00:00Okay, gentlemen. We're going all the way down to the gray here. Letters here. You got my
00:06instructions in the back. Protect yourselves at all times. Listen to my commands. Touch
00:09them up. Back to your corner, gentlemen.
00:13Thomas Taylor, one of the sole arbiter referees, and he does things by the book, just as he
00:18did there, Tim, marking the low blow territory.
00:21That's great. That's what you need to do. A lot more referees need to take that course.
00:28They're stuck in the pass. Absolutely. Round one of a scheduled eight-round
00:34fight. This is the third eight-rounder for D.J. Zamora, who was off, out of the ring
00:42for a while. We saw him on June 21st, and he had been away since July of 2023, came
00:50back with a unanimous decision victory, but his pedigree, Tim, goes back to Roger Mayweather,
00:59who saw him as a young man, seven years old, turning his punches over, and he told his
01:04father, this kid's going to be a champion, and that's the path he's on, as he digs the
01:10body well, turning over that right hook to the ribs.
01:14Look how Zamora's boxing, controlling range outside, still pushing his man backwards,
01:20moving him where he wants him to move to. That's very impressive. I thought that his
01:27opposition that he's going to be facing tonight, watching them on film, he was going to be
01:31a lot more aggressive in coming forward. However, he saw Zamora's last fight, and he realized
01:38he struggles against boxers. However, the boxer that he faced last time out, he wasn't
01:44no slouch. He was a veteran, knew how to survive. He landed his shots as well, but he fought
01:50mostly off the back foot. There you see some inside work right there from the shorter opposition
01:55in Perez. That's where he needs to work, is inside the pocket against Zamora.
02:02Zamora looks to have improved his inside work. What you pick up off of those hard fights,
02:09that fight against Antonio Mesa really taught Zamora several lessons, and he went back to
02:15work in the gym, and he's putting it to practice here.
02:17That's what you want to do. You've got to be adaptive inside the ring, and at this point
02:22in his career, you've got to be able to deal with every single style. Pressure fighters,
02:28smaller fighters like this, you're going to have to face that likes to get underneath
02:31you and put pressure on you and kind of break you down to the ribs. You've got to be able
02:35to deal and adjust in every single fight. So that's why these tests are important, you
02:42know, giving these young fighters the right test at the right time.
02:46We talked about Edgar Belanga and the build up to that fight in our coverage for ESPN
02:50Deportes, how he had taken some shortcuts. He went from C-level fighters, skipped the
02:55B and the A fighters, and went to a pound-for-pound fighter, and you just cannot do that at the
02:59top level.
03:00And you expect Edgar Belanga to know how to win at that level. That was my point that
03:05I was trying to make up there. You're expecting him to win. No, he don't know how to win because
03:10he's never fought at that level. He's never been pushed. He's never been challenged in
03:15that way. So a lot of doubt is produced in the mind of a fighter that lacks experience.
03:24Let's listen in to the corner of DJ Zamora here. Kei Koroma, Emmanuel Flick Savoy, and
03:38DJ Zamora, his father.

15:24Get up.
15:27There you go.
15:29Keep it tight.
15:32Don't load it.
15:33Just let it fly like speed, brother.
15:36Walk left, walk right.
15:38Right.
15:39If it ain't nothing there, Frank, brother.
15:43Listen for the bell.
15:44Run around.
15:48Good.
15:49Good luck.
15:51We are halfway through this fight between DJ Zamora
15:55and Gerardo Antonio Perez.
15:57It only gets interesting when Perez decides to step in
16:01and let his hands go and take risks,
16:03but as far as who's controlling the action
16:06and where the fight is taking place is Zamora.
16:10He's doing a great job with his jab,
16:12coming straight down the middle with his combinations,
16:15even digging downstairs to the body.
16:20The importance of digging downstairs is, of course,
16:23to weaken your opposition,
16:25but what I like here is that I see him trying to cut off the ring.
16:29That's another way to cut off the ring than just stepping
16:32and closing that exit off.
16:34You can actually punch towards where your opposition is going.
16:37I've seen a lot of that from him tonight, which is good,
16:40which shows me that he is improving
16:43and he's working on his mistakes
16:44because last time inside the ring,
16:46he did not do that against the taller opposition.
16:49He was following him around the ring
16:51and not trying to cut him off or cut off the ring.
16:53So, a lot of improvement for the young man.
16:58Let me watch him a little bit more.
