00:02This is the fourteenth round of the competition. It's the round of 32 of the category.
00:09of the light heavyweights. In the ring are the American Clay with the number 272 and the Belgian de Chaos. The American
00:18Clay is an 18-year-old young man and stands 1.87 m tall. He is one of the best elements of the team.
00:25American, which we will now see in action. The American is in fact credited with numerous victories
00:33before the limit and therefore he is defined as a boxer with a lot of power. We have
00:40having said that this is the fourteenth comparison and now let's see the results of the other matches
00:45played so far. For the lightweights, the German Lempio won by knockout in the third round,

01:38The Ghanaian boxer won the first round. And the Australian Bukowski prevailed on points.
01:45on the South African Schutt. In the middleweight category, Romanian Monea won on points over
01:51Paparizov Bulgaria and then victory of the Swiss Buki over the Englishman Addison. This is the second
02:00light heavyweight title match. The first match saw Schappo win,
02:06the Soviet European middleweight champion who beat Luxembourgian Chilien on points.
02:14On the ring, we repeat, now I am the American Clay with the number 262 opposite the Belgian Bekaus.
02:43The American, as you will notice, is equipped with greater length and boxes with greater confidence.
02:51So far he has attempted to launch a few attacks but without much conviction.
03:00The Belgian has remained on the defensive up to this point.
03:08The American appears very agile, mobile on his legs, he tries a few attacks but with very little conviction.
03:19He has now blocked a right from the Belgian.
03:44The American has a feeling of not wanting to push hard but now he has landed a left handed shot
03:50'Belgian's warning.
03:52In this first shot we didn't see much, only we noticed the greater authority of Clay, the bugile
03:59that you see on the corner, eighteen years old, 1.87m tall.
04:02The ability to use his reach and the ability to move easily on his legs led him to fight
04:10in suplexe.
04:12Evidently he never forced the pace, he never launched an attack with conviction, also because his opponent,
04:19the Belgian you now see in the frame fought a little fearfully.
04:24He tried more than anything to defend himself and was favored more than anything by the circumstance that the American still
04:32he did not take any action with real commitment.
04:37The American is one of the favorites in this light heavyweight division, weighing in at 81 kg.
04:45To be honest, he seemed like a good player but he hasn't shown off all his potential yet.
04:51The second half begins.
05:16The Belgian makes some attempts to attack but then doesn't follow through.
05:23The American easily controls the situation.
05:27However, it seems to us that Slay is a little slow, or at least at this stage, a little slow.
05:33But now he brought a nice left-footed uppercut.
05:39Control the meeting at your leisure.
05:41A right-footed shot has now clearly shaken the Belgian.
05:45A right that touched the jaw.
05:56The American moves with surprising lightness and even elegance.
06:01To make one feel unsure of oneself.
06:10He is superior in all areas, but now he had to take a right.
06:26It's the first right-footed shot the Belgian has landed.
06:35Slay would probably be a little uncomfortable with a very fast man if that's his normal pace.
06:43But with Becaud there is frankly no risk.
06:50A precise right to the jaw has the Belgian half on the canvas.
06:55And the referee starts the count.
06:59Here, do you see Parker?
07:02The referee who counted the eight seconds.
07:06Another light right.
07:10The Belgian is in clear difficulty.
07:24There are 20 seconds left in the second half.
07:31Now a nice series of Clay with left and right hooks to the face.
07:41And the referee stopped the fight.
07:47Awarding success to Clay.
07:52There were just seconds left in the second half.
07:55But by then the meeting had said it all.
07:58For Becaud, in fact, there was no chance.
08:03And the American had already built up a very significant lead.
08:08Among other things, the two knockdowns of the Belgian
08:11they had now clearly tipped the scales in Clay's favor.
08:17Here's the Belgian who looks a little annoyed
08:23for the bad luck because in fact
08:26faced in the first match of this tournament
08:29a boxer of great value
08:31one of the best entrants in this tournament.
08:42Clay
08:44he fought without making a full effort
08:47and when he did it
08:49you saw in this second shot
08:51when he scored
08:52a nice series of shots
08:54it has been seen that
08:56he throws his fists with violence
08:58with precision
08:59and it strikes especially in the points
09:01more effective.
09:06He's a young man
09:07at 18 years old
09:09and therefore it is destined
09:11to complete a good career.
09:15Official victory
09:16then assigned to Clay
09:18by technical knockout in the second round.
