00:00 (crowd cheering)
00:02 - Will Sulis, our experienced referee.
00:14 He is in charge, our three ringside judges,
00:16 Adam Hite, Steve Scott, David Craig.
00:19 Here we are, scheduled for 10 two minute rounds.
00:22 Yes, 10 two minute rounds for the women
00:26 in our main event sponsored by Oxworks.
00:30 Here we go, Robertson.
00:32 The one you can't see in the camouflage,
00:35 Gelato, in the purple and gold.
00:40 Both right handers.
00:42 Robinson nine wins, one loss.
00:47 On home soil once again.
00:50 Gelato, not here for tacos and tequilas.
00:56 He's here for fights.
00:59 He's here for a world title
01:00 because the IBO Super Flyweight title is the reward.
01:04 - She's trying to do it again, Andy.
01:07 Obviously a previous world champion already.
01:10 So she's trying to get a second world title.
01:13 So it's a tough test for Taylor Robertson,
01:15 obviously having her first tilt of world honors tonight.
01:19 And she's got a Mexican in front of her
01:21 and everyone that knows anything about boxing
01:23 knows that Mexicans always come to fight.
01:25 (crowd cheering)
01:28 - Robinson avoiding the right hand there from Gelato.
01:36 Left hander a little low from Robinson at the moment.
01:42 The right hander's nice.
01:44 Showing a controlled aggression to start with.
01:47 See the left hand out from Taylor Robinson.
01:51 She's just trying to figure out
01:54 exactly where she needs to be.
01:56 We call it finding your range.
01:58 - Just measuring with that lead hand like you said, Andy.
02:01 Just giving her opponent something to look at
02:04 because she looks like a little bull
02:06 and I think it's only a matter of time
02:08 until she starts marking forward with it.
02:10 But that was a really good right hand there
02:12 from Taylor Robinson.
02:13 - Final 15 seconds of the round.
02:20 (crowd cheering)
02:22 - Gelato, she wants to fight as much as she wants to box.
02:32 It's called being a Mexican.
02:36 (crowd cheering)
02:38 Back to the corner as we go.
02:39 - It was always gonna happen, Andy.
02:41 I mean, these Mexicans, they only know one way
02:43 and that's forward.
02:44 They've thrown plenty of punches.
02:46 They always come to fight.
02:49 - You can see some highlights of that first round
02:51 and it was a little bit of a timid first round,
02:55 first portion of the round
02:56 and then it started to open up
02:58 towards the second minute of that round
03:01 as both girls started to get their feet,
03:03 started to get comfortable and it started to unload.
03:06 - Live Aussie boxing on free-to-air television.
03:09 We are on seven plus in our next live event,
03:13 Wednesday the 17th of April.
03:16 But in between, Wednesday night is fight night.
03:19 Beyond the ropes, a unique, a very different look
03:24 at the world of professional boxing.
03:27 It is the ultimate reality TV,
03:32 the ultimate reality sport,
03:33 the good guys, the bad guys in professional boxing
03:37 and we bar no one.
03:40 Terrific show last up and our guests were Jeff Horn
03:44 and this young lady, Taylor Robinson.
03:47 We're putting ourselves down here,
03:49 but Taylor Robinson, the star of show number one.
03:52 Just a very unique look, wonderfully spoken,
03:55 beautifully presented.
03:57 She showed us boof heads up, I can tell you that.
04:00 Hope to have Taylor back on the show very, very soon.
04:04 She's got world championship gold on the mind at the moment.
04:12 No surprises here from Gloria Gallardo.
04:15 Mexican, front foot, doesn't know what defense is.
04:19 Doesn't want to learn it.
04:22 She just wants to march forward and throw punches.
04:26 - And the season prior obviously,
04:28 was almost double the fights of Taylor.
04:29 So she's been in there a lot more times than her
04:33 and she knows her way around the ring.
04:34 You can just see the way she plants her feet,
04:37 the way she cuts off the ring.
04:39 She's a very, very experienced girl.
04:41 - Hasn't lost in almost five years, Gallardo.
04:46 So she too, like Alexandra Espinoza,
04:51 on a bit of a high, on a bit of a streak,
04:53 on a run if you want.
04:55 A crowd buying into Taylor Robinson here.
05:02 She loves it.
05:03 Originally a sunny coast girl.
05:09 Spends 20% of her life sleeping, 40% training
05:13 and the other 40% on the beach or surfing.
