00:00Making her seventh world title appearance, from Los Angeles, California, Mikayla Mayer!
00:19Introducing out of the red corner, presented in association with Matchroom Boxing,
00:26with head trainer, Emmanuelle Flixiboy.
00:30She weighed in at 146.6 pounds, wearing black trunks with white trim.
00:38Her record, seven victories, with one defeat, one draw.
00:43Three of those victories coming by way of knockout.
00:47She is making her third world title defense.
00:50She is the reigning and defending WBO welterweight champion of the world,
01:00from Derby, England, Sandy The Lion Ryan!
01:21Alright ladies, you're ready to receive your instructions, obey my commands,
01:26protect yourself all the time, let's have a good clean fight, good luck ladies, let's do it.
01:31No glove touch from Sandy Ryan, she is business.
01:36I mean, as it was, Tim, we expected her to throw spiteful punches in this fight.
01:42After everything that's happened, she didn't really want to get into what her childhood was like,
01:47she just said it was messed up.
01:48What happened today was unacceptable, as she was throwing paint on,
01:54as she was getting out of her hotel room, coming to the arena.
01:57Now, it's time to fight, and that's the beauty of the sport.
02:01It's only Mikayla Mayer and Sandy Ryan in the center of the ring.
02:11Both girls getting off to a quick start with their jabs, you see Mikayla circling left,
02:15circling away from the power hand of Sandy Ryan.
02:35Ryan has a mean left hook downstairs, and to the head.
02:40Eventually she's going to start slipping inside of that jab,
02:43and she's going to attempt to go downstairs.
02:47One minute is already left in this opening round, and we remind you,
02:52female boxing, the fights are contested.
02:55Two minute round.
02:57Nice straight right there from Mikayla Mayer.
03:00And did you see it buckle the legs right there of Ryan?
03:03Just for a brief moment.
03:05Perfectly timed overhand right from Mikayla Mayer.
03:09That's that newfound power.
03:11She's working on those mechanics.
03:14Talk about how she's turning it over really quick, Ken.
03:17Again, sitting on it, the mechanics, punching from the shoulder.
03:22Turning into the shot.
03:25You mentioned how she was having trouble with her shoulder pain,
03:29and it was shortening her right hand, now you see her extending that right hand.
03:33But you got to extend it all the way, and you got to put your body weight behind it all the way through,
03:38and that's what you saw right there.
03:40It was coming inside.
03:42Also, so it's a double impact right there.
03:46She buzzed her momentarily.
03:51Let's listen to the old voice in Mikayla's corner, Al Mitchell,
03:55but there's also Kofi Jantua working with Mayer.
04:10What you didn't do, you only did it one time, and it worked.
04:14To fake, have fun with them.
04:17But come back with the jab.
04:21The most effective punch in this round, Tim,
04:24was that overhand right from Mikayla Mayer.
04:27How'd she set it up?
04:29Just off the jab, disguised the right hand off the jab.
04:32Just simple. Nice step in right here, short flash to jab,
04:36and you see the full extension right there, getting all her weight behind.
04:40That right hand.
04:42Beautiful shot. Look at the legs of Ryan right there.
04:45Just submitted, just buckled, just a split second.
04:47She hurt her momentarily.
04:49But again, Ryan, very determined and in tip-top shape.
04:53She recovered quickly after that shot.
04:55And Tim, when you have so much going on in the lead-up to the fight,
05:00will a shot like that wake you up?
05:02It can.
05:04It absolutely can wake you up.
05:06However, right now, what Ryan is dealing with right now
05:08is the fact that Mikayla is circling away from her power hand
05:12and she still has yet to cut that angle off.
05:15What Ryan needs to do is she needs to move to her right
05:19to cut off that jab hand of Mikayla.
05:22But she's following her around.
05:24And that's the issue right now.
05:26Mikayla is able to gather an angle and land that jab like she's doing there.
05:34Two fighters with great amateur pedigree.
05:37And they really turn into great professional fighters.
05:42Nice job there from Sandy Ryan.
05:45Mayer going down to the body.
05:47And see, Mayer has the quicker hands.
