00:00Protects us up at all times, keep it clean, come out boxing.
00:03Here we go.
00:06All right, it's Paige, it's Kasper.
00:08Kasper in the blue with black and gold trim.
00:12Paige in the white and gold trim.
00:15Paige had himself a nice pro career before he put it on pause.
00:1918-3, 15 by knockout.
00:23Also fought Archer Betterbeev early on in his career.
00:26Even though that was a loss in the second round,
00:29I mean, to be in the ring with that guy.
00:32Yeah, he dropped Betterbeev too.
00:34I believe it was like the third round.
00:37So, Paige, see how long it takes him to catch that rhythm
00:42as you were alluding to, Gabe.
00:44You know, being out that long, eight years.
00:49As Kasper goes down to the body.
00:51Paige said this is the first time his wife, now wife,
01:04has ever dealt with a fight week and actually seen him fight.
01:09But prior to that, did not have to deal with that.
01:15Said he is a little bit nervous about ring rust.
01:17It's been a while.
01:20As he uses the jab, comes forward with the right hand.
01:24And I believe Paige was a super middleweight when he stopped.
01:29Yep.
01:32And this fight's at cruiserweight.
01:34Cruiserweight.
01:35Big difference.
01:36And both men tied up.
01:42Said he trains for knockouts.
01:45But Kasper, on the other hand, you know, he has been active.
01:49I mean, he fought just this past April.
01:51Won a decision in March.
01:53Right hand by Paige.
01:56Followed it up with the left hook.
01:57Kasper trying to smother Paige.
02:00To stop the momentum here.
02:02And now Paige pressing Kasper in the corner.
02:10But Kasper doing a decent job trying to limit Paige.
02:17And now they reset.
02:24Good right hand from Kasper.
02:26Catches Paige there.
02:28Paige laughs it off.
02:30And a huge right hand from Kasper.
02:36Knocking Paige back.
02:38And you know, when you've been out of the ring for a long time,
02:42shots like that can affect you.
02:45Because you're not used to taking shots.
02:46Especially with 10-ounce gloves.
02:49You know, you're sparring for this fight.
02:51But those are 16-ounce gloves and headgear.
02:54And you have to kind of rebuild that punch resistance.
03:00You know, when you've been out of the ring for that long.
03:03Absolutely.
03:06Overhand right connects.
03:08One thing I loved about, you know, meeting Paige and talking with him.
03:11You know, he's very honest.
03:12He wasn't, you know, as he gets caught with that left hook by Kasper there.
03:16He's very honest.
03:17He said, you know, I am a little bit nervous just about fighting and the ring rust.
03:22But, you know, he has been looking forward to it.
03:25He said it's a good nervous energy.
03:30That is the end of round one.
03:31And here we take a look at some of the highlights.
03:59There was that overhand right by Paige.
04:03Trying to use some of the power and bully Kasper in the corner a bit.
04:08But Kasper did a really good job at weathering that storm.
04:11Yeah.
04:11And Kasper landed some nice good shots right here.
04:14Short right hands.
04:15They're legal shots.
04:16You know, it's a free hand.
04:17Let it go.
04:19You know, Paige is just looking.
04:20He's looking a bit sloppy.
04:22You know, a bit off rhythm.
04:27Now both men are ready.
04:29And as this fight progresses, another thing to watch for is, you know, the cardio of Paige.
04:35Yeah.
04:35You know, it certainly can train and be, feel like you're in shape.
04:42But it's all totally different beasts actually going through the fight.
04:47That gas tank can get zapped quickly.
04:50Now a good shot to the body by Kasper.
04:53And Paige takes a right hand from Kasper.
05:02Now Kasper.
05:04A little bit of feints out there.
05:07And, you know, Paige never fought in this weight class, you know, cruiserweight.
05:10So he doesn't have the mobility, you know, the quickness to slip and roll shots.
05:16He's getting hit flush with body shots and quick jabs.
05:19Good.
05:22Stiff jab by Paige as he pushes Kasper back a bit.
05:27Now comes forward with that left hook.
05:30And now a left hook connects for Paige as Kasper brushes it off.
05:39Yeah.
05:39And you can see that Paige is trying to land that counter right.
05:43But when he pulls the trigger, he's just like a second too late.
05:46That left hook knocks Kasper back a bit.
