SportsTranscript
00:00...from Krasnoyarsk on the Yenisai River in Siberia.
00:05Remember what I told you to obey my commands and protect yourself at cold times.
00:09Remember the collective in the vestuario.
00:11You can save my strength and protect yourself in every moment.
00:13Give them a good fight.
00:22Nikisa's on.
00:23Getch!
00:24Fight number 13.
00:26Box!
00:28In with Noel Kanya Garcia from Villa del Totoro in Cordova.
00:36Two Southpawls here to get things started live on the zone.
00:41And both Barry come back.
00:43Yeah, they both come back.
00:44It's obviously the technically better boxer than Garcia.
00:47So he's rightfully taking the centre of the ring here and working behind that solid Southpawls jab.
00:52Just see him bending the knees there looking for the openings.
00:55And just be taking the space at the minute.
00:58And you know Garcia's tall and long.
01:01He's got to be careful.
01:01He doesn't feel that knees.
01:02He's jabbing it on to jump on him.
01:05And one of those combinations that he's so good at throwing.
01:07Yeah, hands down already trying to take the lead.
01:11Centre ring.
01:12Got to be careful though of Garcia's threat.
01:15Sixteen vicious knockouts.
01:18But a good body shot there from Nikita Zahn who's started with confidence and with a razzmatazz as well.
01:25And Noel Garcia just thinking about how to cope with the onslaught straight away because it's a fast start here.
01:32Yeah, it's good confidence out here from Zahn.
01:36But Garcia, total opposite here isn't he.
01:38Hands high.
01:39He's standing in front of Zahn.
01:41Offering a target to be hit but not really throwing anything back or not even moving too much.
01:45He's moving around a bit but at a slow pace and certainly did not really have any elusive movements around
01:51him.
01:51So he's just a duck at the minute here for Zahn.
01:54Yeah, he's just waiting isn't he for one big booming southpaw backhand.
02:00He looked very confident in the introductions.
02:02Noel Garcia and looking in terrific shape as well.
02:06But this Nikita Zahn is impressive and he's undefeated.
02:12And he's a very good amateur as well and knows his way around the ring and you can see that.
02:19And cleverly there because Garcia got his hand up nice and high.
02:22So Zahn when he still got left hand from southpaw Sanchez looping around the back of the left hand for
02:28the right hand glove I should say there to Garcia.
02:30Just trying to prise those hands down, open that defence and then with that then he sees a gap again
02:36then the punches go a little bit more bigger.
02:38The bodywork there from Zahn.
02:40Very good and it was a good southpaw jab as well and again from Zahn who's totally dominating this opening
02:48round.
02:48Very little coming from the Argentinian.
02:51And then with a couple of jabs there I can see this better from him just trying to punch straight
02:55after after Zahn.
02:57Body shots and head and combinations from Nikita Zahn.
03:02He's just saying he can fight it.
03:04A touch stand up in that sort of old amateur style and he can be caught.
03:11We've seen that before with Zahn but he's got a lot of rhythm and fluency, early doors here.
03:17We're not going to see that be a problem here until Nesgars here can do that.
03:23Good uppercut.
03:24At the end of the first round from Nikita Zahn he's been very effective in the first three minutes.
03:48Good positive start there from Zahn to the centre of the ring.
03:52Nice and relaxed working behind that lovely southpaw jab.
03:55I'm just seeing here some of the natural ability he has to just change the angle of the shot through
04:00the middle.
04:01A left hand around the guard.
04:03The looping shot that he was throwing was really effective against.
04:06A quite subdued Garcia I thought.
04:08He could have maybe done a little bit more but sometimes when you step up a level you find yourself
04:13a little bit wanting.
04:15Hard to control the pace to understand the rhythm of your opponent's work.
04:19I think Garcia is going to be a little bit more proactive I think when he's going to make it
04:2210 years on.
04:24He did number the few jabs at the end of that round.
04:26He did try to fire back against the ropes but that unfortunately got him into a little bit of trouble
04:30there.
04:30That's what he's on landed with that lovely uppercut to finish what was a solid first round there for the
04:35home fighter.
04:36Yep.
04:37Take a WBA goal super middleweight belt on the line.
04:41Whatever that means.
