Transcript
00:00 I can see your belly buttons. I want all the punches above the line.
00:03 Touch them up. Good luck and God bless.
00:05 Both these guys have in common. They come from cities that have some city funded boxing gyms.
00:12 And that, or at least Johnson City used to. And that always helps.
00:17 Increased the pugilistic prowess of the entire population of the area.
00:22 It does a number of things you mentioned, Ikujo. One, to get some kids started early as well.
00:29 What do you expect to see early here from Gerry Forrest?
00:31 Alright, this is a pick 'em fight on paper. I'm really excited to see it.
00:37 Robert Hall, his loss is to a top level Hungarian.
00:42 Gerry Forrest has been living at the top levels of the sport. Multiple ESPN appearances.
00:48 He's faced Jared Anderson, Carlos Dacom.
00:51 He fought Zhang, what could have been considered a Fight of the Year candidate.
00:58 Not long ago on DAZN. Actually could have been on Thriller. I'm not sure he's fought on so many television stations.
01:04 A lot of high level experience. Not just experience, high level experience.
01:07 All the very highs.
01:09 I mean, I can only think of two heavyweights he hasn't fought.
01:13 That's Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder. He's fought everybody else.
01:16 [Chuckle]
01:16 Hall pumping that jab just a little bit. This is an eight round fight.
01:41 Gerry Forrest looking, slugger looking to seek and destroy if you will, moving forward.
01:46 2019, Gerry Forrest fought on one of my undercards.
01:52 He's a co-main event. He fought Joshua Tufte.
01:55 Won a decision in Lynchburg, Virginia.
01:57 Josh Tufte, the former squad partner of Vladimir Klitschko.
02:00 I think he was 19-2 at the time.
02:04 A slug.
02:05 Speed up the round.
02:10 There's a good step through and spin right there.
02:13 A big right hand there from Hall.
02:17 Looked like it had Forrest take a step back at least.
02:21 But now Forrest back to pumping, pushing the action. Got him in the corner.
02:30 Tie up there by Hall Jr. out of the corner.
02:37 Forrest is doing a great job of the southpaw pumping that jab.
02:41 He looks, I've seen several of Gerry Forrest's fights. I will tell you this.
02:46 This physique on Forrest, he looks like he is trained hard. He looks like he's in really great shape.
02:53 Like I said, change of scenery.
02:55 Forrest also was in the training camp with Seth Mitchell at my gym some time ago.
03:07 I did get a chance to talk to Forrest a little bit earlier today before the fight.
03:17 And not only did he say he was physically ready, but mentally he's taking a different approach.
03:24 He feels mentally ready for this fight more so than he's had some of his fights in the past.
03:28 Tough round to score, but I will tell you this.
03:34 And I'll tell you why it's a tough round to score.
03:36 It looks like Forrest pumped the jab, controlled it, dictated the space and the action.
03:41 I would say the cleanest shot of the fight was landed by Robert Hall.
03:46 Yeah, I think so too. I think I'm going to lean towards Forrest on that round.
03:51 But yeah, I mean just the activity and the work right with his jab and stabbing him underneath.
03:57 Although Hall landed some good shots also. I mean it was a little tougher one.
04:01 Hall, I think over the top probably landed the cleanest shot of the first round.
04:08 Forrest didn't respond, it had him in the corner a little bit. Hall had to tie up.
04:12 But there was a shot there in the first round that Hall had. Forrest had to take a step back.
04:19 You do a pretty good job keeping me engaged in conversation. It's hard for me to score the fight sometimes.
04:25 Well you got to do a little bit of both, Cujo. You got to do a little bit of both.
04:29 I'm not good at multitasking.
04:31 You're doing great, buddy. You're doing a great job.
04:33 Round two steps out and Forrest still pressing the action, pumping the jab.
04:38 Almost an omnipresent jab from the Southpaw.
04:41 It's been interesting. The Southpaw vs. Orthodox fights we've seen here in the last two fights.
