01:08white trunks with red trim.
01:10He stands five feet, seven inches tall.
01:12He weighed in at 134.8 pounds.
01:16Tonight, he enters the ring with a perfect, undefeated professional record of 18 victories,
01:24opposite no defeats, with 12 of those wins coming by way of knockout.
01:30And he fights out of San Antonio, Texas.
01:33He is the WBA International Lightweight Champion, and he is Kid Austin Floyd Schofield.
01:49Our referee in charge, when the bell rings, Gerard White.
01:53Gentlemen, this is for the WBA Continental Lightweight Championship.
02:00We went over the rules in the dressing room.
02:02We all know what we expect out of each other, a good, strong, clean fight.
02:06Beltline's good here.
02:07Beltline's good here.
02:08Let's go to work.
02:09Let's get it.
02:10Floyd Schofield likes to jump out of the gates early.
02:14Half of his 18 wins have come in the first two rounds.
02:18As for Tevin Farmer, he likes to cook his food a little bit.
02:21Known as a defensive first fighter a few years ago, but recently, Antonio, he's turned up the offense
02:28and was going toe-to-toe with William Zepeda in his last two fights.
02:33A phenomenal matchup here.
02:35Which way is it going to go?
02:38We're about to find out.
02:40Schofield in the white gloves, Tevin Farmer in the yellow.
02:47And jump, Todd, is the operative word with Floyd Schofield.
02:50One of his preferred weapons is kind of that leaping hook that he likes to throw with the left hand.
02:56It's causing some problems.
02:57You see some of the scars that are on his face.
02:59Those cuts have been opened up often because he gets a little bit too risky with those hooks.
03:08Nice right hand moving in quick.
03:10Tevin Farmer after his last fight.
03:14Oh, got caught quick with a right hand!
03:17Just like that!
03:20That was a good combination.
03:21One, two.
03:22Eight!
03:23You okay?
03:24The hand speed and the power of Floyd Schofield.
03:28Already a difference maker in this fight.
03:30It's Floyd Schofield about to take off to super stardom.
03:34If he can blast out Farmer here in round one!
03:36And he's down again!
03:37It's over.
03:38That was a devastating combination.
03:41He didn't load up.
03:42Man, kid Schofield also looked good tonight.
03:45And Tevin Farmer is nodding his head saying, I'm all right.
03:49He is not all right.
03:50He is on shaky legs.
03:51This fight is a couple of punches away from being finished.
03:54William Zepeda couldn't do the job.
03:56Floyd Schofield did!
03:59He's not a kid!
04:00He's a contender!
04:03Yes!
04:03Yes!
04:06That was the most significant fight of Floyd Schofield's career.
04:10A fight that his own promoters weren't sure coming in.
04:15Then he had the skill set to win.
04:17He had that and then some.
04:19That was a statement win by Floyd Schofield.
04:22Tank Davis, are you watching?
04:26Shakur Stevenson, are you watching?
04:29Kid Austin is on the scene and looking mean.
04:32And nobody's happier than his father.
04:36And the most important thing, I think, he didn't get hit with nothing.
04:39He was under control the whole time.
04:41And he let those combinations flow.
04:43A Schofield this dangerous?
04:46Lightweight division just got high.
04:48Well, hey, listen, Chris.
04:49We have laughed out loud at the things his father has said.
04:53He's saying, my son's going to be the greatest of all time.
04:56I'm not saying we're at that level.
04:57But after what you just saw right there,
04:59he did to Tevin Farmer, what said you now about his future?
05:03He just proved that he is on a championship level.
05:07Tevin Farmer was life and death with Raymond Murataya three fights ago.
05:13He was right there.
05:14Could have beaten William Zepeda in that first fight in Saudi Arabia.
05:18Tevin Farmer is a championship level opponent.
05:21And Floyd Schofield Jr.
05:23Dismantled him inside of one round.
05:26You want to talk about what's next?
05:27How about the winner of Shakur against Zepeda?
05:30Floyd Schofield tonight just earned that opportunity.
05:33And look at the emotion in the corner of Floyd Schofield.
05:37Only 22 years of age.
05:40Tears flowing.
05:42Chris, he took a lot of verbal abuse from fans who mocked him for pulling out of that fight.
05:46They called him scared.
05:47They thought he didn't want the smoke.
05:48I think he, I don't think they want his smoke anymore.
05:52Man, you know, when you have controlled power, everyone can say they got power.
05:56But power is worthless if you can't land it.
05:59Man, he threw every punch.
06:01He might have landed every punch he threw tonight.
06:03I'm curious to see what comes about.
06:05He took an astonishing beating on social media in the aftermath of the Shakur Stevenson withdrawal.
06:14He and his father.
06:15A lot of critics of him.
06:16Those critics are gone.
06:18Antonio, straight right hand.
06:19One, two.
06:19Set it up.
06:20And it was beautiful timing.
06:23He wasn't too close.
06:24Perfect distance.
06:27Schofield been to school, man.
06:28You can see it.
06:29He's developing.
06:32And it looked like he didn't even load up on these shots.
06:34Relax.
06:35Relax.
06:36Relax.
06:37He hasn't looked that polished in his fights before, even when he knocked guys out.
06:42Look, by his own admission, he had a C-level performance his last time out against Rene Teleski.
06:49This is a kid that's been in the gym.
06:52This is a kid that's getting better.
06:54And this is a kid that just wiped out a guy that championship-level opponents have not been able to beat like this.
07:00And I didn't see him miss one punch.
07:03That's accuracy.
07:04Look, not one punch.
07:06And, Chris, not to diminish anything that Schofield just did, but you've got to wonder how much those two wars with Zepeda took out of Tevin Farmer.
07:16Well, we didn't have a chance to kind of get into this, but the turnaround of 91 days.
07:21I asked Tevin Farmer that during the fighter meeting.
07:23He said, hey, man, this is real fast.
07:25You just went 22 rounds with one of the biggest punchers at 135.
07:30Might have been too much for Tevin Farmer, but so was Floyd Schofield.
07:33Let's go to Big Moe.
07:39Ladies and gentlemen, referee Gerard White calls a stop to this contest at 1 minute, 18 seconds of the very first round.
07:50Declaring your winner by knockout.
07:54And now the WNBA Continental Lightweight Champion and still undefeated, Floyd Kidd Austin Schofield.
08:09Let's go to Big Moe.
