00:01Alright fellas, one of the rules in the back. Let's have a good clean fight. Obey my commands at all times.
00:05Most importantly, protect yourself at all times. Touch them up and let's fight.
00:10Alright, our future bout of the evening, it's the hometown kid, Nico Hernandez.
00:14Black and red trunks, Robert Ledesma in the orange and black.
00:21As everyone excited to see the return of Nico Hernandez.
00:28We've always been talking about the return of Deontay Wilder, but it's also a return for Hernandez.
00:34He was a very talented kid at the amateur ranks.
00:39Undefeated at 11-0.
00:42And he's such a huge part of the city here.
00:46He helped bring the USA Boxing Junior Olympics to Wichita last summer.
00:52So he proudly reps Wichita.
00:55This is a huge moment for him to have an event like this in his hometown and to be a part of it.
01:07Yeah, he just landed a good left hook to the body.
01:13Nice.
01:14Another left hook to the body.
01:16Really good shot there as Hernandez said he wanted it to be impressive.
01:22Knows there's a lot of eyeballs watching this one.
01:27Nico now switching to southpaw.
01:33Now darts in with the jab.
01:35Now going to the body.
01:44The Ledesma's been around a while.
01:46Turned pro in 2011.
01:52Now Hernandez comes forward with that right hand.
01:55Now going to the body.
01:56Ledesma creeps forward now.
02:04Right hand just missed.
02:06Back to the body.
02:07As Hernandez
02:08now goes upstairs.
02:12Good mix of shots there by Hernandez.
02:15Yeah, I think if Nico gets a knockdown,
02:17it's going to be off a body shot.
02:19And he's certainly
02:20pouring it on to the body of Ledesma now.
02:23Continued right hands
02:26to the left side.
02:28And a huge jab
02:29as Ledesma is trying to urge on the crowd.
02:36And Nico let him know
02:37this is my hometown.
02:41And those body shots,
02:43you can tell that they already have
02:44Ledesma,
02:46like his feet are off balance.
02:49You can tell.
02:51Now left hook
02:52connects for Hernandez
02:53as he continues to go to the body.
02:56And you can see
02:57he's starting to curl up
02:58more and more,
03:00Gabe.
03:00So that shows me
03:01that the body shots
03:03are really wearing down
03:04on Ledesma.
03:06Yeah, they are.
03:08That right hand again.
03:10And Nico goes on both sides.
03:12And just ripping
03:13Ledesma out.
03:14Ledesma finally has to take a knee.
03:16There's not a lot of time
03:23left in this round.
03:25Ledesma
03:26is able to get to his feet.
03:29He may be able to survive
03:30this opening round
03:31and he does.
03:32values.
03:34å ±å°Ž

03:55Buster Douglas, he was at the presser and weigh in yesterday.
04:23If there's anyone that knows a thing or two about massive upsets, it's that man.
04:31Pulled off one of, not even just the biggest boxing upset, one of the biggest sports upsets of all time.
04:38Oh no, for sure.
04:39Upsetting Mike Tyson years ago when Tyson was running through everybody.
04:45And Buster did it with his mother passing two weeks to that Tyson fight.
04:51Big win.
04:52Massive respect for Douglas here as we resume things.
04:58This is Nico Hernandez and see if he can continue to finish what he started in round one.
05:04And now Nico just pouring it on with that left hook.
05:07Back to the body now.
05:08And now he knocks Ledesma back.
05:14I think that was a little bit more of an off-balance knockdown.
05:18But it's certainly counted as Ledesma's back to his feet.
05:23I like the aggression by Nico, man.
05:25He's really pressing the pressure right now.
05:28And he is not wasting any time.
05:33He said boxing's all he knows.
05:36Another right hand by Hernandez.
05:41Delivering to the body.
05:46Ledesma's got to...
05:49As he takes another body shot.
05:51And you can just see the big breaths of air.
05:55He is just trying to regather himself.
05:57Can he get to his feet?
05:58And that is it.
06:00And that is it.
06:01Nico Hernandez.
06:06With the hometown victory.
06:09Just a dominant performance from the opening bell on.
06:31Gabe, I know you talked about Trujillo and how you were a little bit frustrated.
06:35How he wouldn't be pouring it on and not letting his hands go.
06:38But I think you had that problem with Nico.
06:39No, that's...
06:40I think Ledesma thought he was getting road on.
06:44I think punches was coming from everywhere.
06:47You see, you know, he couldn't defend anything.
06:50Nico was throwing punches from all angles, body, head shots.
06:55Beautiful...
06:56Beautiful breakdown of combos.
07:01Yeah, Nico, just outstanding work.
07:05And give credit to Ledesma.
07:06He got up twice.
07:07Tried to fight through it.
07:09But only so many body shots that a guy can take.
07:13And that certainly was the case as Nico was able to finish it off to the body to get the victory.
07:23So, both men now to the center of the ring.
07:29Let's send it up to our announcer, Lupe Contreras, for the official time of the stoppage.
07:36Ladies and gentlemen, inside the GCC ring referee, Nick Behrens, reaching the count of ten with an official time of one minute, 12 seconds of round number two, declaring the winner.
07:48By way of knockout, repping the dub, Wichita, Kansas, Nico Hernandez.