05:49That's why she's able to get off her combinations.
05:51Coming from the lower weight class.
05:53That's the difference.
05:55Mayer still has those quick combinations,
05:57although she's up at 147 pounds now.
05:59And she did tell us that, Tim, in our fighter meeting.
06:02She says, look, you're going to see the body of a natural warrior.
06:04She says, look, you're going to see the body of a natural welterweight.
06:07I should have been here before.
06:09But the speed and agility of a junior lightweight where I was a world champion.
06:13There you see nice combination punching downstairs from Mikayla Mayer.
06:16Great start for the American fighter.
06:18She's getting her hands off quick and precisely.
06:21All stepping around.
06:23All fundamentals taught by Al Mitchell.
06:26Keep turning her.
06:28Keep turning her.
06:30Again, where's the right hand?
06:32Sandy finally throwing the right hand.
06:34But she's got to be able to cut that angle off.
06:36I mean, she's moving one way.
06:38You've got to be able to understand that.
06:40With over 100 fights or 90 amateur fights,
06:43you have to know.
06:45Cut that angle off, but she isn't.
06:4990 years on Team Great Britain.
06:5190 amateur bouts.
06:53130 amateur bouts.
06:55And the Olympics for Mikayla.
07:04She's got to be able to cut that angle off.
07:35Ladies and gentlemen, this is Top Ring.
07:44This is the baby!
08:05October 9th, it's Josh Taylor.
08:07Sinise Estrada on the 10th.
08:09Naoya Inoue on the 11th.
08:11And right now, it's round 3 of a scheduled 10-round fight.
08:13We're here the rest of the way.
08:15No more breaks.
08:17Sandy Ryan defending her welterweight title
08:19against Mikayla Mayer.
08:21The bad blood is on display.
08:23And now you see Ryan loading up on those left hooks.
08:25Yes, she is loading up.
08:27And she's finally cutting that angle.
08:29However, Mikayla doing her own digging downstairs.
08:33Kofi Jantua instructed her to start going to the body
08:35of Sandy Ryan.
08:37And what do you do with a body puncher?
08:39You have to punch with them.
08:41You have to punch with them.
08:43Absolutely.
08:45Or set up something over the top.
08:47You see the experience of Mayer right here.
08:49That's what you're seeing.
08:51That championship pedigree.
08:53Although the champion, yes, she's here.
08:55She's alive.
08:57But I love the strategy of Mikayla
08:59at this point in this fight.
09:00I believe she won the first two rounds.
09:02They were close.
09:04However, I thought she edged them out
09:06with her jab and movement in that right hand.
09:08Watch it.
09:10Don't put my head down.
09:12Ryan had some good moments there early in the round.
09:14Look at the inside.
09:16Great inside work from Mikayla Mayer.
09:18This is where Sandy is supposed to excel, people.
09:20This is where she's supposed to be hurting
09:22and digging down and controlling Mikayla.
09:24Right there.
09:26Good physicality from her pushing her back.
09:27Good right hand.
09:29You said this could be a fight of the year candidate.
09:31Yes, it is.
09:33This is a breakneck pace early on
09:35that Ryan and Mayer are setting.
09:39Ooh.
09:41This is a fight.
09:43The fans are on their feet
09:45inside the theater at MSG.
09:47Big right hands right there from Ryan.
09:49Let's not put a bow.
09:51Let's not put a bow.
09:53Mayer taking them well.
09:54However, good rhythm
09:56to the end of this round
09:58for the champion, Sandy Ryan.
10:00All right.
10:02Let's listen to Emmanuel Flick Savoy
10:04in the corner of Sandy Ryan.
10:06You got in a fire fight,
10:08but you got to be smart.
10:10Take a deep breath.
10:12Come on.
10:14We got to be smarter than that.
10:16Use your speed.
10:18Use your straight shots.
10:20She's wearing down.
10:22Use your straight shots going down.
10:24Go to the body.
10:26Okay?
10:28Your jab is there, lady.
10:32Take a deep breath.
10:35Good.
10:37You got to go up and down.
10:39You're looking for one shot.
10:42And put A.
