00:09 - [speaking Spanish]
00:12 - [speaking Spanish]
00:15 - 10 rounds, super featherweight fight,
00:18 our main event of the evening
00:21 from here inside the Kissimmee Civic Center.
00:25 Orlando Gonzalez-Ramiro Ciseno.
00:28 [crowd shouting]
00:31 - [speaking Spanish]
00:34 [bell dings]
00:35 - Here we go.
00:36 - It's time to fight.
00:38 Gonzalez in the black-red
00:42 with a little bit of white on his trunks,
00:45 black and gold for Cisena.
00:47 Southpaw Gonzalez, 20 victories, 10 finishes.
00:52 Cisena, the Mexican, 16 wins, 13 finishes.
00:57 Another Southpaw Orthodox matchup.
01:02 [crowd shouting]
01:05 - As I mentioned at the top of the show,
01:08 Gonzalez has that boxing
01:09 where he'll try to smoothly come in and out.
01:12 Cisena will try to disrupt that with some pressure.
01:15 - Yeah, we're gonna see.
01:16 Gonzalez is definitely the more athletic
01:18 and fluid of the two.
01:19 Cisena is more of a come-forward banger.
01:23 - Yeah, and interestingly, Gonzalez,
01:27 despite having that talent,
01:28 he does get aggressive with his boxing.
01:31 Like I said, get inside and bang right into the body at times.
01:36 - During our fighter meetings yesterday,
01:38 both competitors talked about
01:40 that they were mentally prepared
01:43 for a very tough and gritty battle.
01:45 So a lot of mutual respect in this main event of the evening.
01:50 [crowd shouting]
01:53 Gonzalez has had fights in his native country, Puerto Rico,
02:03 the Dominican Republic, and here in the U.S.
02:07 This is his second straight fight in Central Florida.
02:12 - I can see already that Cisena has some experience
02:15 with Southpaws.
02:16 He's throwing his jab a little bit different.
02:18 He's throwing hooks over the top.
02:20 He's not been tentative at all
02:22 dealing with the Southpaw stance.
02:24 - And trying to slowly close that gap.
02:26 He's got Gonzalez up against the ropes now,
02:29 trying to make those little subtle moves.
02:31 - Making that ring smaller and smaller,
02:33 even though this is a pretty small ring to begin with.
02:37 - Trying to finish with that straight left.
02:44 Gonzalez here early in the fight round.
02:47 - In the fight round number one.
02:49 - And that lead-looping hook over the top
02:51 from Cisena is a great move.
02:53 - Oh, and Clash of Heads there. They got to be careful.
02:56 - You can see both of these guys feel like
03:03 they can win the fight.
03:04 - Yeah.
03:05 - You can see the body language is both--
03:07 confident in both of these guys.
03:09 - No B-sides here.
03:11 - We got the A and the other A side
03:13 here in our main event of the evening.
03:17 - 50-50 fights.
03:19 Ultra entertaining.
03:21 That is our mantra here on Pro Box TV.
03:24 - And already there's a little abrasion
03:26 underneath the white eye of Gonzalez
03:28 on the strength of those left hooks over the top,
03:31 which Cisena has landed a couple this round.
03:34 - Ooh. - Good exchange.
03:36 Nothing hit, but that was-- they're both--
03:38 they're both coming close.
03:41 [crowd cheering]
03:43 - Talked about the fact his father is in his corner
03:51 and his cousin, Henry LeBron, as well,
03:56 for Gonzalez, and Cisena, Chris,
03:59 his one setback was in his most recent bout
04:03 against Thomas Matisse.
04:05 He was ahead on the scorecards,
04:07 but was finished in the tenth and final round.
04:09 - Yeah, it was a great fight, and Cisena looked really--
04:12 I was very impressed with what I saw that night,
04:14 'cause Thomas Matisse is a very good fighter.
04:16 He's long, he's strong for the weight class,
04:18 he's a good counterpuncher, but Cisena was giving all
04:20 he could handle and then just got caught at the end,
04:22 and it was a bit controversial,
04:24 but, you know, he thought that the fight
04:26 should not have been stopped, and he should've won the fight.
04:29 - Yeah, and both of these guys have losses, too.
04:31 You know, good fighters, and, you know,
04:33 in Cisena's case, it was controversial.
04:35 In Gonzalez's case, the first loss of his career
04:37 was to Gonzalez, who is now a current world champion.
04:40 - His other loss was to Misael Lopez.
04:42 - Yes, and he went the distance with--
04:44 - Yeah, both of those losses he went the distance with.
04:46 - Yes, and two very good fighters.
04:48 Like you said, Robesey is excellent
04:50 and a current world champion.
04:52 - WBO featherweight world champion
04:55 since April of this year, won title defense
04:57 and a two-time Olympic gold medalist.
05:00 - Yeah, he just made a nice defense
05:02 on the end of the card of the Inouye fight.
05:04 - Yes, and he could be in the running
05:06 to fight to face Inouye in the next year or so.
05:08 I mean, they're both-- they're both the top rank.
05:10 It's a very conceivable future.
05:13 - And a good happen on a Tuesday morning
05:15 halfway around the world. - I don't mind it.
05:17 I don't mind eating breakfast and watching fights.
05:19 - Yeah, it was pretty cool. - Yeah.
05:21 - Text each other, give our opinions.
05:23 We're calling the fight on text.
05:25 You guys are missing out at home.
05:27 - Ooh, good left hook over the top.
05:29 - A nice little right hook counter there
05:31 by Gonzalez as well.
05:34 - But Cesena is starting to close that gap more and more,
05:37 and he's putting that mental pressure on Gonzalez.
05:39 - Yeah, it's like I said for that opening round,
05:41 he's very comfortable with the southpaw position
05:43 and how to fight them. He has a game plan.
05:46 Nice straight left hand there from Gonzalez.
05:48 - And you can see Gonzalez is trying to make his life easier,
05:50 trying to create that space in one way or another,
05:52 but you're not gonna fight Cesena off of you.
