00:00Look, I did everything in the locker room and in the corner, I did everything.
00:05Look at this, it's going to be good up to here.
00:08It's his, it's going to be good up to here too.
00:11It doesn't matter if he's on top or bottom.
00:13He can play wherever he wants, it's going to be good up to here.
00:31We are underway, round number one.
00:35Gentlemen, talk about a difference in styles and builds, we have it.
00:38And another Southpaw vs. Orthodox, it's been a theme tonight.
00:44Some stat that was not on the tail of the tape is the experience.
00:48And Vladimir Hernandez has tremendous experience against high-level opposition for many years.
01:01See Garcia pawing that lead arm, keeping the length.
01:05I think he has a four-inch reach advantage.
01:07He's utilizing that quite well, staying on the outside.
01:10This is where he is best suited.
01:12Trying to use that lead hand as a measuring stick.
01:15That way you can establish a little bit of distance.
01:17Once you let Hernandez get comfortable getting close.
01:20Already some redness around the right eye of Hernandez.
01:23I also like that Garcia's not overthrowing these punches.
01:26He's top-shotting, he's picking his spots, he's finding his holes,
01:29threading the needle.
01:31Last time out against Guido Schramm, remember that was a late-notice fight for Hernandez.
01:35We had some questions about his gas.
01:37Could he go the distance?
01:38Got a knockout in round number six.
01:39He's had notice for this one.
01:40He's a fitness freak.
01:41He was running on super on lead at that night.
01:46I remember I called his fight, which was an upset win over a highly-tatted Lorenzo Simpson.
01:50And he came into the fighter meeting.
01:53And I knew the name, and then I saw his face.
01:55I was like, oh no.
01:57Lorenzo's not ready for this guy.
02:00That's where expertise comes in handy, Chris.
02:04That right hand for Garcia.
02:05He's found a home for that right down the middle.
02:07Splitting the guard.
02:08Garcia's laying the cleaner punches this round.
02:10Hernandez putting more pressure.
02:12There's a clean shot there by Hernandez.
02:16This is Hernandez's style of fight.
02:19Walk you down, keep it close.
02:21Hernandez has got to make an adjustment.
02:22He's been hit with way too many of those straight right hands down the middle.
02:26Regardless if your chin can take it, can your face start swelling up and get caught and whatnot.
02:31And there's a lot of ways to end a fight that doesn't mean you don't get knocked out.
02:34What if he shot you in the face?
02:36Some chance you've got to be willing to take.
02:43It's called taking advantage of a break, gentlemen.
02:45You say go, he goes.
02:48I used to break this to try to walk behind the referees.
02:52I've seen that in literally every combat sport.
02:56Nice short right hand from Garcia.
02:59Hernandez has some chin, man.
03:01That was a big punch.
03:02Garcia's landed some good, clean shots this round.
03:04He's dealt well with the pressure.
03:06Good body shot as well.
03:08Hernandez will bring it.
03:09Let's see if Hernandez is able to slow Garcia down.
03:15Garcia so far doing a good job angling and moving through those quick, straight punches.
03:21Mixing up that right hand.
03:23Straight down the middle.
03:24As Hernandez bends over, he throws the uppercut.
03:28Miquet still using that left hand.
03:31Give him a round of applause.
03:50That's the fight.
03:52That's the right, listen to me.
03:55He attacks you and doesn't throw.
03:56You're stuck, right?
03:57You're stuck, right?
03:58When he puts his head in, put that uppercut in.
04:02Stop him from time to time.
04:04Half a long distance.
04:27Best way to watch him.
04:28The Pro Box TV app.
04:30We begin round number two of our main event.
04:32Raul Garcia in the black and white.
04:35Taking on Vladimir Hernandez and Enrique Dolores on the side.
04:38Black in the middle.
04:41So far, the boxing of Garcia has been the story.
04:44But Hernandez, you know, trying to put that physical pressure on Paul.
04:47You talk about that mental fatigue that starts setting in.
04:50He's not backing up.
04:52As successful as Garcia was in that last round, he worked very hard.
04:56And we're going to see how long he can keep that up.
04:58Because Hernandez is not going to stop coming forward.
05:02Hernandez is just getting hit too much from me.
05:04He's got to make an adjustment.
05:07Both you guys were world champions.
05:09Both you guys were boxers.
05:10And you always talk about, I had to have a gas tank.
05:13I had to box the whole time.
05:14Garcia has to box the whole time against Hernandez.
05:17I like how Garcia's using that measuring stick, though, with the lead hand.
05:20Establishing distance and it's allowing him to get leverage on his shots.
05:24Warned once for pushing off with it.
05:28Using it effectively.
05:29Once Hernandez closes that gap, don't let those hands go.
05:31He's very nice at placing punches.
05:33You saw him just throw a couple shots upstairs to land the body shot down low with the right hand.
05:37Ten rounds is a long time to deal with a guy like this.
05:41Hogan already won it.
05:45Close.
05:46Hernandez has had a success.