04:49 The guys are really establishing their jab. Oftentimes you see those guys just trying to line up the backhand.
04:54 Now with activity that Forrest is having, is it like the previous fight?
04:59 Do you think Hall doesn't have opportunities to really get off because he's not throwing that much?
05:05 The only difference I see here in the fight is that Forrest is not throwing that much.
05:13 He's throwing a lot of jabs.
05:16 He's throwing a lot of jabs.
05:20 The only difference I see here in that fight and this one is Hall is kind of disrespecting Jerry's space a little bit.
05:27 He's kind of stepping through that range.
05:29 You see what I'm saying? Montez was kind of waiting.
05:32 So in some ways Hall is actually forcing action. He's not letting his hands go.
05:38 I think he's trying to get a good counter opportunity.
05:41 Good uppercut on the inside for Hall.
05:48 I don't feel as hopeless for Robert as I do for Montez.
05:53 As we speak he's starting to seem like he let his hands go a little bit just there.
05:58 It's in spots but he does seem like he's closing that distance now.
06:02 Oh yeah. I mean I certainly feel like Hall is still alive though.
06:06 At no point does Jerry Forrest have the strength to do that.
06:14 And there. Forrest pushing some action in the corner there.
06:21 Hall ties up.
06:23 Nice veteran move there and then gets a right hand out.
06:26 That was a great right hand. I mean that's...
06:29 And gets another right hand in.
06:31 Jerry's legs are a little off after that shot.
06:35 And now Hall really is starting to pump the action a little bit more.
06:39 Still going backwards.
06:41 But three good right hands for Hall.
06:44 [crowd noise]
06:46 And there is a look to Hall as you can see ringside
07:01 of him really processing and downloading information.
07:05 It's not fast and furious but it's a little bit more like
07:11 trying to see exactly where he's going to approach
07:14 and he is taking his time to get some punches off.
07:17 Doing a good job of stymieing the offensive Jerry when he gets close also.
07:22 Veteran move. Veteran move of smothering and tying up right?
07:26 This round I feel like I'm probably going to favor Hall
07:31 just because the punch that supposedly landed clean on Jerry in the first round
07:39 wasn't super clean but man that punch Robert Hall hit Jerry with that round
07:44 definitely had his legs a little weak for only a split second
07:49 but it was definitely a very clean straight effective punch.
07:53 It's very clear in the first two rounds that the harder punches
08:00 the hardest punches of the fight so far
08:03 and the most like clean flush landing punches
08:07 have been delivered by Robert Hall.
08:09 It just hasn't been enough activity if you will
08:13 to necessarily look as if he's kind of controlling or dictating the fight.
08:18 Yeah the work rate and the omnipresent jab as I said by Jerry Forrest
08:22 is making it hard for Robert Hall's clean effective punch to overcome it.
08:27 And there's the bell for round three.
08:34 Forrest in black sequins trunks laced with red slugger on the waist belt
08:39 Hall on the waist belt as he's in red burgundy and some white tassel here.
08:45 If you didn't know any better you would say Hall is a commander's fan.
08:53 You see Robert is constantly inching forward until Jerry explodes
09:01 and then he escapes out and gets back into this posture
09:04 kind of walking in trying to get in the punch.
09:07 There's that jab again by Forrest.
09:17 You are right it's almost an omnipresent jab.
09:20 It's what's making these rounds when they're close maybe favoring Jerry.
09:28 [crowd noise]
09:56 A little bit more tactical third round.
09:59 There's some feinting there now.
10:03 Yeah I feel like Robert's really getting comfortable with the distance that's called.
10:08 And as Forrest is back he's talking about getting close.
10:12 And Hall smiles and sometimes when you smile
10:16 that means you're a little bit more hurt than you laid on.
10:19 I always tell my fighters no means yes.
10:25 [crowd noise]
10:27 Now it looks like Hall's definitely got his legs under him.
