00:14The Middle Eastern community here in San Diego, California has been waiting a long time for this young man Johnny Mansoor
00:21The man they know as magic to make his professional debut. He does it in his hometown the first
00:29Of his family to be born in the United States of America and here he is making his dream come true
00:36to become a
00:37professional fighter
00:40You got some good size on him
00:42man, so
00:44This size and who did you hear the crowd? I was last I was like, is this stuff? Is this the main event?
00:52My goodness
00:54You
00:56You know, he told me his family his mom and dad really didn't want him to box
01:00but they relented once they saw his dedication and
01:04his achievements in the game and said, okay, we'll support you now, they're his biggest fans and
01:11You see how the community has shown up for Johnny magic Mansoor
01:16Mansoor Mansoor is a tall tall
01:19Long fighter, but he likes to come forward. He likes to get aggressive
01:24See right now doodle still hasn't countered yet, but he you know, he's being patient staying composed and relaxed
01:31You can tell he has some experience
01:34Yeah, doodle in his ninth professional fight and I mentioned the fact that he's deaf when he's outside the ring
01:41He wears a hearing aid, but inside the ring
01:45He is completely deaf
01:48And sort through a combination at the air man
01:54No shadowboxing, yeah, yeah eating here with anything I thought that's a nice jab
02:02But you can see how impatient he is this is pro debut, of course and he's fighting in front of his own town crowd
02:11Oh nice counter right there from
02:14Mansoor as doodle was looking to land a shot of his own doodle landed his as well
02:18Clipped him in between some of those shots from Mansoor are wide wide punches
02:23Got to be careful with that got to learn how to tighten those up. It's his debut
02:26However in the future got to continue to get better over and over and over again
02:32Practicing the basics tighten up those punches a bit
02:35But I do like his aggressiveness
02:38And he's keeping his distance pretty well
02:40I
02:52Adrenaline pumping through Mansoor
02:55You hear the crowd here
02:58Anything he does Tim it's gonna elicit a response from the crowd. Even if it's not really that effective as of yet, of course
03:05I'm
03:07Looking at his feet got to work on his footwork a little bit as well
03:12Crossing his feet as he's moving right moving his left foot first, you know, these are little things man
03:17I'm gonna like talk to guys on TV and when they watching different shows and things
03:23They're talking to me about all the bad things that are going on
03:26And when I watch boxing all I see is is the bad in a fighter or the flaws in the fighter
03:35Someone who's gonna want to make the flaws in a fighter show up tonight is a man who came in with this flawless blinged out
03:43BMW
03:44Fighting for his first world title tonight the number one lightweight contender for the WBO been that way for a long time
03:52Representing Ukraine on a night. That's already been huge for Ukrainian boxing Dennis
03:59Berinchik
04:00He believes more now than he did when he before he got here
04:04absolutely 2012 Olympic silver medalist for Ukraine part of that team that was brought up by
04:12Anatoly Lomachenko that included Loma
04:15Oleksandr Usyk who is now the undisputed heavyweight champion Sergei Derevyanchenko and
04:21Oleksandr Volzhik all champions. He's the only one yet to be crowned
04:25Can he make it happen tonight in our main event against Emanuel El Vaquero Navarrete?
