00:00 [crowd cheering]

00:02 >> Offense.

00:04 >> Alright gentlemen, we've been over the years with you both.

00:05 You're professional and quick to talk yourself a sense.

00:07 Best of luck.

00:09 [crowd talking]

00:13 >> Well here we go.

00:14 Our main event of the evening about to get underway.

00:18 Defending his WBC US Silver Championship is

00:24 the fighting pride of Court, Ireland, King Callum Walsh.

00:29 He takes on the Argentine in Juan Jose Velasco.

00:36 Our referee, Eddie Hernandez.

00:40 Ten rounds of boxing, round one underway.

00:43 Callum Walsh wearing the colors of his native Ireland.

00:51 Black and gold for Juan Jose Velasco.

00:54 Left hand.

01:01 >> Callum taking control of center ring immediately.

01:05 [crowd chanting]

01:15 >> The buzz has been pretty loud for King Callum Walsh,

01:19 for good reason.

01:21 He's been performing time and time again,

01:23 but you look at what he's done here on UFC Fight Pass.

01:27 He's doing it right down here.

01:31 >> Walsh is targeting the body.

01:35 Which tells me he did his homework.

01:37 [crowd talking]

01:49 >> Confident here.

01:51 Left hook to the body.

01:59 I think that's one of the more scary things about

02:02 the young Irishman in Callum Walsh.

02:04 At 23 years old, the way he conducts himself,

02:07 the way he talks about fighting,

02:08 the way he delivers these shots when fighting

02:13 is another thing altogether,

02:14 but the confidence and the mentality of Callum Walsh,

02:19 it's just on a different level.

02:26 >> Switching things up, going from the body

02:27 to the head is Walsh.

02:38 >> And more volume.

02:40 Two minutes down.

02:52 Look at the demeanor of Callum Walsh.

02:54 I mean, he laid on his feet, dropped his hands a little bit.

02:57 >> Yeah, he's relaxed and almost playful.

03:02 But he's not playing around when he lets his hands go.

03:05 Some sharp, hard shots.

03:08 >> You can tell Velasquez having a tough time dealing

03:11 with not just the power, but the speed of the delivery.

03:30 >> Well, ten seconds here in round number one.

03:43 Smile by Callum Walsh as the first round expires.

03:48 >> And that's the thing about Callum as well,

03:50 he's not afraid of a fight.

03:51 He's almost encouraged anyone that can give him a fight

03:54 to give him a fight.

03:55 So to take a couple of shots to give some,

03:58 he's not afraid of that either.

03:59 And that goes back to that confidence.

04:01 No one's been able to rattle this young man

04:03 and he's having fun out there.

04:06 >> He's got a tough Argentinian,

04:10 most of the Argentinians that come here,

04:11 they're all just tough, durable, sturdy chin.

04:15 And they come to fight.

04:17 He's obviously fighting a prospect and he knows it,

04:21 so he's going to let him expand a little bit,

04:23 expand a little energy and see what happens

04:25 in that next couple of rounds.

04:28 >> Doug Fisher walking us through the replay of round one.

04:30 >> And Callum Walsh taking command

04:32 of the center of the ring.

04:34 First minute and a half of the round

04:36 he was targeting the body.

04:41 And also waiting to see what Velasco throws at him

04:44 that he can counter.

04:46 >> Here we go, round two underway.

04:47 TJ DeSantis, Sable Sanchez, Doug Fisher.

04:50 This is our main event.

04:52 King Callum Walsh taking on Juan Jose Velasco.

04:54 He's joining us live on UFC Fight Pass.

05:03 Velasco aggressive here to start the second round.

05:06 [crowd noise]

05:25 >> We talked about the last fight for Callum Walsh.

05:27 He was cut from a headbutt.

05:30 You can't even tell he was cut.

05:33 He's got an aggressive sort of schedule

05:36 that he wants to continue on.

05:38 I was worried that maybe that cut was going to prevent him

05:41 from taking this fight.

05:42 He still wants to get another one in November.

05:44 But he was able to get through the other side of that cut

05:47 with really not even a scar it looks like.

05:53 >> Yeah, nervous disheveled, but did a great job.

05:56 I believe it was a plastic surgery.

05:59 >> He's done proper.

06:02 He's put proper hands on Velasco.

06:06 >> The Argentine marching forward, though.

06:08 Athlete brought here round for two.