05:54 If you're gonna make your life easier,
05:56 you gotta do it in different subtle ways.
05:58 Right now, if you're trying to fight,
06:00 you think you're gonna hit Cesena with some shots
06:02 and leave you alone, that's not gonna happen,
06:04 so you're gonna have to figure things out here.
06:06 Cesena is continuously putting that mental pressure,
06:08 and you can see Gonzalez is sort of
06:10 in a little bit of an antiposition.
06:12 - That was one thing I remember from that fight
06:14 with Cesena and Matisse.
06:16 Cesena had a lot of bravado, a lot of machismo,
06:19 and he was talking in between.
06:21 He was very aggressive. He was walking through shots,
06:23 waving his man in.
06:31 - Just over a minute on the clock in round number two.
06:35 Mike Goldberg, my powerful partners,
06:37 the former two-time world champion of the Magic Band,
06:39 Paulie Malignaggi, former world champion,
06:42 Chris Algieri, great to be with you.
06:45 From Central Florida, we'll be back
06:47 at our world headquarters in two weeks.
06:49 Headlined by the always ultra-entertaining
06:52 Otar Aronosian.
06:54 - Gonzalez is either gonna have to get some respect
06:58 or get very, very slick,
07:00 because Cesena, like you say, champ,
07:02 is closing that distance and putting on a ton of pressure.
07:05 - Yeah, and you're not gonna fight him off.
07:06 Like I said, you gotta do little subtle things.
07:08 You gotta change your levels. You gotta give some feints.
07:10 You gotta, you know, maybe parry his lead gloves
07:12 a little bit, touch him in the lead glove a little bit
07:14 to measure your distance, and then fire some shots.
07:16 You gotta do some subtle things, and he's not doing them.
07:18 Actually, Cesena does them a lot of times.
07:20 Cesena a lot of times gives you that level change feint,
07:22 and it sort of creates a panic situation for Gonzalez
07:25 and puts him in a position to be hit.
07:27 - And Cesena has a better judge of distance.
07:29 - Yeah, and you can see how he's getting Gonzalez missed
07:31 and reach on his way out.
07:32 - And that sneaky left hook, dude.
07:34 I mean, it's-- - I like it.
07:35 - Even when he misses it, you can see how sneaky it is.
07:37 - And again right there at the end of the round, Paul.
07:39 - Yeah, but there Gonzalez counted it well
07:41 with a left cross. - Yeah.

08:34 and 2000 Olympian, the Hall of Famer, Miguel Cotto.
08:39 Round number three, the Southpaw Gonzalez,
08:43 black, red, and white trunks,
08:45 Romero Cesena in the black and gold trunks.
08:49 Gonzalez also has 18-0 Henry LeBron in his corner.
08:52 I saw when he was coming. He just had a win last month.
08:55 - His cousin. - There we go.
08:57 Very, very talented fighter.
09:00 I've called a few of his fights for top-ranked international.
09:04 Ooh, ooh, good exchange.
09:08 Starting to heat up here.
09:10 Round number three. - Good body shot there by Cesena.
09:13 [crowd shouting]
09:18 - Gonzalez with a long left.
09:21 - And you see Cesena, look where his head is,
09:23 right underneath the chin of Gonzalez,
09:25 trying to make him miserable.
09:26 And you get Cesena landed a good left hand,
09:28 but it's not gonna be enough to make Cesena--
09:30 Gonzalez made a good left hand,
09:31 but it's not gonna be enough for Cesena to leave him alone,
09:34 which is gonna mean he's gonna need to land the punches
09:36 plus do the subtle things.
09:37 - Yeah, Cesena mentioned the bravado and the machismo.
09:39 Oh, big left hand. - Good exchange.
09:41 - But the problem is, the more you hit Cesena,
09:43 the more he wants to fight. - Yeah.
09:45 - So if you want to-- you're gonna make it
09:46 this kind of fight where you're gonna only owe him.
09:48 - Ooh, buckle him. - Right hook.
09:51 Check hook caught him.
09:52 - Gonzalez pouring it on here.
09:55 [crowd shouting]
09:57 - I think Gonzalez decided,
09:58 "All right, I'm gonna accept this fight."
09:59 They said, "You want to fight?
10:00 "We're just gonna go at it.
10:01 "This is the way you want to do it,
10:02 and we're just gonna go at it."
10:03 - And both guys in the fighter meeting
10:05 said they expected this type of back.
10:07 - And I think that's smart.
10:08 I had said last round, Gonzalez, the way things were going,
10:10 he's either gonna have to get respect or get very slick.
10:12 He decided to get respect.
10:14 - And that's the thing, Gonzalez,
10:15 I had noticed even in the videos of him,
10:16 he's a boxer, but he likes to be aggressive with his boxing.
10:20 And there, he was able--
10:21 has managed to be able to do it.
10:22 A nice little uppercut there by Cesena.
10:24 Both guys now having a good action-packed round.
10:26 - Yeah, we got a war breaking out in round 3 here.
10:29 - Your typical pro-boxman event.
10:30 - Yep. - You got that right.
10:31 - Right on cue.
10:32 - We got ourselves a fight.
10:34 Oh!
10:35 [crowd shouting]
10:37 - I think Cesena could count the lights on the ceiling
10:39 from that shot and pop this head
10:41 right back like a piss dispenser.
10:44 - Puerto Rico against Mexico.
10:47 Set at the top of the show.
10:49 It will be entertaining.
10:50 So far, the delivery has been outstanding.
10:54 - Is Gonzalez ready for this kind of fight, though?
10:57 'Cause then you see, the more you hit Cesena,
10:59 the more pressure you bring in.
11:00 Are you ready to go with this kind of fight?
11:02 So fights around, he may be winning here,
11:04 but you see who's controlling the ring.
11:05 It's still Cesena.
11:06 - Despite the fact that Gonzalez
11:08 is probably controlling the ring.