05:47Go ahead.
05:48Imagine Israel Madrimov.
05:49They got a pro debut.
05:50Pro debut.
05:51Stop them.
05:52Madrimov stopped Hernandez in his pro debut.
05:54Amazing.
05:55Madrimov, decorated amateur.
05:57He's not like everybody else turning pro.
06:03Levels to this game.
06:04It is rare, but you do see it in the southpaw with a really effective jab.
06:10Am I losing the audience making a Winky Wright reference?
06:12Everybody?
06:13Nobody?
06:14But that southpaw with a good jab.
06:15Yeah.
06:16Camacho was like that, too.
06:18Michael Moore, heavyweight champion, southpaw.
06:21Early career Camacho, part of Whittaker.
06:24Great jab.
06:25Good uppercut there by Hernandez.
06:27Hernandez is inside.
06:29Another one.
06:30Chad Dawson had a good jab, too.
06:31Yeah.
06:32It's a very good jab.
06:33This is what happens when you let fight dorks pop the chains.
06:35What was I talking about?
06:38October 9th, Chris Colbert versus Omar Salcido.
06:43Roblox Event Center.
06:45Get your tickets now because it is always fun in here.
06:48I'm telling you right now.
06:49They're some of the best crowds in boxing.
06:51Download the Pro Box TV app.
06:53Never miss your boxing news or a Pro Box TV fight.
06:56Guys, watch out for the Hernandez uppercut.
06:58He's finding a home for that.
07:00You're starting to see the redness of the nose of Garcia.
07:02It's a tricky shot that Hernandez throws.
07:04But great hook there from Garcia.
07:09Good combination there, but Hernandez taking it well.
07:11I like how Garcia takes off from some of the shots
07:13to set them up to put harder punches behind the disguise.
07:17And Machamp, do you notice he's starting to fall apart?
07:19He's looking more and more uncomfortable.
07:21Hernandez is really putting that pressure,
07:23that smothering style of his is difficult to deal with.
07:27Makes you work every second of every round.
07:33There's a point in a lot of these kinds of fights
07:35where you see not a mental break,
07:37but a guy going, God, why won't this guy go away?
07:39Not that they break down completely,
07:41but they go, God, there's a little bit of that frustration.
07:43There is, but I feel like when you're a good fighter,
07:46and a good boxer, you go into a fight
07:48against a guy like Hernandez,
07:50knowing you're going to go all the rounds.
07:52And you prepare for that mentally.
07:54We'll see.
07:56Well, Paulie, one of the things you've drilled into me
07:58from our work together in Provox
08:00is the mental fatigue of physical pressure.
08:02Yeah.
08:04Right now, round number three about to start.
08:06That pressure's coming from even when Garcia's throwing.
08:08Yeah.
08:10The one thing on Garcia, he's landing really good shots,
08:12consistently, but he's working very hard.
08:14So if he can lay on the fact that he's...
08:16or rely on the fact that he's landing so many good shots,
08:19even though he's working so hard,
08:21he can sit on that.
08:23But I'm like, just by language in the corner,
08:25it didn't look positive to me.
08:27That's Garcia, that is.
08:29Hernandez looks like it's another day in the office.
08:31He's got his... he brings his lunch pail.
08:33Has a great fight. Coach once told me,
08:35if you're tired either way, might as well win the round, right?
08:37And Garcia right now landing the cleaner punch.
08:39Yes, absolutely.
08:42Round number three of our main event,
08:44scheduled for 10.
08:46As you said, Chris, be ready for 10.
08:48Garcia also putting some shots in the bank
08:50with the body shots as well.
08:52Let's see if they can help him out as a round to flare on.
08:54Yeah, we mentioned several times from the open
08:56about Hernandez being a fitness guy.
08:58You can see the size difference.
09:00Guys who stay in shape usually are bigger.
09:02You can see, like, they cut weight a little easier.
09:04They carry their muscle better.
09:06It fills back in it for the weigh-in better.
09:08And you're seeing that in Hernandez.
09:10He looks like the physically bigger man.
09:14He looks a little shorter, Jim.
09:16True, but I mean, I'm looking at the legs,
09:18I'm looking at the shoulders.
09:20Yeah, you got two, three inches on him,
09:22but he looks like the bigger, stronger man.
09:24Great shots from Hernandez now, guys.
09:26And to your point, Chris,
09:28we broke down his fight earlier when we opened the show.
09:30What has Garcia been doing in the last year
09:32when he hasn't been in the ring?
09:34Has he been in the gym?
09:36Nothing prepares you for a fight with a guy like Hernandez
09:38because the guy's nonstop.
09:40He's like the tides.
09:42He doesn't stop.
09:44Look at Garcia, though.
09:46Even though the pressure doesn't stop,
09:48Garcia's solid with the clean shots.
09:50Yeah, very, very good punch selection.
09:52Good precision as well.
09:54He's landing high percentage.
10:08Ooh, nice combination.
10:10Good straight right.
10:12Right down the center.
