inside short left hand on the inside goes back to the head you see the accuracy of lomachenko absolutely beautiful accuracy Landing 52% of his power punches over 50% of power punches thrown that's an outrageous number in cop box [Applause] World round seven cambos is coming off his most spirited round to this point but he was still out landed [Applause] 19-7 superb percentage and accuracy Tim as you noted from M maeno you just saw the numbers there you know cambos is one of the biggest issues a part of his game okay there's a lot of them I'm not going to lie there's a lot of them you see him how he leans forward you know trying to inch close he's there to be hit with straight shots you see how his guards are low when he comes in he's here he's there to be hit with straight shots but also you see he goes steps out and he steps back in range steps out and step back in range he does that every single time nothing has changed he hasn't learned anything under the Heat and under the fighter what do we always Tell You Folks at home a fighter typically results back to who he is all that stuff he worked on the camp is now out the window Sports Center coming your way next round seven of our championship fight lenko trying to make more history comes with that sweeping rare hook and that is a slip that is not a knockdown but that pressure being applied by lomachenko he had success that last round with that left hook and he went to it again this time LMA made the adjust and got underneath it so now what George got to do if he wants to land that shot he needs to throw it towards L's shoulder throw it towards the shoulder in hopes that LMA dips into it there's a left hand to the body from LMA Cho and now cambos is trying to get himself out of trouble in that corner that left hand was partially blocked with the right elbow know what this fight reminds me what's that you hear that saying all the time you say you know the definition that you got one fighter playing checkers the other one playing chess oh and you know who the Chess Master has been for the majority of his career right this is the definition of [Applause] that oh now LMA starting to penetrate that body he's starting to go down downstairs now uh-oh he's trying to weak him a little bit more we haven't seen much Bodywork all the offense we've seen but yet not much to the body but now you can see it it's a great call by you Tim as he tries to wrap that left hand around the right elbow of cambos LMA is in control at the end of seven going down to the body and weaken cambos a little bit more if he can pull off the stoppage that was the big concern that everybody detailed the age of lomachenko and the year away from the ring what does he have left is he focused inspired after the heartbreaking disappointment against Devon Haney when he admitted he did not have that fire he was so gutted by coming up just short of becoming an Undisputed world champion have you folks noticed that c can't sustain coming forward and attacking consistently just keep coming forward and attacking he comes forward he falls off balance then he backs straight up the same thing over and over and over again still hasn't learned and have gotten comfortable hasn't gotten comfortable marching forward and mounting his offense henko doubling up that left hand moments ago does it again so at this point the only way LMA can lose this fight is if he gets caught gets hurt gets knocked out cambos is going to have to land something lucky on LMA if LMA gets a little too relaxed cuz he's in total control that can happen that's a possibility at the bruising and the redness in the face of CIS and he takes another shot up top mean SL J [Applause] and swivel jab has such pop on it as he turns it over it's a nasty shot changes the levels on it as well see you wonder why those elbows are extended from from LMA a lot of times you know you see you see his ribs exposed yes it seems like he's giv it up and sometimes he is you know downstairs however he's able to extend with those those hands a little bit quicker from that position having them a little bit extended out that's the reason why he does it Tess Tito's elbows extended up and now good shot left hand to split that guard with the right hand was cambos [Applause] you know I'm not going to lie I've been I've been impressed with the referee he's been out of that way he's been out of the action doing a good job tonight I don't understand what what cambos them was worried about going Nakamura Timmy we mentioned it that his father George cambos Senor tried to have him replaced that cut just opened up I wonder if it was from a punch or hit but here we at the start of this round I spoke with Brian Wilmont and he told me that cut is nasty it's on the eyelid but fortunately out on the outside so if it does start to bleed it's going to go outside the eye and not into the eye just a quick reminder I spoke with Anthony brover the executive officer of the Combat Sports Commission of Western Australia there is no instant replay here that is the rule in Australia with that local Commission but those head shots from M maeno have done damage on the face of cambos they've been dealing with that cut for a couple of rounds now as you see cambos is trying to double up that jab and send the right hand to the body you would think that all ringside observers and the judges have lomachenko well out in front there's right hand to the body as lenko came forward and has placed it look at that right eye doesn't look like it's affecting his vision at all Tess seemed like they got it under control in that corner good work right there from from Lama Chen on the inside just getting physical had his he stuck in the head lock you got one hand free let your hands go I like that again cambos is just wait waiting too long ooh what a shot I like that good shot right there to the body but that even better combination from lomachenko coming forward again bagging out or bagging up cambos look at the smothering effect so the right hand landed and then L's right on him like velcro he's Tethered to his waist exactly like the same distance like a rope is tied around man's Wasing never lets off of it yo-yo the yo-yo effect [Applause] yoyo doubles up the left hand again with that off angle to the right oh getting off of that getting off of that angle that weak side angle osis sometimes looks up thinks he's going to be there and he's not there but what is there is the left glove in his muck say Now You See Me Now you don't you know in these situations right here when you're when you're out