10:44Now it's time to push her back.
10:46Okay?
10:48Where your moat at?
10:50A step to her.
10:52Don't let her breathe.
10:54You don't got to do hop.
10:56Just bump off a little bit.
10:58And this step.
11:00Get your towel.
11:02You see two different facial expressions.
11:04McKayla Mayer is in her groove.
11:06Yes.
11:08And Sandy Ryan is loading up,
11:10has fury in her eyes
11:12and in her punches.
11:14This is high level women's boxing.
11:16I'm telling you right now.
11:18This is what you're witnessing right now.
11:20High level, high work rate,
11:22great technique by both women.
11:24Of Ryan.
11:26You see the champion here trying to close the gap.
11:29Still trying to figure out
11:31how to get away from that jab
11:33and that step around game
11:35from McKayla Mayer just circling.
11:37Nice straight right there though from Ryan
11:39as Mayer lands a right of her own.
11:41But she takes another right from the champion
11:43and this is a rock'em, sock'em robots.
11:45Look, Tim, we're almost
11:47a third of the way through this fight.
11:49These rounds are two minutes long.
11:51The title fights are only ten rounds.
11:52You have to go to work
11:54and that's what Ryan and Mayer are doing.
11:59Mayer's in there fighting.
12:01I don't think Al Mitchell
12:04is saying anything into that corner.
12:07I'm pretty sure she's hearing what he's saying
12:10but she's out here fighting to win.
12:12Nice right hand right there from Ryan.
12:14Oh, nice counter there from McKayla Mayer.
12:17That's changing right hands.
12:19This is a fight, ladies and gentlemen.
12:20Call your friends
12:22because it's going to be at this pace
12:24for the rest of the evening.
12:26It's unbelievable.
12:30These ladies have no quit in them.
12:32It's like Mayer's getting the best of those exchanges.
12:35However, Ryan is landing
12:37the harder shots in the exchanges
12:39and just one or two at a time
12:41so the combination is coming from Mayer.
12:44Good uppercut on the inside.
12:46This is exactly where Ryan wants to be.
12:48This is where she likes to operate right here
12:50when she needs to work on the inside.
12:52From McKayla, short uppercuts.
12:57Ooh, McKayla Mayer with the flurry.
13:00Look, Ryan says,
13:02I'm the champion, I'm going to come get you
13:04at the end of the round.
13:06And look at who we found
13:08and where we found Kay Karoma.
13:11He's over here in the corner box.
13:14R1, as far away as you can be
13:17from the action
13:18but he's an interested observer
13:21especially after what happened to Sandy Ryan today.
13:23Oh, absolutely.
13:24I mean, he's invested in this.
13:26You'd think he's not.
13:28He's doing his best to try to exclude himself.
13:30However, I know he had something to do.
13:32No, I don't know.
13:34I would assume he had something to do
13:36with the game plan of Ryan tonight.
13:38You know, he's best friends with Flick.
13:41So, I'm sure Flick and him have had
13:43many conversations, I would think,
13:45about this particular fight.
13:46But right now,
13:48Mayer, Mayer right now,
13:51yes, she has a game plan.
13:53You can see it unfolding.
13:55But she's in there thinking on her own.
13:57Where in the past, I always felt like
13:59like Al.
14:01Al would tell her, her trainer would tell her
14:03what she needs to do.
14:05However, tonight, she's in it to win it, baby.
14:07I'm letting y'all know right now.
14:09She's in it to win it.
14:11She's very skilled but she's at her best
14:13when she's doing this.
14:14She's a professional fighter
14:16and that's what she's doing tonight.
14:18Let's put things into perspective.
14:20At one point in this round,
14:22it was 55 punches apiece.
14:24Right now, it's 71 to 62,
14:26a 9-punch advantage.
14:28But Michaela won round 4,
14:3026 to 15 with those flurries.
14:32So, things are heating up here
14:34at the MSG Theater in New York City.
14:3610-round championship fight.
14:38The rounds are only 2 minutes.
14:40They go by fast.
14:42So, you have very little time to think
14:44about your strategy.
14:46That's true.
