00:00So we are ready to go here in Astana.
00:17Some women's Bantamweight bonus action for you
00:20before our originally scheduled main car.
00:23This is Belausa Mudziman taking on Maria Penili.
00:30Mudziman, again, the former World Amateur Champion.
00:34Terrific amateur at both the youth and the senior level.
00:37Looking to make a statement here tonight
00:39and really put her name amongst the big names
00:42in the Bantamweight division,
00:43the likes of Dina Forslund, the likes of Cherneka Johnson.
00:47You know, Corey, the first thing I noticed about Mudziman,
00:50she does what a lot of Kazakh fighters do.
00:51They use that left hook from the outside.
00:54And that's how you fight a southpaw.
00:56The left hook is the punch, not the right hand.
00:58The left hook is it comes from the blind side.
01:01And she's already thrown a couple of them
01:02and tapped her with it.
01:04But I'm going to tell you, as the fight goes on,
01:05she's going to start reaching her chin a little bit more
01:07with that left hook.
01:09And certainly this style is something
01:11that we'll see a lot of here tonight, Ray.
01:13And as you mentioned, leading with that lead hand,
01:16but always threatening with that lead hook as well.
01:18Yeah, of course, of course.
01:19You know, they got that right hand cocked, ready to fire.
01:21But it's that left hook that comes from the blind side,
01:24and they use it effectively.
01:28Eight two-minute rounds here in our opening contest.
01:32You know, one of the things they do, too, is they faint.
01:34They faint, head faint, you know, body faint.
01:37And they get the other person to lead, and then, boom,
01:41they counter you with that left hook, short right hand,
01:44or right uppercut.
01:45They don't like, they all like to throw a lot of right uppercuts.
01:47Get you leaning in, throw that right uppercut.
01:50Shot to the body there from Mudziman.
01:52You know, Corey, the other thing is, what do you notice?
01:59She's very composed.
02:01She's not letting the audience or anything get her off her game plan.
02:07She's very composed.
02:08Keep her composure.
02:09The crowd getting into it already here.
02:13Mudziman has fought plenty on home soil,
02:16only fought once outside of Kazakhstan,
02:18that being in Thailand once,
02:20where she picked up another first-round knockout.
02:24Now tries to come in behind the right hand,
02:26and that'll do it for the opening round.
02:39The crowd gets a lot of fun.
02:41It's a lot of fun.
02:42It's a lot of fun.
02:43It's a lot of fun.
02:44It's a lot of fun.
02:45It's a lot of fun.
02:46It's a lot of fun.
02:47It's a lot of fun.
02:48It's a lot of fun.
02:49It's a lot of fun.
02:50It's a lot of fun.
02:51It's a lot of fun.
02:52It's a lot of fun.
02:53It's a lot of fun.
02:54It's a lot of fun.
02:55It's a lot of fun.
02:56It's a lot of fun.
02:57It's a lot of fun.
02:58It's a lot of fun.
02:59It's a lot of fun.
03:00It's a lot of fun.
03:01It's a lot of fun.
03:02It's a lot of fun.
03:03It's a lot of fun.
03:04It's round two underway, our opening contest.
03:30Lausa Muzdeman and Maria Pennelli, Lausa Pennelli, scored an eight round unanimous decision
03:44over Charame Salvador in a rematch, she's fought three rematches thus far in her pro career,
03:52so a little diversity of opposition here for Pennelli for the first time in her career.
03:57Well, you know, one thing about Pennelli, and there's a lot of people on this card that
04:02are from the Philippines, so they, obviously, they're not worried about going into somebody's
04:07backyard.
04:08When you know you can fight, you go back, you go into somebody's backyard and looking for
04:13the upset.
04:14And Muzdeman placing that right hand to the body a couple of times already here early
04:19in the round.
04:20One thing we saw during the replays there, Ray, is just how creative Muzdeman can be with that
04:30left hand.
04:31As you mentioned, always thinking about that hook, but just the way that she could turn
04:34it into an uppercut, the different things that she could do with it just off of the extension
04:39of that lead hand.
04:40Yes.
04:41Oh!
04:42Good body shots.
04:43Good shots.
04:44Throwing punches and bunches, baby.
04:46Punches and bunches.
04:47Good work here from Muzdeman.
04:49You know, Corey, when you also, when you fight a softball, it's all about the footwork.
04:53Now, a lot of times you get tangled up at each other's feet, but Muzdeman got good footwork
04:58here.
04:59She's in and out.
05:00Good hand speed.
05:02Boom.