11:09 I mean, since then, it's gone in the ring.
11:12 Gonzalez has landed the better shots this round.
11:15 But are you gonna be able to win rounds like this
11:17 continuously for the next seven rounds?
11:19 It is an exhausting way to win rounds.
11:21 - And he's looking very uncomfortable,
11:23 especially these body shots coming in from Cesena.
11:25 [crowd shouting]
11:28 - How about we just make every Pro Box main event
11:32 a Mexican and a Puerto Rican?
11:33 Because they pretty much can't miss fights.
11:35 [bell dings]
11:36 - And a Mexican who, when he gets hit,
11:40 he bites down on the mouthpiece and gets angry.
11:42 I mean, never seen that before, right?
11:44 - You mean a Mexican who's Mexican-ing?
11:46 - Yeah, exactly.
11:47 - You see some mad action here.
11:49 Good combinations there, but good exchanges by both.
11:51 But you see the better-- the shorter punches
11:54 are thrown by Gonzalez.
11:55 So in these exchanges, a lot of times,
11:56 it's Gonzalez who's gonna get the better of them
11:58 as he's the shorter puncher.
11:59 You see it right there with the shorter shot
12:01 with the left hand.
12:02 That's the one he can counter,
12:03 this lights on the ceiling champ.
12:04 - Yeah, there it is. - There it is right there.
12:05 There's the left hand.
12:06 And he gets out there.
12:07 That was a nice little move,
12:08 'cause he used that left cross
12:09 to not just land a good shot,
12:10 but also to slide around.
12:11 And as he's gotta do-- he's gotta do
12:13 these kind of little subtle things
12:14 to buy himself some breaks
12:15 and buy himself some time.
12:17 He won that round,
12:18 but ultimately, it's an exhausting way
12:21 to win rounds.
12:22 And for me, even though for me he won that round,
12:24 he's still not controlling the ring.
12:25 And once you take control of the ring
12:27 is when you're able to at least win rounds
12:29 and be able to pace yourself accordingly.
12:32 Right now, he's gonna win rounds
12:33 the way he just won them.
12:34 It's gonna be an exhausting fight.
12:36 Is he ready to do that, though?
12:37 - Yeah, and like you said,
12:38 even though Cesena did not win that round,
12:40 he actually looked more comfortable
12:41 in that round.
12:43 - Round number four, guys.
12:46 The pace was there, right, Chris?
12:47 - Yep.
12:50 - So more of the same from Gonzalez?
12:53 - Well, he's gotta keep that distance.
12:54 He's gotta--like the champ said,
12:56 he's gotta use those pot shots
12:58 to get--to make an escape route,
13:00 because when Cesena's putting that pressure
13:02 and putting him in the corners,
13:03 that's not the place he wants to be.
13:04 He's not comfortable there
13:05 with his back against the ropes.
13:07 - Yeah.
13:09 - See that little feint there by Cesena.
13:11 Again, you see that.
13:12 Even though Cesena's kind of rough around the edges,
13:14 he does use all the subtleties.
13:17 - Good change up in speed there from Cesena.
13:20 - Cesena said he's ready to give the fans a show.
13:24 Looks like he's got a perfect dance partner
13:26 in Orlando Gonzalez.
13:29 Three fights, three finishes,
13:31 this our main event of the evening.
13:35 - Out of here, out of here.
13:37 - Ooh, good body shot there from Cesena.
13:41 One of those strafing shots that we talked about
13:43 a couple fights ago.
13:44 Those body shots that kind of scrape you
13:47 and sometimes hurt more than a solid shot.
13:50 - Interesting thing about this round thus far,
13:52 Gonzalez has not let himself get back up to the ropes,
13:54 but he's losing the round at center ring.
13:55 - Yeah, he's getting up out to the center now.
13:56 - Weird.
13:59 - Three fights, two finishes.
14:01 A very ultra entertaining performance by Mandip Chandra.
14:06 - Again, that sneak left hook, it's so sneaky.
14:12 Canelo does that too, that sneak left hook.
14:14 It looks like a jab,
14:15 and then all of a sudden it turns into a hook.
14:18 - And then Cesena just turns the corner afterwards.
14:22 - Cesena's having a very good get back round
14:24 after that last round.
14:29 - He's 23 years old.
14:32 Considers the USA the mecca of boxing.
14:43 - Nice head movement there from Cesena as well.
14:46 - Nice left hook from him as well.
14:49 He's gotten that going.
14:50 - Interesting round, man, 'cause you would've thought
14:52 if this fight started to go at center ring,
14:53 Gonzalez would have the better of the action.
14:56 It's almost like Gonzalez is like,
14:57 "I feel weird at center ring against this guy.
14:59 "This hook, I'm so used to him chasing me."
15:01 Nice body shot there by Gonzalez.
15:03 He's gonna get a warning for low blow, though.
15:06 - Hey!
15:08 You okay?
15:14 - That must have been a bad one,
15:15 because Cesena was having a really good round.
15:17 I would think he would not want to take a break.
15:20 - You okay?
15:22 - Cesena wants to-- - They wanna go.
15:25 - Get back in there.
15:27 - Boom.
15:28 - And a big combination,
15:30 and a heavy left hand thrown by Orlando Gonzalez.
15:35 Again.
15:38 Final seconds of round number four.
15:42 - Gonzalez was trying to steal the round,
15:44 but then Cesena's coming back with some big shots himself.
15:47 - Capu looking to close this one out.
15:49 - Come back, come back.
15:52 [bell dings]
15:53 - And the numbers on the judges' scorecards.
15:56 [crowd cheering]
15:59 - Gonna take a look to see if that low blow
16:09 was actually a blow.
16:10 - Yeah, that's low.
16:13 - And it was.
16:14 Cesena's telling the truth.
16:15 Like I said, he was having such a good round,
16:17 I would think he would not want a break in the action.