14:48You're seeing the game plan unfold.
14:50That's been drilled in the training.
14:52No one has to tell Mayer what to do.
14:54Mayer knows what she needs to do.
14:56She has experience.
14:58She's been a champion before
15:00and she's going after this title.
15:02Ryan right now is having a hard time
15:04tracking her down.
15:06That's just it.
15:08Mark, what's your scorecard look here
15:10for the first 4 rounds?
15:1237-39, 3 rounds to 1.
15:14You're going to see.
15:16I had Sandy winning the last round
15:18until Michaela came on strongly
15:20in the trenches with those uppercuts.
15:23Look at that.
15:25Off the jab, stepping around.
15:27Then she'll change it up
15:29and she'll throw a left hook
15:31just so she can turn the corner.
15:33That's the left hook,
15:35so she can turn that corner.
15:37She's keeping Sandy, the champion,
15:39behind her.
15:41She's got to chase her.
15:42She's got to go in her.
15:46Michaela using every attribute
15:48that's to her advantage.
15:50The reach still is to the advantage of Mayer,
15:53but the quickness of Michaela
15:55is getting there first.
15:57You're absolutely right.
16:02Halfway through this fight
16:04as Ryan tries to go down to the body
16:06and Michaela Mayer felt that punch.
16:13It'll cut over the left eyelid
16:15of Michaela Mayer.
16:23Number one, keep going to the left.
16:25What she's doing,
16:27she's trying to sit
16:29to throw a left hook to the body.
16:31You never give her the chance
16:33because she keeps turning.
16:35You keep turning.
16:37Remember we got on you
16:39about coming back?
16:40Every once in a while
16:42to come back with that combination
16:44coffee shake.
16:45Bang, bang, bang.
16:46Right there.
16:48Then come back with the jab.
16:53Come back with the jab
16:55but keep the jab going
16:57and fake.
16:59You understand this?
17:01Put it forward.
17:03All right, baby?
17:08Michaela Mayer said
17:10once you throw a combination
17:12run it again, run it again
17:14until it becomes natural
17:16and that's what we're seeing tonight.
17:18Mayer right now is looking like
17:20she's in her absolute prime right now.
17:22Her jabs,
17:24she's changing the position over here.
17:26Oh, she got hurt with that shot.
17:28Great left hook.
17:30And now Mayer
17:32has Ryan holding.
17:34Big shot from Ryan.
17:36Left hook.
17:38Momentarily
17:40Mayer stumbled
17:42momentarily
17:44but again
17:46her desire, her heart,
17:48her will to win.
17:50Tim, these are the shots
17:52that we expected from Ryan.
17:54The body shots, the left hooks.
17:56There's that right
17:58spiteful right hand
18:00from Sandy Ryan, the champion.
18:04Could be a tale of two fights
18:06if Ryan gets her second win here.
18:10Big shot from Ryan.
18:12She never can clean.
18:14Ryan now is starting to find
18:16her mark with that right hand.
18:18She's cutting off that exit
18:20and she's running Michaela
18:22into that left hook now.
18:24She closed that left exit
18:26just by stepping to her right.
18:28Good job.
18:30Oh, another left hook
18:32after the body shots.
18:34Working the hand speed downstairs,
18:36getting her attention downstairs
18:38then coming up with that big left hook.
18:40Great round for Ryan right now.
18:42Great round.
18:44Nice straight right again
18:46from Sandy Ryan
18:48and right from Michaela Mayer.
18:50Michaela's starting to come back now.
18:52Southpaw position from Ryan.
18:54Switching stances.
18:56Not sure how much that's going to help her
18:59especially in close quarters.
19:01And because Michaela Mayer
19:03is coming off of a fight
19:05against the Southpaw
19:07in Natasha Jonas.
19:08Not a great round
19:10from both but especially
19:12for Sandy Ryan
19:14who is now going downhill.
19:16Good job, ladies.
19:18Coach Flick.
19:23You loaded it up a little bit.
19:25It's coming off beautiful
19:27but it was a good round
19:29but you loaded up.
19:31Take a deep breath.
19:33You're going to have to dig deep, baby.