06:16 Left hand to the body, right hand upstairs.

06:23 >> Did their hands come together?

06:24 >> Yes.

06:26 [crowd noise]

06:42 >> Bouncing on his feet is the Irishman with left hand.

06:45 Right before that.

06:47 [crowd noise]

07:11 >> Attack to the body again is Walsh.

07:15 Velasco stunned.

07:18 King Callum Walsh.

07:20 [crowd noise]

07:24 >> Velasco's got really good survival instincts,

07:27 covering up well, but his legs are a little bit shaky.

07:30 [crowd noise]

07:33 >> Save Walsh with a capital ice here inside the final ten seconds

07:36 of round number two.

07:37 [crowd noise]

07:43 >> Velasco able to make it to the end of the round.

07:45 Solid stuff turned in again by the King, Callum Walsh.

07:49 [crowd noise]

07:56 >> Oh, look at that.

07:57 Jorge "Game Bread" Masvidal hanging out ringside with his partner, Dean Toole.

08:05 Street Jesus in the house.

08:09 Three piece and a soda?

08:10 No?

08:12 That's all right.

08:13 I'll fill you in on Masvidal later.

08:15 You boxing guys, you don't need to.

08:16 >> I do recognize him, though.

08:18 It's impressive that he's here.

08:19 >> You only need to watch five seconds of one of his fights.

08:22 Fastest knockout in UFC history.

08:24 All right.

08:25 Let's watch some of these highlights here, Doug Fischer.

08:27 >> Yeah, good.

08:28 I like to see Callum Walsh on his toes, getting into his rhythm,

08:32 and letting his hands go in combinations of twos and threes.

08:37 [crowd noise]

08:42 [bell rings]

08:44 >> Third round underway.

08:45 Again, our main event, King Callum Walsh taking on the Argentine Juan Jose Velasco.

08:51 TJ Desanis, Abel Sanchez, Doug Fischer.

08:56 Appreciate you joining us live here on UFC Fight Pass.

08:58 [crowd noise]

09:05 >> Velasco rocked in that last round.

09:09 Thought that maybe he was a bit on some unsteady legs.

09:12 >> Did they clash heads again?

09:13 >> Yeah, I think they did, yeah.

09:15 [crowd noise]

09:32 >> Velasco being hurt in that last round.

09:36 He seemed to be okay and is trying to exchange again here in this third round.

09:41 >> Seems like he's recovered.

09:42 He's throwing some bombs, some heavy shots.

09:46 Looked like he landed a right hand a moment ago.

09:49 [crowd noise]

10:12 >> Halfway point here, round number three.

10:14 [crowd noise]

10:35 >> Right on his feet is Callum Walsh.

10:37 Two minutes down here in the third.

10:43 >> Velasco's looking to time that right cross.

10:47 [whistle]

10:50 >> Ooh!

10:52 Velasco landed a nice shot, but so did Callum Walsh.

10:55 And the Irishman smiling.

10:57 >> They both did.

10:58 Both guys, both fighters' eyes lit up.

11:02 >> Both men here to put on a show and fight in this main event.

11:09 >> Yeah, both wanted to say, "Gotcha!"

11:12 >> 30 seconds left in round number three.

11:15 [crowd noise]

11:35 >> Inside the final 10 seconds.

11:38 [crowd noise]

11:43 >> There we go.

11:44 Three down.

11:46 Again, scheduled for 10.

11:49 It's our main event for the WBC US Silver Super Welterweight Championship.

11:55 We go inside the corner of the defending champion.

12:00 Callum Walsh said he will fight anyone, anytime.

12:04 Doesn't care when the opponent drops out.

12:07 >> We have a tough fighter in front of me here tonight.

12:10 Doug, walk us through some of the action.

12:12 >> Yeah, they are exchanging punches.

12:15 Callum's looking to load up with the left, and Velasco's looking to load up with the right.

12:19 And Velasco landed the right hand two or three times in that round.

12:23 Still Callum's round, but it was the rare competitive round featuring Callum Walsh.

12:30 We're used to him dominating every round.

12:32 >> As we spoke in the Chuckie Guerrero fight, tough opponent, good opponent for him,

12:36 he's got to load things up.

12:40 But I see Callum trying a little too hard to not--

12:43 He's trying to punch too hard in my opinion.

12:49 >> What would you have told him after that round?