10:30 He's bouncing around but Forrest...
10:32 I do wonder I can't wait to see the replay.
10:34 I actually think Jerry may have landed a left straight downstairs to the liver.
10:39 That's what it looks like. I think you're exactly right.
10:42 [crowd noise]
10:46 There's the aggressor there but didn't get caught with the left check hook.
10:51 And again Hall smothered and tied up pretty quickly there.
10:55 [crowd noise]
11:03 I think this is probably the most commanding round either has had and it's gone from Jerry.
11:09 [crowd noise]
11:22 Oh there's a short uppercut there. Short left uppercut from Forrest.
11:27 Yeah he blinded him with his left hand, held it out there, stepped in like he was going to throw a little slap and right hook
11:32 and then do a powerful left uppercut and caught him. Beautiful combination.
11:35 And a good third round, a strong third round there from Forrest.
11:41 This is the round, probably I would say the first round of the fight when you're looking back on it
11:48 where you say not only did Forrest continue the jab but really came back with some power punches
11:55 downstairs with that left that you mentioned. There it is.
11:58 That seemed to have bothered him a little bit I think.
12:01 Yep. And there's that smile. Like I said, you said no means yes.
12:04 You hear it all the time in boxing. When you get a reaction, that means you probably did something.
12:10 That was a really unique way that Jerry used his left power shot to hold it out to the blind
12:16 and then just took a little off slapping right hook to get his attention and followed right back up
12:21 with a left uppercut.
12:23 [crowd noise]
12:25 Forrest weighed in coming into this fight at 228. Like I said, he looks like he's in tremendous shape.
12:31 He's in better shape than I've seen some of older Jerry Forrest fights.
12:35 I wonder if this is a lighter Jerry Forrest.
12:38 I was messing with him in the back, told him he's the best around to become a free for right.
12:41 Mm-hmm.
12:43 You can start to see the energy here as we're going into the fourth round.
12:47 Forrest still looks in great condition and still pumping that jab.
12:51 Jerry told me he certainly couldn't lose that much weight. He definitely didn't want to lose that much of his money
12:57 and the price he's going for heavyweight because...
12:59 There's Hall gets in with the jab.
13:02 Forrest got a rough strike to the body again by Forrest.
13:05 And followed an over the top kind of left jab that looked like Hall connected, but he came right back.
13:11 [crowd noise]
13:14 They're right in our living room here. Tied up a little bit, but Hall's working on the break here.
13:18 Smart veteran move.
13:20 [crowd noise]
13:22 I think that's the thing as a southpaw. You've got some of the unique ways to land that left hand on the river.
13:27 It isn't presented to an orthodox fighter.
13:31 There's some right hand that is getting in there for Hall.
13:34 Look at short right uppercut and followed by an overhand right.
13:37 Close distance, so not a lot of power on them, but they look like they're getting in there.
13:41 [crowd noise]
13:43 Forrest goes with a left to the body. Good response.
13:46 [crowd noise]
13:48 Left hooks, left strikes, left uppercuts.
13:50 [crowd noise]
13:52 Hall does have... He's found a hook in that right hand up top.
13:55 That's a good body shot too. You're exactly right.
13:58 They are really letting it fly now. The pace has picked up in the fourth round.
14:02 Body shot. Forrest connected on a good body shot there.
14:07 I think maybe that's why Hall's a little tentative to throw that right to the head,
14:12 even though he's found a home for it.
14:14 That left hand is coming under it with such velocity as a counter from Forrest.
14:19 I'd want to keep my right elbow home also if I was getting hit in a river like that.
14:23 Exactly. You're exactly right.
14:25 Let's not forget, these guys are heavyweights. One punch could turn the lights out.
14:31 [crowd noise]
14:43 Now Hall moving forward, pushing the jabs.
14:46 [crowd noise]
14:53 Forrest came on back, did some body shots in there.
14:56 Another, looks like opportunity to the body.