10:14Oh!
10:16Big left hand.
10:18From Hernandez there,
10:20set that up beautifully.
10:22He never takes a shot and resets.
10:24He brings pressure to hold him.
10:26Even when he's hit, he goes forward.
10:28We're talking about failing up.
10:30This is a guy who gets hit and still comes forward.
10:32Garcia throws a bomb to that right hand.
10:34Sharp, explosive shots
10:36with bad intentions.
10:38You see him gritting his teeth on all these shots.
10:40Whoa.
10:42Yeah, he had Hernandez stuck on the ropes there for a while.
10:44He was loading up those big right hands.
10:46Hernandez just buys his time,
10:48stays relaxed.
10:50Yeah, Hernandez is like,
10:52all right, now my turn.
10:54Yep, now I'm going to beat the drum.
10:56Paul, you talk about it.
10:58They're getting into a your turn.
11:00Oh, good combination!
11:02Great right hand, and down goes
11:04Hernandez.
11:06Again, the leverage, I expressed that earlier.
11:08The leverage Garcia makes sure to get on his shots.
11:10He doesn't smother his shots.
11:12Creates that distance so he can get leverage on his punches.
11:14Not a lot of time here.
11:1615 seconds left in round number three.
11:18Took his time getting up.
11:20I don't know if those legs are back yet.
11:22Referee taking a long time to get these guys together.
11:24What are we doing over here?
11:26Oh, man.
11:28That was life-saving time.
11:30I don't know what that was,
11:32but he wanted him to.
11:34Hernandez walked to me, and Garcia was going after him.
11:36I didn't like that at all.
11:38No, that was life-saving time
11:40there for Hernandez.
11:42He was in a bad way.
11:44Wow.
11:46Let's take a look at the knockdown first.
11:48We'll discuss the controversy afterward.
11:50This is a beautiful gentleman.
11:52That was a left hook. I thought it was a right hand.
11:54It was actually a left hook.
11:56Boom, bang.
11:58Left hook, little right hand at the end.
12:00Watch this left hook. Bang, right there.
12:02That's how your combination gets done, right?
12:04You use those first couple of punches just to open things up,
12:06and then you set up the power shot.
12:08That's what I wanted Angel Loner to do earlier tonight
12:10instead of looking for power every single shot.
12:12That's a combination right there.
12:14Slow-mo, that right hand does look significant.
12:16Got him right in the temple.
12:18I was saying it earlier.
12:20I didn't like how many punches Hernandez was getting hit with.
12:22I don't care how good your chin is.
12:24It's going to go eventually.
12:26Again, use those couple of shots first to set it up
12:28for that left hook.
12:30Gentleman, the blind shot.
12:32He never saw it, as you said, Pauly.
12:34Disguised it with the opening combo.
12:36Good right hand, round number four.
12:38Hernandez has not shown me tonight
12:40to be able to get away from these punches.
12:42This is dangerous.
12:44Now you're the durable guy, but you just got hurt.
12:46If you don't have the ability to get away from those shots,
12:48and you've already got a chink in the armor from getting hurt,
12:50it's going to be very difficult to pull this one out.
12:52One thing Hernandez has never been on our air is elusive.
12:54He's always been there to be hit.
12:56That's one thing he could probably work on.
12:58He's moving his head on the way in.
13:00He tries to force his way in a lot of times.
13:02He'll break you mentally.
13:04He's tricky with his offense, not his defense.
13:06Now, gentlemen, it can be hard to mentally reset.
13:08You knocked him down at the end of the round.
13:10You could have finished him wherever he got in the way.
13:12I think it was a bad call by the ref,
13:14but do you slow a guy down?
13:16Hey, hey, start over?
13:18Or does Garcia go for the kill?
13:20Honestly, just do what you were doing.
13:22You couldn't miss a punch.
13:24He punches really well in the right hands.
13:26You're going hard, but you need to go hard.
13:28You got to stay focused.
13:30Just stay the route.
13:32Keep doing what got you there,
13:34because Hernandez is going to keep doing what he does.
13:36For some reason, I hear Teddy Atlas saying,
13:38if he comes in, you can close your eyes on him, right?
13:40That's what we're seeing right now.
13:42You can throw a beer bottle over your shoulder
13:44and not even look at him.
13:46It's going to hit him.
13:48We've got a million Teddy Atlas-isms if you need them,
13:50but right now Garcia having his way.
13:53Oh, that's that right hook again.
13:55Left hook again.
13:57I think Hernandez felt it again.
13:59He might be hurt again.
14:01His legs look wobbly.
14:04Garcia sees a home for that hook.
14:06He's trying to go back to it.
14:08Hernandez trying to answer back.
14:10A couple of good left hands, gentlemen.
14:12That's the Mexican in Hernandez.
14:14You see he doesn't...
14:16No quit in him right there.
14:19Good recognition from Hernandez.
14:21Whenever Garcia goes for it a little bit more,
14:23and he knows he needs a breather,
14:25Hernandez tries to bring it right to him
14:27during that breather.