04:42Well it's something it's a step in the right direction isn't it.
04:46He's the WBA champion Jaime Mongua of course and these two southpaws certainly will be in the mix.
04:59One of them will go out with the title and at the moment Nikita Zong making a very very positive
05:07start in front of his home nation.
05:09And Noel Garcia in those black trunks.
05:12Fellow southpaw but he's very much sort of cowered up hasn't he.
05:16His defence, his gloves high.
05:18He's just waiting patiently.
05:20Obviously those are the tactics.
05:22Yep.
05:23You say tactics.
05:24I don't know but are there any tactics?
05:26I'm not quite sure.
05:27I just think he's struggling with everything here.
05:30Lack of confidence.
05:31That's all I'm looking for.
05:32Thumbs on.
05:34Beautiful right hand.
05:34He's lost three times before Garcia but surely he's better than this.
05:39And he's looking for that one big shot just to trouble Zong.
05:44He knows that Zong has been hurt and wobbled before.
05:48Shaken.
05:48He's been dropped.
05:51But then Garcia has as well.
05:53So sometimes you get that two big punches with chins that don't quite match the power.
05:59Which makes them very very exciting to watch.
06:02But he can obviously punch.
06:03So make the power prevalent.
06:06Make it work for you.
06:07Oh that was low.
06:08And he's being ticked off by Salvador Salva.
06:12Keep them up there.
06:13That was very low.
06:15But if you have power let your hands go.
06:17What's the point of having power to just keep it in your pocket?
06:19You've got to implement your power on Zong.
06:22Make him feel something.
06:23Make him think before he throws.
06:25At the minute you're walking forward with your hands up.
06:27Or standing still with your hands up.
06:28And allowing Zong to target the hit.
06:30Freely.
06:31And with no real danger of anything coming back.
06:35So Zong's been controlling everything.
06:38With minimum effort I would say.
06:39He's doing what he wants in there at the moment.
06:42But he hasn't got his first gear here at the minute.
06:44Not at all.
06:45Doesn't need to.
06:45Rank number 13 by the WBA.
06:48Five straight stoppage wins.
06:51And he's just easing into this.
06:53Beginning to plant his feet a bit more.
06:55With these uppercuts.
06:56The right hands.
06:57And offering very little.
06:59Now all Garcia's been disappointing.
07:01So far.
07:02He needs to wake up here.
07:06Even the hands up.
07:07He's punching through the guard there.
07:08It's on.
07:09Again he's not.
07:10And he's not putting a lot on his punches.
07:11He's punching.
07:13Turning into the shots.
07:14He's not really digging into the shots.
07:16Peekaboo.
07:16Whatever he's trying here.
07:19Noel Garcia.
07:20He's in danger of being just swarmed.
07:22There's damage to the nose.
07:24Already.
07:25He's marked up.
07:26Might be a cut on the bridge of the nose there.
07:28Possibly for.
07:28For Garcia.
07:30Yeah it's been a terrible start for the Argentinian.
07:33Two down.
07:38I think this is.
07:40Sometimes evident.
07:41That's when sometimes you step up a level.
07:43Or maybe a couple of levels.
07:44You're not quite sure what your level is at times.
07:45Depending where you're boxing from.
07:47And you can just find yourself wanting.
07:49You can't understand the pace.
07:50The rhythm.
07:50The speed of the shots.
07:52And sometimes the fighters just naturally more intelligent than you.
07:54And.
07:54I think except for the few shots like that.
07:56Where he's winging the shots over the top here.
07:59Garcia.
08:00That's been quite obvious.
08:01That's on.
08:01It's just a few steps ahead of him.
08:09Yeah.
08:10They're trying just to.
08:11Rattle him in the corner.
08:12And.
08:13Get him focused.
08:15Somehow get the.
08:16The body working.
08:17Because.
08:19He looks a bit of a sitting duck.
08:21At the minute.
08:22Jamal Titov.
08:23The promoter of this guy.
08:24Nikita Zon.
08:26Very confident about his.
08:27Future progress.
08:28He's 32 now.
08:30First fight in 2026.
08:32Coming off a winner.
08:33But Oleg.
08:33Missouri.
08:34Last September.
08:36And he.
