00:00 >> All right, gentlemen, to receive the instructions in the dressing room, know what I expect.
00:08 Good, clean fight.
00:09 Legal punches here for you, legal punches here for you.
00:12 Touch gloves, good luck to both of you.
00:20 >> Art Pereira, an impressive young fighter, stands 6 foot tall at junior welterweight.
00:27 He gets amazing sparring, Virgil Ortiz, Brandon Lee, Raymond Murataya, but Kevin Soto out
00:34 in Dallas, Texas, working with Maurice Hooker, started boxing at 8 years old because he was
00:39 getting bullied, Tim.
00:40 You said, guess what, it worked.
00:42 I put a stop to it.
00:44 >> Absolutely.
00:45 You know, Soto, you can always tell a fighter's style and what he's going to bring just by
00:52 where he comes from.
00:54 He's from Texas, so you know that he's going to be aggressive throughout the night.
01:00 As far as Pereira goes, right now, what's going on right now is just both guys respecting
01:05 each other's skill.
01:06 Not a whole lot is going on, but you can feel, you being a fighter, you can feel that, how
01:12 smart your opponent is just by the movements and the way they're reacting to your movements.
01:20 >> Pereira had an extensive amateur career, 6-time national champion with over 100 amateur
01:24 bouts.
01:25 On the other side, Kevin Soto only had around 30 amateur bouts.
01:30 He works in pest control, 9-5, and then trains after.
01:34 He says, I want to exterminate this Pereira kid.
01:37 Oh, nice right, left from Pereira.
01:41 >> Perfectly timed right there.
01:45 Both are, simply look like they're counterpunchers.
01:48 Both are waiting right now.
01:49 This is a fill-out round.
01:50 It's usually to see what your opponent is trying to do, what he knows.
01:54 You know, you want to start off with your jab, and you want to slowly start increasing
01:57 your activity through the course of the fight.
02:00 >> Yeah, Tim, you know, we call this a filling-out round, but I think that Soto is posing too
02:05 much.
02:06 He's looking, but he's not doing anything, and I think that's what Pereira took advantage
02:09 of right in that spell.
02:11 >> So what Pereira took advantage of was Soto not understanding his distance, and a lot
02:17 of times fighters, when they get into that mid-range, they don't know what to do, you
02:21 know, and most of the time, they'll shoot a punch, and they get countered.
02:24 It's a perfect opportunity to get countered because you're close enough to your opponent.
02:29 >> Just like that.
02:30 Nice combination and short left hook from Pereira.
02:32 >> So when you have Soto, and he shoots that jab out long, and he has to bring it back
02:35 to his face, there's a countering opportunity, especially at mid-range, for Pereira, and
02:42 that's what he's making, that's what he's making him pay.
02:44 >> That triple jab from Pereira staying active here in the first round.
02:48 >> Again, look at the feet get close and close, and then he's at that mid-range now, just
02:52 watch him shoot a jab out and see if there's a counter going to come from Pereira.
02:56 >> Now a good jab from Soto.
03:00 >> See that mid-range distance is dangerous.
03:03 That's where most knockouts occur, mid-range.
03:07 There's the counter again off the jab that time, taking advantage of that right hand
03:12 of Soto being down.
03:13 >> And Tim, you talked about the intelligence, and you can see how smart Pereira is in reading
03:19 what Soto is going to do.
03:21 >> Yes.
03:22 And he's doing a little bit more as well.
03:24 He's moving laterally, so he's changing the angles.
03:27 Every time he steps left or right, he's changing the angle slightly, getting off that line,
03:32 which we call the 50/50.
03:34 >> Pereira gets great work at the RGBA Academy out in Riverside.
03:39 Let's listen in to Robert Garcia.
03:40 >> I listen and not even look for a knockout.
03:41 If it comes, it's gonna come.
03:42 >> Okay.
03:43 >> Okay?
03:44 >> I'm not gonna let him off.
