01:45Gong Lai in the black trunks.
01:47Julio Lobo in the white.
01:50Nice touch of the hand and sportsmanship to kick it off.
01:54Open stance matchup.
01:56Julio Lobo coming out in orthodox.
01:58Gong Lai out in southpaw.
02:01Gong Lai with the first strike.
02:03The kick to the inside leg.
02:04Now the body kick.
02:07Lobo firing back just not quite as fast.
02:09You know, he always work.
02:11Yeah, I mean, you called it, Sarah.
02:12You knew that Lobo was going to come forward and try to hammer him in the clinch.
02:17But on the other side, you know, Gong Lai also an Omnoy Stadium champion.
02:21You do not earn that title without being able to clinch.
02:26Absolutely.
02:27And there, the movement from Gong Lai.
02:29Impressive going in.
02:30He shoots to the body there.
02:32Getting just out of the way of the kick.
02:34Lobo coming again with that right leg.
02:37Hitting the body now.
02:38Trying to set up those hands.
02:39But Gong Lai going to the legs.
02:40He's pushing Lobo back.
02:43Sedu there in the clinch.
02:44A really great back and forth.
02:46Now we are back outside.
02:48Another test.
02:49Gong Lai locked him.
02:50A big right hand from Lobo.
02:53Pushing him back.
02:54He's getting excited.
02:55You can see it.
02:56He continues to build as the rounds go on.
02:58Now he's got Gong Lai on the ropes.
03:01Gong Lai needs to get the guard up.
03:02He's countering back.
03:03It's an elbow one.
03:04Back and forth, Doug.
03:06Oh, they go to war.
03:08Throwing elbows in the phone booth.
03:11Gong Lai, he needs to keep his guard up though.
03:14We have seen him get caught with the four-ounce gloves.
03:17Constantly swimming.
03:19That's what you got to do.
03:19You can't stay still.
03:20You got to continuously swim or Lobo will eventually find a dominant position and just hammer with his elbows.
03:27Yeah, I like the teeth of the leg from Lobo there.
03:30Set up these hands and stop Kong Lai from coming in with his hands.
03:34And as he stumbles forward, Lobo takes advantage.
03:37He just grabs that head and pulls it right down into his chest.
03:40A lot of power.
03:42What an opening round for these two.
03:45Super star.
03:47Here we go, round two.
03:49Good show of sportsmanship.
03:51And right away, Lobo's starting to march forward.
03:55He's got Kong Lai on the back foot.
03:58Yeah, that's where he wants him.
04:00Kong Lai, though, sometimes does his good work when he baits someone to come forward.
04:04But the problem is Lobo stays so long.
04:07Look how far away he is when he punches his full force power to the face.
04:12And Kong Lai just a little bit short.
04:15Oh, he cracked him.
04:17This is the main event.
04:19We knew these two stadium champions were going to collide.
04:22Both these two look like they're in a bad way.
04:24Both throwing heavy power.
04:27But both of these guys stumbling big stances, trying to find the knockout shot.
04:32Lobo ties up Kong Lai.
04:34So many big shots going both ways.
04:37Nice little keep there from Lobo.
04:39Not just the chins on these men, but the willpower.
04:42They continue to fight.
04:44Not just fight.
04:44They're smart in it.
04:45They go into the clinch.
04:46Fighting.
04:47It gets even.
04:48Back and forth.
04:49This is a non-stop war.
04:51A stumble back and a step forward there, Lobo.
04:54With the power, dealing with the pressure.
04:56And still coming out.
04:57Swinging.
04:59Guns a-blazing.
05:00There's the clapper.
05:01They're both on autopilot.
05:02This is where they are most comfortable.
05:04In the chaos.
05:06Toe-to-toe exchanges.
05:07All the way to the barrel.
05:11Olivier Goss had to jump in.
05:13I'm glad I'm not a judge.
05:15Oh, these are the fights we love and live for.
05:19A banger.
05:21The main event.
05:22That one Friday fights.
05:23Lumpini Stadium.
05:25Final round underway.
05:26Conkly throwing down with Lobo.
05:29Lobo's got the range.
05:31And those hands are landing.
05:32Crazy!
05:33Conkly still stumbling forward with the power shots of his own.
05:37Kicking the legs.
05:38Coming up top.
05:39Now to the body.
05:40He can't...
05:41This mayhem play out here ringside.
05:43And they continue to just trade toe-to-toe.
05:47Heavy-handed exchanges Lobo now.
05:50Using his knees.
05:52But Conkly's countering the knees with punching.
05:55I don't know.
05:55He's doing more damage.
05:57But this is Lobo's game.
05:58He's a body snatcher.
05:59He attacks the body with the hands and with the knees.
06:02And that's where he gets a big old left hand up top.
06:05Gets a knockdown.
06:07The first knockdown of this fight.
06:09Round three.
06:10Conkly's in.
06:11I'm fine.
06:11That wasn't a knockdown.
06:12It was a stumble.
06:13But he can't.
06:14Now he's unscathed.
06:15He's stumbling.
06:16Can Lobo find something to get the finish?
06:18We thought he was done before.
06:20A big air wall from Lobo.
06:23Oh, can he put him down, Sarah?
06:25He goes to the body.
06:26Back upstairs.
06:27How is this man standing, Sarah?
06:30Insane the way that Conkly just keeps going.
06:33Lobo now locking up, making sure it is power.
06:37And Clyde firing back.
06:39Oh, this is just mayhem.
06:41Lobo stumbled again.
06:42He is not locked, but those hands are laying him.
06:45Big shots.
06:46Can he put away?
06:47Gunkly, 30 seconds to go.
06:50Gunkly hanging in there.
06:52Big heart on display.
06:54Durable.
06:55Lobo looking tired, Sarah.
06:57Lobo's looking tired.
06:58Gunkly's looking tired.
07:00And they're still throwing venomous hands.
07:02It's one way.
07:03Then it goes the other.
07:04Lobo's now pushing.
07:06Gunkly back.
07:07He's stumbling around.
07:09Big elbows.
07:09Big loop at hand.
07:11Who can get it?
07:12Oh, they're on autopilot.
07:14They're just throwing everything all heart right now.
07:18The crowd cheering them on.
07:22Oh, what a fight in the main event.