19:35I think you'll fight close.
19:36Take a deep breath.
19:38How you feeling?
19:40You're not tired, right?
19:42Okay then.
19:44Stop blowing up on the shots
19:46and give me numbers.
19:48Look at this left hook on the inside.
19:50Downstairs.
19:52Nice right hand over the top
19:54but that's the shot I was talking about
19:56right there that got Mayer's attention.
19:58Right on the chin.
20:00You see her buckle just a little bit right there.
20:02She took it well and here's the next one.
20:04Ryan finally cutting off
20:06to the left.
20:08I knew if she cut that exit off
20:10she would have some success
20:12because she'll be able to push Mayer
20:15to her left hand
20:17which is the power shot that she has.
20:19You're talking about power shots?
20:21Sandy Ryan landed 23 power shots
20:23in that 6th round
20:25and that brings her to 68
20:27so practically half of her power shots
20:29were landed in that round.
20:31Sandy Ryan, I said,
20:33is coming downhill
20:34but she's finding opposition
20:36in Mikayla Mayer
20:38and she gets clipped with a 1-2.
20:40Come on guys, come on.
20:42Break out of here.
20:44Let it go, let it go.
20:46Let's go.
20:48You see Ryan stepping
20:50to her right now.
20:52She's getting ahead of Mikayla
20:54instead of chasing and following.
20:56Go ahead.
20:58Don't punch, don't punch.
21:00Took her almost half the fight
21:02to figure it out, Tim.
21:04Mikayla's standing toe-to-toe
21:06gets clipped by a left hook
21:08once again
21:10from Sandy Ryan.
21:12Some big punches on the inside
21:14from Ryan.
21:16She's shorting the shots up.
21:18She's starting to get in the groove now.
21:20Starting to get in the rhythm.
21:22Mayer, that's a nice stiff jab there
21:24to kind of remind her
21:26hey, you want to come in?
21:28You got to pay the price.
21:30Ooh, another right hand.
21:32Mayer got to keep that left hand up.
21:34From Mikayla Mayer.
21:36A two-punch counter.
21:38But again, Ryan is staying close enough
21:40to be able to extend with that right hand.
21:50See the push-off right there?
21:52You see the push-off to create space right there?
21:54Great skill.
21:56Excellent skill right there
21:58from Mikayla Mayer.
22:00Just a little bump.
22:02There it is, another bump
22:05She's got Ryan reaching momentarily
22:08after this push-off.
22:10But see, in these encounters right here
22:12Ryan has to keep her hands clear
22:14to let her hands go.
22:16Follows it by a right
22:18and then takes a right from Mikayla.
22:20These are hard punches
22:22that Ryan is landing on Mikayla Mayer.
22:34Take your time.
22:36Move, not go ahead.
22:38You're about to be jabbed.
22:40Keep going to the left.
22:42Keep going to the left.
22:44And it's not at her head.
22:46It's at her body.
22:48And when you're in close,
22:50don't step back.
22:52Look at the corner is telling Mikayla Mayer
22:54right now not to exchange with her
22:56because she's dangerous.
22:58Shots like that are getting through.
23:00Although Mikayla is letting her hands go
23:02the harder punches, shots like that
23:04are landing and doing damage.
23:06And little by little
23:08slowing down
23:10the aggression of Mayer.
23:12Mayer has to stay smart.
23:14You know, she's not leaning in
23:16as much as she usually does.
23:18And she's getting off the line
23:20like she did there.
23:22She's doing some great things in there.
23:24I think both ladies are doing
23:26great things in there.
23:28However, you get in a firefight
23:30with a fighter that has bigger guns
23:32you're going to get yourself
23:34in trouble.
23:36SportsCenter coming up next.
23:38Immediately following
23:40our welterweight world title fight.
23:43Good movement right here.
23:45A lot of movement.
23:47Setting traps.
23:49Having the champion in chasing.
23:51However, if she slows down
23:53a little bit,
23:55Ryan's going to come on
23:57for sure.
23:59Mayer slowed down
24:01and she took a nice right hand
24:02from Ryan.
24:04Another right-left combination.