05:03What they were going to see all night with the Kazakh fighters, they're going to use
05:07that left hook a lot when they fight a softball, especially specifically when they fight a softball.
05:13And she's been doing it very effectively all night.
05:17Final 10 seconds of a big round for Muzdeman as we are underway here in Astana.
05:29Right here, look.
05:58Boom.
05:59Boom.
06:00Oh, double right hand.
06:01Left hand.
06:02Ends up with the left hand.
06:03Boom.
06:04She's not.
06:05She's creating.
06:06She's closing the distance with her footwork.
06:08Lean more with that right hand.
06:11And that's what you do.
06:12Footwork.
06:13When you fight a softball, the distance is very important.
06:15And Muzdeman is starting to shorten that distance.
06:19It's round three underway.
06:29Let's see if Muzdeman could build upon what was a dominant round two.
06:34You know, even though Muzdeman is throwing a lot of punches, this is the type of fight
06:39that Penelie would like.
06:41Because now when you fight a softball or a righty, you want that person in front of you.
06:46You know, Muzdeman moved pretty good.
06:49She was giving Penelie a problem with her footwork.
06:52Now she's standing more in front of her.
06:54You just gotta keep throwing punches.
06:57Make a war out of it.
06:59Make it a dogfight.
07:01When you'd have to think for Penelie.
07:04There she was.
07:05Good punch.
07:06Good catching and good punches.
07:07This fight turning into a war and Muzdeman closing the distance and fighting on the inside.
07:12That is Penelie's best chance.
07:14Because from long range, Muzdeman is spectacularly talented.
07:17Yes.
07:18Absolutely.
07:19And she's dictating a fight from a distance.
07:21So Penelie's got to close that.
07:24Make it a shorter, make it a dogfight in the trenches.
07:31Good bodywork again there from Muzdeman.
07:33Good two punch combination right along the belt line.
07:35Now steps in with another right hand.
07:38She's throwing punches that are going a little below line.
07:44The referee not acknowledging them.
07:46If the referee says nothing, keep throwing them I suppose.
07:51They say it's along the belt line.
07:52Okay, I got it.
07:56Final 30 seconds here of round three.
07:58All out body attack from Muzdeman here.
08:02But you can see Muzdeman is very, very well trained.
08:05Very well schooled.
08:07Feint up and down.
08:08You know, changing.
08:12Changing levels.
08:13Changing levels.
08:15That's the word.
08:16Changing levels.
08:17That's what you want to do.
08:18Specifically against the southpaw.
08:20You can't let them have a, you can't let them draw a beat on you.
08:26Ah, Penelie.
08:27That's it.
08:28That a girl.
08:31She's feeling a little bitter, you know, feeling it herself.
08:50I did not do that.
08:51Still, that seems to be the thing.
08:52I was feeling it.
08:53It is not so sad.
08:55I would not do that.
08:56That we took a picture.
08:57That was really nice.
08:58About two seconds.
08:59I don't know.
09:00You know, neat.
09:01That's a good.
09:02That's it.
09:03That's on the right.
09:04You can see it.
09:05I'm on the right.
09:06I'm on the right.
09:07This kind of thing.
09:08You can see it.
09:09You can see it.
09:10We'll see it.
09:11You can see it.
09:12You can see it.
09:13It's a good morning.
09:15It's a good morning.
09:16You can see it.
09:17It's a bad morning.
09:18round four begins
09:30and as i said the fight's getting closer and closer
09:35you know it's they could now they could put it in the phone booth
09:39now they could put it in the phone booth this is the type of fight
09:42that pennele wants and needs to be successful
09:45well credit to pennele as we saw during the replays there ray
09:51when muslimon has been going to the body pennele has just stood in there
09:56in order to get her shot off as well and that's one of the risks
09:59when you target the body so extensively you might get countered up top
10:02of course and that's what you want if you're pennele
10:05you're hoping that she's going to go low you drop your elbows and you shoot
10:09straight you drop your elbows catch the punches
10:11then shoot straight punches and catch your back and counter punch your back
10:14he's actually doing much better these last couple rounds
10:19there's dimon going back downstairs with that right hand again big left hook up top put a little extra zip on that one
10:25you know one thing you see pennele do pennele now is doing a little head feigning herself
10:31but she's letting muzzaman move her around
10:37muzzaman is dictating by moving her around
10:39right now it's better ring generalship
10:41but she's in a she's in a dogfight pennele is making a dogfight which she has to do to make it
10:47successful
10:48right to pennele who took this fight on very short notice
10:52oh good shot there for pennele maybe an opportunity
10:56although it looked like muzzaman just lost her balance there as she steps back in with the right hand of the body and up top
11:02final 10 seconds signs of life for pennele here in the fourth but another good round for the kazakh favorite
11:09but
11:38Yes, but again, that left hook's been working all night, boom, but Pennelly's closing the
12:01distance, Corey, but again, Moussaman just keeps dropping left hook, and Pennelly runs
12:07running into it.
