00:00And...
00:04Boxers centering.
00:06Just touch them up boys, back to your corners.
00:10Cesar Varga dedicating this fight to his late grandmother.
00:15Sam Goodman dedicating this fight to putting food on the table and getting back into the big time.
00:24A very meaningful fight for both of these men.
00:30On what has been an entertaining night of action at Sydney's historic Horton Pavilion.
00:37Goodman and Varga.
00:40The Mexican just slides out with his right foot for a moment.
00:46Ben Damon at commentary alongside former world champion Tim Zuh.
00:50And what do you want to see from Sam Goodman in the early stages of this fight against a man who you've told us is a real problem.
00:58At the moment he's going with the pressure.
01:02High guard pressure.
01:04Cesar moving, looking for the openings.
01:10I think it's going to be a quick start from Cesar.
01:14But with Goodman it looks like he's already pushing the pace and he wants to bring the action straight away.
01:21Using the front hand for different fakes.
01:24Using the jab.
01:28It's been a long time out of the ring for Sam Goodman.
01:30Ten months in fact.
01:33He had those awful false starts for the undisputed fight with the cut.
01:41And the cut again.
01:43All the while preparing and training hard and now finally he gets back in the ring.
01:51As Varga reaches out nicely to the body with his left hand.
01:58He's sharp and having watched his previous fights, Varga, he doesn't just come and brawl.
02:11He's happy to box and he's got fast hands and uses the ring nicely as well.
02:16And he's doing all of that in the early stages here against the high quality Sam Goodman.
02:22And he's got good defense, very aware of punches, very good movement.
02:41Cesar Varga did promise to target that scar tissue that Goodman has.
02:50Would that be in the mind of Sam Goodman?
02:54Do you think it's him coming back into a fight after a bad count?
02:59Look, I think the time has passed. I don't think it's going to affect him.
03:04He's just got to be strategic on finding the openings.
03:08Because this guy is sharp and he's got some very quick counters.
03:13Goodman continues to press forward on to Varga.
03:17He's happy to go back and then punch him.
03:20Oh, right hand is a good one from Goodman to finish the round.
03:31Solid round from both fighters. A good right hand from Goodman to finish it.
03:35Solid round from both fighters. A good right hand from Goodman to finish it.
03:40He doubled his jab through the left hook.
03:43Stay alive on that. He didn't want to throw it back.
03:46So when we make a miss, look to jump on that.
03:49If you get a false punch out of him, look to follow.
03:52What have you noticed? The jab to the body is floppy.
03:55Unless he's trying to roll one over, let's follow him home.
03:59Otherwise, real good. I'm going to earn him a couple of rounds.
04:03So no rushes.
04:05When he puts on the 3 or 4 bits of footwork, that's just him looking for a break mate.
04:10All right, he doesn't shake at all. Real good, real good.
04:16Some nonchalant reactions there from a very comfortable Sam Goodman
04:20as his trainer Joel Keegan gave him all the advice out of the first 3 minutes of this one.
04:40Jabs from both fighters. Coming forward, Varkar.
04:50Very good defence by Sammy Goodman.
04:53Using his front hand to block the straight right coming.
04:57Yes mate, come on.
05:01Good boy, good boy.
05:03He gave a 30 second chance.
05:05And it's Goodman pressing forward again and Varkar who finds himself now against the ropes
05:11but moves nicely to his left and he finds himself in another corner.
05:18Goodman pressing forward, jabbing to the body, looking over the top as well.
05:22Punch his eyebrow.
05:24Good boy.
05:28Coming forward, Varkar.
05:39Varkar just threw his shot. Goodman got on the inside of him.
05:43Both of them unable to score with anything big.
05:48There's Goodman jabbing.
05:50And again.
05:54Small hands from Goodman.
05:58Cesar Varkar just on his knees to try and position himself and Goodman found him.
06:07Goodman is boxing very well. Very tight guard, very tight defence
06:11and at the same time pressuring and putting on that pressure to get him tired.
06:16Get Cesar tired.
06:19He's throwing some good shots as well but he's not being able to land on Samuel.
06:27And it feels like it's Goodman that's moving forwards and pushing Varkar back
06:36throughout what we've seen so far.
06:38And I know the Mexican will not want to do that all night.
06:49Varkar.