14:29And it's that fitness we alluded to.
14:31He has faith in his gaps.
14:33Oh, my God.
14:35Hernandez landed a good right hook.
14:38Garcia first with the left hook over the top.
14:40Hernandez came right back with his right hook.
14:42It's funny, there were so many right hands
14:44that were being landed by Garcia early,
14:46but it seems to be the left hook
14:48that's having more of an effect later in the game.
14:50Just like that.
14:52Yeah, that hook there.
14:54And usually you look at the right hand
14:56against the southpaw as something that's going to work,
14:58but Garcia's showing the boxers at home
15:00that a left hook can work very well
15:02against the southpaw at close range.
15:04That's the one you don't see.
15:06That's the one that goes out of your field of vision,
15:08and the shot you don't see is the one that hurts the most.
15:10We're seeing that here,
15:12as that left hand just cannot miss.
15:14You may be thinking,
15:16does this guy have concrete in his chin?
15:18Knocked down in round number 3,
15:20but so far, as we wind down round number 4,
15:22he's been able to stay on his feet
15:24because he has taken some clean punches
15:26from the fighter from the Dominican Republic.
15:28Oh!
15:30Oh!
16:00Ah!
16:08Was it a knockdown
16:10at the end of round number 4?
16:12Champs, you tell me.
16:14Ref says no. Let's see.
16:16No.
16:18There wasn't a punch thrown by Garcia.
16:20It was a balanced shot.
16:22Yeah, lefty-righty. Maybe the legs tangled up.
16:24Yeah, the knees banged into each other.
16:26That hurts, actually. I've done that before.
16:28That's actually going to be sore tomorrow.
16:30It's the kind of collision, knee-on-knee collision
16:32that's going to make you sore tomorrow.
16:34It happened to me in a fight fighting a southpaw.
16:36My knee was swollen the next day, black and blue.
16:38Yeah, your adrenaline goes,
16:40but then the next day, you come back.
16:42Everything hurts.
16:44Paulie, we're not going to talk about checking leg kicks
16:46because it's awful.
16:48You know what? I didn't think about that.
16:50You come from that world, it's the worst.
16:52Hernandez versus Garcia.
16:54Hernandez in the tres colores.
16:56I don't believe where Hernandez is from.
16:58Mexico.
17:00Stockton, California, the 209.
17:02You know what I'm liking from Garcia?
17:04Whoa!
17:06Short right hand!
17:08Wow, he's rocked.
17:10Legs went right out from underneath Garcia.
17:12In the gym, we used to call that
17:14stepping in potholes.
17:16Wow, Hernandez, man.
17:18What a warrior.
17:20Did he have a temple?
17:22Hard to see.
17:24You know what?
17:26I did it for Hernandez.
17:28I'm going to do it for Garcia, too.
17:30Oh, big left hand!
17:32The only problem is, there's two minutes here
17:34for Hernandez.
17:36Holding on for dear life.
17:38I see it hurt, really hurt.
17:40Garcia should be holding on.
17:42His eyes were blank when he took that right hook.
17:44Can you believe this, man?
17:46I do not believe it.
17:48Roblox TV, fight of the year contenders.
17:50Last time, Hernandez gave us a knockout
17:52and now we're in a fight of the year contender
17:54here on Roblox TV with Hernandez in the main event.
17:56Garcia's eyes are not clear at all.
17:58He cannot see these punches coming.
18:00You know, Jimmy, at the end of the last round,
18:02I saw Garcia walking back to his corner.
18:04He looked exhausted, absolutely exhausted.
18:06Even though he's winning, even though he's ahead,
18:08scored the knockdown, had his man hurt,
18:10he just looks overworked.
18:12And we're seeing Hernandez.
18:14It's like the frog in the boiling water.
18:16You slowly boil him.
18:18Next thing you know, you're getting burnt up.
18:20And now Hernandez putting the physical pressure on.
18:22This is what Hernandez does.
18:24Long, difficult fight is what I do.
18:26I grind.
18:28He drags you to hell, this guy.
18:34He's chasing Garcia now around the ring.
18:36He's got to be careful.
18:38Garcia can still punch.
18:40He didn't want to run into his shot.
18:42And Garcia seems to be getting his battles back a little bit.
18:44Oh, nice uppercut from Garcia.
18:46Sweet uppercut.
18:48I think Hernandez in general has worked really well
18:50for Garcia tonight.
18:52You know, if Hernandez can get to the body,
18:54I think that'd be a real smart move here
18:56because you see in labored breathing
18:58from Garcia, mouth is open.
19:00Yeah, mental and physical pressure.
19:02Yes, everything.
19:04Yeah, Pro Box TV delivering again
19:06with this main event.
19:08What a night it has been.
19:10Now Hernandez trying to walk Garcia down.
19:12Hernandez even made a left hook miss
19:14a second or two seconds ago.
19:16That's what Garcia's missed all night.
19:20Hernandez is on point.