12:31Back to action here in our opening contest, round five underway.
12:35This is uncharted territory for Belusa Moussaman, who has never been beyond the fourth round,
12:43has only gone the distance once in her career, five knockouts in her six victories, and these
12:49are good rounds for her, Ray, because in recent times, we mentioned the knockout streak, the
12:54first round knockout streak that she's on, but facing the likes of Shusila Virad and Monica
12:59Singh, they were fighters that just could not hang with her skill-wise.
13:04At least Pennelly is in here giving her something to think about.
13:07Yes, she is, and as you climb the ladder, you fight better and better fighters, and people
13:12are going to take you the distance, people are going to give you more rounds, and that's
13:15exactly what Pennelly's doing.
13:16The type of fighter she needs at this point, at this point in her career.
13:22But what I like about Moussaman, what she's doing is she's moving to her left, moving to
13:29her left, then comes back to her right.
13:32She's controlling the pace of the fight, controlling the distance of the fight with her footwork.
13:42See, right now Pennelly's doing ring around to Rosie, what Angelo W. used to say, ring around,
13:46no, you've got to cut off the ring, slide over, make her go the opposite way, but she's not
13:51doing that, she just keeps following her.
13:53That's right hand to the body again there from Moussaman.
13:57And maybe, Ray, for someone like Pennelly, who just walked into another right hand, again,
14:02taking this fight on short notice, this added movement from Moussaman, making Pennelly
14:06expend a little bit more energy, might be a pathway to a stoppage for her.
14:09Yes, and also the fact that she's standing in the corner, not letting her legs rest.
14:14You want to give your legs rest when you're in the corner.
14:18Take as much rest as possible, it's only one minute.
14:21Straight right hand there for Moussaman.
14:24Really putting it all together here in this round.
14:29So we want to make this fight for them as well.
14:30We want two more
14:38parts, but the Moussaman who are not ready for this world.
14:43Let's bring, go!
14:46You will be one more day on something Даже駅 ό itures
15:20Here we go with round six.
15:33Both women waiting at center ring, eager to get back to action.
15:37Again, Penelope's got to close that distance, which she's trying to do.
15:41She's trying to do it, but she's got to keep throwing more punches.
15:44She's coming in.
15:45She's got to throw punches.
15:46She's got to lead first.
15:50Yeah, it's almost as if Penelope is waiting to take one extra step to get to the inside,
15:57and Muzdemond is saying, no, I'm just going to hit you to the body instead.
16:00Penelope keeps stepping to her left.
16:01She's got to step to the right.
16:04You know, as the orthodox fighter, you step to your left to push the other fighter to their left.
16:10Penelope's got to step to her right, push Muzdemond to her right.
16:13That's how you can control the pacing, control the footwork.
16:21This combination there a moment ago for Muzdemond.
16:24That's something that Muzdemond has done really well in this fight, is kind of use that throwaway right hand.
16:30The right hand is almost a decoy to jump in with the left hook.
16:33Corey, absolutely right.
16:34And like I said, she throws punches in bunches, and that's the one way it looks good to the judges,
16:42and the one way it keeps your opponent on the defense.
16:46And she's landing a lot of them, if not most of them.
16:49Yeah, and when she steps, she touches, and she steps around.
16:58Again, very good, very well schooled fighter, Muzdemond is.
17:04Crowd fired up here in Astana.
17:07You heard the chants of Muzdemond, the nickname of Belusa Muzdemond.
17:14Muzdemond likes to go to the body.
17:16I like that.
17:16She keeps banging that body.
17:19Final 10 seconds of another dominant round for Muzdemond.
17:30B Jimmy's provost!
17:32Firebow 방対 Kristor!
17:33Firebow 방対 Kristor!
17:34Firebow bem!
17:35One shot!
17:37One shot!
17:38One shot!
18:02Boom!
18:02Again!