15:00 [crowd noise]
15:03 This is some really high quality stuff for both fighters there, Kujo.
15:07 [crowd noise]
15:10 I think Hall's going to need a big 20 seconds here by my estimation to dig out of this one.
15:14 [crowd noise]
15:35 Forrest sneaks in another good shot at the end of the round.
15:39 [crowd noise]
15:44 Looks like Forrest has put together two good rounds here in the third and the fourth.
15:51 Just a lot of different variations on his attack, a lot of different variations on his punches,
15:56 but he really has started to follow up, not just on the jab,
16:01 but to following up with different combinations of punches after the jab.
16:05 I think the left straight to the body is really making the difference now for Jerry.
16:10 He's had a lot of success stabbing in those right there,
16:14 and Jerry's stabbed in a couple of different places.
16:16 Jerry's been having a lot of success on the straight left jab, stabbing in those right there.
16:22 And a really animated corner, you couldn't see it on the fight TV cameras,
16:27 but an animated corner in the Hall camp here,
16:32 Robert Hall Jr.'s camp was really kind of trying to motivate Robert to do a little bit more in that corner.
16:40 [crowd noise]
16:46 And he came right after two jabs to the top, and I think you're exactly right.
16:52 The more Hall presses that jab up top, the more there's opportunity for Forrest to go underneath.
16:58 [crowd noise]
17:08 A sneaky right hand in there by Forrest.
17:12 I feel like Robert's got to bite the ship here and start to slip away from him again.
17:17 And I think that's why you saw that animation in the corner of Hall.
17:22 [crowd noise]
17:44 And now it's Forrest that's smiling at Hall.
17:48 [crowd noise]
18:06 There's a good right hand by Hall.
18:09 And a jab, but then Forrest pushing the action as well.
18:13 Hall is in a unique position, because it does seem the more he pushes the action,
18:21 it's probably where he wants to be in the fight, yet it opens him up for counterattacks like this from Forrest.
18:27 [crowd noise]
18:35 And it opens up the more it seems like Hall pushes the action and pumps that jab, right?
18:40 [crowd noise]
18:53 Hall's got to take the page right there as Forrest stabbing underneath the collar.
18:57 Absolutely, it's a good call and you just saw it just there.
19:02 [crowd noise]
19:21 These are big men, but you've got to be impressed with Forrest's movement, his feints,
19:28 the way that he's just keeping his energy level high through five rounds.
19:33 [crowd noise]
19:44 Well, and I think the difference is Hall seeing that round after a pretty animated corner,
19:52 he seemed to have come out with an agenda, a really strong agenda that at the very least
19:57 he wasn't going to let Forrest dictate that last round,
20:00 and I think there was some really good action that took place as a result of that.
20:06 [crowd noise]
20:10 I feel like if I was Hall, I'd be trying to get a lot more left hook heavy,
20:14 that way I could keep my right hand at home, keep my elbow down and stop eating that left hand to the body.
20:19 And plus, you know, Forrest is dropping his right hand on the way in,
20:23 although from that southpaw stance he can use that front shoulder to deflect it a little bit.
20:27 I just feel like he killed two birds with one stone instead of trying to establish that right straight.
20:32 Keep that right hand at home, keep that elbow there so you stop getting hit with those clean liver shots
20:36 and try to catch Jerry reaching for him with a left hook.
20:39 Yeah, I mean, it does seem like Hall's best bet is a counterpunch right hand
20:45 that might kind of knock Forrest off balance, right?
20:49 Yeah, but the problem is he's got to move that elbow off the spot
20:52 and Forrest keeps sweeping that left hand underneath every time he does it.
20:55 Yep.
20:56 See, that's what I'd be looking for, that left hook just over there.
21:02 [crowd noise]
21:12 See, Jerry laid the groundwork for this early in the fight by pumping that jab,
21:16 getting Hall's front hand worried about his front hand,
21:21 and now he's stabbing the back hand underneath off that jab.
