00:00 - All right, gentlemen, we went over the entrance

00:02 of the dressing room.

00:03 I expect a clean fight.

00:04 Let's shake hands and back to the corners.

00:07 [cheers and applause]

00:10 - Do not go get a drink.

00:12 Do not go to the bathroom,

00:14 because Richard Torres Jr. has four first-round knockouts.

00:18 Terrell Herndon, well, he's on a three-fight knockout streak,

00:22 part of a longer nine-fight win streak,

00:25 six of those by knockout,

00:26 so he's got a chance to win.

00:28 So there's a lot of power inside the ring

00:31 right now with Torres and Herndon.

00:34 - The right hand of Herndon has the power,

00:38 and that's the punch that gives the Southpaw

00:42 most of the trouble.

00:44 And already, as you see,

00:47 Torres gets off to a fast start.

00:49 He got clipped right there on the way in,

00:51 trying to get inside.

00:53 But that's what makes Torres different.

00:55 He fights at a high pace.

00:57 High-intensity pace,

00:58 and he hits hard with those punches.

01:00 - [shouting]

01:03 - "F.A. Jagba" is a name we've been hearing a lot.

01:07 Tonight, the two fighters before

01:09 both had been able to beat F.A. Jagba.

01:12 Tyrell Herndon lost to F.A. Jagba

01:15 in July 2017 by knockout.

01:17 F.A. Jagba will be our main event

01:19 against Joe Goodall on November 4th in Lake Tahoe,

01:22 so don't miss that fight.

01:24 - Yeah, you cannot resist.

01:26 Yeah, you cannot relax when you're in the ring

01:29 with Torres Jr.

01:30 I mean, if he has one hand free, he's using it.

01:33 - He won't let you relax. That's the thing.

01:36 - Herndon is sitting in that corner

01:38 trying to tie--actually grab one arm or one hand,

01:43 and Torres got busy with the opposite hand.

01:46 - It's that left hand that works so well for him

01:49 and just barely caught part of a glove of Herndon there.

01:53 - You see a little bit of irritation under the right eye

01:57 of Richard Torres Jr.

01:59 You said you wanted him to see in

02:01 against the guy who punches back.

02:03 Herndon can be that guy. Will he be that guy?

02:05 - Yeah, Herndon's right now sitting back

02:07 trying to weather the storm right now,

02:09 trying to buy his time,

02:10 trying not to get knocked out in the first round.

02:14 - Nice angles right there from Torres.

02:17 - Torres, let's watch you.

02:19 Don't turn around. Let's go.

02:22 - See, Torres is able to get to Herndon a lot more often

02:26 is because Torres--

02:28 [laughs]

02:29 Told you, it don't matter what position you're in,

02:32 Torres is gonna hit you.

02:35 Just look at the lead hand jousting.

02:37 You know, that acts as a range finder.

02:39 You see him right here. Level changes.

02:41 You get your opponent looking at you.

02:43 You see the feints they add with that.

02:45 And it also can provide punch traffic.

02:47 And what that means is that it can be a little bit

02:50 of a shield for you.

02:51 Good shot.

02:52 It can be a shield for you,

02:53 so you can use that to deflect punches coming your way.

02:57 But how he's able to get inside is with that.

03:03 That joust right there.

03:07 - Trying to set up a shot as Herndon was bouncing off the ropes.

03:12 Torres has heavy hands,

03:13 but so far Herndon has been able to take his shots here

03:18 in Rosenberg.

03:20 Richard Torres is known as a gentleman boxer

03:22 for his genuine and humble personality outside of the ring,

03:25 but inside the ring, as you're seeing now,

03:27 he turns into something completely different.

03:31 - A big left hand and a huge right,

03:38 and it is a face plant.

03:41 - When I land a clean shot, once I feel that impact,

03:44 and I understand that he's hurt,

03:47 I'm going in for the kill.

03:49 - Big shot!

03:50 Torres floors him in the final seconds of round one.

03:55 - Oh, my God.

03:56 - Wow.

03:57 - Boxing is a part of me.

03:59 Like, I never got into boxing.

04:01 I never really stayed into boxing.

04:03 It's kind of like asking what I like most about my right hand.

04:06 It's me, you know?

04:07 It is who I am.

04:09 - Matter of time.

04:11 Look at that.

04:12 - He'll go to sleep.

04:13 - Sends it back with a three-punch combination.

04:15 Oh, my goodness.

04:17 - He'll tell you sometimes in the comedies,

04:19 "I never knew if I was that guy."

04:22 I said, "What do you think now?"

04:23 He goes, "I'm that guy."

04:25 - Yeah, he's that guy that stopped Marco Antonio Canelo.

04:33 The first knockout you saw there in 44 seconds,

04:35 Roberto Zavala in 58 seconds,

04:38 and he's only fought coming into this fight

04:41 18 minutes and 59 seconds in six fights.

04:44 Now he's at 21, 59-plus.

04:47 Saw him land 15 total punches there in the first round.

04:51 Nice body work from Torres.

04:53 He's hurting and tried to land to the head.

04:56 - See, and the thing with Torres is he's a--

05:00 he's a small--considered a small heavyweight

05:02 in this generation,

05:05 so he has to get close.

05:07 You know, he has to maul these guys.