05:51But now Kasper presses forward.
05:55As Paige kind of tosses him to the side now.
06:07A couple of jabs there from Kasper.
06:09Another straight right by Paige, but countered beautifully from Kasper there.
06:20Yeah, that was a nice quick right hand left hook by Kasper.
06:27And now Paige reaching with the jab, going to the body of Kasper.
06:36Now both men clinched up.
06:40And now Paige trying to deliver some short right hands as they're tied up.
06:50Kasper looking at referee Jacob Beha up the back of the head.
06:55And now a straight right connects for Kasper.
06:59That's a nice short right uppercut by Kasper.
07:01Followed up with a right hook.
07:04You know, he's just hitting Paige with short, quick shots.
07:07And Paige is just a little too sloppy, not giving himself enough range to land shots.
07:13He should just, right now, Paige should just try to establish a jab.
07:17You know, once you get the jab going, then let other shots go.
07:20As he's diving in, that's just sloppy.
07:26Yeah, and it seems like Paige is looking for that big shot.
07:29You know, he's fighting close to home and wants to put on an impressive victory.
07:33But, you know, you got to build up to that as Brown is in the books.
07:43Wayалась.
07:54Okay.
07:55We don't want it.
07:57We don't want it.
08:00Oh, we don't want it.
08:03Oh.
08:05We don't want it.
08:10Right here
08:16Some of the highlights, Gabe
08:17Yeah, Casper is just diving in
08:20Hits him with a right to the body
08:22And a quick right hand up top
08:24And Paige is just off balance
08:27Not really finding rhythm
08:29Or a chance to throw a counter
08:31Paige
08:39Very familiar with fighting here in Wichita
08:43Has had 12 pro fights here
08:46He's gone 11-1
08:48So it's always worked out well for him
08:52But never been in a situation like this
08:55With this long of a layoff between fights
08:58So can certainly see the rust from Paige
09:02But very much in this still
09:05Casper comes in with that right hand
09:14Paige tries to go underneath
09:15Counter right by Paige
09:19As both men
09:21Alongside in the ropes
09:23Now Paige trying to catch Casper with the left hook
09:36And when Paige sees the right hand
09:39It's just, you know, it's too slow once he throws it
09:41And there's really no steam on the shot
09:44I like to see him just, you know, try to get that jab going
09:48Now Casper down to the body of Paige
10:01Paige tries to come upstairs
10:07Good double jab there from Casper
10:12Paige tries to lunge forward with that overhand right again
10:19But again, out of range
10:21Casper seems confident
10:28You know, for
10:30As he eats that right hand by Paige
10:33As Paige starting to build some confidence here
10:35In round three
10:37And Paige was able to land that
10:40Because he didn't smother himself
10:41He kept his distance
10:43And he threw them shots from
10:44From the right angle
10:47Now Paige
10:53Tied up with Casper
10:55As Casper comes forward
10:57And counters with the straight jab
10:59Paige is having a better round
11:02And I think it's because he's not smothering himself down
11:04Well, I think Paige just needs the box
11:06Yeah
11:06You know, he
11:07I think he's been trying to
11:10Kind of brawl his way
11:11Score knockout
11:12And that's not the recipe so far
11:16Yeah, he's more effective from this distance right here
11:20Just jabbing and taking his time
11:22Not really forcing the issue
11:23This is a better round for Paige
11:27Casper comes forward with the jab
11:30As he connects on Paige
11:33Paige
11:33Tied up though with Casper now
11:36Good combination there from Paige
11:39Lands the right hand
11:41Now
11:43Again, both men tied up
11:45Paige trying to connect on that right hand
11:54Back to the body
11:57That's the end of round three
12:01That's the end of round three
12:01Excellent
12:10Than tempt the edge
12:11I can't believe you're too close
12:12Don't you cry no more
12:14Take a look at some of the highlights.
12:43As you were saying, Gabe, a better round for Paige.
12:45Yeah.
12:46Kept his distance, didn't smother himself, did some nice right-hand counters.
12:50Got the jab going.
12:51See right there, that's good.
12:53Not smothering himself, just throwing from the right distance.
12:58He was able to connect on the right hand, and he just has to be careful not to try to
13:05make this a brawl if he continues to use the boxing skills and stay on that outside.