19:2210 seconds left to go.
19:24That's the thing.
19:26Even when you hurt your opponent,
19:28you recover that much quicker.
19:30Time!
19:46Time!
20:06Welcome into the corner
20:08of Raul Garcia.
20:12Listen to me.
20:14This is it.
20:16Knockdown last round.
20:18That was a right hook on the forehead.
20:20Balanced shot.
20:22Temple shot, right?
20:24I think it was more on the tip.
20:26It was literally his forehead.
20:28Bang.
20:30A little high on the temple, yeah.
20:32That was a weird knockdown.
20:34Yeah, it was a temple forehead shot.
20:36I mean, I think the forehead,
20:38I haven't felt it, but the temple for sure.
20:40Something that sometimes rocks you.
20:42Bruce Selden, Mike Tyson, forehead shot.
20:44That was Mike Tyson.
20:46That was also Bruce not wanting to fight.
20:48Once again, I had to mention it.
20:50Garcia, his corner saying move.
20:52They're not recommending he punch
20:54his way back into this fight.
20:56He looks exhausted, Chris.
20:58Hernandez, like, has turned himself
21:00into a puncher all of a sudden.
21:02Knocked out of the air his last fight.
21:04Now he's got to pull this one out of the fire
21:06by knocking this guy out.
21:08You know what the misery is
21:10about fighting this guy right now?
21:12You're in the corner and you see the girl
21:14holding up a 5 or a 6,
21:16and in between rounds, when you check one round,
21:18you're exhausted.
21:20That's misery personified when you're in a tough fight
21:22and you just don't have a fight to go.
21:24We're just over the halfway point,
21:26a minute into round number 6, scheduled for 10.
21:28Jimmy, we looked at each other
21:30as we saw both corners.
21:32You had Garcia's head over the water bucket,
21:34just looking like he was basically
21:36on his way to go to sleep.
21:38In his corner, it looked like he was waiting for the bus.
21:40Yeah.
21:42Fitness, fitness, fitness.
21:44Oh!
21:46Beautiful combination from Hernandez.
21:50A four-punch combination lands all four.
21:52The look in Garcia's eyes.
21:54It's been around the last couple rounds.
21:56His eyes have not looked clear.
22:00I'm going to call Hernandez the undertaker
22:02because he drags you to hell.
22:04He makes you fight, man.
22:06No matter what you do to him, he gets up.
22:08It was rare to see him hurt.
22:10That shows you Garcia can really punch
22:12because Hernandez has walked through
22:14championship-level fighters' power,
22:16not been hurt, not gone down.
22:18It's very rare to see him go down
22:20or get stopped.
22:22And is there a sense, Paulie, that maybe Hernandez says,
22:24hey, I took your best punches early in the fight.
22:26You're not going to hit that way now.
22:28He's just walking through a lot.
22:30Yeah. I mean, again, I said earlier,
22:32the Mexican in Hernandez makes him bring it
22:34even when he had to go through that fire.
22:36Hernandez really was taking a lot of shots
22:38on the way in early on, and it was really hurting,
22:40and he went down.
22:42There was not a lot of head movement on Hernandez,
22:44but now when you've worn down,
22:46you've ground down Garcia,
22:48now the lack of head movement doesn't affect you as much
22:50because even when you get hit,
22:52Garcia probably doesn't have as much sting on his shots anyway.
22:54I think Hernandez made a mistake, though.
22:56He's forgetting about the body entirely.
22:58He's fully on, full-on head-hunting
23:00these last two rounds.
23:02That's a really good question.
23:04The chin of Garcia we saw was a forehead shot.
23:06One thing about Hernandez,
23:08he's actually a very good body puncher.
23:10An excellent body puncher.
23:12That's what makes the note of it, too.
23:14Hernandez also changing range here
23:16and having Garcia miss and come up short.
23:18That also makes him more tired when you miss shots.
23:20Yep.
23:22You saw that right hand from Garcia
23:24but not backing Hernandez off.
23:26All those uppercuts.
23:28Hernandez has very tricky uppercuts on the inside.
23:30Let's go!
23:32Let's go!
23:34Let's go!
23:36Let's go!
23:38Let's go!
23:40Let's go!
23:42Let's go!
23:44Let's go!
23:46Let's go!
23:48Let's go!
23:50Let's go!
23:52Let's go!
23:54Let's go!
23:56Let's go!
23:58Let's go!
24:04Look at the face
24:06of Vladmir Hernandez!
24:10Want to say, don't give him distance.
24:12Keep that right ready.
24:16This is why?
24:18Because he had success in the previous round
24:20at that short distance, Chris.
24:22Yeah, Hernandez has been very good these last rounds
24:24but I feel like Garcia to a degree
24:26He's righted the ship some, he landed some big shots that round, he looked better walking
24:29back to his corner, recovering a bit from that knockdown from two rounds ago.
24:33We're gonna need that second win in round number seven.
24:37Each fighter has scored a knockdown.