16:59All right, let's listen in to Kei Karoma
17:01with our ESPN modified coverage.
17:07Well, you got defense with it too, so you're good.
17:10You want to stay tight?
17:11You're closing it.
17:13Look, he's slowing down a little bit.
17:20Shorten that step up and make sure you counter it.
17:22Watch those feet, guys. Watch them.
17:25Keep the pressure going. Keep it going.
17:27Keep closing the gap.
17:30Good.
17:31Now we're going to start going under, D.
17:32Don't let him do what he want to do.
17:34Up and down.
17:35Good.
17:36Start going to his body more, man.
17:37Chin down.
17:40A little bit aggressive, D.
17:41Go under. Come on.
17:42Be right there.
17:45There you go. Go under.
17:49It's the body.
17:50Your body ain't moving, D.
17:52Keep going.
17:53All right, don't let him breathe.
17:55Tuck your chin.
18:02Look where his hands go.
18:03He's smart.
18:04Keep going.
18:07Look, you got the momentum.
18:08Keep going.
18:09Keep touching it.
18:11There you go.
18:12Trust me, D.
18:14Have fun with it.
18:15Change it up.
18:16Switch the levels of it.
18:18Good.
18:22Stop looking for that shot.
18:23Go under.
18:26Walk behind it.
18:27Walk behind it.
18:32See, now bring something on it.
18:36That's one shot, D.
18:37That's one.
18:42That's one shot, D.
18:45There you go.
18:47Hands up.
18:48Go again.
18:49Speed.
18:50That's a jab.
18:51Come on, D.
18:52I need you to run at speed.
18:53Guard.
18:56Right there.
18:57Stay tight on your guard.
18:58Trust me, bro.
18:59Stay high on the guard.
19:00Trust me.
19:01Whoa.
19:02Look for that left straight underneath.
19:03There you go.
19:05Keep that right hand tight, though.
19:08Where's the second shot at?
19:09You're throwing the hook by itself.
19:10There you go.
19:11You're looking for one shot.
19:12Run a number off with you.
19:17Stop building.
19:18Keep building.
19:23Keep your hands tight.
19:28Walk behind it.
19:29It's right there.
19:30You can catch a shoot that all day, D.
19:31Come on.
19:33Stop looking for that left.
19:39Keep inching.
19:44Sim up a little bit.
19:45Sim up a little bit.
19:47Yo, bring something behind it, D.
19:49Stop just looking for the left.
19:51Listen for that bell, gentlemen.
19:55I like that number.
19:56All good, Doc.
19:57You're doing good, but you're taking pictures of your clean shots.
19:58When you keep on running the same comments, you're trying to let that hook be your hero.
19:59The hook is best in bullshit.
20:00The hook is not always the hero.
20:01Okay?
20:02You're throwing the hook, and you're missing, and you're not coming back enough.
20:03Right.
20:04You're just uncomfortable with that.
20:05When you're throwing the hook too wide, and when you're throwing it, instead of throwing
20:06it wide and short, you're throwing it too wide.
20:07You're throwing it too wide.

23:18All right, stop, stop, stop.
23:19No punches.
23:20Straight back.
23:21Straight back.
23:23Chin down.
23:24Chin down.

23:28Back to jab.

23:43Good.
23:45Now don't forget,
23:46down that jab,
23:47drop that left hand down steady.
23:49Step right.
23:53That's right.
23:54Step to the right.
23:55That was one shot.
23:56I need more than one.
23:57Up him.
23:58Get nasty.
23:59Come on, D.
24:00There you go.
24:01Good.
24:02All right, right there, gentlemen.
24:03Stop.
24:07Hey, Wes.
24:08What's up, brother?
24:15Let me throw that left up
24:16so you got your chin up in the air.
24:18Because you're so focused on tryin' to put the power.
24:20Put your chin down and throw the left up to the body.
24:22Just throw your breathing.
24:23Okay?
24:24All right, that was a good round.
24:25So what I'm still,
24:26I'm not liking some of the exchanges
24:27where you let your arm be a little too loose.
24:29Keep it tight.
24:30You did good to the body,
24:31but now do some angles
24:32when you're ruffin' him up like that.
24:34And don't let him push you back, okay?
24:36Get back on the jab.
24:37Double up the jab.
24:38Give him some touches.
24:39Tonight's the co-main event here
24:41at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona,
24:44featured Olympic silver medalist Richard Torres Jr.,
24:48who is facing another step up in competition,
24:51putting his perfect record on the line
24:53in this 11th professional fight.
