00:00 Five fans, we are ready for our main event of the evening,
00:05 live on Fight Zamek Artikyshev
00:09 against the hometown favorites, Ryan "The Bruiser" Wozniacki.
00:14 Manny Montiel.
00:15 - If you need to go to the washroom, wait a little bit.
00:19 - You should have already been.
00:20 - You should have already been, correct.
00:22 This is not the time to take a snack break.
00:24 Ladies and gentlemen, buckle up.
00:27 She's about to get rowdy.
00:29 - Round one underway.
00:31 Ryan Wozniacki starting purposely behind the jab.
00:34 You can see the concern in Artikyshev's eyes
00:38 from the outset.
00:39 - Well, they've sparred several rounds,
00:42 so this is not really round one for them.
00:46 They've already felt each other out, so to speak.
00:48 - I know a couple people around, Ryan Wozniacki,
00:53 especially from Freelance Promotions,
00:54 felt like this could be a perfect opportunity
00:56 for Ryan to box and show his boxing skills.
01:00 However, Zamik is not to be taken lightly.
01:04 - No, well, look, let's face it.
01:06 The original opponent, that was the plan.
01:08 They chose an opponent that he could outbox
01:10 and look good against.
01:12 This is a much heavier opponent.
01:14 The game plan needs to change a little bit.
01:16 - Showing some good head movements thus far, Ryan Wozniacki.
01:23 The crowd is insane here.
01:24 (crowd chattering)
01:27 And we're having trouble hearing each other.
01:30 That's to be expected with a Ryan Wozniacki fan base.
01:36 A lively bunch indeed.
01:39 - First time in headlining in Halifax.
01:42 It's obviously a four-hour drive away from Cape Breton.
01:45 However, the fans have turned up tonight.
01:47 - It's a small island after all.
01:52 - There is some empty seats in the crowd,
01:55 but those who are here tonight
01:56 have been making a lot of noise.
01:58 - Halfway through the first round here.
02:02 - Nice right hand downstairs and a slip from Ryan.
02:06 Again, he looks very comfortable.
02:07 From what I'm hearing, Manny,
02:08 I think Ryan Wozniacki's had the best camp of his career.
02:10 They say that every time,
02:12 but I actually believe that to be the case this fight.
02:14 - Well, the story here is that Ryan's been coming
02:17 into his own, and every time he's been out in the ring,
02:20 he's progressed.
02:21 So it's fair for us to be on that assumption right now.
02:25 Right now, they're still figuring each other out,
02:34 so to speak.
02:35 Zemig's kind of trying to lull him into a heavy shot.
02:38 Ryan's not gonna fall for it.
02:41 - It's changing now.
02:43 I feel this fight is gonna open up momentarily.
02:45 Less than a minute left in the first round.
02:48 Ryan Wozniacki's been in control of the action, of course.
02:52 And it's been controlled so far.
02:54 We've always wondered at Ryan Wozniacki,
02:57 how long can he stay composed?
02:59 How long can he stick to Stevie Bailey's plan?
03:01 - This is the same referee from the Rushton fight.
03:07 Hopefully he's not gonna have as much work.
03:09 - Ooh, big right hand.
03:11 - He's on the ropes on top of us here.
03:13 - He got a little spittle on me there.
03:15 Thank you, Ryan.
03:16 (thudding)
03:19 Ooh.
03:20 Ooh.
03:21 - Good job downstairs by Ryan Wozniacki.
03:24 Stabbing to the body of Artik Ishev.
03:27 - That left hook to the body was a doozy.
03:29 - Good round by Ryan Wozniacki.
03:33 Ladies and gentlemen, I would just like to thank
03:47 Dave Thibodaux and his crew behind the scenes.
03:50 (crowd cheering)
03:52 Making sure the show's going to be live
03:55 with the help of Fight TV.
03:56 - If this goes off and we actually make it on air
04:04 and the night goes well, it's because of Dave.
04:07 Looking at the replay here.