08:36Looks like he hasn't been away that long.
08:38He's eased into this one.
08:41He looks nice and relaxed.
08:43He is on.
08:44Controlling everything.
08:45And we go.
08:45The opponent seems to be.
08:46Made for him.
08:47But on paper.
08:48And.
08:48Size wise.
08:49He wasn't.
08:50The winner of his boxer legs on.
08:52The last.
08:52He was a guy.
08:52Really long.
08:53He was tall.
08:54Guy.
08:54With a bit of power.
08:56That sounds like a nightmare.
08:57On paper for you.
08:58It turns out to be an easy night for him.
09:00So far.
09:00Just gotta keep that concentration.
09:02Cause.
09:03You never know.
09:04Garcia might win a shot at the top.
09:05And he might hit the tag.
09:06And things unravel.
09:07So.
09:08As long as he keeps his focus here.
09:09Is on.
09:10And maybe a little more intensity.
09:11In some of his work.
09:12He might get.
09:13For him.
09:14Some rewards here.
09:15As the rounds go by.
09:16Just trying to hold on there.
09:18Garcia.
09:18He was shaking his head.
09:20Saying none of these are really hurting him.
09:22And getting through.
09:23But.
09:23He has to deliver some ammunition.
09:26Because he's in danger of being overwhelmed here.
09:29He's only lost one of his last four.
09:32Now Garcia.
09:34Stop.
09:35Stop.
09:35Stop.
09:36Got a draw.
09:37Against Eric Milo.
09:38Who was unbeaten.
09:39Just before Christmas.
09:42But he's um.
09:43He's half decent.
09:44He can certainly punch.
09:45Albeit at a lower level.
09:48Oh.
09:48Body shot there.
09:49That was good from Zon.
09:50And he fell back.
09:52Garcia.
09:52But again though.
09:53Garcia.
09:55He sort of.
09:56He thinks he's doing the right thing about crutch.
09:57Making his body smaller.
09:58But his.
09:58His hands are high.
09:59His elbows are sticking out.
10:00So there is a target to be hit there.
10:02On the midriff.
10:03Now the right hand.
10:04Just shot through.
10:06The defence.
10:07And he's starting to pierce him.
10:08Now.
10:09Zon.
10:09Open him up.
10:13There's a right hand.
10:14Finally.
10:14From Garcia.
10:15He needs.
10:16Much more of that.
10:18Zon.
10:19He's got to keep his hands.
10:19A little bit higher now.
10:21And just block and counter everything.
10:22Getting inside.
10:23In that mid range.
10:25Area.
10:26Where.
10:26Where.
10:27Pretty much.
10:27You've got to get Garcia.
10:28To short his punches.
10:29I'm not sure he's able to do that.
10:30I think he's hunting that.
10:32Single.
10:33Left hand.
10:34Garcia.
10:34He tried it there.
10:36I think he just feels.
10:37He's got the power to detonate.
10:40When.
10:41Zon makes a mistake.
10:42He's got his hands low.
10:43Zon.
10:43Because he's so relaxed.
10:45And fluid.
10:45And.
10:45Maybe he's just hoping.
10:47Garcia.
10:47Trying to draw it out.
10:48Yeah.
10:49He wants it.
10:49He wants it.
10:50He's pushing his punches.
10:52Garcia.
10:53Not really throwing it.
10:54With any sort of.
10:55Fluency.
10:57That makes it easier.
10:57To read.
10:58You see the movement.
10:59The hands go.
11:00For good work.
11:01From.
11:02Nikita Zon.
11:03Again.
11:04And the.
11:04Face becoming a bit of a bloody mask.
11:07Already.
11:07For.
11:08Nowel Garcia.
11:09We're not even through.
11:10Three rounds.
11:11Is scheduled for ten.
11:12Remember.
11:13He's offered very.
11:14Very little.
11:15The Argentinian.
11:16Up to this moment.
11:18But.
11:18We know.
11:19That he possesses power.
11:21That can.
11:22Change things.
11:23In an instance.
11:25I just think.
11:26Zon.
11:26He's doing everything.
11:27Right.
11:28Just have to put his punches together.
11:29Now.
11:29I think.
11:30And just sustain an attack.