21:25 There he is again getting in a battle with the front hand.
21:28 [crowd noise]
21:34 Oh, big right hand by Hall as well.
21:37 [crowd noise]
21:39 Forrest gets a sneaky one in off the break,
21:41 but it was a good right hand, you mentioned it, by Hall there.
21:45 [crowd noise]
21:51 Hall's only changing tactics slightly this round, moving forward with his toes.
21:55 And I would still like to see Forrest stay consistent with that stab to the body, right?
22:02 Seems like he's gone away from that the last two rounds.
22:05 Maybe that's why Hall's got up on his toes,
22:07 maybe he feels like controlling the distance is taking that away.
22:10 [crowd noise]
22:14 He pumped two strong, Hall pumped two strong jabs in there,
22:17 now it turned out to a right hand.
22:19 [crowd noise]
22:21 This is so comfortable, Hall's better in rounds in a while.
22:23 Absolutely.
22:25 [crowd noise]
22:26 We've got going on about a minute left in the round,
22:29 but Hall is really starting to
22:31 [crowd noise]
22:34 look a little bit more comfortable than he had the previous three rounds.
22:38 [crowd noise]
22:54 Referee letting him fight in there on the inside.
22:57 [crowd noise]
23:03 Much of what Hall's done here with his posture,
23:06 the way he's moving the distance and standing,
23:08 discouraged Jerry from stabbing that left hand there.
23:11 Well, it looks like a little bit more of the shell, right?
23:14 Maybe he's bladed his body a lot.
23:16 Yeah, look at that shell.
23:18 I mean, you've seen it with Floyd Mayweather and some others,
23:21 but it looks like a kind of a side fully shell type thing.
23:24 That way he can pull his arm up.
23:26 Yeah, I think that's a good adjustment by Hall.
23:30 It definitely looks to be preventing that strong body shot
23:36 that Mayweather, of course, used the last couple of rounds.
23:39 [crowd noise]
23:41 But now, look, now he's switched out of it.
23:43 Put his glove up a little bit.
23:45 Yeah.
23:47 I feel like I might give Hall that round.
23:50 I think I have given Hall that round,
23:53 and we are through.
23:55 We are through six.
23:57 So by my estimation, I think Hall will probably
24:00 need to win these next two rounds for a draw.
24:04 I've got the fight scored right now.
24:08 Four rounds to two for Jerry Forrest.
24:13 [crowd noise]
24:16 And we go into...
24:18 This is an eight round fight.
24:21 We're going into, I guess...
24:23 Seven.
24:25 Yeah. Do we call it the championship rounds?
24:28 Do we call the last two rounds...
24:30 No, it's not, right? It's only the 11 to 12.
24:32 Are those the championship rounds?
24:34 No, no.
24:35 All right. All right. I'm with you.
24:38 It's much expensive.
24:40 Justin Harrison and I were in the back talking.
24:42 As much experience as I have, I have 30-10 rounds.
24:45 I've never fought a 12 round fight.
24:47 You've never fought a 12 round fight.
24:50 And we are in the seven.
24:53 This is our co-main event,
24:55 Jerry Forrest versus Robert Hall Jr.
24:59 [crowd noise]
25:03 [crowd noise]
25:06 They're co-main.
25:08 [crowd noise]
25:10 Oh!
25:12 [crowd noise]
25:15 They're letting him work on the inside.
25:17 You can hear the Forrest camp yelling at the referee to separate him.
25:21 What do you think of that when you see them together like that, Kujo?
25:24 I know one thing.
25:26 That female foul protector that Robert Hall's wearing
25:28 is not flattering coming up his back.
25:32 [laughs]
25:33 The crowd is getting more than one show here.
25:36 I'm not sure why Robert went back to this high guard.
25:39 Maybe he feels like offensively it's better for him.
25:42 He is trying to blade his body a bit more than he was previously.
25:46 Nice up hook.
25:48 Short left hook.