04:18 - The mid can take a punch though.
04:20 Ryan might have to rinse and repeat on that motion
04:25 quite a few times.
04:26 (bell dinging)
04:30 - Ladies and gentlemen, round two underway.
04:32 Don't forget folks at home to go follow Manny Montreal
04:35 @MannyMontreal on all your social media platforms.
04:38 Instagram, Facebook, Twitter.
04:41 Did you do TikTok, Manny?
04:42 - I'm on TikTok.
04:43 I'm on Rumble.
04:44 - He's on Rumble.
04:46 He's on everything.
04:48 If there's a platform, I've created an account.
04:50 Oh, big right hand from Zivic.
04:53 - Big shot by Atikishiev.
04:55 Ryan, no stranger to taking a shot to land one.
05:00 That is a mantra I know he's been working on
05:04 as he goes downstairs and rolls off the right hand
05:07 of Atikishiev.
05:08 - Staying alert on his defense.
05:11 That little punch that got in reminded him of that fact.
05:14 - We know he's got scar tissue, Ryan.
05:17 - He's got scar tissue.
05:19 - Short little step back will make all the difference though.
05:21 Right?
05:22 As long as he stays on top of it.
05:24 (crowd cheering)
05:27 (grunting)
05:30 - Big shot downstairs.
05:32 I just took my headset off for a moment
05:34 to really appreciate the sound of the punches
05:36 from these heavyweights.
05:37 - That sounded like a baseball bat hitting a mattress.
05:46 - Atikishiev is equipping himself quite well
05:48 against the WBC number eight cruiserweight, Ryan Rozicki.
05:53 He's ranked number 11 by the WBA,
05:55 number 11 by the WBO, and number nine by the IBF, man.
05:58 He's in the mix there for world title shots
06:00 in every organization.
06:01 Whether he gets those opportunities, I don't know.
06:05 Nobody across the planet is gonna be in any rush
06:08 to fight Ryan Rozicki, unless they have to.
06:11 Nice way, head movement by Ryan.
06:13 - I'm really hoping there's no bridgeweights out there
06:15 claiming to be the best in the world.
06:17 I know Badou Jack has a belt right now,
06:22 but there shouldn't be a boxer
06:24 in the cruiserweight division
06:25 that should get comfortable with saying that,
06:27 knowing that Ryan Rozicki's walking on two legs.
06:29 - I think Ryan Rozicki may be the toughest man in Canada.
06:34 - He's definitely up there.
06:37 I'd put him up there with George Larratt.
06:40 (crowd cheering)
06:43 - Good hooks to the body, pushing the bigger man back.
06:54 No easy feat if you take into account
06:58 that Zamig's usually weighing about 240.
07:02 - Nice little left hook by Ryan Rozicki.
07:04 Uppercut answered by Antafisev.
07:09 - Oh, that right hand.
07:11 - Stumbles the legs of Antafisev.
07:14 - Still attacking, still on his.
07:16 - He may be on the brink of a stoppage here, folks.
07:20 Antafisev covering up on the ropes.
07:22 - That left hook got in.
07:23 - 10 seconds left in the round.
07:26 He may be able to see the end of this second round.
07:28 - Woo!
07:31 - Hook answered by Antafisev.
07:32 Both men trade left hooks.
07:33 Crowds have come, promoted by Antafisev, his feet.
07:39 Kell Brooks going nuts ringside.
07:41 - I felt the gush of air when the crowd let loose.
07:48 Kell Brooks seems to be enjoying himself tonight.
07:54 Who would have thought Nova Scotia would be treated
07:58 to a world champ of this caliber?
08:00 - Special K in the building
08:03 with his good friend Stainless Stevie.
08:08 - I hope he's having a good time in Nova Scotia.
08:11 I hope the fans are showing him a good time.
08:13 We're definitely having a good time.
08:17 - Moments away from round three here, folks.
08:23 All this action brought to you tonight
08:26 by Daniel Orf's Reliance Promotions
08:29 in association with Fight.