06:57Closing in again, Goodman. Varkar comes forward with some good shots.
07:00Goodman finishes it with the right hand.
07:04Great technique, good body, great technique.
07:07Good boy.
07:09He's got a curly curve in there.
07:13Varkar.
07:16Top of the head.
07:19In the second round, Varkar explodes for a moment but Goodman moves backwards.
07:28Two rounds down. This is a ten rounder, our main event.
07:35Trying to hold centre forward.
07:37After 30 seconds, we get our feet together and start going backwards.
07:41We're going to tear him up when we go up sideways.
07:44We have to really think hard when he goes back to centre.
07:47You know what I mean? That's where he could change momentum.
07:50Have a look at his right hand. It's very high, but he's going backwards.
07:54He's out to the body.
07:56He's not on, he's not on, so have a look at it.
07:58Too high.
08:00All right?
08:04Two rounds, we're going to be hitting him right here with the left hook.
08:07Okay, he's hooking.
08:09I want him to floor up.
08:17Tim Zhu, anything else you'd like to see from the Mexican, Cesar Varkar, in this fight?
08:24Look, I feel like instead of moving around, I want to see him be able to stamp his authority.
08:30Right now, Sammy Goodman's winning the rounds and Cesar has to change it up a little.
08:39Let's see if he can, the Mexican, after...
08:42Let's see if he can, the Mexican, after a couple of good Goodman rounds to start things off.
08:51Oh, he's...
08:52How many shots now?
08:54Oh, that's a good shot, an uppercut.
08:56With that left hand from Varkar.
09:00He's very explosive.
09:04That was better stuff from the Mexican.
09:07Let's see if he can build on that.
09:12Wild left hook misses and Goodman just happy to press forward and pressure.
09:18Push him back onto the ropes.
09:22Good defense by Sammy.
09:26Good shot from Varkar, but it was Goodman who came back with a left hand on the inside afterwards.
09:42Good shot.
09:49Downstairs and upstairs from Goodman.
09:55Varkar reaches out to the body.
09:58Tries so again.
09:59Good shot.
10:08Varkar pushed forward but couldn't find the target of Goodman.
10:15Goodman couldn't find him over the top and Varkar reaches out and just falls short with a right hand.
10:20There's a right hand from Goodman, that's a good one.
10:26Cesar Varkar shook his head.
10:29It was a nice right hand from Goodman.
10:33He closes in again here.
10:44Varkar moves his head and stays away from trouble there.
10:49Pulls around to his left and he reaches out with a couple of jabs.
10:57Jab from Goodman.
10:59In again.
11:20Varkar comes forward but again he just can't find Sam Goodman.
11:24There he goes.
11:26Good right hand it was from Varkar with that leaping reverse stance for a moment.
11:36He doesn't like being on that back foot.
11:38I told you that's where we're going to carry him up.
11:40I need the clean kick for another round before we look to take four.
11:44And he is starting to blow a bit.
11:46Frozen shape.
11:47Tucked our head in once and he went up the middle line.
11:51I don't mind sticking our head in if we're clean and we answer.
11:55You're starting to see him go for the body and the counter now.
11:59That was that upper cut that was a good one from Varkar.
12:01What else are you seeing in that round in particular Tim?
12:06He's got these fast twitch muscles where he comes with quick combos.
12:11Either a two or a three punch combo and then he moves around.
12:16I thought he won that round even though Sammy was pressing but he landed the cleaner shots.
12:25Varkar rounds according to Tim Zhu after a couple of Goodman rounds to start us off.
12:43Body shot from Varkar with that left hand.
12:55Jabbing now.
12:57The Mexican.
12:59Missing over the top.
13:01Sammy's got very good defense.
13:03He's able to maneuver the shots and be able to see it.
13:07Counter shot from Goodman.
13:09Varkar went to the body nicely and he does so over the top there.
13:14Starting to open up this fight here in round four.
13:18We're at closer quarters and all of a sudden Varkar is not going backwards.
13:23He's just walking forwards.
13:26Good shot.
13:27Good shot.
13:28Goodman goes to the body and the arms immediately drop from Cesar Varkar.
13:35Well he's not going to retreat anymore by the looks.
13:38He's going to come forward the Mexican and that's going to open things right up.
13:49Good jab.
