00:00Inches, taller, 0.8 pounds, heavier on the scales as Myanmar takes on Israel.
00:06Global rules Muay Thai, we're going three 300 rounds.
00:09Ten point must system will be in use.
00:11Three knockdowns in one round is a technical knockout.
00:14No throws or grappling allowed.
00:18Barrow carries the hope of Myanmar.
00:22From the blue corner,
00:25Sheer Cohen!
00:36Out of Bear Kex Training Center,
00:40Sheer Cohen is back.
00:43This young lady is so aggressive.
00:46Absolutely runs right through people like a steamroller.
00:51From the red corner,
01:03The Kaeya Leopard.
01:07One of the most intimidating figures in the out-of-weight division.
01:13Just sent shivers down your spine with one cold glance.
01:18She's got the power in her hands.
01:21Representing Israel!
01:27Sheer Cohen!
01:32Representing Myanmar!
01:36The Kaeya Leopard!
01:39The Kaeya Leopard!
01:40The Kaeya Leopard!
01:41Farrow!
01:43Pete! Tom!
01:45Immediately, Sheer Cohen comes forward.
01:49These are two contracted athletes.
01:51Both have tasted that life-changing $100,000 contract.
01:55Now is the time to show the world that you are the very best Atomweight on planet Earth.
02:03In those four-ounce gloves, we've seen her run through her opponents
02:06and she starts to build up that volume and find her range.
02:10But she's got to be careful because Vero, she's so, so powerful.
02:14You got to be careful walking in to Vero like that.
02:17She's an absolute wood chipper.
02:19She will grind you down if you enter into her range.
02:21But Cohen's doing a great job.
02:23She's choosing quality over quantity.
02:26Looking to time those big shots.
02:28And she fires that right hand down the middle.
02:30Yeah, she's got to time Shears entries.
02:32She is so bouncy.
02:34She knows how to bounce in and out of the pocket.
02:37So Vero's got to stay patient and try to plant that bomb right at the right moment.
02:42But so far, she's got to hand combinations.
02:44Pump face.
02:45One more one grab a big hand.
02:47Big right hand from Vero.
02:49Vero's using the range when he wants.
02:51Oh, going for the spinning elbow.
02:53Cohen pulls her.
02:55It's been 10 for time with these two going back and forth.
02:59Cohen's got the speed.
03:00Vero's got the power.
03:02The shot selection.
03:03It's still anybody's game.
03:05And it's starting out a bit kind of how we expected it.
03:09Exciting.
03:10Vector to keep this pace up.
03:12It's going to be up to her to keep driving that furious pace that she has.
03:16And it's up to Vero to try to corral her into a cone.
03:20Try to crack her as she enters.
03:22It's going to be quality over quantity for sure for Vero.
03:25An important crossroads matchup in the Allen weight division.
03:31Vero coming forward.
03:33Very aggressive with the kicks.
03:35Trying to stomp a hole in the midsection of Sheer Cohen.
03:38As she gets forced back, a rare sight.
03:41Playing her pressure game.
03:43She wants to show she's the queen of the ring.
03:45But Cohen's coming back.
03:46Trying to stand in the center there and push Vero on the back.
03:50I don't know if I've ever seen someone do that though.
03:55Talent gets you in the building.
03:57But hard work keeps you here.
03:59And Sheer Cohen is known as the hardest worker in the room.
04:03Can Vero outwork the hardest worker?
04:06As they start to put hands on each other.
04:07Spinning back fist.
04:09Landed by Sheer Cohen.
04:10As they get inside the clinch.
04:13They're cut up.
04:16Well, an addition to the left hand right there.
04:18She misses with the right but follows up with the hook.
04:21Back inside the clinch.
04:23Now we're seeing the tides start to turn.
04:26Cohen's got the sharper punches.
04:28Especially because she's got the gas tank.
04:30She is a workhorse in the gym.
04:32And it's paying off now.
04:33As people start to get tired.
04:36Vero's swinging a little bit wider.
04:37Cohen's still shooting right down the center.
04:40And it's paying off for her.
04:41All the time.
04:42So expect Sheer to have that power throughout the whole fight too.
04:45I really like the follow up shot from Cohen.
04:48She leads with the right hand.
04:50And then follows it up with the left.
04:51And she often misses with the first shot.
04:54But finds a home for the second one.
04:56And it's usually itching to get in there.
04:59Turn me loose.
05:00Let me go.
05:02Yeah, I think Sheer Cohen has proved that she can continue to hang with the world's best.
05:07Every time she shows up here.
05:09And she is down to scrap.
05:11And that pace is going to stay high.
05:13But still just marching forward.
05:16Vero backed against the wall now.
05:18Unloading a fury of punches against Vero.
05:22Vero tying her up very wisely.
05:23But this has got to be fatiguing.
05:25This has got to...
05:26And Vero is used to bullying people around the ring.
05:29She's getting tossed to the ground.
05:31That's the fourth or fifth time that she's had to pick herself up off the ground.
05:35And push Cohen off of her.
05:37Cohen though...
05:39She's got a little bit of a cut there under the eye.
05:42But that does not slow Cohen down at all.
05:45She has been cut before.
05:47And she just keeps on pushing.
05:49Keeps on trucking forward.
05:51Vero tying her right back in your face.
05:53It is very, very discouraging.
05:56You feel like you just can't get this person off of you.
06:00And Vero cannot get Cohen off of her.
06:04She's fighting back.
06:05She's got the power.
06:06But Cohen's locking in.
06:08She falls down and says,
06:09Hey, you're coming with me.
06:10Get down here.
06:12She hit with a spinning back.
06:14Just misses.
06:16But she follows it up.
06:17She's always adding on.
06:21Ladies and gentlemen.
06:23After three rounds of battle.