12:53 >> He's trying too hard for the knockout.

12:55 He's trying to land a big bomb.

12:57 It's not necessary. He's got good skills.

12:59 >> So maybe the same punch selection, just don't load up as much?

13:02 >> Just make it quick, sharp and quick.

13:09 >> We've seen Velasco eat some good shots from Walsh, but he hasn't gone away yet.

13:18 >> He is as tough as he looks. He just has that German look about him.

13:24 >> Ooh.

13:26 >> Their feet-- >> They're both hits.

13:31 >> He's done that a few times here tonight.

13:34 >> He looked at me and said-- >> He said, "You're not the one."

13:39 >> I'm glad there's no cut on either man.

13:44 >> One minute has elapsed here in round number four.

13:58 >> You like the amount of power put by that?

14:01 >> Just quick and sharp and right back to where he needs to be.

14:06 Do it again, do it again, do it again.

14:09 [crowd shouting]

14:12 >> Lana Davis, left hand by Walsh, lands.

14:37 [crowd shouting]

14:40 >> Now one minute remains here in round number four.

14:45 [crowd shouting]

14:48 >> Left there, okay, right hand to the body.

14:52 [crowd shouting]

14:55 >> The problem with a young prospect, as he said,

14:59 all his punches are gonna be hard and effective.

15:02 And with a veteran like this, it's gonna be difficult to land that punch

15:05 that you can see coming from a mile away.

15:08 >> Yeah, I'd like to see Cal work his jab a little bit more

15:16 and work body-head combinations.

15:19 He does seem to be head-hugging most of the time.

15:25 >> Final ten seconds here in the fourth round.

15:34 [crowd shouting]

15:37 >> More in the books.

15:49 >> Andrew, your thoughts throughout this fight thus far?

15:54 >> Cal is starting to slow down in trying to pick his spots,

15:57 but as in the last punch that he threw here against Rose,

16:00 he threw it from so far away, it's difficult.

16:02 It's gonna be difficult to land against a veteran like this.

16:05 He's gonna have to be more direct and sharper with his shots.

16:09 This guy's not gonna go away.

16:11 >> Something's happening.

16:13 >> Waller called off.

16:14 >> I don't know what happened.

16:16 >> It'll be interesting to find out.

16:20 Some sort of injury or something has caused Juan Jose Velasco--

16:26 [crowd shouting]

16:28 Either he hurt his hand or Calum Walsh landed something

16:33 that has maybe hurt his jaw or is impairing his vision.

16:37 >> It was turning out to be a very good fight.

16:39 >> It was. I thought it was gonna get interesting.

16:42 >> Maybe a bit anticlimactic, but another stoppage win

16:46 for the King, Calum Walsh,

16:48 who is addressing the crowds here inside Commerce Casino,

16:52 almost a bit apologetic.

16:54 It wasn't his fault. Velasco unable to continue.

16:56 We'll try to do our best to figure out exactly why.

17:00 [crowd shouting]

17:06 But another win.

17:08 Still undefeated.

17:10 The King, Calum Walsh, now 8-0.

17:13 Another stoppage.

17:15 Again, he gets a win tonight over a guy who had

17:19 four times more fights than he had.

17:22 It is a statement.

17:23 There were some things I think that we saw tonight

17:26 about Calum's game that he needed to slow down,

17:29 needed to be patient, as Ava was mentioning.

17:32 Velasco was definitely game,

17:33 and it was shaping up to be a fun fight,

17:35 but ultimately, Calum Walsh does it again.

17:39 >> I'm curious as to exactly what it was that convinced

17:43 Team Velasco to keep their fighter on the stool

17:45 after four rounds.

17:47 >> Again, we will do our best,

17:50 but for the time of the stoppage,

17:52 we go to Lupe Contreras.

17:54 >> Ladies and gentlemen, the blue corner

17:55 in form 23, Andy Hernandez Sr.,

17:58 that they are no longer able to continue.

18:00 Obligating him to stop this contest upon the conclusion

18:03 of round number four.

18:04 Declaring the winner by way of knockout

18:07 and still WBC silver super welterweight champion,

18:13 still the King, King Calum Walsh!

18:21 Still undefeated, and still the WBC US silver champion,

18:28 King Calum Walsh gets his hand raised once again

18:31 tonight inside Commerce Casino as he addresses the crowd

18:35 after another win now 8-0 at home.