16:19 - Yeah, and he wouldn't want Gonzalez to get a break either,
16:21 'cause you see what happened when Gonzalez got that break.
16:23 He came out punching right off of it
16:24 and tried to steal the round.
16:25 - And Gonzalez has a sneaky check hook
16:27 in between the combinations there
16:29 that's been catching Cesena,
16:32 and also that straight left hand
16:34 that's been popping his head up.
16:37 - That would have been right on the selfie
16:40 of Steven Galeano, by the way.
16:42 - Yeah.
16:43 That's a first, guys.
16:44 Selfie on his own trunks.
16:46 - Yes.
16:48 But don't forget, it's not a selfie
16:50 if it's you and I, Paulie.
16:52 Ted Lasso, we learned it's a nasi.
16:54 It's a nasi.
16:56 - Oh, nice left hand.
16:57 I mean, dude, Gonzalez's walk right off the center ring
17:00 just nailed Cesena with a left cross.
17:03 - Round number five, main event of the evening.
17:06 Orlando Gonzalez, the Puerto Rican
17:09 in the black, red hand, white trunks.
17:11 - And now he used the left hook to set up the right hand.
17:13 You saw that?
17:14 Cesena, sneaky.
17:15 - Did it again.
17:16 That hampered it down to the body.
17:18 - Cesena in the black and gold.
17:20 - That sneak left, do you see how he does it?
17:22 Now he used that sneak left hook
17:23 to set up a right hand instead.
17:25 This guy's rough around the edges,
17:27 but he's subtle, man.
17:28 He's sneaky.
17:29 - Oh, good overhand left right there from Cesena as well.
17:32 - Cesena, 9-1 in his last 10 fights
17:35 with six finishes.
17:38 - Yeah, I was very impressed when I saw him in San Antonio.
17:42 He looked much better than I expected him to
17:46 against a very, very tough guy.
17:48 - Oh!
17:49 Left hook hurts Gonzalez.
17:51 - Punched in between him.
17:52 This is why you punch in between.
17:53 This is why you don't do your turn, my turn.
17:55 Gonzalez throwing a nice combination,
17:56 and Cesena punches in between him
17:58 and almost brought him down.
17:59 I mean, Gonzalez, his knee's completely buckled,
18:02 and now he's trying to survive this onslaught.
18:04 - That shows you the strength of Gonzalez,
18:05 the way he caught himself without going down.
18:07 That shows a lot of conditioning.
18:10 And Cesena was smart.
18:11 He went right back down to the body
18:12 immediately with the right hand.
18:14 - And Cesena still very aggressive.
18:17 He knows he has his opponent hurt.
18:19 - You talk about making your life miserable.
18:20 I was saying this kind of pressure,
18:21 this kind of pace makes your life miserable.
18:23 Makes it even more miserable when you're hurt.
18:25 Oh, body shot.
18:28 - I can feel that one, ringside.
18:30 Yeah, Gonzalez is looking very uncomfortable here.
18:34 - Good answer to the body for Gonzalez.
18:41 - Gonzalez hurt him with a right hook.
18:42 - And now he puts together a combination,
18:45 and they want to go.
18:48 What a main event.
18:50 Sneaky uppercut by Cesena.
18:52 - Both these guys are sneaky.
18:53 - Answered by Capu.
18:57 - You can hear the crowd, right?
18:58 You can hear the crowd.
18:59 They are into this one.
19:00 How can you not be?
19:01 - Yeah, I'm into this one, too.
19:03 It's a great fight.
19:05 Ooh, cut over the eye of Cesena.
19:08 Oh, another right hook to the chin.
19:11 - Well, this flower is definitely Ari Bud.
19:15 And this fight just gets better and better.
19:18 - Oh, Cesena says, "Cut, what cut?"
19:20 - 30 seconds.
19:22 These type of fights are what Pro Box TV is all about.
19:37 - Sneaky finish there, Chris.
19:40 - Yeah, this is one of those fights
19:41 you do not want to go get a beer during.
19:43 You want to stay here and watch,
19:44 because these guys are banging.
19:47 Mm.
19:49 Oh!
19:51 [bell dings]
19:52 - Well, they both told us they were mentally prepared
19:56 for the deep waters.
19:58 And they're going there.
20:00 - What a round.
20:04 I mean, pretty much the whole round is a highlight
20:06 There they trade right hands.
20:08 Looks like Cesena got the better of it.
20:10 There they are on the inside.
20:12 And that was the left hook
20:13 that caught Gonzales high in the head and buckled him.
20:16 He didn't go down. He didn't touch.
20:18 - And that was his right hook that he came back with.
20:21 This made him say, "Come on, let's go."
20:24 See, he's going to say...
20:27 - There it is. Puerto Rican pride.
20:30 - He said, "Come on, vamos."
20:32 They both speak the same language.
20:34 [laughing]
20:36 [speaking Spanish]
20:38 - This is a fight. This is a fight.
20:40 [speaking Spanish]
20:42 [whistle blows]
20:44 [indistinct chatter]
20:46 - Our main event of the evening.
20:49 [bell dings]
20:53 A combined 36 wins,
20:57 25 finishes for Cesena and Gonzales.
21:03 Round number six.
21:05 - Mm. - Wow.
21:08 Counter right from Cesena.
21:10 - He loaded that one up.
21:12 Partially blocked by Gonzales.
21:14 - Both.
21:16 - Both fighters had eight-week camps.
21:23 They both said they came in healthy.
21:26 And you can see the effects of a good camp
21:30 in two hungry fighters.
21:33 And again, Cesena going bodyhead.
21:36 - Yeah, if you're not gonna punch him between Cesena,
21:38 he's really gonna open up on you,
21:39 'cause he's also very creative with the way he--
21:41 he selects the shots.
21:43 Nice combination there by Gonzales as well, though.
21:45 - Finishing with a nice, sharp jab.
21:47 And although Gonzales got hurt last round,
21:53 he looks more confident coming into this round.