11:31For a little bit longer.
11:34But.
11:34How often.
11:35Barry.
11:35Have we seen a one-sided fight.
11:37Where.
11:38The.
11:38The confident.
11:40As in.
11:40In this case.
11:41Zon.
11:42Athlete.
11:43Just.
11:43Cracks through the motions.
11:44And then.
11:45Maybe.
11:45Gets a.
11:46Little tired.
11:47A little.
11:48Lackadaisical.
11:49And.
11:49Boom.
11:50You can walk into something.
11:51And.
11:52Potentially.
11:52That's what Garcia's trying to do here.
11:54Well.
11:54I always say.
11:55Coasting.
11:56Is.
11:56One of the most dangerous things.
11:57You can do.
11:58Because you.
11:58You get comfortable with what you're doing.
12:00You're enjoying yourself.
12:01And then.
12:02You know.
12:03While you're coasting.
12:04The other guy's getting a bit more confidence.
12:05Because you haven't put the foot on the pedal.
12:07If you're able to.
12:08Some fighters.
12:08Like myself.
12:09Weren't able to do that.
12:10So you have to just.
12:11You know.
12:11Box the way you box.
12:12But some of the fighters.
12:13And Zon has that.
12:14Has a bit of power.
12:15He can put a bit more pressure on.
12:17On Garcia.
12:17And I think.
12:18He's at that point now.
12:19He's boxed really well.
12:20And sensible.
12:20And relaxed.
12:22Got.
12:22Nope.
12:22I haven't really.
12:24Got out of second gear.
12:25But now I think he can start putting his foot on the pedal.
12:27Just a little bit.
12:28And put a little bit more sustained pressure here.
12:30On Garcia.
12:31And see how Garcia reacts.
12:32And if he acts in the right manner.
12:34You take your foot up the gas in this.
12:35That go back around boxing him again.
12:37Most of Gonzalo Garcia's knockouts have come within the first couple of rounds.
12:41Eleven of them.
12:43So as the fights tend to go longer.
12:45But maybe the power diminishes slightly.
12:47But he.
12:48Hasn't want anything here.
12:51But he.
12:52He came out with not.
12:52With no ambition.
12:54That's what he looked like.
12:55Just be honest.
13:04Stop.
13:06Stop.
13:06Stop.
13:06Okay.
13:07Box.
13:09Go.
13:10Go.
13:10Go.
13:12Go.
13:13Go.
13:15hedgehog.
13:15In-gain.
13:16When he's up close and in there.
13:18How can he?
13:19Let the fist fly.
13:21I like the MJB on up close.
13:23I think.
13:23You know.
13:23His best work in range.
13:25But close but pushing Garcia back.
13:27As good as run shot.
13:29Get low with that one though.
13:31He herbs on.
13:31But.
13:31You out here to try to push him back.
13:33And stay close.
13:35And showing.
13:35Just intimidating video.
13:37That's going.
13:37Yep.
13:37Starting to find.
13:39Those areas.
13:40That target.
13:43And.
13:43Don't give him any breathing space.