25:50 That's what I was calling for earlier.
25:52 Short left hook for Hall there.
25:54 I feel like Hall should stay with that hand down covering the body.
25:59 I mean, it really slowed Forrest's attack down when he was standing that way.
26:04 Oh, they're sneaky on the break.
26:06 If they're not going to break him,
26:08 these guys are both throwing right hands off the break there.
26:11 [crowd noise]
26:22 There he goes back with the hand down.
26:24 He's back to it. He just mentioned it.
26:27 He switched it up in this round.
26:28 He's given two looks in this round.
26:30 [crowd noise]
26:31 But there's Forrest there.
26:33 I couldn't tell if that was a punch or a little bit of a stumble.
26:37 [crowd noise]
26:42 Now Forrest has seen something because he's going after him now.
26:46 [crowd noise]
26:52 And there's Forrest again.
26:55 Another right hand.
26:56 [crowd noise]
26:58 Oh, big left shot there by Forrest.
27:01 [crowd noise]
27:04 Oh, and now Hall is bleeding out of the nose.
27:09 [crowd noise]
27:12 Big round for Jerry Forrest here.
27:15 [crowd noise]
27:26 And there's another sneaky right, sneaky left hand on the break.
27:31 Oh, my goodness.
27:35 And now Hall is leaning on him.
27:38 Oh, there we go.
27:39 They're both playing a clean shot there.
27:43 A lot of action in this seven.
27:46 But Forrest really seeing something here.
27:52 Yeah, Forrest has about an inch amount of a lead at this point.
27:55 [crowd noise]
27:58 Hey, I'm going to tell you, they threw a lot of leather that round.
28:01 That was the most action we've seen in the entire fight.
28:04 They threw a lot of leather that round.
28:07 Jerry Forrest, though,
28:11 I feel like
28:13 for the first time in the fight,
28:15 you could see, landed some, I mean,
28:18 he's landed punches throughout the fight,
28:20 but that round landed a combination of punches.
28:23 He busted Hall open a little bit.
28:25 Seemed like Hall was bleeding a little bit from his nose.
28:27 Oh, yeah, he kind of did what I was talking about.
28:30 I thought Dusty was setting up.
28:32 He had stabbed that left underneath so much
28:34 and he bent down like he was going to throw it,
28:36 but he turned it into an overhand.
28:39 And I mean, black for a better word,
28:41 he exploded Robert Hall with that punch.
28:44 He did, absolutely did.
28:46 And now, ladies and gentlemen,
28:48 we are into the eighth and final round.
28:51 And what some may call the championship.
28:54 Some may call the championship round.
28:57 They're going to touch him up
28:59 before this final championship round here.
29:01 That was a referee's question.
29:03 [laughter]
29:06 [crowd noise]
29:09 Gary's going back to pumping the jab,
29:11 just like what he said to Peyton
29:13 a little bit earlier in the fight.
29:14 It's back to round one, isn't it?
29:16 [crowd noise]
29:20 And now, if your Halls can't,
29:22 you had to tell him, you got to change the tenor of this thing.
29:25 Probably need a knockout, right?
29:27 Or two knockdowns, at least.
29:29 [crowd noise]
29:32 Oh, and there's a right hand.
29:35 He's in a right hand from Hall.
29:36 [crowd noise]
29:40 And there's a stab to the body from Forrest.
29:43 [crowd noise]
29:55 And again, we don't like to harp on things
29:57 that are not actually in the ring in the last round.
30:00 But it is a little disappointing
30:03 that there's a second warning for flash photography
30:05 in a big fight like this.
30:07 [crowd noise]
30:21 Probably gotta make something big here.
30:23 [crowd noise]
30:27 And I don't know, again,
30:29 like we were mentioning with some of the previous fights,
30:32 Robert Hall needs something big.
30:34 But I don't know if Forrest is giving him the opportunity
30:36 to really throw something big at him.