05:16 Now based here in Brizzy with Glen Azar.
05:20 A natural athlete, mate.
05:28 A very good amateur career.
05:31 And a very disciplined young lady.
05:34 - Both girls having two wins last year.
05:36 So equal experience last year.
05:39 So they're coming into this pretty hot and raring to go.
05:42 Obviously it's quite hard being a female,
05:45 especially in Australia
05:46 because the talent pool's not there as such.
05:48 No, not yet.
05:49 We're hoping that changes very soon.
05:51 So just the two fights for Taylor.
05:54 She's looking to make 2024 a really, really good one
06:00 by starting it off with a world title.
06:03 (crowd cheering)
06:06 - Great listener is Taylor.
06:11 You can see conversing with the coach, Glen Azar.
06:15 - Brett Smith in the corner as well.
06:19 Terrific corner.
06:23 DD there.
06:25 - Yep.
06:27 - We're gonna move into round number three,
06:32 the premier boxing series.
06:34 Live from the Brisbane powerhouse,
06:36 this is our main event sponsored by Oxworks.
06:38 Round three of 10.
06:40 Taylor Robertson in the camouflage.
06:42 Gloria Gallardo from Mexico in the purple and gold.
06:47 And she will just keep coming forward
06:51 until you stop her and until you drop her.
06:53 - That was a good right hand lead there from Taylor,
06:55 catching her opponent as she was coming in.
06:57 That's another good body shot as well.
06:59 (crowd cheering)
07:02 - Robertson, Robertson almost.
07:09 Hoping and formulating your game plan with Glen Azar,
07:15 knowing that you're fighting a Mexican good right hand.
07:19 You can bring the Mexican onto your punches.
07:21 And that's exactly what Taylor's trying to do at the moment.
07:24 She's happy to be boxing on the back foot.
07:27 Gallardo comes in and Robertson goes back.
07:32 - Like I said earlier on,
07:33 you don't have to go finding a Mexican.
07:34 They come to you.
07:35 It's just whether you can combat what comes towards you.
07:39 Because it's easier said than done.
07:41 Because when they come forward,
07:43 throwing lots of punches like Gallardo's doing today,
07:46 it's hard to, hard to combat, that's for sure.
07:50 Oh, good shot there from Taylor Robertson
07:53 as she tries to unload,
07:54 which has got her opponent in the corner.
07:56 Gallardo comes back with her own attrition, however.
08:00 She's very, very good at turning the tide, that's for sure.
08:03 When things aren't going her way,
08:05 Gallardo, she just turns it up.
08:06 - Yep, and good right hand from Gallardo there.
08:09 - Yeah, very good.
08:10 Oh, and another big right hand.
08:12 - It's a bombing right hand from Gloria Gallardo.
08:14 She's a former world champion here in purple and gold.
08:19 Stepped up one weight division.
08:20 I think it's 3.2 kilos difference.
08:23 So really nothing.
08:25 This is championship weight for her.
08:27 - Yep.
08:28 - Good evasion there from Taylor
08:30 as she comes back with her own shots
08:31 to close out that round.
08:32 That's a good, really good round for both girls.
08:35 - Terrific to see my mate Jeff Horn here,
08:43 who has been somewhat hiding the fact
08:47 he's been wearing a moon boot for the last two weeks.
08:51 A former world champion,
08:52 he could beat Manny Pacquiao at Suncorp Stadium.
08:55 He's got a moon boot after a crash on a scooter
08:59 and he was leering up.
09:00 Taking a look at some of the highlights
09:03 from the previous rounds.
09:04 There is Jeff Horn chatting with one of the officials
09:10 in fabulous Phil Austin.
09:13 Jeff will want to get out of that spot pretty quickly
09:18 'cause once Phil Austin nails you down for a chat,
09:21 you're gone for about 45 minutes.
09:24 - You can see the vacant chairs in between them.
09:26 They weren't vacant before, let me tell you.
09:28 - Exactly.
09:29 Here we go, the fight continues.
09:35 Round number four, Taylor Robertson in the camouflage,
09:37 Gloria Gallardo.
09:38 In the purple and gold,
09:42 this is for the IBO Superflyweight world title.
09:46 10 two minute rounds of the journey.
09:50 Robertson tagged on the chin there.
09:52 - And that's where she needs to be.
09:55 That was a good right hand there from Taylor.
09:56 She wants to be in the center ring.
09:57 She's the better boxer out of the two.