13:51And a right hands to Varkar off the back of his own jabs.
14:02Looks to the body. There's the Mexican.
14:07And he's holding his ground now.
14:12Goodman continues to press on to him. Works off the jabs.
14:16Jab comes back from the Mexican.
14:21Very good jab. Good control by Goodman.
14:40Reaching out to the body. Sam Goodman.
14:43Sam Goodman.
14:47And Varkar just happy to go back to the ropes.
14:50But is he trying to bring Goodman in and on to something?
14:54And now he steps forward.
14:57Goodman meets him at center ring as he goes one-two to Varkar.
15:01With Goodman moving backwards.
15:03Leaping out.
15:06The lead power shot followed by his jab is Varkar.
15:09They're mixing things up.
15:11As Goodman presses towards him now.
15:17Good shot there from Goodman. He took one. He gave one back.
15:25Varkar reaches out.
15:27Collects Goodman to the body as they head to the stools.
15:30Good round for Goodman.
15:31With four rounds down.
15:33Very disciplined round. Controlled over the jab with the front hand.
15:41Desperate win. Five down, our attack.
15:44Take it straight off him. Get busy again.
15:46Every time.
15:48We're going to earn a two-back here in six rounds.
15:51Don't go pushing it. Make sure we learn.
15:57When we pass, push and carry.
15:59What did I ask for?
16:01Punch straight up.
16:04Good.
16:09What did you like about what Sam Goodman was able to do in that fourth round, Tim?
16:13The front hand. The control.
16:15He wasn't allowing Cesar to set up.
16:19And everything that Cesar was throwing wasn't landing at all.
16:24His control and his presence in the ring.
16:34Good jab as well to the body.
16:46So we've seen a different version of Cesar Varkar a couple of times through this fight.
16:52Coming forwards and standing and trading.
16:55Or retreating and boxing from the ropes.
17:00Goodman.
17:01Much the same pattern throughout.
17:04But it seems like his corner is talking about maybe throwing more of the backhand.
17:13And bringing some more options into play the further we get on in this fight.
17:25Good front hand.
17:31Nice little moment for Goodman.
17:33And for Varkar.
17:37There's a group of punches.
17:41Goodman out of the way of those.
17:44Jabbing himself now. There's a jab from Varkar.
17:52Jabs to the body and over the top from Goodman.
17:56And reaching out but missing.
18:01Goodman.
18:07Chasing is Goodman.
18:14One-two from Cesar Varkar.
18:17Not landing though.
18:18No.
18:20He's defending nicely is Goodman.
18:24He's got very good pressure equipment.
18:27In front of him the whole time. Not letting him breathe.
18:31Cutting the ring off very well.
18:35Good shot from Sam Goodman.
18:37The power right hand scored on Cesar Varkar.
18:42Varkar came back.
18:46We like that as things start to open up with Goodman.
18:51Jelly jab strongly.
19:01Good.
19:15The pressure building on Varkar.
19:17And he takes another right hand.
19:19He explodes himself but that's two clean right hands.
19:23As he gets through with a left hook there's Varkar.
19:25And a right hand as well but Goodman defends it.
19:31Good right hands from Goodman in that round.
19:34Cesar Varkar had his own moments late as well.
19:37The right hands weren't there.
19:39What is going to be there is body shots soon.
19:41Kicking that head in.
19:43You've got to be careful.
19:44He will answer.
19:45Body shots up top.
19:47All right.
19:48Cesar, lean on the cuffs.
19:50Start to rotate real well.
19:52All right.
19:53Try and get out and follow closely.
19:55And in those places again we're five up.
19:58Beautiful.
19:59These are the right hands of Goodman.
20:03Perfect counter.
20:05Textbook right there.
20:07Good shot.
20:27So we enter the second half of the fight.
20:31Corner.
20:33Let's mop that up.
20:35So they clean up the spillage in the corner of Varkar.
20:44And they meet again in the middle.
20:47Good boy.
21:04Jabbing and right hands as well.
21:07Goodman, Varkar.
21:09Knocks his head.
21:11He comes forward with his own shot.
21:13Goodman downstairs.
21:14Varkar over the top.
21:17Good shot.
21:27A low blow ruled from Cesar Varkar.
21:29It's just a warning from Will Sulos.