30:39 - Yeah, I feel like, to a degree,
30:41 maybe Robert is prone to the fact
30:44 that it's gonna take a degree of luck here.
30:46 He's hoping that Jerry makes a fatal mistake
30:50 which doesn't appeal to him, of course.
30:53 - I mean, there's one minute left in this fight.
30:57 [crowd noise]
31:00 And Forrest is still pumping the jab.
31:02 There is-- Hall tried to sneak a right hand in there.
31:06 [crowd noise]
31:10 And that blood started to form again from Hall's nose.
31:14 [crowd noise]
31:24 He didn't. He overreached a bit with that right hand.
31:27 - Still gotta give him a lot of credit
31:29 for just packing it in.
31:31 - I know. Neither one of these guys--
31:33 These guys are fighting like the warriors that they are.
31:36 And let's not forget, Robert Hall has got a 14-1 record.
31:40 And he does not want to lose.
31:42 [crowd noise]
31:50 And Forrest is moving forward, getting close together.
31:53 This is gonna be it right here.
31:56 Last period there by Forrest.
31:59 And there's the bell. That ends the fight.
32:03 [crowd noise]
32:05 I don't-- I really don't know how you scored that round, Kujo.
32:08 What did you have for that one? - Yeah, I think Jerry won.
32:10 You know, I think Jerry won that fight twice.
32:12 This was probably one of the easier fights to score tonight.
32:15 I thought the rounds were pretty explanatory.
32:20 I had 78-74 for Jerry Forrest.
32:23 - I've got it. Yes.
32:26 - Six rounds to two for Jerry Forrest again.
32:30 - It is possible that Jerry got 79, though.
32:34 - Hey, look. Ladies and gentlemen, it's possible.
32:36 It's anything. It's possible.
32:38 You've seen some crazy things, Kujo.
32:41 - Well, I was prepped for a lot of interesting decisions tonight.
32:45 But every decision that I thought the way it would turn out
32:48 happened exactly. I've had great scoring tonight.
32:51 - We've had quality-- not just scoring, quality refereeing,
32:55 quality officials, a live, live crowd here in Richmond, Virginia.
33:01 It has been a really, really excellent night at the fights.
33:05 - Oh, yeah. It was a great card from top to bottom
33:07 with the exception of one mismatch.
33:09 But outside of that, I think the price of admission
33:14 was earned tenfold.
33:17 - Absolutely.
33:19 And we are waiting now for the final decision
33:24 of the final fight of the evening.
33:28 And so, let's quickly talk about this.
33:37 What would you say is next?
33:40 I mean, Jerry Forrest, like you said,
33:42 has fought in just about every big name in heavyweight boxing,
33:45 fought on just about every platform.
33:48 If he gets the win as expected, he moves to 27-2-1.
33:53 Where do you think that puts him?
33:55 Do you think he needs a little bit additional fights
33:58 before he's right back up there?
34:00 - I mean, he could. I mean, what I would do is if Zane,
34:03 who he has a draw against, defeats Joyce again in their rematch--
34:06 - For the rematch, yep.
34:08 - I would absolutely, if I was him,
34:11 full court press to get that rematch.
34:13 So, is that a win over Zane?
34:16 If that puts you, you're a title challenger.
34:20 You find yourself fighting Deontay Wilder, Tyson Fury,
34:23 Anthony Joshua, Matt Hill.
34:26 - Let's take it to the ring.
34:29 - At a two-heavyweight, over eight rounds, fantastic fight.
34:33 Judge James Ansborough has the fight, 79-73.
34:36 Judge Brian Costello has the fight, 77-75.
34:40 And Judge Mark D. Atilio has the fight, 79-73.
34:45 Winner by unanimous decision...
34:48 Jerry "Smoggum" Torres!
34:54 [cheers and applause]
34:57 - Keep going, keep going!
35:00 Keep going!
35:03 - Let's go!
35:05 Let's go!
35:07 - Get the lead, y'all!