13:13He should be able to outpoint Casper.
13:17As Casper comes forward, doubles up the jab there.
13:23Round four.
13:32Casper trying to go target the body.
13:34Now a straight right just missed, followed it up at the left hook from Paige as he backs
13:45Casper up.
13:45Connects on the big left hook now.
13:47Overhand right connects for Paige.
14:00It's like Paige sees those.
14:02He sees the holes.
14:03Exactly.
14:05It's just taking him a couple of rounds to kind of catch that rhythm.
14:08And a good jab answered by Casper.
14:14Followed it up with the right hand.
14:16Straight right hand.
14:19As Paige is kind of shoved to the ground a bit, but I certainly believe that shot connected
14:24by Casper.
14:25Yeah, yeah.
14:25He felt that shot.
14:26So Paige certainly has to be careful.
14:36Right here, Paige is just waiting for Casper to commit so he can counter.
14:40See, he tried it there.
14:43Both men, you can see a little bit, steps slow.
14:46So we have, and I think the one with more gas in the tank is Paige.
15:01Casper looking for the angles.
15:03Paige, though, still.
15:04Yeah, he's looking for that counter shot.
15:06Tried it right there with the hook right hand.
15:09Left hook connected for Casper there.
15:12As Paige ties up, Casper.
15:17Casper's had his moments as well.
15:21He's been able to land a couple of shots on Paige.
15:27Now Paige back to the body.
15:31Both men tied up.
15:39Paige backs away as Casper lunges forward.
15:43See, what I like to see from Paige in these moments right here where he's trying to look
15:48for that counter, at least jab in between.
15:51Even if it's a jab, you don't want to land.
15:52Just keep the jab busy.
15:54Short right hand connected by Casper there as they were tied up.
15:59Casper going to the body.
16:03Now Paige with the jab as gets the warning from Jigabeja.
16:08Round comes to an end.
16:10Round comes to an end.
16:10It is white, it is white, it is white, it is white.
16:40Right here's some of the highlights we have right here you see Paige looking for that left hook counter.
16:55It landed the first time.
16:57That was a nice quick right sneaky hand by Casper.
17:04Casper some short shots and there is that short right hand in the clinch.
17:09It was able to land flush on the chin of Paige by Casper.
17:14So both men with their moments still a very tight fight thus far.
17:19No, for sure.
17:22Short right hand connected by Casper. Caught Paige on the chin.
17:29And referee Jacob Bia said it was Casper shoved Paige to the ground.
17:35But again, I thought that right hand continues to connect there as you're seeing again, Gabe.
17:40Yeah, he's spilling those right hands.
17:44Cause you know, you can tell that Paige doesn't have his, you know, his feet are not solid.
17:50And if you're Casper, you just maybe want to back away after one of those big shots.
17:55Cause I do think Paige is kind of leaning on Casper there to prevent the knockdown.
18:01Yup.
18:02You know, Paige has never fought at this weight class.
18:07So, you know, the legs are not as strong as when he fought in the light heavy super middle division.
18:17Casper starting to build some momentum here in round five.
18:23Here from the corner of Casper saying he's getting tired.
18:26Another uppercut lands for Casper as Paige is holding on.
18:30Short little uppercut by Casper there.
18:36Page doing a lot of holding in this fifth round.
18:43This is what I was wondering, how is the gas tank as we continue to get deeper into this fight?
18:57Now Casper comes forward.
19:00Paige lands a right hand.
19:04As he backs out from Casper.
19:06A huge right hand.
19:07Knots the mouthpiece out of Paige.
19:13Now Paige trying to press along Casper.
19:16As referee Jacob Eha has to get the mouthpiece.
19:23Go to the corner of Paige.
19:26This could probably help Paige a bit, Gabe.
19:29Yeah, give him some time to recover.
19:33Now they're back.
19:38Resume the action.
19:41Less than a minute to go here in round five.
19:44Solid jab work from Casper.
19:49Another straight left by Paige as he ties up with Casper again.
20:01Now Paige trying to hold on to Casper there.
20:06Looked like he was about to go down again.
20:10And now Casper eats the short left hook from Paige.
20:17Paige trying to get underneath Casper.
20:20Final ten of round five.
20:30Both men tied up.
20:35Difficult round for either man to gain any sort of momentum.