21:37Good shot.
21:381, 2, and 3 from Goodman.
21:42And the Mexican corner beckon their man forward.
21:47Good shot.
21:58That's a good shot from Goodman.
22:09And the right hand too from Goodman.
22:12Body shot from Varkar.
22:14Fired up his wild hook with that shot to the body.
22:18Tried to find him over the top as well.
22:24Right hands.
22:26Chopping down from Goodman there.
22:28Nice tangle.
22:31And into the body goes Goodman.
22:33Over the top.
22:34A good shot from Varkar.
22:36And an uppercut as well.
22:37Goodman comes straight back.
22:38Starting to trade with each other.
22:44Watch your left.
22:45Be careful.
22:4850 seconds left.
23:14Now they're trading on the inside.
23:19And you can tell Goodman wants to step it up.
23:22That is a left rip to the body that scored big too.
23:27Pressing is Goodman.
23:29Off the back of a couple of good body shots.
23:35The heads clash too.
23:37Right at the end of the round.
23:44We've got the chance to do what we want.
23:46We lift him, we look to jump.
23:50You notice when he comes to the middle.
23:52And wants to go at us.
23:54Your job is to lift him front and back.
23:57Just buff your hands and buff your feet.
23:59Buff your head movement.
24:01But put a double on it.
24:03I want those double taps.
24:05Every time we push and parry him.
24:07I need a punch.
24:14Do you want to do these things next time?
24:16He won't want to go too hard.
24:18He wants to see the finish line.
24:20Down top and make sure the pace is right.
24:22Let's go.
24:27Plenty of work.
24:29Going into that previously damaged eye of Sam Goodman.
24:33In between rounds.
24:35But so far so good with it.
24:39Comes out southpaw.
24:41Sanzo Abaka.
24:43Comes out left handed.
24:45For this 7th round.
24:47Tries to mix things up.
24:49After taking a couple of good shots.
24:51Particularly to the body.
24:53In the previous.
24:55A nice lead power left hand.
24:57From the southpaw stance.
24:59He's taking right hands.
25:01He will be susceptible to those.
25:03He goes.
25:05Turn around.
25:08No.
25:10Body shot Goodman.
25:14And there's more and more success.
25:16Starting to learn.
25:18More success over the top as well.
25:20Abaka taps the gloves together.
25:22Breathes deeply.
25:26Talks himself back into the brawl here.
25:30Good defence again.
25:32Not getting hit.
25:34Very disciplined fight from Sanzo.
25:38What can he do?
25:40To keep opening up the body.
25:42That seems to be a real strong point for him.
25:44Tim?
25:46Yes.
25:48He's very hard to hit in the body.
25:50When he's landing.
25:52He's doing very good.
25:54He doesn't want to get too close.
25:56To distance.
25:58He's able to control the distance.
26:00Goodman is fighting the perfect fight.
26:04Chopping right hand.
26:06Right hand from Abaka.
26:08As they got together there for a moment.
26:18Just waiting for his moment here.
26:20Jabs well.
26:24Reaching out with the right hand to the body of Abaka.
26:26And jabbing away Goodman.
26:28Trying to set something up.
26:30Good shot.
26:32That's a nice punch.
26:34Good boy.
26:36Break.
26:40Get off his neck.
26:46Good boy.
26:50Off his neck Sam.
26:52Break.
26:54Break.
26:56Second time on his neck.
26:58Sam Goodman about positioning himself around the neck of Abaka.
27:04Break.
27:08Break.
27:16Break.
27:20Abaka tries to run back towards Goodman.
27:26Sam Goodman right into his seventh round.
27:28rounds. There's a beautiful shot. The round wasn't already assured. That one did plenty
27:41of convincing. A strong right hand. This was our one round. I see Sammy Goodwin winning
27:51every round by just dominating each round and knowing exactly what to do on each round
27:59to win the fight.
28:00I reckon he'll go back to dropping his men this round. When he does, that's how it's
28:01going to go. Nice and fast. We lift him, we pass our hand, and our head moves with him.
28:02He hasn't done much. He hasn't done anything. He's reading us.
28:03Well, Cesar Varga is up and ready to rumble. Perhaps he senses this fight. He's slipping
28:04away, and maybe he needs to lift his head a little bit more. I don't know. I don't know.