09:59 She's just got to keep it long and try and stay center ring.
10:02 Easier said than done, like I said,
10:03 when you've got a Mexican stamping forward
10:04 like she is right now.
10:07 But angles is what's going to beat this girl.
10:09 - Is that what you do?
10:11 Stepping to the side, throwing a punch?
10:13 - There it is, exactly it.
10:15 You just saw a demonstration there from Taylor.
10:17 You throw a punch, you create a different angle
10:19 and you come forward, punches from a different angle.
10:22 Good shots there from Gallardo.
10:24 - Good shots from Gallardo.
10:25 She wore one right on the button from Robertson.
10:29 She's Gallardo.
10:34 - Wow.
10:35 - Is just a machine at the output.
10:38 - And she's the shorter fighter of the two,
10:42 but she's so much thicker than Taylor Robertson.
10:45 - Yes.
10:45 - You can sort of see when she comes forward,
10:47 she's a hard target to move.
10:49 - When you say shorter and thicker,
10:54 and I'm being respectful here,
10:56 but a lot shorter, but a lot thicker.
10:59 And when she came into center,
11:01 and I thought, this is,
11:02 doesn't appear to be a world championship body,
11:07 but she's got plenty of wild right hand.
11:15 - Andrew Ruiz would argue that.
11:17 - Yeah, bingo.
11:18 - Good shots once again over the top.
11:24 Taylor, she's just got to stay on the outside here
11:25 and go back to center ring.
11:26 Good body shot from Taylor as she comes in.
11:29 - Is the body shot the key punch for Taylor Robertson
11:33 as she goes back to the corner with Glenazer,
11:36 Brent Smith and GD?
11:39 - I think the key punch for Taylor Robertson
11:41 is that straight stabbing to the chest,
11:44 because the stabbing to the chest
11:45 stops Gallardo in her tracks.
11:47 When you're coming forward that much,
11:49 you stick the jab out to the chest,
11:52 and all of a sudden the train stops in its tracks.
11:54 So, and I think that's what she's got to get at.
11:57 And then obviously it creates room as well
12:00 for her to get her second shot off,
12:01 which is that power hand.
12:12 - Once again, the next time we are live and ringside,
12:15 Wednesday, April 17, from the Gold Coast,
12:19 the Australian Worldweight title is on the line.
12:21 Lachlan O'Shea and Joel Taylor.
12:24 And don't be surprised if the name Lewis Shadwick
12:27 enters the conversation 24 hours after that fight,
12:32 after an impressive performance over Ben Horn here
12:35 a little earlier tonight.
12:36 This is our main event, Taylor Robertson and Gloria Gallardo.
12:42 Second of our international matchups,
12:44 we had a split decision.
12:46 Jalen Tate and Alexander Espinoza from Ecuador,
12:50 in a semi-mate event that really heated up
12:55 in the final six minutes.
12:57 - He's talking about heating up.
13:02 This first 30 seconds of this fifth round
13:04 has been nothing but hot.
13:06 You can see both girls throwing down.
13:08 There's been plenty of punches thrown
13:09 in this first 40 seconds of this round.
13:12 Gallardo tries to come over the top,
13:15 slipped well by Taylor.
13:16 Oh, good shots from Taylor.
13:19 - Tell you what Taylor Robertson is really good at,
13:23 counter punching, but making those punches count.
13:26 - Yes, yeah, definitely.
13:27 She doesn't waste many shots.
13:28 As you can see, a couple to the body there,
13:30 and then a finish to the head.
13:31 - Good jolting jab there from Gallardo
13:35 in the middle of all that.
13:36 (crowd shouting)
13:39 - I have to say one thing about Taylor.
13:47 She's just standing a little bit too upright for me.
13:49 I think if she bent her knees a little bit,
13:51 she'd be a lot harder target for Gallardo to find,
13:55 and she'll generate a lot more power.
13:57 At the moment, she's standing a little bit tall
13:58 for my liking.
13:59 - Spent a lot of time in Thailand
14:04 under a different coach,
14:06 or a different assisting coach, I guess,
14:10 over the course of this preparation.
14:11 She did two trips over there
14:13 and absolutely loves the variety that Glen Azar,
14:17 her Australian coach and her Phuket coach,
14:21 who is Russian,
14:23 they both just deliver something a little bit different.
14:26 The Russian, no surprise.
14:28 His instructions, his technique, his training,
14:31 it's all about output,
14:33 and that output's gonna be really crucial
14:36 in these next four rounds.