24:42And it's Riddle's turn.
24:43A main event on Pro Box TV with knockdowns on both sides.
24:47You guys surprised?
24:48Not at all.
24:49He had a lot of knockdowns.
24:50Remember, fans at home, if you guys love us, tell your friends.
24:52The best compliment is a referral.
24:53Tell your friends to tune in.
24:54We're trying to give you guys the best fights possible.
24:55And you certainly are.
24:56This has been absolutely incredible.
24:57You told me the first two rounds that Hernandez would go in round number seven.
24:58You might have been a little surprised.
24:59You would have made some money.
25:00If you told me that Hernandez was going to be shoulder rolling left hooks, I'd be very
25:01surprised.
25:02And he started doing that now.
25:03He shoulder rolled the left hook.
25:04That left hook was good for him.
25:05He's got a lot of power.
25:06He's got a lot of power.

28:10Garcia starting out great with his boxing earlier.
28:14Raul Garcia's corner, Sam, saying raise your hand.
28:18Questioning his will.
28:19You want to win this fight?

28:21Vladimir Hernandez.
28:22Your point, Chris.
28:23This is his kind of fight.
28:24It's what he lives for.
28:26Round number eight.
28:27Vladimir Hernandez versus Raul Garcia.
28:30Pro Box TV main event.
28:32Mexico versus Puerto Rico.
28:34I'm sorry.
28:35Dominican Republic.
28:37Mexico-Puerto Rico this weekend.
28:40So true.
28:41We had Puerto Rico, Cuba, Colombia, Mexico, Italy earlier tonight.
28:46Everybody's represented here at Pro Box TV.
28:48Listen.
28:49You know, guys.
28:50This is actually still a close fight.
28:52We're having so much fun watching the fight.
28:54There's so many ebbs and flows.
28:56Garcia started very, very well.
28:58It's been all Hernandez lately.
29:00But he's got a lot of experience.
29:02He's got a lot of experience.
29:04He's got a lot of experience.
29:06He's got a lot of experience.
29:09He's still got time here in his last three rounds.
29:12Both have knockouts.
29:17The one thing in a close fight, Paul, you know it well.
29:19Hernandez is doing a good job controlling the real estate.
29:21He's generally the guy moving forward.
29:23That's the easiest thing to see for judges.
29:25Yeah, and Garcia less active with those shots.
29:29Early on he was active with some pretty good shots, big shots,
29:31even if he was going backwards.
29:33He had this head snapping of Hernandez, dropped Hernandez.
29:36But now it's arm-weary fatigue,
29:38that mental and physical pressure is worn on him.
29:40Not as accurate.
29:42You don't see Hernandez' head stepping back as much,
29:44but you do see Garcia's head snapping back more.
29:46I could easily see this fight even right now.
29:49It's going to come down to these last couple rounds.
29:51Great combination answer back by Hernandez.
29:55Gomez got off a good couple.
29:58Just as I was saying, Garcia comes alive with a couple of shots.
30:07Chris, we say it all the time, but who's 15 and 6?
30:10Right now, everyone has such an even fight.
30:13But we know about Hernandez.
30:15Hey, guys.
30:16Hombre art makers.
30:18They had Hernandez as the favorite.
30:20They did.
30:21Garcia started out really, really well here tonight.
30:23Now Hernandez is starting to show the quality in the last few rounds,
30:27but this fight's still up for grabs.
30:29Yeah, we talked about the tail of the tape.
30:31The only thing that wasn't on there was experience.
30:33We're starting to see Hernandez has that experience late in fights,
30:36has that experience.
30:38Good left hand to finish strong.
30:40Down goes Garcia again.
30:4345 seconds left in round number 8.
30:50Two knockdowns for Hernandez, one for Garcia now.
30:53I have a feeling Garcia's going to come out guns blazing right now.
30:56I don't think he was that hurt.
30:57Might be more fatigued than anything, but he knows he's got to get that back.
31:00Big shot.
31:03I think he heard you, Chris.
31:04Yeah.
31:06He walked right into that shot.
31:09Second knockdown of the night for Hernandez.
31:14Garcia has twice been knocked down and putting the pressure on again.
31:19And Garcia's –
31:20Oh, big left hook from Garcia.
31:22Oh, another one.
31:23Oh, big left hook.
31:27I just had a feeling he was going to come swinging.
31:30And he does.
31:31What a fight.
31:32Wow.
31:40It is deafening in here, as it should be.
31:44Wow.
31:46Bang.
31:48Both men landing good shots there, right hands.
31:52Nice combination there, but then Hernandez comes right back.
31:54This is the kind of fight, it's tip or tap, back and forth.
31:57And he's a knockdown, good little short shots by Hernandez.
31:59Very short little punches.
32:00Good shots, but a little fatigue as well there.
32:02And then, last flurry.
32:03I mean, Garcia went back to his early success of the left hook that he was having.
32:06Early on, Garcia couldn't miss a left hook early on in this fight.
32:09And he went back to that left hook here.