28:11I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
28:20I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
28:26I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
28:32Maybe he needs to lift the intensity. And he strides out to meet Australia's Sam Goodman,
28:42still ranked number one in the world with the IBF, and very eager for something big
28:49to follow on the back of the victory he is chasing here tonight. And the Mad Bunch get
29:00behind their man. They wanted to support him in Tokyo in December or January, as it turns
29:07out, as he takes a really strong shot there with a left hand. Varga's had his moment.
29:14Sam Goodman felt that one. Cesar Varga, the Mexican. He's got some pop, this Mexican.
29:20A surprise shot. It got through. Down goes Goodman. Well, it's called a slip, that one.
29:30But Cesar Varga has his moment now. There's damage around the eye. I think it might be
29:40underneath that same eye for Goodman. But worse than that, he was hurt by that shot.
29:49Now he's slipping and sliding as well. And this will take something in terms of composure
29:57and presence of mind and experience from Goodman. Because Cesar Varga has had the moment he's
30:05been chasing, and he wants more of it. Goodman responds well there. Jabbing. Varga just trying
30:18to walk through him now, as blood trickles down the face of Goodman. Defends well to
30:27that, as Goodman. But the confidence of Varga will have improved dramatically. And he gets
30:35caught. Good shot from Goodman. Nice right hand over the top from Sam Goodman. And he
30:44jabs too, as Varga just tries to stalk and walk him down. And for the first time in the
30:50fight, it's Goodman going backwards. When you feel that feeling of seeing your opponent
30:58cut, especially from a punch, and you got him on the retrieve, it's a different momentum
31:05feeling for Cesar Varga to capitalize on this. Well, the complexion of this fight is completely
31:12bust. But Goodman, he rips into the body with his left hand. Here goes the right-handed
31:19Varga, who's on the chase. Good fight now. Goodman comes back, and this is entertaining
31:25stuff. But still worrying stuff, as the heads come together. For the Goodman Cam. Some troubling
31:38rounds for Goodman. Reaches its end. So, the cut is right underneath that eye. That
31:54same eye, the problematic one. And this is what caused it. Oh, that's a good shot. He's
32:05ducking down and away, and that is a really good shot from Varga. Sam blinking immediately.
32:20And he was hurt, no doubt. And as the action continued, he did find himself with his gloves
32:29on the canvas, but the ruling was no knockdown. It's not a bad cut. No, it's in a good position.
32:38Immediately, you'd think, once his head cleared, Sam Goodman would have thought about the damage.
32:46It could be bothering his eye. It's bruised up, and it's swelling up quite quickly. And
32:52it's that eye too. You can tell he's blinked a couple of times. Yeah, certainly the swelling
32:58is there. So, there's damage to that troublesome and problematic eye for Goodman. And we're
33:06in round number nine of ten here, against the very tough Mexican, Cesar Varga, who's
33:12given an outstanding account of himself throughout, but had a big, big round in the eighth. Goodman.
33:22Blinking, and trying to stay composed. His corner just wants to see him popping the jab
33:28away. And he is pushing Varga backwards again, which was not the case in the previous round
33:36when, oh, Goodman scores big with that right hand. Very slippery. It seems that way, they're
33:46both stepping on each other, sliding around the place a little bit. The referee has been
33:52talking about the puddle in the corner of Varga after pretty much every break between
33:59rounds. They stand at the center of the ring and trade, and there's some very nervous moments
34:06in round number eight for Goodman and his team, and his promotional outfit, and everyone
34:13else involved. Have those moments passed, though? Cesar Varga hopes not. Tries to find
34:20a left hook. A right hand gets through as well. Goodman to the body. Varga covering
34:28up, though, and the heads clash. And, well, is there damage here? No more without head.
34:34Don't move without head. Is there damage to the right eye now of Goodman? Let's keep
34:40going. There is. There's a cut for Goodman. Yeah, there is. There's a cut to the right
34:45eye, so the other eye now for Goodman. Varga, I don't think he's cut, but he's the one who's
34:52exploded like he is. Now Goodman comes back, and they do trade, and this fight is opening
35:00up the further we go. Damage to one eye for Goodman, and a cut over the other, and Cesar
35:10Varga continues to press on him. And this will take maturity and composure for the Australian,
35:22because Varga is not here to lay down, and now he knows he has his opportunities. He's
35:29in upper cuts as well, and the blood now starts to appear. Good right hand from Goodman, who
35:34follows with a left hand. Both hands score two for Varga. Wow. Both eyes. Look at the
35:47damage for Goodman. Oh, that's a bad cut too. That's a really bad cut over the other
35:55eye of Sam Goodman. And he just looks plain old disappointed about it. A sigh for Goodman.