14:37 - Oh, you can see, they're starting to feel the pinch,
14:39 both girls.
14:40 I mean, they've been throwing down since the opening bell,
14:43 like all of our previous fights, to be honest.
14:46 They've all been action-packed.
14:48 But you can see both girls having their success
14:51 throughout that round again.
14:53 Gallardo over the top,
14:58 and then Robertson with the counters.
15:02 (crowd cheering)
15:04 Another great fight.
15:05 - Good example of the work rate of both young ladies,
15:19 because they,
15:21 they're stuffed.
15:24 Now, in Slayman's terms,
15:25 they are really battling,
15:29 trying to get onto their second
15:30 or third wind at the moment.
15:32 As our main event continues,
15:34 the second half of this contest for the IBO championship.
15:38 We are talking super flyweight division.
15:42 Nice jab from Robertson, Gallardo.
15:48 You don't have to look too hard to find where she is.
15:53 She's moving forward,
15:54 and she's a meter and a half
15:56 off the chest of Taylor Robertson.
15:58 - I'll tell you what,
15:59 lucky she can't for Taylor,
16:01 but if Gallardo knew how to cut off the ring,
16:03 she'd be a whole heap of more trouble
16:06 than what she is already,
16:08 because let me tell you,
16:09 Taylor just scooting left and right at ease at any time.
16:13 But if Gallardo knew how to cut the ring off, wow.
16:18 - There hasn't been, from either girl,
16:20 that one big shot yet.
16:23 Neither really marked up.
16:26 I'm quite sure they'll look marked up tomorrow.
16:28 In fact, I know they will.
16:29 Taylor just trying to hold that right hand.
16:35 What I'll tell the Mexicans,
16:38 if you can't keep the mat range,
16:41 then you get them in as close as you possibly can
16:45 to avoid that front foot shuffle
16:47 that is just second nature to them.
16:49 - A couple of good shots down the middle
16:53 for Taylor Robertson throughout that exchange,
16:56 but things are getting desperate.
16:58 That was a good shot there from Gallardo.
17:01 - Tell you what, we're gonna fight here.
17:03 - Yeah, it's well and truly a fight.
17:06 Worthy of a world title, that's for sure.
17:10 Both girls, plenty of heart.
17:13 - Last couple of exchanges of round number six.
17:16 Robertson walks into a right hand.
17:19 - Is that enough to just steal the round there for Gallardo?
17:24 - Yeah, there's a couple of right hands there.
17:26 - More good shots.
17:27 Back to the corners we go.
17:32 This one's turned.
17:35 - Yeah, she's a Mexican warrior, all right.
17:38 You know what you're gonna get from every Mexican.
17:41 And she's delivering again,
17:44 and she's getting stronger by the minute too.
17:47 She's, I think her work rate's increasing,
17:51 her confidence is increasing,
17:53 and that spells bad news for Taylor Robertson,
17:56 who's doing a great job, don't get me wrong.
17:58 She's 70 to 80% of this fight,
18:02 she's been able to keep her off by keeping her long
18:05 and keeping her at the end of the punch,
18:06 but as this fight goes further on,
18:10 that distance is being broken.
18:11 (upbeat music)
18:14 The facial expression hasn't changed on Gloria Gallardo
18:27 from the moment she arrived here at the powerhouse
18:31 to her ring entrance to now.
18:34 It's just business for the Mexican.
18:39 - Wails away to the body, good right hand from Robertson.
18:43 Gallardo needs to produce more of what she produced
18:48 in that last round to make things,
18:52 I think a little interesting,
18:53 closer to the judges scorecards.
18:55 - She's loading up every punch now,
18:57 you can see she's swinging from her hips,
19:00 as you can see, one just missed right there.
19:02 - Gallardo, having to punch the shoulder there.
19:08 - Gallardo, a good body shot there from Gallardo.
19:13 - Robertson gets rocked back with a left hand,
19:16 a straight left.
19:16 - Yeah, Robertson is just gonna hold on here,
19:21 she's getting caught a couple of times over the top now
19:23 by that right hand, and there's another one.
19:25 - Oh, and a big right hand from the Mexican.
19:27 - Yeah, she's starting to come on really hard
19:31 very quickly is Gallardo.
19:32 - 50 seconds remain.
19:37 - That's better from Taylor, keep her at the end of the jab.
19:40 - One above her commentary position, Robertson turning.