32:12And landed a couple of good ones to close the round.
32:14He believes in his power, man.
32:15We were wondering if he was working in the gym.
32:17He obviously has.
32:18He's shown a real ability to dig down.
32:22We didn't see that last time out in that loss.
32:30This corner said you got to have cojones these last two rounds.
32:34Translate that yourself.
32:35I agree.
32:36Nope.
32:37He's going to come down these last two rounds.
32:39Oh, good left hook.
32:41I think the end of the last round gave Garcia some confidence,
32:44even though he's the one that got knocked down.
32:46Now, Hernandez starting to fade a bit.
32:48Hernandez got hurt with a left hook upstairs.
32:50That tape is going to really be costly right now.
32:53Good right hand from Garcia.
32:58Hernandez answered back.
33:06Man, these guys.
33:07Now they're going to cut that tape off.
33:09What a fight, man.
33:10What a fight.
33:11I don't know who this helps here.
33:13I think, you know, Garcia was having some success.
33:17Hernandez looked a little wobbly with the left hook upstairs.
33:21At least they'll both take it, right?
33:22Yeah.
33:25This fight showcases the inhuman endurance and physical stamina
33:30it takes to be successful in this sport.
33:33Oh, great left hand right down the pipe for Hernandez.
33:37Another one.
33:38That's number three.
33:40Garcia two up high.
33:41Can't bend his knees.
33:42He's tired.
33:43He's going to hit a big shot.
33:44He's hurt now.
33:45A lot of punishment.
33:46Got to hold on.
33:47A lot of punishment.
33:50Garcia has to hold on.
33:51He's hurt.
33:52He's hurt.
33:54He's going to hit a big shot after big shot.
33:56Referee looking real closely at this fight.
33:59Showing guts is Garcia.
34:01Hang on in here.
34:02I'm trying to fight back.
34:03Clash of heads there.
34:04They got to be careful.
34:08A great man once said, guts will get you so far,
34:11then they'll get you killed.
34:12And metaphorically, that's what Garcia's looking at,
34:15trying to stay on his feet.
34:16Well, Garcia, I mean, both these guys,
34:18they're going out with their shields tonight.
34:19Neither one wants to take a step back.
34:22When we talk about Pro Box TV,
34:23we get to the hungry fighters.
34:24It's not just about good records.
34:26It's about good records and hungry guys that are hungry.
34:28They can taste that next level.
34:30They feel like they belong at that next level,
34:32but know they need to win here on Pro Box TV
34:34to get to that next level.
34:35And that's why our fights are so good,
34:37because everybody fights with that kind of hunger
34:39and integrity to the sport.
34:41Another good straight right hand from Garcia.
34:44I didn't realize Garcia had such a good left hook.
34:46He's got a nice, smooth, mean left hook with that lead hand.
34:51Oh, oh!
34:53Hernandez, man, when he lets those hands go in combinations.
34:56Sneaky uppercuts from Hernandez, right?
34:58Yep.
34:59But maybe this fight was about to be stopped.
35:02Garcia trying to fight his way back into it.
35:05It's so interesting, the shots that drop Garcia.
35:07The ones he takes are so big,
35:09and the ones that knock him down didn't seem like anything.
35:12I think they're half in fatigue, like,
35:13I can't do this anymore.
35:14Yeah, I need a break.
35:15I need to take a seat.
35:18Corner said he wanted cojones.
35:20We're seeing that from Garcia now.
35:22He took a beating.
35:23He's looking real strong again, fighting back.
35:29He's trying to get that left hook in there again.
35:33Oh, oh, oh!
35:36These guys back and forth.
35:38One round to go!
35:42In this incredible main event.
35:45What a fight.
35:46What a fight.
35:47What a fight.
35:48Looking around in the crowd here,
35:49I see so many smiling faces.
35:51I see so many teeth in the crowd.
35:55It's crazy.
36:11It's the end of the movie, his corner said.
36:17I think...
36:18I love the instruction in the bottom of your hand.
36:20It's called a change of movement.
36:21Step around on both sides.
36:23Dude, but it's exhausting.
36:26You try stepping from one side to the other,
36:28going back to the body shots,
36:29digging those in there after nine rounds of this.
36:32At this point, the only thing I can tell you, guys,
36:34bite down on your mouthpiece and fight.
36:36Go.
36:37Yeah.
36:38You know what I'm saying?
36:39You know what I'm saying?
36:40You know what I'm saying?
36:41You know what I'm saying?
36:42You know what I'm saying?
36:43You know what I'm saying?
36:44You know what I'm saying?
36:45Yeah, let's go.
36:46Yeah.
36:47Final round.
36:49Vladimir Hernandez
36:51in the Tres Colores.
36:53Raúl García in the black and white
36:56in the Dominican Republic.
37:00This fight has just been a back-and-forth war.
37:04García looks like he might walk away
37:05with an early, early knockdown
37:08over Hernández.
37:09Hernández came back and scored two knockdowns of his own.