24:55He'll be takin' on Joey DeVaco,
24:57the man they know,
24:58and call the tank.
25:00Seven and one,
25:01four knockouts over his last eight fights
25:04out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
25:05He's as tough as they come, Tim.
25:07And he's gonna test
25:10the undefeated fighter
25:11out of Tulare, California.
25:13244 pounds, I believe, on the scale.
25:15He hasn't been that weight
25:16since he fought against Frank Sanchez,
25:18I think, in 2020.
25:20So, he's comin', he's ready.
25:22He knows this is a huge opportunity for him.
25:24And if he beats Torres,
25:26he knows that he can be in the running
25:28for something big down the line.

27:03Good D.
27:04Now stop catchin' the shootin' off of him.
27:06He gettin' confidence right there.
27:08Good.
27:10See right there, now give me the left whip.
27:13Right there.
27:15Now work off that.
27:16Hands up, step to him.
27:22There you go, there you go.
27:25Good, don't let him go.
27:26Don't let him go.

27:28Keep that pace.
27:30Right there D, keep touchin'.
27:32Pick it up.
27:33Come on D, pick it up.
27:36Good stick.
27:38Good, build off.
27:40I like it.
27:42Stay tight.
27:46Good D, now come off that.
27:49There you go.
27:51Chin down.
27:52Nice.
27:55Keep watchin'.
27:57Bring the dog out D.
28:00It's right there, keep goin' D.
28:03There you go.
28:04Stay tight.
28:06Bring the dog out.
28:07Keep goin'.
28:11Good job.
28:15Gentlemen, last round.
28:16We're gonna touch gloves at the bell.
28:18At the bell.
28:20Ladies and gentlemen,
28:21here is your contestant,
28:23Diamond Arena,
28:24D-D,
28:25Andrew Lyon Brown!
28:29Look, young fighters out here.
28:31Southpaws, right handers included.
28:33I just wanna let you know,
28:34you don't wanna do this.
28:35You don't wanna turn inward right here
28:37to block a right cross.
28:40Just look at this.
28:41Single high shield,
28:42drop that lead hand right there.
28:43He gets clipped with the right hand,
28:44keepin' that head on the A slot.
28:46You do not wanna rotate in
28:47because if you misjudge it
28:48like he just did right there,
28:49he got caught right on the money.
28:51Another thing that I'm seein'
28:53is that he keeps his head again on the A slot,
28:56right down the middle.
28:57He gotta move his head off the line,
28:59even after he punches,
29:00and he's not.
29:01And that's the reason why
29:02you keep seein' him get hit
29:03with shots occasionally
29:05when you have Perez
29:06just lettin' his hands go.
29:08He can close his eyes
29:09and just let his hands go,
29:10and he will land something
29:12on Zamora
29:14because Zamora keeps his head
29:16too much on that A slot.
29:18He gotta learn to get those heads
29:19off to the side,
29:21on the shoulders,
29:22or underneath his opponent's offense.
29:25And that's what you learn
29:26against an experienced fighter
29:27like Gerardo Antonio Perez.
29:29All right, we close this out.
29:31Round eight
29:32with Kay Karoma
29:33in our ESPN Plus ringside
29:34modified coverage.
29:36Good.
29:37I like the inch.
29:38I like that.
29:39That's what I want right there.
29:40Good.
29:41Go again.
29:45Good.
29:46Good.
29:47Good.
29:49Pull the hook next time.
29:50Back on the stick.
29:52Keep it tight.
29:53Go again.
29:54Good.
29:56Good.
29:57There you go, G.
29:58Keep goin', man.
29:59That's the boxing I want.
30:00That's the boxing I want right there,
30:01just like that.
30:05Good.
30:07When you let him breathe right here,
30:08don't let him breathe, G.
30:11Keep cuttin'.
30:12You follow him too much.
30:15Go back to that stomach.
30:17Go back to the jab.
30:20Grab him off.
30:21Good. Grab him off.
30:22Now work off of it.
30:25All right.
30:26Don't feed it, man.
30:27Get back on your stick.
30:28Yeah.
30:31There you go.
30:32Good jab.
30:34Good.
30:35Right there.
30:36Right there.
30:37There you go.
30:38Bring the hook.
30:39Right there.
30:40One, two.
30:41Right down the pipe.
30:42There you go.