19:45 Left hook there from Gallardo,
19:51 Robertson walks into another right hand.
19:53 - Good right hand from Taylor.
19:58 - Those dominant punches, the power punches
20:03 and more punches coming from the Mexican once again
20:06 in round number seven.
20:08 - Yeah, the set up shots have been thrown out the door
20:11 by both girls now, just power hands all around.
20:14 Oh, big right hand once again from Gallardo.
20:16 - Robertson's walked into another one.
20:18 And they are just unloading late in round number seven.
20:25 And we've still got three rounds to go.
20:28 - Wow.
20:34 - Taylor just gonna try and get back on her bike,
20:36 back to the outside where she's the most comfortable
20:39 and the better boxer.
20:41 Like I said, but very easy to say,
20:45 but very hard to do when you've got a Mexican warrior
20:50 charging at you like this.
20:51 And just look at her, look at her punch.
20:54 Her punch that's through the roof, that right hand
20:58 that rocked her back there, you could see.
21:00 Oh, cracking right hand.
21:02 (upbeat music)
21:05 - The face of pain mirrored across the ring.
21:17 Taylor Robertson, Gloria Gallardo.
21:20 They have given us their all for seven rounds,
21:25 but the most important three rounds are still to come.
21:32 - Taylor Robertson in the camouflage, Gloria Gallardo.
21:35 In the purple and the gold, Gallardo from Mexico.
21:39 Robertson right here from Southeast Queensland.
21:42 - This is a scrap now, this is a pub brawl.
21:45 They're just too close to each other and just wailing away.
21:48 You can see Taylor's trying to fight fire with fire here
21:51 just to keep off Gallardo, but she's coming in hot.
21:55 Oh, good shot from Taylor, that's better.
21:58 - Terrific right hand from Taylor Robertson.
22:01 She is all eyes on the right hand of Gallardo
22:05 who found home there, but didn't have the power.
22:08 Is she comfortable enough with a points advantage
22:15 or what she sees as a points advantage?
22:18 Or is she not?
22:22 Does she need to go for more points, Taylor Robertson?
22:26 Because where they believe they're at
22:29 determines what their fight plan is
22:32 for the remaining two and a half rounds.
22:34 And the war continues.
22:36 - I don't think you can protect this lead.
22:38 It's too open, this fight still.
22:41 And it's still two and a half rounds to go.
22:43 - Gee, she's got it chin, Taylor Robertson.
22:47 - Yeah, she does.
22:47 - She has taken some big right hands
22:51 and I'm not gonna say walked through them,
22:52 but she hasn't been buckled.
22:55 - That was a great shot there from Taylor.
22:58 Starting to the body, finishing to the head.
22:59 She needs more of that.
23:00 - Robertson with the right hand.
23:04 Walks into a right hand,
23:06 and it's the return punch.
23:08 Good counter punching, Taylor holding and hitting.
23:11 Last few seconds of the round.
23:14 They are two minute rounds, Belinda.
23:16 10 times.
23:18 2023 will go down as a year where
23:27 maybe the female fights were the best fights,
23:30 not only in Australia, but globally.
23:32 - I agree.
23:33 - Well, I tell you what, 2024 hasn't started too badly.
23:36 This is an indication.
23:38 - It started off with a bang
23:39 because both girls are putting it all out there.
23:42 Let me tell you,
23:44 find me a better fight than this one
23:46 because this is a cracker and it's still got two rounds.
23:49 That's the beauty of it.
23:50 All out war, both girls putting it all on the line,
23:55 leaving it all out there.
23:57 This is a worthy world title
23:59 and the victor will definitely deserve it, that's for sure.
24:02 Or he definitely would have earned it.
24:04 There's no doubt about that.
24:06 - Calvin Jensen, Ken Aitken,
24:13 Lewis Chadwick, Jalen Tate.
24:15 They're our four winners so far tonight.
24:18 Who is our fifth?
24:21 Is it that lady, Gloria Gallardo?
24:25 Or is it Taylor Robertson?
24:27 We have two rounds remaining.
24:32 This is round nine of 10, so four minutes of work.
24:35 Gallardo with the right hand.
24:37 Taylor, her output has increased.
24:40 It did round number eight,
24:41 it will continue to in rounds nine and 10.
24:44 That's what she's worked on for weeks on end in Thailand,
24:48 output, and this is exactly when she needs it.
24:51 - What a scrap, both girls.
24:54 Break!
24:55 Break!