21:57 - Gonzales fighting here in Kissimmee tonight.
22:01 Seventh fight in the Central Florida area
22:04 and the Orlando area.
22:06 Sixth here in Kissimmee.
22:08 So not quite a hometown as it is present day for Blast.
22:16 - Mm, good changeup there from Cesena.
22:18 Jabs low, throws a rain in high.
22:20 But I think he looked down and punched up.
22:22 - Oh.
22:24 - But a second home as a fighter.
22:27 As they both throw hard.
22:30 Center ring here, 120 on the clock, round six.
22:33 - Cesena needs to be careful.
22:34 He needs to get that left hand back up,
22:36 'cause that right hook, he's just not seeing.
22:39 - Gonzales comes forward.
22:44 - That's one thing about a guy who's got a creative lead hand.
22:50 A lot of times that shot,
22:52 that hand isn't there to protect yourself.
22:54 You've got it out in front so much,
22:55 you're throwing it a lot, you're looping it,
22:57 and Gonzales has had a home for that right hook over it.
23:00 - Yeah, nice little double left hand by Gonzales as well.
23:03 - 22 bouts, Gonzales has never been stopped.
23:09 Went the distance in both of the bouts
23:13 in which he was defeated.
23:15 Cesena finished just once.
23:18 Tonight is 19th professional fight.
23:20 - Tell you one thing, you gotta credit Gonzales.
23:21 Since that round that he won
23:22 when he had to spend it all on the ropes
23:24 and he had to work hard,
23:25 he hasn't really gone to the ropes a lot.
23:27 You know, he's decided to keep this fight at center ring
23:30 for better or for worse.
23:31 There are times it hasn't been great for him at center ring,
23:34 and other times it has.
23:35 - It's going well for him this round.
23:37 Gonzales is boxing well.
23:38 He landed some good, snappy right hooks.
23:41 - Yeah, you always--
23:42 Either way, you want to keep it at center ring,
23:44 because, you know, you give yourself more options.
23:48 - See, Cesena now wants it all in the phone booth.
23:52 And Gonzales is saying,
23:53 "Nah, I'm gonna change range on you."
23:56 The action, two-way exchanges.
24:10 Nice little right hook there by Gonzales
24:14 in between the shots of Cesena.
24:16 You see a little double left cross.
24:18 The second one lands even better
24:19 as Cesena goes straight back.
24:22 See the shots there as well.
24:24 Gonzales is just a little sharper there on the inside.
24:26 Let's see if it's the fatigue of Cesena
24:28 that may be catching up.
24:30 - Cesena's not returning that right hand to home,
24:37 and Gonzales has found a home for that right hook over the top.
24:41 - And Gonzales very animated in his corner.
24:46 Feels like the momentum may...
24:49 Be going his way as this main event continues.
24:56 Scheduled for ten.
24:57 This is round number seven.
24:59 The Southpaw Gonzales.
25:01 Black, red, and white trunks.
25:03 Ramiro "Demon" Cesena
25:07 in the black and gold trunks.
25:11 [crowd shouting]
25:14 The confidence of Gonzales
25:19 has grown round by round.
25:22 ProBoxTV, your boxing channel.
25:31 - Gonzales is starting to take notice
25:35 that Cesena goes straight back a lot of times
25:37 when he throws those straight punches.
25:38 And what he does is--you saw what he did there.
25:40 He threw three or four straight punches,
25:42 you know, with both hands.
25:44 There he just did it again with a double jab left hand.
25:46 And he keeps catching Cesena on the end of it
25:48 because Cesena goes straight back
25:49 when you throw straight shots at him.
25:51 And it's not--you know, that's one of the things
25:53 they teach you in boxing.
25:54 Don't go straight back.
25:55 But a lot of times, when you see straight punches coming at you,
25:57 you know, you want to go straight back.
25:58 It's your tendency to go straight back.
25:59 You got to fight that feeling off and, you know,
26:01 slip to the side.
26:03 Or get underneath like Cesena did there.
26:06 - Yeah, the natural inclination is to pull away
26:08 from a punch that's coming at you.
26:10 But boxing is anything but natural.
26:13 - Midway point of round number seven.
26:21 Two weeks from tonight,
26:25 we will be back at our world headquarters.
26:28 - Mm.
26:30 Good, leaping left hook over the top.
26:33 I was just gonna say a moment ago,
26:35 Cesena got away from that lead upper--
26:37 lead left hook over the top,
26:39 and he came right back to it
26:40 and stunned Gonzalez once again.
26:42 - And you see, that's the shot selection I'm talking about.
26:45 Good hook there by Gonzalez.
26:47 But you see, Cesena gets you from underneath
26:49 and around the side.
26:50 When he gets his hands going,
26:51 Gonzalez has to punch in between there.
26:52 And a good job by Gonzalez to do that
26:54 and counter with that right hook.
26:55 - Probably that uppercut that split the guard
26:57 from Cesena was nasty.
26:59 - Yeah, Cesena threw a nice body shot there too.
27:01 I think that stunned Gonzalez as well.
27:03 But Gonzalez comes back, fighting off the ropes.
27:06 - Nice move off the ropes by Ces--by Gonzalez.
27:09 He needed to do that.
27:11 Although Cesena puts him right back on the other corner.
27:13 - Tonight, it's Gonzalez and Cesena in two weeks.
27:16 It'll be the Georgian Pitbull,
27:18 Otar Aranosian,
27:20 and former WBA super featherweight world champion,
27:23 Venezuela's Roger "The Kid" Gutierrez.
27:27 - Oh!
27:29 - Big swing and a miss.
27:30 - Big right hook land on the inside
27:32 of Cesena.
27:33 Gonzalez took that well
27:34 and comes back with his own.
27:36 - We have got ourselves an outstanding main event,
27:45 as we had hoped and anticipated.
27:48 - Good two-way action here.
27:52 - Oh.
27:53 - So the final bout.
27:55 - They keep going, keep going at it.
