00:00Wiley, wearing the red, straight to the center of the octagon, goes Aswell Jr.
00:06Straight away.
00:08And you know why?
00:09Because he wants him as close to the fence as possible.
00:12But when he shoots, he backs him into it.
00:16Wiley is a self-confessed slow starter.
00:19A habit he might have picked up in his Muay Thai days.
00:22He also does like to read his opponents, but Aswell, not giving him an inch.
00:28Yeah, the Muay Thai, the definite start, very slowly builds the rhythm.
00:34Oh, tracked him now, Aswell with a big right hand.
00:41This is good pressure here from Aswell Jr.
00:44And you're right, at least he keeps Luke Riley on the outside of this octagon if he wants to change
00:48it up.
00:49If he gets hurt, he can scramble, shoot for a takedown and just press him all against the fence.
00:54But he's landed some good shots here and now working in on the takedown.
01:01Working over the body as well as Aswell.
01:08Yeah, Aswell's going to be careful here though.
01:10If he's not engaging in a tight clinch with over 60 tight bumps in fights,
01:14he's going to have a deadly tight clinch, knees and elbows.
01:25Aswell has been on great form all week.
01:27Every time I interacted with him, the biggest smile on his face was full of excitement.
01:31I had that note from when we saw him in Rio as well.
01:34Real positive kid.
01:35He believes that he's the next guy.
01:37He should be the one that we're looking at as the big prospect in the division.
01:42That's how you have to think if you're in this spot.
01:45You can't let yourself think, oh, I'm here just to be part for Luke Riley's show here.
01:50Well, that's what he said.
01:51He said, I'm a main event fighter.
01:54Pre-UFC, I was always the main event.
01:56I was the guy putting on the show, selling the tickets.
02:00He's like, yeah, I understand Luke Riley's the local guy.
02:03That's why I've got that opportunity.
02:05But he's going to turn him around and take him back to go.
02:08Stretchy was still overwhelmed by an end.
02:11He's doing a good job.
02:12That's a nice step by Aswell.
02:15Riley Antrim back there just missed with that left hook of his own.
02:19That's a good right hand, but Aswell more than willing to trade.
02:25Oh, solid one-two.
02:29This is a big strategy for Aswell Jr. too.
02:32Exchange a little bit, land back and forth, and then keep going back to this.
02:35Don't let him get comfortable.
02:37Don't let Luke Riley think, okay, we're going to sit here and just have a kickboxing fight.
02:41And for Riley, he's got to try to keep surfing away from this fence.
02:45He's too comfortable sitting right here.
02:46He's got to try to get into the center of this octagon and own the space.
02:50Where Aswell getting stuck in.
02:52Now he's going around.
02:55Now he's got Aswell Jr. on the outside of this octagon.
03:03Two minutes left to work in round number one.
03:06Oh, oh!
03:08No, I thought he was hurt.
03:09He's just down the ball in with it.
03:15Just down the ball in with it.
03:19Look at that's my darling.
03:24No strikes.
03:27Riley believes he'll be too fast for the Texan.
03:33He does have very impressive speed.
03:35I've got the chance to go up to next generation of watching training.
03:40He is very impressive to watch indeed.
03:43Yeah, with the slow start, I mean, that's precisely what he had.
03:46But now at the end of the round, Luke Riley's really coming alive.
03:51Set that shot up.
03:53Dippin' over!
03:54Dippin' over!
03:56Oh, big right hand for Riley.
03:59And he comes out.
04:04Settling in to this round now is Luke Riley.
04:07He's finding his range.
04:09Cross the body left up to him.
04:12Set it up though.
04:13Dippin' head!
04:16Dippin' head!
04:17That left hook for Riley's.
04:20Nice body shots there.
04:25So fast.
04:26Very technical hands from Luke Riley.
04:35Beautiful job.
04:37Not many low kicks from Riley, which is surprising.
04:40Maybe he'll have the take-down.
04:42Yeah.
04:42C'est bon, c'est bon, c'est bon, c'est bon.
05:13C'est bon, c'est bon, c'est bon.
05:42On the chin, yeah.
05:43And that's the problem for Aswell Jr., he's those hands, a little bit, he swings a little while, he sticks
05:49his chin up, he's got to be careful.
05:50Riley is finding the mark now, though.
05:54Aswell has never been stopped as a professional.
05:56you can see he's got a good chin
05:59oh wow he's
06:00a lot of dog in him as well
06:02yeah he's eating some big shots
06:04hasn't gone down really hasn't even bucks
06:06but you can see it affect him but
06:07fighting through it
06:09and then Raheley doing a great job
06:12getting right out of there
06:13jones having to get an opportunity here for him
06:16yeah bit of a slip
06:18he'll take it though
06:19yeah exactly
06:21just as Raheley was starting to
06:23go over here there
06:24on turn things up
06:29take your thoughts back to that 3 round war
06:34Aswell had with Bogdan Grant on Dana White's contender series
06:38that was incredible stuff
06:42Riley's got the hands separated here good job
06:44he's got to get off that fence
06:46and when he's moving forward
06:48that's when he's having the best success
06:49he's pushing Aswell Jr. back
06:55I love that Riley's never chasing these knockouts
06:58he's just putting combos together
07:00he always gets back to his jab
07:02he doesn't ignore the body
07:05couple of good lands for Aswell
07:08chasing Riley around the outer octagon
07:12good jab to the body
07:14there's just such a difference though
07:15in the crispiness and the technique of Riley's shots
07:18beautiful to watch
07:21Aswell
07:22still hanging in there though
07:24he's very close
07:25very close
07:26he's not as clean
07:27not as precise
07:28but he's being very effective
07:30he's not as close
07:32he's being very close
07:36yeah
07:36he's not as close