24:56 - Will Surless not taking any nonsense.
24:59 Gallardo overreaches for a right hand as a result.
25:04 Robertson is able to get into a few easy shots there
25:08 already with the two minute round.
25:10 We are halfway through number nine.
25:12 Great right hand from Robertson in the middle of all that.
25:15 - That was good work from Robertson.
25:16 She found a couple of body shots
25:18 and a head shot to finish it off.
25:20 - Halfway mark.
25:22 (crowd shouting)
25:24 - Jeez, they look exhausted.
25:27 I bet they feel exhausted because they are.
25:30 What a fight this has been.
25:31 It's our main event and our first
25:34 as the Premier Boxing Series kicks off on seven plus.
25:39 Gallardo and Robertson just trading, just batting.
25:44 We love that type of thing.
25:48 This is just beautiful.
25:51 30 seconds, round number nine.
25:54 Then we're going to get a 60 second break.
25:58 A breather and it's time to go.
26:00 (crowd shouting)
26:03 Heads clash.
26:07 Punches thrown, the referee steps in.
26:12 One more attack before the bell sounds.
26:16 (crowd shouting)
26:17 The ultimate time.
26:19 (crowd shouting)
26:20 Gallardo, Robertson, they just haven't stopped.
26:24 In fact, the pace, the power and the tempo,
26:28 it has lifted each and every round.
26:30 - Yeah, it's increased every round, no doubt.
26:32 It's just gotten hotter and hotter in there.
26:36 As you can see, the penultimate round,
26:38 round nine of 10 here,
26:40 it was leather on leather on leather.
26:43 It did not stop from both girls.
26:45 The counter from Taylor, the front foot from Gallardo.
26:50 This is a barn burner for the ages.
26:53 I haven't seen a women's fight like this for a long time,
26:57 or especially nationally anyway.
26:58 A crazy, crazy work ethic from both girls.
27:02 - It certainly is both world class athletes.
27:07 And is this young lady on the edge of a dream?
27:13 Dream to become a world champion.
27:17 - Two minutes to put an exclamation point on it.
27:22 Taylor Robertson, Gloria Gallardo.
27:25 And the full house springs the powerhouse down.
27:30 And here we go, picking up exactly
27:35 where we left off previously.
27:37 Robertson with the taste whacked out of her mouth
27:41 with a great left hand from Gallardo.
27:45 Gallardo over the top of the right.
27:47 First half of the fight, to mine, all Taylor Robertson.
27:54 Have the judges seen it?
27:55 Have they seen this second half of the fight?
27:58 - Oh, the main event definitely didn't disappoint,
28:01 let me tell you, because this has been
28:03 the cherry on top of an already great fight card before.
28:07 The work rate has been unmatchable by these two girls.
28:12 As you can see, now Taylor on the front foot,
28:14 that's good because she needs to get in the judges' eyes
28:18 and she needs to steal this last round.
28:20 - Halfway through the final round,
28:22 Robertson, good right hand, Gallardo.
28:26 Just when you think she's out, she throws another bomb back.
28:30 Will Sula separates the ladies once again.
28:33 Gallardo with the left hand this time.
28:36 She's stronger, she's more accurate with the right hand.
28:39 It's that big overhand right that she's looking for.
28:42 Mexicans, they just don't stop.
28:45 We knew that coming in, Taylor Robertson knew that coming in.
28:49 So it's no surprise that she has done brilliantly,
28:52 a great right hand, doubling up there, Gallardo.
28:55 Robertson wears it and wears it well.
28:58 We are inside the final 20 seconds in the battle
29:03 for the RBO Superflyweight World Title.
29:08 And it has turned into an absolute war.
29:13 Taylor Robertson from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia,
29:18 and Gloria Gallardo from Mexico
29:21 have put on an absolute field game.
29:25 What a fight.
29:27 This is the Premier Boxing Series.
29:32 And there is more coming throughout 2024.
29:38 What a way to start it right here on 7 Plus.
29:42 Unbelievable display of courage and fitness by both girls.
29:47 Let me tell you, if she didn't do that training camp
29:51 in Thailand, she'd be on her backside.
29:53 She needed every bit of her reserves
29:55 to get through that fight, and she's done a great job.
29:58 Taylor Robertson, Gloria Gallardo,
30:01 they have finished their war.
30:05 We are gonna take a break.
30:06 We're gonna give you a break,
30:08 and we'll be back very shortly with the official decision.