27:56 Three rounds to go, Mane.
27:58 Just an amateur fight away now.
28:00 [laughter]
28:01 - By Goldie's math.
28:02 - Yeah.
28:03 - Holly with that finish right there.
28:07 I don't know if I--
28:08 I don't know if I can counter that one, Chris.
28:10 - Yeah, we see a beautiful left uppercut
28:11 on the inside.
28:12 Champ, you're talking about the punch selection
28:14 from Cesena.
28:15 He mixes things up,
28:16 but it's that right hook.
28:18 Whenever Cesena gets a little too confident
28:21 with his offense,
28:22 Gonzalez cracks him with that right hook.
28:25 There's that uppercut up the middle.
28:28 That's a nasty shot.
28:29 - I like how Gonzalez tries to get the last word, though.
28:31 You see, Cesena throws,
28:32 and Gonzalez tries to at least respond
28:34 back before they separate.
28:35 So at least he'll leave it in the minds of the judges
28:37 who finish the combination.
28:39 He's smart.
28:40 I don't know if he's gonna win the fight.
28:41 We got a very close fight here,
28:42 but sometimes just those little subtle things
28:45 keep you standing out in the minds of the judges.
28:47 Cesena had some very good combinations
28:49 that round, though.
28:51 - Such a competitive fight.
28:52 These guys are going back and forth
28:53 each and every round.
28:55 - Cesena comes right out right away there.
28:57 Don't shoot that straight right hand to the stomach.
28:59 - Judges have their hands full in this one.
29:01 - Yeah, don't ask me who's winning this fight.
29:04 I'm just enjoying it.
29:05 - There you go.
29:06 - I'm just enjoying it.
29:07 This is a great two-way action.
29:08 - We just go with who's winning?
29:09 The fans here on Pro Box TV,
29:11 'cause we have an entertaining main event.
29:14 - Yeah, this is one of those fights, man,
29:16 where it's tough to--
29:17 it's gonna be tough to judge it.
29:20 - And we still have three more rounds left,
29:22 which is--which is great.
29:23 I don't want this fight to end.
29:25 - It's just an amateur fight.
29:26 - It's just an amateur fight.
29:27 - And maybe it'll be easier to score it
29:29 if it's these next three rounds.
29:30 We'll see.
29:31 - That's true.
29:32 Maybe someone will be able to separate themselves
29:33 and show themselves to be a clear winner.
29:35 - Mm.
29:42 - Cesena, the aggressor thus far
29:48 here in the first minute of round number eight.
29:51 Flipping a nice pile of sweat our way.
29:55 - And again, Cesena going straight back there.
29:57 Gonzalez managed to get himself off the ropes
29:59 for just a second, but now he goes back.
30:01 Nice body shot there by Cesena.
30:04 - Gonzalez changing levels,
30:06 trying to land with that combination.
30:08 - This round, Cesena is making Gonzalez waste the energy.
30:20 He's landing the good shots, although Gonzalez picked--
30:23 just as I say that, picks a nice spot
30:25 to throw two good punches.
30:27 - And neither guy wants to give up too much time
30:29 or momentum to the other.
30:30 They come right back.
30:32 - Just an outstanding southpaw against orthodox fighter.
30:36 Matchup, especially with that check hook
30:38 thrown by Gonzalez.
30:40 - And Gonzalez has the punches with the less fat on them,
30:43 and he can let those combinations go.
30:45 - [laughs]
30:46 I was gonna say, "No, no, no. Keep going."
30:49 Oh, big swing and miss to the overhand.
30:51 - Nice defensive move there off the ropes by Gonzalez.
30:55 Both of these guys, it's funny, they're both tactical,
31:00 but it seems like Gonzalez a little bit more athletic.
31:03 And Cesena is--yeah, it's clean, exactly, man.
31:06 And Cesena's--with the subtleties,
31:08 very interesting, man, 'cause he got that nice left hook,
31:10 uses those foot feints well,
31:12 uses those sneaky uppercuts on the inside.
31:15 - Good body shot there.
31:17 Right into the elbow of Gonzalez,
31:19 comes right back. Ooh. Oh.
31:21 - Got his head snapped back on, that one from Cesena.
31:24 - Gonzalez has to be careful on the out,
31:26 not to get hit with punches, usually.
31:28 He's been taking a couple shots this round as he gets out.
31:30 - Uh-huh. Rick, go back now. Go back.
31:32 - I mentioned in between the other previous round
31:34 that he does a good job of getting the last response
31:37 of the judges, like right there.
31:39 And sometimes, if you're getting hit on the out,
31:41 you no longer got the last response.
31:43 - That was a nice little shoe shine.
31:45 - Oh, that's tricky.
31:47 - And a lead in the round landed by Gonzalez.
31:50 - Yeah, that was a nice setup with a foot feint first.
31:52 [bell dings] - Go!
31:54 - And a flurry at the finish of the round once again.
31:57 - And again, those shots at the belt
31:59 can really sneak it your way.
32:02 [dramatic music]
32:05 ♪

32:56 - Ninth round.
33:00 The Southpaw, Capu, the Puerto Rican,
33:03 Cisneros in the golden black,
33:07 again, showering us with their hard work.
33:11 - Combination by Capu.
33:14 - Good body shot by Cesena that brings him back,
33:16 brings Capu back to the ropes,
33:18 and now he's following it up with a good combination.
33:20 And again, that sneaky uppercut.
33:22 - That uppercut did not sound pretty.
33:24 Oh, and a body shot.
33:26 [indistinct chatter]
33:28 Cisneros has started out this round on fire.
33:31 - Yes, he has.
33:33 - I see where the nickname "El Demon" comes from.
33:36 - Oh, man.
33:38 [indistinct chatter]
33:40 - One moment, one moment.
33:43 - Body shots right in front of us.
33:46 - Oh, man.
33:48 - And a right hand off the chin of Cesena from Gonzalez.