04:31He has what it takes sure does got that pedigree and last guy that gave
04:35Navarrete a run for his money was Olympic gold medalist
04:38Conceicao. Robson Conceicao his last opponent prior to that it was two-time Mexican Olympian Oscar Valdez
04:46Navarrete in there for the third consecutive time against Olympia. Yes
04:51With an opportunity to make history for Mexico and become a four-division champion, you see the inflammation
04:58Just on the right side of the face of Anel Dudo
05:04Mansoor got some speed on
05:06No, gotta work. We got to work on some accuracy, but he does got some speed and he's he does a shot away from
05:11The action he likes to dictate the pace. He likes to be first nice body shot right there
05:17One way to find that Mansoor told me that
05:20his
05:21The way he lives by he says I had to overcome so much as an amateur
05:25You have to beat number one to become number one. He was number one at 132, but throughout his career
05:31He gets in the same bracket as a top seed whether it be Shushu
05:36Carrington Mark Castro Rashid Jefferson
05:39They're all pros now
05:41But he hopes to continue in their undefeated path
05:46A
05:53Lot of flash but the substance
05:56Is still yet to be developed here early on from Johnny Mansoor. Yeah, you know when he when he attacks one footwork
06:06Balances a little bit off and then also no weight behind his punches a lot of arm punches
06:13So that that's a that's a technical thing he can work on that nice left hook there
06:17But he was lunging in but coming from but coming from the amateurs you expect this man
06:22And this got to be trained over and over and over again. I remember coming into the pros. It was like
06:29Six months of working on the basics, you know, Joel Diaz had me change because I had that amateur style
06:35He said nope, you're not going into a pro fight with the amateur style. We've got a fight like a pro
06:40You need to sit down on your jab and sit down on your punches
06:54We'll love to see doodle do a little bit more right now he's
07:00He has opportunities after my sword let's let's his combinations fly
07:04He does have opportunities to be able to land counters, but he's choosing not to
07:08They're switching Southpaw now, yeah, but what for what? Yeah, I mean, so we gotta let him go
07:17These last the last two opponents have been last two opponents have been gunshot
07:32Johnny Mansoor making the San Diego local hometown fans happy
07:39Giovanni
07:40Santi young also born here in San Diego, California will be fighting for the interim
07:47WBO welterweight title that will soon become vacant after Terrence Crawford fights
07:55In August and in his last fight, he put on an impressive performance against Alexis Rocha. Now, he's ready for a title shot. I
08:03I
08:06Went in there motivated, you know knowing everything that was on the line
08:10He was number one and I knew that beating him. I would take that spot and it would lead me
08:16To a world title that just drove me to want to work harder man. I want to show something want to prove myself
08:23I've been training so hard for this, but it's here now. I said it said he was gonna have a world champ
08:29I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna lead the way
08:33And
08:35Giovanni Santillan
08:37Clear the path for a young man like Johnny Mansoor to also dream of becoming a world champion for San Diego, California
08:45Here is Mansoor the former number one ranked amateur at a hundred and thirty two pounds for Team USA
08:51In his pro debut against an L doodle
08:55short
08:56Left hook and now a right uppercut from Mansoor who's maybe starting to find his rhythm a little bit better and
09:02Kind of get into his game
09:06Yeah, because doodle now is trying to get get aggressive he's trying to close that distance on Mansoor Mansoor
09:11It has a good job of keeping this distance. That's one thing that he does extremely well
09:15Knows how to keep his range
09:17He can fight coming forward and still keep his range at the same time
09:20But do you see him get out right there using his legs to escape?
09:26He's got good instincts and good reflexes as well
09:30It's another positive thing that I see from Mansoor
09:33But doodle again having a hard time getting past that reach of Mansoor and those punches are blazing. They're quick
09:40Yeah, they are quick. The fans love it when he just shoe shines a little bit. Oh nice right there
09:46And he set that up punctuated by a three punch combination
09:49And
09:55Yeah, there's a difference there's a huge difference between being fast and quick Amir Khan was fast
10:02My gosh that dude was fast
10:04You know
10:05Being quick is being quick to the point to the time
10:11They'll get your reactions are quick. You see how I was not quick to the target
10:15See how I see how you step right real quick caught a little angle doodle wasn't set we being one two right down the middle
10:27Really why would those shots don't mentor?
10:30He'll develop it. You know if he has the right the right coaches, you know, that's extremely important
10:35People don't realize that if you're gonna turn in pro with your amateur coach
10:39You'll need some professional help if they trained anybody that we know you need to go need some professional help
10:45I'm not saying that it's not possible it we've seen it
10:48We have we have the exceptions, but it's more important for you to have that
10:52professional coach or trainer to get you to the top once quit coach
10:59Berlin Kearney's gym at age 10 because he felt he was dedicating too much time to his cousin
11:04Julius
11:06And then his coach said look don't get mad to the parents
11:10They were like we don't like him to quit and they're like no imagine this young man at 10 years old was making a decision
11:16On his career. You got to respect them. Eventually he came back, but he's like I had to respect the little man
11:22That's pretty cool
11:36What do you say we take a listen to the corner of Johnny Mansell
11:41the Berlin Kearney
11:44All right, listen, listen, it's okay listen when you do one
11:54He follow you bang stick that you can slide it doesn't matter
12:11Hey coming he coming he coming he come with the heat today, okay, he come with the heat he desperate
12:31Here the chance for Johnny Johnny here and Johnny Mansell making his pro debut
12:36Will he go the difference here?