gun like this when the fighter has so much skill like this you got to just focus on one target one Target and that's down to the body you know that footwork of lomachenko is exceptional tonight oh another head shot that was the short right hand the South ball lead hand but that right eye is worsening now what's coming up next in this division is next week on ESPN with Emanuel navarete against Dennis baranek it is probably more likely if navarete who's already a three Division champion can claim a lightweight Crown you could have unification in an outrageous matchup of styles of navarete against lomachenko but that's great to hear from tank Davis a willingness to say yeah lomachenko's next oh still got a couple of rounds test before he even go there but yes from the looks of the way the fight is going as of right now lomachenko will be fighting the winner of binic and navarete so you'll have the unification there and then you understand the situation with with chakur Stevenson another lightweight champion who's going to fight on ESPN on July 6 against artim harun so that'll be enticing he might get him the first or the beginning of the 20 2 and then for all the marbles tank Davis right now the championship rounds to go as a bloodied battered and outclassed George cambos is going to need something special here the critics have termed George campos's a on hit wonder he talked about how a win against lomachenko in this spot would cment his legacy instead this looks like it's going to be headed towards something where we discuss Vil enko extending his career and staying in that upper tier can't deny the toughness the toughness in the gritness of campos's he's took a lot of shots to the head and body tonight he's cut and he's still in this fight he's still trying to do something in this fight that's why his nickname [Applause] ferocious I admire his toughness [Applause] Tess oh big shots and snap back the [Applause] head again if you don't adjust to the level change if you don't you being the opp fighter you going to get hit with that shot every single time if you don't adjust your range and get the heck out of Dodge or get your head off the line you're going to get hit with that shot every single time do you hear how clearly you can hear the corners especially of George cmosis that's how you know lenos having a great night when he can silence 15,000 Australians having this kind of a performance against their former champion [Applause] bued and pattered face of cambos the connect Advantage as we start this 11th round is lomachenko 157 punches landed to 38 for cambos well you said that through the leadup he he was like one of the worst and and in copy box and and Landing again it's all it all has to do with his feet at the champion ship level cambos at the championship level as he tries to swipe that right hand to the body only lands 10 punches per round at the championship level that is one of the worst marks among Elite Fighters meanwhile lomachenko sits at the top of just about every Compu box [Applause] superlative how that how that 6 minute or 3 minute star down how is that looking now face offs and star Downs don't matter once you get through those ropes bro I'm just saying as you know better than anybody as a Hall of Famer oh he's tough ooh three minutes oh wow yeah okay skills that's what happened midweek and their first face off it went for over 3 minutes and then kosas did it again at the weigh and right now he has precious minutes left to try to answer this riddle of lomachenko back back Sports Center's coming your way [Applause] next the lomachenko's hoping to sit on the throne as king of the lightweights and the first step to get closer he was so close a year ago against Devon Haney he thought he went his way he called it a robbery so many observers thought he won the fight it was a great fight it was a close fight Haney with excellent work to the body with the right hands early lomachenko came on Mid rounds and late and then Haney swept the 12 for the slim win that path for lomachenko to Undisputed is ridiculous the fighters that he's going to have to face for the division's loaded like Shakur Stevenson I mean t Davis next week nowat and there we go body shot scores the knockdown in the 11th as if the damage to the eye isn't enough LMA says take that to the body and now he looks to close it and he does lomachenko's a champion again knockout Victory against the Aussie down under welcome back the silly 11th round knockout on a night of supreme skill accuracy power footwork angles you name it he showed it L's got a built again [Applause] [Music] Tess after the last just think about this two years have played out for kosas TFA Lopez right now must be kicking himself in the behind my gosh what a performance from lomachenko excellent performance by lenko absolutely far superior fighter tonight and keep in mind he delayed his chance to do this to serve his country tonight he went after it Timmy you said he's going to close the show tonight he's back to being that kind of a guy against kosas take us through it there he is going in for the Finish wow that wasn't a body no it was not it duck down and it hit him right in the face the level of it it almost looked like a body shot but look how close he was and how he was able to get out of range to make that punch Miss still be calculated calculated and have his eyes and still be in position and throw the Right Punch at the right time and that's the body shot that's the body shot right there there it is wow there's the body shot that's a liver shot right there it was on the right side that's the liver shot well placed shot right there and it was just accumulation I mean he took a lot of punishment tonight Tess campos's did and little by little he wore him down but he found that money punch here's the finish right here he knew he had his man hurt again going downstairs trust me when you get hit with a body shot like that and a fighter just touch you on the arm and sometimes you he's protecting that punch right there and the force from the punch and your elbow Jing you in that spot it hurts Tess look at that digging in to the body twice and you see the towel come in and it's and that was the father coming in Saving his son yep that was father good Credence to his father for stepping up and being a man to save his son I like [Applause] that a yearlong layoff 36 years old and still on top ladies and gentlemen can we please have a round of applause to these two world class Warriors the end comes in 2 minutes and 49 seconds into round 11 your referee