20:38Yeah, that was a sloppy round.
20:39Yeah.
20:40That was a sloppy round.
20:41That was a sloppy round.
20:43One more.
20:44One more.
20:45One more.
20:46One more.
20:50Take a look at some of the highlights from round five.
20:54Yeah, Casper lands a good right hand, doubling it up with the right hand too.
21:13You know, it was sloppy.
21:14It was a toss up round.
21:16You know, Casper might have pulled it off with being more busy.
21:23He also knocked out the mouthpiece of Paige.
21:26How would you have this score through five so far, Dave?
21:29It's been, you know, back and forth.
21:31Yeah.
21:32I mean, I think it's, I think this round is very important for either fighter.
21:38So, it's a very tight fight.
21:41But if anyone really needs this round, I think it's more Paige.
21:46Final round.
21:48Casper trying to utilize the jab.
21:52This fight very well could be hanging in the balance here in this final round.
21:57Casper comes forward, knocks Paige back with a good one too.
22:02Overhand right connected for Paige there.
22:15And now Casper goes to the body, follows it upstairs with the left hook.
22:20Casper's doing good.
22:21He's keeping the distance, popping that jab.
22:24Going to the body too with the left hook.
22:26Yeah, it seems like the energy levels for Casper are increasing here in this final round.
22:31Yeah, it looks like he caught a second wind.
22:32Nice short uppercut.
22:38And I think Paige just makes it worse for himself when he smothers himself and kind of makes it like an inside fight.
22:43He's better off staying in the outside.
22:45He eats that straight right from Casper.
22:48As Paige, once again, tied up.
22:52I think Paige's best moments was when he was boxing on the outside.
22:56Yeah.
23:01And now Casper fighting on the inside, delivering some short shots to Paige as Paige kind of shoves him off.
23:13Nice right hand.
23:14Another straight right hand knocking Paige back.
23:18And it's happened several times throughout this one by Casper.
23:28Casper.
23:30Now, another jab to the body.
23:34Coaching the final minute.
23:40Right hand just missed by Casper going to the body.
23:44As Paige once again ties up with Casper.
23:55And again, Paige trying to almost like wrestle his way inside with Casper.
24:02He's trying to deliver that uppercut.
24:15Now Casper backs away.
24:17Presses forward with the jab.
24:19And has Paige even two uppercuts in a row.
24:23Nice short shots right there by Casper.
24:25You know.
24:26You know, Paige is...
24:27He's pressing...
24:28He's pressing the action.
24:29He's coming forward.
24:30But it's sloppy where Casper's throwing counters.
24:33And then when he moves forward, he's, you know, snapping Paige's head back.
24:38With quick...
24:39With quick shots.
24:40And that does it.
24:42We will now have to wait and see what the judges' scorecards have to say.
24:49You see a little bit of a mouse underneath the right eye of Paige.
25:04And, you know, honestly, Gabe, I think it might have just been the difference was Casper's active.
25:13Paige wasn't, you know.
25:15Absolutely.
25:16You can tell Paige is not in tip-top shape.
25:19You know, his legs are not under him.
25:21His weight is high.
25:22You know, and the timing was off.
25:26And, you know...
25:27You don't know.
25:28Casper's not a world beater.
25:29He's eight and eleven and two.
25:31But you can see, you know, with two fights over the last few months, he's been active.
25:36He knows what it's like to be in the ring.
25:38Yeah.
25:39And...
25:40And you saw it there.
25:41Yeah, and he caught his second win.
25:42And when he caught his second win, his jab got busy.
25:45You know, he was landing quick counter shots.
25:48And I think his second win was probably like around the fourth round.
25:50So, it'll be interesting to see how the judges see this one.
26:00And I believe we have the scorecards in hand.
26:05So, let's send it up to our announcer, Lupe Contreras, for the official decision.
26:11Ladies and gentlemen, we're going all six rounds inside the GCC ring.
26:16We consult the official scorecard to determine a winner.
26:20Judges Sinnott and Sutherland turn in identical scores of 59 to 55.
26:26And Judge Zabilba scores about 58 to 56.
26:30All in favor of the winner by way of unanimous decision.
26:35Aaron...
26:37Ghostmas...
26:40Casper!
26:42Here...
26:43Here...
26:48Here...
26:49Here