37:15Bite down your mouth, pull up your cup.
37:17That's fight, not a round.
37:18Yeah.
37:21Wanted to be a boxer?
37:23This is what you got to do.
37:29I don't see how Serena's saying it.
37:30I don't know if Hernandez is using that measuring stick,
37:32right?
37:33You see Hernandez using that measuring stick.
37:34He's looking to leverage his big shots.
37:35The ebbs and flows and storylines of this fight
37:37has been incredible.
37:40Short punches of Hernandez, and it's been the difference.
37:43How about Hernandez in back-to-back fights,
37:44knockout of the year, fight of the year?
37:46How do you like that?
37:48At 35 years old.
37:49Guys, that's the stat we haven't talked about.
37:50Hernandez is 35 years old.
37:52Incredible.
37:55That is 116 in boxing years.
37:58Out there swinging.
38:00Especially the way he fights.
38:01Oh, my god.
38:02Oh!
38:03Big shot.
38:04Another good left.
38:05Again, Garcia eats it.
38:06He takes these huge shots.
38:15Halfway through the last round.
38:17Incredible minute 20 left.
38:21Going to be interesting to see what the scoreboard's, too.
38:23Those two knockouts.
38:24Yeah, those two knockouts are going to help Hernandez.
38:27Plus, you know, he's been fiery the second half of the fight.
38:31I don't know if Garcia had great advantages early in the fight,
38:34but I don't know if Hernandez may have overcome them,
38:36especially with two knockouts.
38:39Yao's makers can breathe a sigh of relief if Hernandez wins.
38:42They made him their favorite.
38:43It seems like he's closing stronger.
38:46Talk about his fitness, talk about his conditioning,
38:48and his will, and that has all been on display.
38:52Well, I think Garcia showed a lot tonight, too.
38:53Yeah, a ton of talent, power.
38:55Both guys showed a ton of heart.
38:56Heart.
38:58You know, Hernandez, you knew Hernandez had it.
39:00You've seen him before.
39:01You knew he was built for this kind of tough,
39:03rough-gold fight.
39:05Garcia had shown a lot of skills in his fight.
39:08Got stuck, got caught in the wrong kind of fight last time,
39:10but you weren't sure he could handle this kind of fight.
39:13He may not win it, but he got a lot of respect tonight.
39:14I didn't think he'd still be here in this kind of fight,
39:16getting him with the shots he had,
39:18showing the heart that he's showing,
39:19throwing big bombs here in the end of the 10th round.
39:22I'm very impressed with Garcia tonight.
39:23He showed a lot.
39:25Landed some clean punches in round number 10,
39:27but to your point, Paulie, is that enough?
39:29With 10 seconds left to go.
39:33Oh!
39:35Unbelievable fight tonight at Pro Box TV.
39:39You see the crowd rising to their feet as they should.
39:45What a war.
39:55Was not supposed to be our main event.
39:58My God, did they live up to their promise?
40:01Was not supposed to be our main event.
40:03My God, did they live up to their placement
40:05on the card tonight?
40:07Stepped up to the plate. Wow.
40:08Stepped up to the plate,
40:09and we're swinging for the fences, baby.
40:16All up to the judges now.
40:22Recap of the fight, absolutely incredible.
40:24I mean, I'm not even gonna talk over this.
40:25Just watch it. It's so much fun.
40:27You see the early advantages of Garcia,
40:29and Fernandez maybe not moving his head on the way in,
40:31was gonna cost him and get stopped.
40:32That was actually word, Fernandez.
40:33We went down the good knockdown from Garcia.
40:36He couldn't, Garcia couldn't miss with the left hook,
40:37and then all of a sudden, in round five,
40:40you get a bit of a change,
40:42and you get this knockdown from Vladimir Hernandez,
40:44and the fight turns on its heel.
40:46On its, what is it? We've got its heels, on its head.
40:47What are we turning? It turned on everything.
40:49Goddamn. It turned on the punch.
40:51Yeah, and there's back and forth.
40:52That's what, if you look at it, those first four rounds,
40:54all Garcia and the knockdown.
40:56Hernandez towards the knockdown in round five.
40:58He takes over for a bunch of rounds.
41:00Then it just becomes a war of attrition.
41:01Garcia's shaking his head there, like,
41:03what is up with this guy?
41:05But then he got up swinging,
41:06and actually was able to hurt Hernandez a few times.
41:09Big respect to both of these guys.
41:10This is what, this is what makes boxing fans love boxing,
41:14these kind of fights.
41:15And you said, I mean, especially now watching the recap,
41:17I'm thinking about it again, that second knockdown
41:19is gonna play a major, major role.
41:21That really could be the difference in the fight.
41:25It also might be what you appreciate,
41:27because when Garcia landed, they were clean.
41:29These beautiful punches.
41:31A little bit more clubbing from Hernandez.
41:32How do the judges see it?

42:43He was very impressive.
42:44I didn't think he had that dog in him like that,
42:46but he showed incredible resilience