33:51 - Mm, Gonzalez might be hurt here.
33:53 This is actually-- - Dang, look at the game
33:54 of the body, Chris.
33:56 - Yeah, Gonzalez looking-- does not look good.
33:58 Looking a little woozy.
34:00 - Stop! Stop!
34:02 - Oh, memory did a good job a few rounds back.
34:04 - Don't hold me. - To--to hold on his feet.
34:07 That--that's something that could make a difference
34:09 in the fight. - Oh, and a body shot too.
34:11 - He's gonna have to stand up here in this round.
34:13 There's still half a round to go.
34:15 - Yeah, these last 90 seconds have been really rough
34:17 for Gonzalez. He's getting hit with everything.
34:19 - And that uppercut again from Cesena.
34:22 Right hand or left hand splitting the guard.
34:25 - And Cesena does not forget to go back to the body.
34:27 - Cesena's not the easiest guy to clinch either, man.
34:29 He does a very good job of creating the openings.
34:32 You see, Gonzalez's feet are woozy, man.
34:35 - Gonzalez has never been stopped.
34:38 - And that's--yeah, I think that's Cesena.
34:40 With his punch selection, makes him very tricky to defend.
34:43 - And he's just a guy who makes you miserable on the inside.
34:46 - 13 of his 16 wins have been finishes.
34:49 - The Demon just walking forward and letting both hands rip.
34:52 [crowd shouting]
34:55 Oh, man, digging the right hand to the body,
34:58 and the left hook, and those uppercuts up the middle.
35:00 Back comes Gonzalez, but Cesena still walks him down.
35:03 Oh, big uppercut. - Again, sneaky uppercut.
35:05 - The good chin on Gonzalez. - The Demon trying to rip
35:08 those buds off the flower from Puerto Rico,
35:11 and he is taken over here in round 9.
35:15 - Good chin on Gonzalez, I'll tell you, man.
35:17 You get the way he stood up a few rounds back
35:19 when he was almost moving down. - Yeah, he caught him in the legs.
35:21 - He has not gone down this round as well,
35:23 taking some clean shots. Oh, even some hard body shots.
35:26 - This has been the most dominant round by either man.
35:28 - Never will I be.
35:30 - Cesena came out strong and has just poured it on.
35:34 - 15 seconds now left in the ninth.
35:37 Gonzalez trying to get something to land.
35:40 - Is Gonzalez saving it for the last round?
35:42 I'll tell you what, he's saving it for the last 20 seconds.
35:44 - Wow.
35:46 [crowd shouting]
35:48 What a fight.
35:50 [bell dings]
35:51 - Mouth is bleeding. - How good is this?
35:53 - Oh, oh, oh.
35:55 [crowd shouting]
35:58 - And Gonzalez's mouth spitting blood.
36:01 [crowd shouting]
36:04 - Gonzalez took a lot of damage that round.
36:08 Here we're gonna see some of the action.
36:11 Gonzalez pinned against the ropes here,
36:14 and Cesena opening up in that uppercut.
36:17 - And those uppercuts like that, that are the reason
36:19 Gonzalez's mouth is so full of blood at this point.
36:23 - Gonzalez did a good job to hold on his feet in that round.
36:27 His feet were woozy there, as you can see in that replay,
36:29 as he was trying to get from one side of the ring to the other
36:32 to catch himself a break.
36:33 - That uppercut again, that thing was a beauty.
36:35 - And despite all these replays, it started to be Gonzalez.
36:38 At the end of the round, he saved it,
36:40 and he started fighting back, landing some good shots.
36:44 - Ooh, geez.
36:46 Tit for tat, these guys going back and forth
36:48 with bombs all night long.
36:50 - Does Gonzalez have anything left in round 10,
36:52 or did he shoot it all out in the last 20 seconds?
36:55 Respect by both guys.
36:57 - 10th and final round.
36:59 Three minutes remain.
37:01 - And so after the touch of gloves,
37:02 Gonzalez backed up right away, and Cesena went right to him.
37:05 - Stepped right to him.
37:07 - Gonzalez trying to stay busy,
37:10 even with his back against the ropes.
37:13 [crowd chanting "Rodrigo"]
37:18 - They're getting wet and bloody at ringside.
37:21 [crowd chanting "Rodrigo"]
37:24 - That's one thing.
37:25 It's been, uh, miserably hot in South Florida this summer.
37:29 So late in the fight, these guys are pouring sweat.
37:32 - It's hot in that ring right now, too.
37:34 The action is hot. It's hot.
37:36 - Ooh.
37:38 - And again, Gonzalez trying to land that combination
37:40 and get out, trying to give the judges that last vision.
37:44 - Gonzalez is smart.
37:45 He's taking the power off the shots.
37:47 Cesena's walking in the front door,
37:48 and he's just letting his hands go like that.
37:50 [crowd chanting]
37:53 - Another landing.
37:56 Left hand to jaw of opponents is Senator Gonzalez.
38:00 - I'm just gonna say right now, whoever wins this fight,
38:02 the other guy's gonna feel like he got robbed.
38:04 This is a fight where both guys are gonna feel
38:06 like they won the fight.
38:08 It's a shame somebody has to lose it.
38:11 If, in fact, there is a loser,
38:12 it could actually be a draw, right?
38:13 - Very true. - Good point.
38:16 [crowd chanting]
38:18 - In which case, they're both out.
38:20 [laughter]
38:21 - Either way, somebody--at least one guy's
38:23 leaving the ring unhappy.
38:24 - Just past the midway point of the tenth
38:26 and final round of our main event of the evening.
38:30 - Nobody else is leaving this room unhappy, though.
38:32 Geez, this is some fight.
38:34 - It's been a good night.
38:37 - Oh.
38:38 - See, again, Gonzalez not--Cesena not an easy guy
38:41 to clinch.
38:42 You see Gonzalez trying to clinch him,
38:43 but Cesena does not accept it
38:45 and somehow finds the openings.