30:43There you go.
30:44Hold it.
30:45Sit him down.
30:47After that left, D, pull the hook, bro.
30:51Come on.
30:52It's right there.
30:53Use it.
30:54One, two, three.
30:55One, two, three, four.
30:57Go again.
30:58Now go back down.
30:59Go again, D.
31:00Good.
31:01Now give me a straight down there.
31:03Down the stick, give me the straight.
31:04There you go.
31:05Now keep on walkin' him back.
31:07All you gotta do is believe in it.
31:08Keep walkin' him, Nef.
31:10All you gotta do is believe in it.
31:11Keep walkin' him, Nef.
31:13Good.
31:14Turn him.
31:15Breathe.
31:16Turn out.
31:17D, finish strong, D.
31:19One, two, three, D.
31:20Finish.
31:22Good.
31:23Take the back leg a little bit more.
31:24Go right back.
31:25Speed.
31:26Bye-bye.
31:27Go on you snakes.
31:30Go again.
31:31Go between there.
31:33There you go.
31:34Go again.
31:35Good.
31:36Good.
31:37One, two.
31:38Right down the guy.
31:39Right down it, right there.
31:42Go.
31:43Again.
31:47Come on.
31:49Got it up, got it up, got it up.
31:53Let it go.
31:57One more go!
31:58Go, run it!
31:59Stop him, D!
32:00Keep going!
32:01Left, right, left, right!
32:02Stay low!
32:05Chin down!
32:06Chop, chop, chop, chop!
32:07No punch, no punch.
32:08He got it, he got it.
32:09Chin down, right it up!
32:10Chin down!
32:16Right there, John!
32:17John, it's a fucking hell of a fight.
32:19Nice fight.
32:24Even referee Thomas Taylor with language but admiring a good fight.
32:29Let's take a look though.
32:30Hey, it's a good technical skill in the ring, man.
32:33He did some good things.
32:34You know, some things that he can definitely work on, man.
32:37But, I mean, I liked him creating off that jab, you know, stabbing down low, you know,
32:42changing levels, coming up top.
32:44You know, I love these body shots.
32:46Again, you see his man is moving out to his left and he stops him with that right hand
32:49to the body, straight left hand down the middle seat.
32:52Again, going downstairs, when somebody's going down, if you're going down, you got to expect
32:57something to come up top.
32:58And that's what happened.
32:59That's the reason why he got hit in that sequence right there.
33:02But again, I thought it was a great performance, to be honest with you.
33:06A night and day performance from his first time we saw him.
33:08You know, he told us.
33:09He said, when you asked me in the locker room, Tim, or asked me in the fighter meeting, you
33:14know, was I, you know, how was I dealing with the stress or the nerves?
33:18You know, new promotion, you know, big stage, fighting on television.
33:22He said, you know what?
33:24At that time, I didn't realize I understand what you was coming from.
33:27He said, you know what?
33:29It was hard.
33:31He said, my emotions during the fight.
33:33He said, that caused me to fight in a way that I wouldn't, you know, I usually don't look.
33:37So that stress.
33:38Again, these fighters, they got to get used to this atmosphere, man.
33:41You got to get used to these bright lights and travel in different places, you know,
33:45and get used to, you know, just again, the boxing atmosphere and these bright lights, man.
33:50So tonight, he shined tonight.
33:52I thought he did a very good job tonight there against Perez.
33:56And Gerardo Antonio Perez came here to fight, came out to bring out the best in DJ Zamora.
34:02And that's exactly what we saw in this fight.
34:06I mean, look, he was getting sparring with Shusha Carrington out in Vegas.
34:10So he said, that one raised my level.
34:12But you could see how, what he took from that.
34:16You saw his high guard up, and he was deflecting shots, blocking shots, being more reactive with his guards.
34:23That's what he took from Shusha.
34:25All right, let's send it up to Mark Chinug for the decision.
34:28Ladies and gentlemen, after eight rounds here inside Desert Diamond Arena,
34:32we go to the judges' scorecards for the official decision.
34:37Rocky Taylor and Steve Weisfeld both have it 80-72.
34:41Patrick Russell, 79-73.
34:44All in favor of your winner by unanimous decision,
34:49DJ The War Machine Zamora!
34:56Big win for DJ Zamora, his second fight under the top rank on ESPN Banner.
35:01And you could see the talent from the young man out of Las Vegas, Nevada,
35:06who's wearing the Raider colors. All right.