13:44Up out to that panic with your presence always being in front of
13:54What do you think you're having a little higher when you're doing it though, that's all
13:59in and out of range
14:01Rattling away at the body now
14:04just beginning to
14:06Throw heavier looking shots here Nikita's on he's got nine knockouts in the 11 victories. He's on a great run
14:14I
14:14Think he believes he has got the measure already of Noel Garcia as he's seen everything
14:23He doesn't you slide it forward after the punches
14:25I don't think gassy even hurt it because gassy needs to get on the end of those long shots
14:30And I don't think gassy can short them enough and
14:33It's not the timing to do that to really puts on under any pressure
14:36So it's on it's only punches slides forward
14:38I think he's going to be in a safe place always which gives him the ability to
14:41Let his hands go with real no jeopardy attacks
14:45Keep trying to hold that
14:47left hand
14:49Now all Garcia but
14:52Hasn't made any real damage
14:55Apart from the slight just Nick on the right eye
14:58The song but everything going pretty smoothly for the Russian at the moment
15:08Just playing with it really isn't it
15:13Can you feel if he ups the tempo and really plants those feet and lets the hands
15:19Go he could get Garcia out of that
15:24But every shot's a single shot with Zon
15:26I mean there's a good punch but everything single even when he throws him in threes
15:30There's three single shots not a combination
15:33Where we look to
15:35Noel Acania Garcia as he goes back to the blue corner
15:39He has been under the cosh
15:42From the opening bow
15:47Yeah it's been a nice easy night to work so far here for
15:50For Zon
15:52Just if he can up the tempo he might be able to get that stoppage
15:55And he hasn't really hurt Garcia yet
15:58He's hit him enough and
16:00He's got to start emptying the tank there of Garcia
16:02He's not had no success of any note
16:06In any of the runs that's the truth of it
16:09They need a rallying cry in that corner
16:11They need a big rallying cry
16:13Natural middleweight has come up to 12 stone maybe
16:17The effect of the punch is that
16:21Bit heavier
16:25Very much the away fighter nikita zon the prospect hoping to climb the wba rankings
16:34And he takes the knock down in the fifth
16:37Just sort of
16:42I think maybe that natural weight advantage as well as the skills from nikita zon is making this look incredibly
16:50one-sided
16:51That was low but it's almost like a sparring session in there
16:59That's a little punching out with the feet
17:02You know what impetus when you come forward and you know what impetus in your shots
17:05Oh, he's down again. I think he was out here
17:08Noel Garcia it's been incredibly disappointing as an effort
17:14He's just stepping on a level he just doesn't know what's going on the time is different
17:18You know
17:19Good right hand and a body shot and he bravely tries to carry on there's the courage
17:26From noel garcia suddenly comes to life maybe it's a a lost rallying cry that's the
17:33Language he called for in the corner but a body shot floored him again down for the third time and
17:39Finished nikita zon with his tenth stoppage win
17:43And it means the world to him on the big stage
17:47On a night
17:48Chopped by dimitri bivel hero of course to so many of these russian fighters
17:55And nikita zon got it right every step of the way
17:58Can only be what's in front of you now?
18:01Noel garcia was supposed to be more of a threat particularly with a 16
18:06Knockout in his 18 victories, but he never looked dangerous in there tonight from beginning to end
18:12It was all zon barry. Yeah, it was those are was always the favorite to win
18:16That's the truth
18:16Yeah, but he wanted needed a good performance against the garcia who I said on paper
18:20No puncher who's long and tall is always a nightmare for a boxer which zon is
18:26But it didn't turn out to be that way
18:27And i'm not sure whether zon just really took control of the fight very early on or whether garcia just
18:32wasn't up to it
18:33And I think it was a little combination of both
18:35But all zon can do his fight was it was in front of him do what he's good at and
18:39he did
18:40He systematically beat him up didn't really get out of first or second gear everything's nice and relaxing picking his
18:45punches really well
18:46You know dominating the space pushing garcia back
18:49And then he started to be a little more physical in the round before this and then the body shots
18:53then just
18:54Didn't look like it was a lot on them, but they were well placed
18:58Good technique which zon clearly has we've seen that in the past and a good easy night to work for
19:02him
19:02So he'll be really really happy with that though
19:05Also a global platform so we start to show people what he can do and I think all these these
19:09are building fights to get him where he wants to go
19:13And where that's got where that ends up who knows but right now he's showing he has talent
19:16He's shown yet again tonight the talent is still prevalent at a slightly higher level
19:21And he'll go on for this down for bigger tester a weight
19:23But I think he's a good boxer a good move, but we didn't see any flaws right nope
19:28Plenty of talent
19:30Nikita's on and he is now the WBA gold super middleweight
19:35Champion we get confused about intercontinentals goals platinum silvers all those sort of things
19:40But the important thing is it's a step in the right direction up the rankings
19:45And that's what he'll be aiming for a shot some point in the next 12 months you'd have thought at
19:50a wba
19:51A title
19:56They love him don't they
20:01Referee stop the contest one minute 10 seconds round five winner by TKO and dude WBA gold champion
20:11Nikita
20:14ZA
20:17Corner team loving it so to the fighter and why not 32 now Nikita's on so not a huge amount
20:26of time but
20:28Regular fights in 26 and 27 and he could be knocking at the door
20:35But he's undefeated and that was a pretty simple