38:46 - Yeah, he punches over and around the clinch.
38:48 A lot of blood coming from the mouth.
38:50 - Yeah, and that was all uppercuts, dude.
38:52 - Yeah.
38:53 - Under a minute, and Cesena only 23 years old.
38:57 - Oh, geez.
38:59 Big overhand right on the inside from Cesena.
39:02 I was gonna say, those uppercuts,
39:03 those are jawbreakers.
39:04 - Oh, look at the fast hands from Orlando Gonzalez.
39:09 - Yeah, dude, shoeshining, but actually landing good shots.
39:12 - Rick, stop it. Go back. Come back.
39:15 Go back.
39:16 - Little arm weary.
39:18 - And he's got a lot of blood coming from him
39:20 in this tenth round.
39:21 - So do we send our dry-cleaning bill
39:24 to the winner or the loser?
39:26 - I mean, oh, the blood inside the mouth of Gonzalez.
39:30 Again, you can see the effectiveness
39:33 of the uppercuts Cesena landed all night.
39:36 - Oh.
39:41 - They are gonna fight to the finish.
39:43 - Blood and guts from both these men.
39:46 - I tell you, they're gonna sleep good tonight, man.
39:49 - Wow. What a great fight.
39:52 They go the distance.
39:55 - What a fight.
39:56 I want to see this again, dude.
39:57 - I was--you know what? - I'm telling you right now,
39:59 I don't--it doesn't even matter who wins to me right now.
40:01 I want to see this again. This is--what a fight.
40:04 - Paulie, when you were talking about unhappy, happy,
40:08 I'm thinking, here on "Pro Box TV,"
40:10 either way, we run it back,
40:12 and we thank both fighters for bringing it tonight.
40:15 - When you're talking about your fights of the year for 2023,
40:18 sometimes fights like this fall below the radar.
40:21 This was a fight.
40:24 - Here's the replays,
40:28 and there were plenty of great shots
40:31 landed by both men.
40:33 - I mean, the whole fight was a highlight.
40:35 These guys were back and forth all night long.
40:38 Blood and guts, heavy punches landed.
40:44 - And I tell you what, man,
40:47 I don't think you're gonna have a conclusive winner here, man.
40:50 You're gonna have a decision,
40:51 but you're not gonna have a conclusive winner.
40:53 This could easily be a fight that is fought again.
40:56 - The fight was not taken out of either man.
40:58 No one separated themselves,
41:00 although Cesena had the most dominant round
41:02 of the fight in round nine.
41:04 - But it still only gets you at that nine round,
41:06 unless there's a knockdown, right?
41:07 And a good job by Gonzales in about round four or so
41:10 when he was almost down and he stayed up,
41:12 'cause now that extra point
41:14 could also make a big difference on the scorecard.
41:17 - Action pack from start to finish.
41:23 - Let's see if we can recap this fight,
41:26 but like you said, champ,
41:27 this whole fight is a highlight.
41:29 - Yeah, just watch.
41:30 We don't even have to talk over this.
41:31 - Yeah, Pro Box TV, man, we keep trying to tell you.
41:34 And if you guys--
41:35 for the ones that are subscribed
41:36 and the ones who do tune in,
41:38 you know, you guys know already.
41:39 This is kind of the norm
41:40 for the kind of main events we give you,
41:42 and a lot of times the whole card is this good,
41:44 but this was our extra special one tonight.
41:46 We've given you guys good fights.
41:47 We know our motto is, "Good fighters in great fights."
41:50 That was that shot there.
41:51 It almost brought Gonzales down,
41:53 but he managed to stay up.
41:54 Good fighters in great fights.
41:55 This is a prime example of good fighters in great fights.
41:58 - When I had first heard about this main event,
42:00 I remembered Gonzales, or Alonso Gonzales,
42:02 I knew he was a very good fighter.
42:04 I had forgot that I had seen Ramiro Cesena.
42:07 And then when I found out it was him,
42:08 I was like, "Oh, man, we got a really good fight."
42:10 And I was telling you, I was like,
42:11 "This is a really good fight. I've seen this kid."
42:13 And sure enough, they lived up to it.
42:15 - And you put together the right styles,
42:16 which we try to do our best here at Pro Box TV for you.
42:19 You put together the right styles,
42:21 and you're gonna get action fights.
42:23 And that's--again, for those of you--
42:25 for those of you that have been loyal to Pro Box TV
42:27 and have been watching our cards over and over again,
42:30 you guys know.
42:31 I mean, this is the kind of fights
42:32 we've been giving you and delivering to you.
42:34 Look at that exchange at the end.
42:35 Look at that combination by Gonzales.
42:37 And it was rough and rugged shots.
42:39 He had his blood flowing out of his mouth
42:41 from the uppercuts.
42:42 Cesena landed all night.
42:43 I mean, what an action fight.
42:46 - Gonzales is gonna have trouble chewing food
42:48 for the next couple days.
42:49 - Yeah. I'll tell you what,
42:50 they're not gonna have trouble sleeping tonight.
42:52 - Judges have rendered their decision
42:56 for our main event of the evening.
42:58 Here is Mark Lichtenfeld.
43:01 [bell dings]
43:02 - Ladies and gentlemen, after ten head-snapping rounds,
43:06 we go to the scorecards.
43:09 Tina Griffith and Rodolfo Aguilar
43:11 both scored the bout 96-94.
43:15 96-94.
43:18 Alvaro Rodriguez sees it 97-93.
43:21 97-93.
43:25 For your winner by unanimous decision,
43:27 el ganador por decision unanime,
43:31 Orlando Gonzales!
43:38 - Orlando Gonzales gets the win.
43:42 - I gotta think. One thing I'm gonna tell you,
43:43 you fight in Orlando, you basically are in Puerto Rico.
43:46 Okay, a lot of big Puerto Rican population.
43:48 When I heard 97-93, I knew Cesena wasn't getting it.
43:50 I knew. I know. I knew.