08:31 Give a shout out to AK Media.
08:36 - I'm gonna be a little bit nervous
08:37 about this bit around the arena tonight.
08:41 Nice short left hook by Artik Ishev.
08:43 That's a good and right hand to the body by Ryan Rozicki.
08:47 - We're not out of the woods yet, folks.
08:51 Zamig's a durable guy for a reason.
08:53 - We spoke just before this fight, Manny,
08:57 about the fact that Zamig had just gone eight rounds
08:59 with Alexis Barrier.
09:00 If Ryan Rozicki gets him out of there,
09:02 how big of a statement is that?
09:04 - Well, let's put it out there.
09:05 Zamig has undefeated heavyweight from Quebec at the moment.
09:09 - Nice hook job.
09:10 - And honestly, considering the weight difference,
09:14 'cause Ryan Rozicki's supposed to be a cruiserweight.
09:18 If he puts away Zamig in better fashion...
09:22 - Might be real low blow here, but he saw that good.
09:27 As Ryan Rozicki mounts an attack again.
09:29 Ian Bridgman, the referee,
09:31 called that shot on the beltline.
09:33 Acceptable.
09:35 - As Zamig, to his credit,
09:36 was able to cover up and survive.
09:39 - Ryan's gonna go downstairs again in a minute here.
09:41 These body shots are paying dividends for Ryan Rozicki.
09:44 Ian Bridgman taking a close look.
09:47 - Referee, it's over!
09:49 Ian Bridgman steps in and stops the contest.
09:52 Ian Bridgman's under some serious accusations
09:59 from a ticket-sheriff's coach.
10:02 Not happy with the stoppage.
10:04 (crowd cheering)
10:07 - We've often seen controversy in these fights.
10:08 - Zamig's corner seems a little upset, but I mean...
10:12 - Last time we were here, Manny Montiol,
10:13 we were upset that the referee didn't stop the fight.
10:15 - That is right.
10:16 - So we cannot be too critical tonight
10:17 of referee Ian Bridgman.
10:19 - We are not playing.
10:21 This is not a game.
10:23 These gentlemen have to go home and live life.
10:26 He's got a report to work on Monday morning.
10:30 (crowd cheering)
10:34 - I'd like to thank him for coming and saving this event
10:39 on short notice.
10:40 I'm sure Ryan will be here today.
10:42 That one I speak to in a moment.
10:44 Olivier, the original opponent, did the...
10:48 Let's face it, Canada and France don't have
10:51 a smooth relationship since World War II.
10:53 We know what they're about,
10:56 and Olivier just represented that.
10:58 Zamig may have lost his fight,
11:00 Takashev may have lost the fight,
11:01 but he definitely earned the respect of the fight fan.
11:04 - Always going to be a tough challenge
11:07 for Zamig Atikishev.
11:09 Maybe he could have been afforded a few more moments,
11:12 but that fight was only going one way.
11:14 Once that body shot had landed on the belt line,
11:16 you could see the life drained from Atikishev.
11:19 - That's like going to a horror movie,
11:22 walking out and complaining
11:24 there wasn't enough blood and guts.
11:27 We've got Halloween here, Friday the 13th level of damage.
11:32 We gotta take into account the cause and effects
11:39 that come at the end of the day from all this.
11:41 - I think we're headed over to Jeremiah Gallegos momentarily
11:47 for the official announcement of what goes down
11:50 as yet another stoppage victory for Ryan Rosicky.
11:53 We're moving to 18 and one with that victory here tonight.

12:04 (rock music)
12:07 (rock music)
12:09 - Ladies and gentlemen,
12:36 here from the forum at Halifax, Nova Scotia,
12:41 our referee, Ian Brinkman, puts a wave to this contest.
12:46 The official time, 114, round three, to the winner by TK.
12:51 The Farty Bride of Nova Scotia,
12:54 Ryan "The Bruiser" Rosicky!
12:59 (crowd cheering)