24:06Uh-oh.
24:08Now what Ryan's doing now.
24:10She's getting her distance
24:12and now she's staying mid-range
24:14and she's not smothering her work.
24:16She's pushing off
24:18trying to get McKayla out of her range
24:20and she's standing extremely close
24:22and she's making McKayla work.
24:24McKayla's getting off right now.
24:26She's getting off while she's backing up.
24:28Good shots right there from McKayla.
24:30She might have hurt the champion
24:32but this is the best round.
24:34It's been dominant.
24:36But then McKayla Mayer lands
24:38a stunning left hook
24:40that freezes her in her tracks.
24:42Both women having to dig deep here
24:44in the 8th round
24:46of a scheduled 10-round fight.
24:55They only had one extra minute.
24:57I don't know who'd be getting this.
24:59Yeah, that's true.
25:01It's a sense of urgency.
25:03See that left hook that McKayla Mayer landed.
25:05Ryan reaching with that right hand.
25:18Big right from McKayla Mayer.
25:20They're both loading up on their shots here
25:22after 8 rounds.
25:31I need these last two, baby.
25:33You let her win that little exchange.
25:35Okay?
25:37You can't keep letting her win that little exchange.
25:39Take a deep breath.
25:41You hear me?
25:43How you feel?
25:45You got two rounds.
25:47What you gonna do?
25:49What you gonna do?
25:51You ain't fighting.
25:53Never mind.
25:55Coffee had you digging down there.
25:57Bend down and dig down there.
25:58One more.
26:00Okay, we got two more.
26:02Two more rounds.
26:07Box her.
26:09And the key is keep going to the left.
26:11Dig that big space.
26:13Get back in the middle of her.
26:15Don't fight all the time.
26:17Keep going to the left.
26:19You got it?
26:21Seconds out.
26:23Four minutes.
26:25Four minutes.
26:26What does your unofficial scorecard look like?
26:2876-76.
26:30Four rounds apiece.
26:32We can talk about Morales, Barrera,
26:34all those guys.
26:36Give me Ryan and Makayla Mayer.
26:38Settle down, my friend.
26:42My friend.
26:44Hold on now.
26:46It's a great fight.
26:48Nice left uppercut there from Sandy Ryan.
26:51Step back.
26:53There you go.
26:55Nice combination.
26:57Left hooks from Makayla Mayer.
26:59Makayla got to keep turning that corner.
27:02She's standing in front of a puncher.
27:04Ryan's going to have success.
27:06She's not messing with that right hand.
27:08That's three right hands in a row
27:10landed by Ryan, the champion.
27:12Look, you got to do
27:14and continue to do what's working.
27:16What was working was
27:18lateral movement using your jab.
27:20However, Ryan made an adjustment now.
27:21Makayla is getting drug into a fight.
27:23Getting pushed back right now.
27:25You ain't got that long to go.
27:27Come on.
27:29Just to put things into context,
27:31Makayla Mayer went to the U.K.
27:33Last four fights, lost two of them
27:35against Alicia Bumgarner, a fellow American
27:37in a very close fight
27:39and a fight she probably would have won
27:41anywhere else had it not been for Clippers.
27:43Nice uppercut on the inside
27:45by Mayer.
27:47Splitting the guard, that high guard of Ryan.
27:49Ryan, she came to America
27:51and lost a title unification
27:53or actually was a draw in a title unification
27:55against Jessica McCaskill.
27:57A fight many believe she deserved to win.
27:59And now it's going to be a close fight
28:01to the finish
28:03because there's a minute and 25 seconds left.
28:05I mean, two minutes and 25 seconds left
28:07for these women to compete
28:09for this welterweight world title.
28:11You can see Mayer breathing deep.
28:13Those body shots really did a job on her
28:15in round nine.
28:17Yes, both women now having to dig deep
28:19to battle Patricia right now
28:21because determination,
28:23how bad you want it.
28:25These are the moments right here
28:27that make you great.
28:29When you're tired,
28:31when you feel like you can't do it anymore,
28:33you got to find it within yourself
28:35to perform
28:37and to do what you got to do
28:39to win this match.