05:09 And that's what makes him different.

05:10 He has--he throws--he's very entertaining

05:12 because he throws a lot of shots.

05:14 He don't shy away from the action.

05:16 - He's aggressive but undersized,

05:18 but he's high-tempo, as we saw,

05:20 by the 15 landed punches there.

05:22 Nice one-two from Torres, and down goes Herndon!

05:25 [cheers and applause]

05:27 - Three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.

05:33 - Up at nine.

05:36 A minute and 55 seconds left.

05:39 What will Torres Jr. do here?

05:41 We want to see more from him,

05:43 but his M.O. is, "I don't get paid for overtime.

05:47 I get paid to put guys on the canvas."

05:51 That's what he's trying to do to Herndon here

05:54 in the second round.

05:56 The fight's all done.

05:58 Yep, once you turn your back, as Tyron Herndon did,

06:01 the referee's gonna step in,

06:03 and Richard Torres gets the stoppage win

06:06 by technical knockout in the second round.

06:09 Maybe not as spectacular as we would have liked

06:12 in terms of a finish, Tim,

06:14 but in the end, the first knockdown was pretty clean.

06:18 - Pretty clean knockdown.

06:20 You know, Herndon came here.

06:23 He felt that he didn't want anything to do with it.

06:26 I mean, easy fight.

06:27 I mean, I could pick this fight with my eyes closed.

06:29 As soon as I read the name, I knew what was gonna happen.

06:32 I knew exactly what was gonna happen.

06:34 But good--let's put it this way.

06:36 Good performance right here by Torres.

06:38 Torres did exactly what he was supposed to do tonight.

06:41 - That's exactly it.

06:42 Guido did not do what he was supposed to do,

06:44 and this man, I promise you,

06:46 he's gonna be a little bit better.

06:48 - Well, let's put Harford in the ring with this guy.

06:51 - Okay, I like that,

06:53 because Harford will make him work.

06:55 Let's take a look at what worked for Richard Torres

06:57 with the first knockdown, Tim.

06:59 - Straight left hand.

07:01 But see, what I'm looking at,

07:03 I'm looking at the head placement.

07:05 He got off the line with his head

07:08 to land that straight left hand,

07:10 and here's the second knockdown, I believe.

07:12 Straight left hand right there.

07:13 Boom, beautiful shot.

07:15 He just mauls you.

07:16 I mean, he throws so many punches.

07:18 You have to worry about so much.

07:22 Then step around right there,

07:24 just getting around, swinging his arm around him.

07:27 Ole-ing him.

07:28 And just catching him with the ankles right there.

07:30 I mean, the referee saw the posture,

07:32 the posture of Hondon.

07:33 He didn't want to fight.

07:35 Look, I mean, got him in a bad position.

07:38 - You see the disappointment in the face

07:40 of Richard Torres Jr., because he wanted to finish.

07:43 - Oh, he wanted that killer knockout.

07:45 He wanted that highlight reel.

07:46 He wanted to add to what he's been doing.

07:48 And, you know, right now, Richard Torres,

07:50 he needs to enjoy this.

07:51 - Yeah.

07:52 - Because, trust me, things are going to heat up

07:54 for him real soon.

07:56 You know, top-ranked, best matchmakers in the business,

07:59 they understand that they need this guy

08:00 to have more rounds.

08:01 They got to see how his condition is late.

08:03 They got to see him take a shot.

08:05 And that's going to be coming real soon.

08:07 So enjoy this.

08:08 It's great.

08:09 Seven and 0, seven knockouts.

08:10 Fantastic.

08:12 - This is stage one of his career as a pro

08:16 after a stellar amateur career.

08:19 A good performance from Richard Torres.

08:22 - He did what he's supposed to do.

08:23 - He wants more.

08:24 - Yeah, and that's the thing.

08:25 That's the thing with him.

08:26 Like, speaking with him in the fighter meetings,

08:28 most guys are like, "Ah, leave him to the hands."

08:30 He's like, "I'm ready to step up whenever, Tim."

08:32 - Yep.

08:33 - You know, whenever.

08:34 I want to fight all these guys, every last one of them,

08:36 you know, at the right time, though, Tim.

08:38 So we'll see next time out.

08:41 We'll see next time out who he face,

08:42 but I'm going to tell him right now,

08:43 put him in there with Harper,

08:44 so that way he can show Guido

08:47 what you're supposed to do with a guy like Harper.

08:49 - All right, so Richard Torres steps up to the plate,

08:52 hits it out of the park.

08:53 Another man who always hits it out of the park,

08:55 Mark Chinook, who won this fight,

08:57 and how much did it last?

08:58 - Ladies and gentlemen, here inside the Fort Bend Epicenter,

09:01 referee Alejandro Leon calls a stop to this bout

09:04 at 1 minute, 26 seconds of round number two.

09:08 Declaring your winner by technical knockout,

09:11 Richard "Kiki" Torres Jr.

09:18 - We already knew who won the fight.

09:19 You, the fans, won the fight,

09:21 because it lasted 4 minutes and 26 seconds total,

09:25 almost 1 and a half minutes into round two.

09:28 Richard Torres Jr. gets his seventh victory.

09:31 No man has been able to get past the third round

09:34 in his young career,

09:35 and the Olympic silver medalist continues to fight.