36:18He's got three minutes. Oh, the heads hang together, and it opened up that eyebrow of
36:28Goodman. No cut for Varga. And in the corner of Goodman, they say, let him do his job,
36:42and he can have a look after. To the doctor. And you look now, and they're not going to
36:51stop this fight with three minutes to play. But the situation for plenty here at ringside
37:01who are following along, appears to be Sam Goodman needs to stay up and away, because
37:08he appears to be clear on the cards, despite a couple of rounds of real adversity that
37:16have come in the later stages. But who knows what the judges are doing, and who knows what
37:24Cesar Varga has for him as the right hand of Goodman gets through. So whatever happens,
37:40more stitches to come for Goodman. But he's going to work as hard as he can to make sure
37:49that he keeps this very tough Mexican who is just lifting all the time at bay.
38:05Varga pushes forward onto the bloodied Sam Goodman.
38:11Counter shot from Goodman with the right hand.
38:24Varga, he's had some strong rounds late.
38:29Had Goodman hurt from the punch that damaged his left eye.
38:38That's good from Goodman as well. And the mad bunch starts to surge behind him.
38:46Varga tries to find that big left hand off the back of his wild right.
38:52And now he's happy to shove the glove.
38:58As Varga complains about the head of Goodman.
39:01Inside the final minute of this one.
39:12Tangle and holes, and we now have 40 seconds remaining.
39:18Jabbing is Goodman.
39:21Oh, good shot. Right hand from Goodman.
39:25Good job. Making a miss.
39:31Varga says, come here, let's go.
39:34Oh, Goodman does. Doubles up that left hand.
39:42Reaching out, says our Varga, but can't quite find Sam Goodman enough.
39:47A cut, though, is a good one. He tries to find him with a left hook.
39:50And Goodman, he left hooks as well and finishes with a right hand.
39:54Varga over the top, the right hand from Goodman.
39:57As blood trickles down his face.
39:59Well, we've seen a bit of everything here tonight.
40:03And we've seen damage to both eyes for Sam Goodman in the main event as well.
40:08But he had a strong start.
40:11And it'll be left up to the judges to let us know
40:17if all is as it seems.
40:22And he's done enough to win the fight.
40:24But, gee, he had a bit to handle out there, did Sam Goodman?
40:28Yeah, but you know what? He boxed very well.
40:32Used his distance, used the control. I think he did a great job.
40:38He certainly did. Built a strong lead before the trouble came.
40:46You can see, even just looking at Goodman,
40:49as we have a look at some of the highlights of this bout,
40:52you can just see, Tim, the disappointment that he has in his face
40:55that he's cut again and he's got damage to contend with.
40:59It's boxing. You can't exploit what else can you expect.
41:06And you know what? He wasn't getting hit much.
41:09There was one round where he got hit, but besides that round,
41:13he was making it nice and clean.
41:21What did you like about what Sam was able to do most in this fight, Tim?
41:26I just thought the way he made a very good boxer look average.
41:30That's what impressed me the most.
41:32Because this guy, Cesar Vaca, I watched him before,
41:36and he's a talent. And the way he moved around,
41:39his explosiveness, he's very good.
41:43And what Sammy did today was use the jab, controlled him,
41:47and just picked him apart and made him look average.
41:50And that's the shot that did the damage.
41:52That's the shot that really hurt him.
41:54Had him blinking as well afterwards.
41:57So another tick for Goodman is that he could stay composed after that,
42:02that he could lift himself back up and stay in this fight.
42:07And then a cut came as well.
42:09So a bit of everything.
42:11Not as clean as he would have liked, Sam Goodman.
42:18But he's about to hear the scores in this one,
42:24as Cesar Vaca salutes the crowd
42:29after a very impressive performance all round.
42:32Let's go upstairs to Stephen Hale.