18:03body shots keep banging that body keep banging that body take the gas out of the
18:08take the gas out of the car but but but penile man she's in the fight she's coming back a lot
18:13of heart a lot of desire she's trying i just think she's being over overwhelmed she outgunned
18:20round seven begins
18:33so between rounds moves demand's father also her trainer working the corner uh ray what are your
18:42thoughts on that dynamic fathers and sons in the corner feel like you're an expert on this
18:46everyone knows my view i i my father taught me a long time ago it's no good for father to be
18:52a father to be in a fighter's corner because emotion takes over the thought process never
18:59never i never believed in it and you see it doesn't work doesn't work i don't know i don't
19:04know if i've been successful in any uh in any fighters in you know american fighters i don't
19:11know so maybe it works in kazakh but it doesn't work in america i just don't think it works and
19:17the parent thinks they know their child better than anybody yeah but you got to be the parent
19:23because not the business partner because that becomes it you become a business partner wouldn't
19:28become their trainer or their manager just be their father
19:31oh good right beautiful right hand there from musliman what musliman's been doing all night
19:41boy but she does what she faints and then she punches she faints so she got you thinking
19:49just simple defense there from musliman too just step out of range slide back slide back
19:54and then she slides right back in and punching position
20:01obviously she doesn't respect benille's power at this point
20:05benille's trying but she's pushing the punches at this point she's not really throwing them
20:09she's pushing them which is an indication that she's being gassed out a little bit
20:15but she keeps fighting she's got a lot of heart a lot of heart
20:19final 10 seconds but nearly slowing down it's still very game as she takes one more right hand
20:31as we head towards the final round of our opening contest
20:49so
21:00so
21:02so
21:04so
21:06so
21:12...who probably right now could be a significant challenger for a world title.
21:36It's a big ask for Pennelly, but she has been game all night long.
21:39You just said it. She is game. She's got a lot of heart. She's being outgunned.
21:44But believe me, she goes the distance. She will be a winner even though she's a loser.
21:50See, now Muzdeman's trying to go all out. Last round, and there's no reason to hold back.
21:56She should go all out.
21:57Big right hand there from Muzdeman.
22:00Pennelly felt that one, and she's feeling these body shots.
22:05She's covering up. She's just trying to survive at this point.
22:08And Muzdeman trying to give the Kazakh audience a knockout victory here to cheer for.
22:19Pennelly's just in survival mode. I think she'll finish on her feet.
22:24But, but, but, but, let her go. She throws it out there.
22:26But Muzdeman's doing what she's supposed to do.
22:28She's doing what she's supposed to do.
22:30Close the show. That's what everybody will say. Close the show.
22:33That's what every great fighter does. Or tries to do.
22:37Pennelly waving Muzdeman in.
22:40She's getting what she's asking for.
22:42Yeah, the girl. Yeah, the girl.
22:43Call her in.
22:44There's Muzdeman trying to line Pennelly up for another one of those big right hands.
23:02You know, Pennelly could counterpunch.
23:08She's actually a very good counterpuncher.
23:10She just has, like I said, the punch is a little slow tonight because she doesn't think she's in the best of shape.
23:15She got this fight on last minute, on the last minute notice.
23:19Final 15 seconds of this contest.
23:22You're right, Ray. Pennelly, it looks like, will finish this fight on her feet.
23:29Double tough, but just outgunned here tonight.
23:37That was an excellent first fight of our show.
23:43A lot of credit to Muzdeman as well for someone that, you know, has only had a handful of professional fights.
23:54Turned pro back in 2017.
23:55Has really only truly been a pro for about two years as we take a look back at the highlights.
24:01She's really put together a pro style.
24:03She does not look like someone who's fresh out of the amateurs.
24:07Isn't over-anxious with her offense.
24:09Very composed in the ring.
24:10You just said, very composed, but she's had an extensive amateur career.
24:14So, it's just, this is an extension of that.
24:16She's had enough fights.
24:17At a certain point, when you have enough fights, you're a pro, even though you're fighting as an amateur, you know what I mean?
24:22And she's, like you said, she knows how to keep her composure.
24:27Her footwork is excellent.
24:29That's the most impressive thing for me is her footwork.
24:37Tough night at the office for Maria Pennelly.
24:40Yeah.
24:40But she will certainly get some phone calls, even off of this performance, for other contenders, other prospects, looking for a tough night.
24:48Maria Pennelly, with a few more weeks of preparation, could be a handful for some other fighters.
24:53Absolutely can be.
24:54Like I said, she put on the show tonight, and this is on a short notice.
24:57You give her enough time to train, you can see she knows how to fight.
25:00Like you said, she's going to get a lot more opportunities because of this fight.
25:03Like you said, she's going to get some fun.
25:04Like you said, she's going to get some fun.
25:08Thank you very much.
25:38So Belusa Muzdeman picks up the unanimous decision as we kick things off here in Astana.
25:46Big ovation for Muzdeman as we now look towards our main card.
25:56What a way to kick things off here in Astana.