28:41Everything you got.
28:43We got lazy on defense at the end.
28:45Take a deep breath, yeah.
28:47Right, brother.
28:49Ladies and gentlemen,
28:51let's spit it out.
29:01Take a deep breath.
29:03Hey, I don't care what you got left in your body.
29:05I need it.
29:07Finish strong.
29:09Okay, I'm proud of you, man.
29:11You're pulling like a G.
29:13After everything we went through.
29:15All right, enough, enough, enough.
29:17One at a time.
29:19Okay?
29:21All right?
29:23Don't let this girl steal that round.
29:25All right?
29:27You don't want to touch?
29:29Go back.
29:31All right, just keep it clean.
29:33This is it, two minutes.
29:35All right, how close is this fight?
29:37The scorecards are one thing.
29:39The punch stats, 164 of 509.
29:41Ryan, Michaela,
29:43one landed less
29:45and doesn't really matter to him
29:47because they're going to give you everything
29:49this last minute and 45 seconds.
29:52Ooh, big shots on the inside.
29:54Watch your elbows, come on.
29:56Don't worry, don't worry.
29:58Step back, step back.
30:00There we go, let's go.
30:05Ooh, another big right hand left hook.
30:07Again, Ryan's the champ.
30:09Ooh, another big right hand.
30:11Come on, guys.
30:13And May is not able to get away from that.
30:15The champion's right here
30:17in the tenth and final round.
30:19This is the championship round, Tim.
30:21This is the final round of the line.
30:23That's what both trainers demanded of their fighters
30:25and so far, Ryan is giving that.
30:27Ryan is cutting off the ring,
30:29made this ring small for Michaela,
30:31got her backed up,
30:33now pouring it on her.
30:35Look at those right hands from the champion.
30:37This is where May has to dig deep right here.
30:39She has to use her experience.
30:41I understand what her trainers are saying.
30:43However, she needs to use her experience right now
30:45to come out and win this match right now.
30:48Things are heating up
30:49here with 45 seconds left
30:51in this world championship fight.
30:53Two-minute rounds.
30:55Ten rounds at all.
30:57And it's been at a breakneck pace
30:59between Ryan and Mayer.
31:06Ooh, and a right hand from Michaela Mayer here.
31:09Big shot.
31:11Nice plant.
31:13Just moved laterally and then planted her feet
31:15and then fired a combination.
31:17Good stuff right here from Mayer.
31:20Tim, I'm going to let the fans
31:22take this fight home.
31:35This is women's championship boxing.
31:39No ducking.
31:41No excuses.
31:43It doesn't matter what happens
31:45on your way to the arena.
31:47What happens is what you do
31:49is what you do.
31:51Will Michaela Mayer become
31:53a welterweight champion
31:55or will Sandy Ryan go home
31:57with that belt around her waist?
31:59We'll be back from New York
32:01with the conclusion of this fight
32:03in one minute.
33:20Thank you, Stan and Linda.
33:23Well, there's a lot of tension in the room.
33:26There was a lot of tension
33:28in the build-up to this fight.
33:30A lot of tension with what happened
33:32with Sandy Ryan on her way here.
33:34And now, Tim, the tension of
33:36will we hear and still or and new?
33:39Yeah.
33:41That's right.
33:49That was a tough one.
33:51Very, very close fight.
33:53Competitive.
33:55By both.
33:57But we know Michaela is never
33:59in bad fights.
34:01That is the case tonight.
34:03Mark, what does your final scorecard look like?
34:0596-94.
34:07There were a lot of really close rounds.
34:09But basically, I thought Michaela won
34:11the first half of the fight.
34:13Sandy Ryan won the second.
34:15She closed the distance.
34:17She landed the harder shots.
34:19Two losses in the U.K.
34:21for Michaela Mayer
34:23when she was the visiting fighter.
34:25And we will see
34:27what the judges have on their scorecards
34:29eventually
34:31as Mark Chinook makes his way
34:33into the ring
34:35with the judges' decision.
34:37You see the anticipation.
34:39The fans ended up on their feet
34:41for this fight.