12:38And around number four
12:41And but although there's no there's no shade being thrown on
12:45Mansour's trainers at all. There's no shade. No, I'm just giving my honest opinion, you know about the situation
12:52My father trained me, you know any amateurs as well. I've had other amateur coaches, but when I
12:59Decided to turn professionally. I seek the professional trainer and that was Joelle Diaz
13:05so
13:06That helped me, you know, and then and my father could have done it, but I don't think my father
13:11Knew how and he was smart enough to know that that we need to go
13:15Well, we're gonna see that in our co-main event
13:17We mentioned Giovanni Santillan his father memo Santillan put his ego aside about seven fights ago and asked Robert Garcia
13:24To train his son because he says not only did I take my son to get great sparring at our GPA
13:30I saw how he works and that's what I wanted for my son
13:34But you see the transformation in him
13:36You're doing that right the great sparring the knowledge that Robert Garcia brings into the ring as well. I mean, that's important
13:44It's a little bit of showmanship here from
13:47Magic Johnny Mansoor. Yeah, he depends heavy on reflexes, you know fights with his hands down a bit
13:53He likes to have a good time. He's a showboater good mover good legs
13:58Again got him work work on sit not sitting down on the shots
14:02He's a big fan of Vasily Omochenko now. He uses footwork to create angles
14:06He's doing it there, but Loma showed he also sits on his punches like he did against Campos's last weekend
14:19And look he's gonna have to learn how to keep that distance and keep that distance extremely well because if he if he doesn't have
14:25A punch man. A lot of guys are not gonna be afraid to just step to him and and whether all of that and come back
14:31with offense
14:33You have doodle that doesn't know how to cut off the ring
14:36Well, but as you continue to step, you know move forward in your career
14:40You're gonna fight guys that know how to cut off that ring
14:43Slapping short right sets up a flurry for Mansoor
14:47So good legs good angles way to get himself out of the corner good hand speed again
14:53Decent timing
14:55Look at that uppercut. That's creative. That's real creative right there. I like that
15:02Step back got a little distance for himself a nice uppercut. Oh nice combination right there that right was solid at the end again a
15:12Lot of things you got to work on it getting rid of that amateur
15:15You know pity Pat start sitting down on his shots a little bit more
15:18Nice overhand, right?
15:21But you're right the arm punches
15:26He's got a lot of developing to do but yeah, but I have a lot of time but I like his frame
15:30I like his you know what? I mean? I like I like his form. I like I like what he's doing
15:35I like you got caught with that left hook right there
15:38But there's a lot to work. There's a lot to work with man
15:41Yeah, there is and when you put people in the stands, come on now, they can work with you man
15:46Yes, they will work with you
15:49Absolutely, it's a good start to the career of Johnny Mansoor
15:55The crowd here in San Diego, California
15:58Definitely showing him love they love him. They absolutely love him
16:02There's a huge following here. And you know what he did well
16:06With the crowd as well thinking pro debut fighting here at home. He handled it with flying colors
16:13Take a look at some of the best action from this young man. Yeah, it's just good combinations
16:18I mean he outclassed Dudo. Dudo didn't have a chance. Dudo couldn't even close the gap on him
16:22He had no clue how to but you see the elucidation right there. He depends a lot on his reflexes now
16:28You get somebody that know how to step deep inside then you got problems
16:32However, this is the level that he's at right now, but he did great man for his first professional fight his debut
16:37Using his jab, controlling range outside. He landed some crisp combinations as well to the head and body
16:42He had some nice little setups off his back foot like that shot right there. Beautiful
16:47beautiful combination
16:49But he got a lot to be happy happy with and also he got a lot to learn
16:53But as far as just him as a fighter, I think he's decent, you know, and we'll see we'll see what's next for him
16:59All right, Mark Chinook is ready with the judge's decision
17:03Ladies and gentlemen after four rounds here inside Pechanga Arena, we go to the judges scorecards for the official decision
17:11Jose Colvillan, Chris Cleavon and Benoit Husserl all have it 40 to 36
17:17For your winner by unanimous decision
17:20In his professional debut Johnny
17:24Magic Mansoor
17:26Johnny Mansoor comes away with the dream of victory in his professional debut
17:33He does it in front of his hometown fans sends them all home. Happy hope they'll stick around because we've got a lot
