00:00On va walker avec le light heavyweight strap.
00:03Nous sommes dans le domaine, Donovan Vissa et Mohamed Tushazi.
00:07Le veteran en Vissa, l'up-en-comer en Tushashi.
00:12So many storylines going into this.
00:15Vissa moving up to light heavyweight for the first time,
00:18but it's Tushazi leading the dance early.
00:20Yeah, he's going to have to keep this fight in that long range
00:23of hitting and moving, using his aggressive 1-2.
00:27Oh, hand kick rocks Vissa!
00:30Front kick!
00:33Tushazi is coming out like a man-possessed body judge!
00:39Hand kick from Vissa trying to slow down this onslaught.
00:44And Tushashi's trying to go for the finish.
00:47Knees are landing getting through!
00:50That's...
00:50Come on, Ankeny, Ankeny.
00:52One knee can be thrown in the clinch.
00:54He landed a couple.
00:56Yeah, three or four.
00:58Wow.
01:00Yeah, Vissa's going to have to start that technical pressure.
01:03Stay defensive.
01:04Tushazi.
01:05You don't want to give Tushazi space.
01:07Yes.
01:07Looking like he hasn't fought at all tonight.
01:11Oh, no, no, no!
01:12Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
01:18no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:29Here in Rotterdam cheering on Tushazi.
01:33Tushazi goes back to that head kick.
01:37Oh, Vissa with a nice counter left.
01:41The veteran Donovan Vissa.
01:45The veteran Donovan Vissa.
01:46Hanging on here early.
01:48Some knees delivered by Tushazi.
01:58Good kicks landing to the body, and Vissa fires back.
02:07Nice feint there from Vissa.
02:10Got Tushazi to throw.
02:12First meeting between these two light heavyweights.
02:17I do like this start from Tushazi.
02:20We know Donovan Vissa is a fighter that gets better as the fight goes on.
02:24He reads you well.
02:25And Tushazi's got to take advantage of these early exchanges.
02:30And tournament experience.
02:31Who needs it?
02:33Both of these men are fighting in their first ever glory tournament.
02:40And you'll see as the fight goes on, Vissa just starts building momentum.
02:46But Tushazi's going to have to keep finding those moments where he explodes.
02:50Beautiful right from Vissa.
02:52Looks like he might be targeting that cut.
02:57I'm amazed that that thing's not gushing.
03:03What an opening round with the light heavyweight strike.
03:07Grap up for grabs, Joseph.
03:09You got to earn it.
03:11Well, maybe I spoke too soon.
03:13I could see Vissa.
03:15He landed a couple of shots.
03:17Looks like right on that cut.
03:22You see Tushazi really opening up.
03:25Tried that one-two lead uppercut.
03:29And that's the head kick.
03:30Even though the guard was up from Vissa, looked like it rocked him a little bit.
03:34This is when Tushazi's just started getting aggressive.
03:37Yeah, the guard was up from Vissa.
03:41Looked worse than maybe it actually was.
03:44But good job at Tushazi getting aggressive, going for the finish.
03:48That's what you want in a fighter.
03:50100%.
03:50And we take a look at that, Gash, over the eye of Mohamed Tushazi.
03:58He has gone through.
04:00I mean, he got that early on in that first quarterfinal.
04:04He's fought a lot of rounds with that cut.
04:06How tough is he?
04:07And there we get ready for round number two.
04:12Wow.
04:13See if Tushazi comes out with that same aggression as he did in the first.
04:18And it looks like he is.
04:21Open scoring system.
04:24Four judges give it to Tushazi.
04:28Tushazi is so powerful in the beginning of the rounds.
04:35Oh, Vissa caught him coming in.
04:41Stats are pretty even.
04:44And both fighters very accurate with their strikes landing.
04:50Vissa's trying to counter because he knows when Tushazi opens up,
04:54he gets wild with his hands down.
04:57I mean, just one of the most grueling ways to win a belt.
05:04Beating three opponents in the same evening.
05:13Scanning back this firm to Tushazi.
05:17Oh, and now Vissa attacking the body.
05:26Nice body work there from Vissa.
05:30Trying to take that gas tank out of the younger fighter.
05:34He has been ripping some body shots, no doubt about it.
05:44Halfway past the midpoint here in the second round.
05:49This is an important round for Jonathan Vissa.
05:51I mean, you lose this round.
05:53I mean, you're down two to one.
05:56Absolutely.
05:57So if I'm Vissa, I'm trying to really steal this last minute and ten seconds.
06:03He keeps attacking that body.
06:05Trying to wear Tushazi down.
06:10Definitely a better round for Donovan.
06:12For sure.
06:13He has slowed down the attack from Mohamed.
06:16Yeah.
06:16He's defending the attacks.
06:18Having Tushazi fight backwards.
06:33Tushazi!
06:34Break.
06:34Break.
06:35Fight.
06:41Thirty seconds.
06:42Second round.
06:45Good round for the former middleweight champion, Donovan Vissa.
06:49Yeah, he's definitely more comfortable, but every moment that Tushazi decides to open up, it's dangerous.
07:00And the fans here in Rotterdam cheering on the fighter out of Morocco.
07:08Nice circle out of the corner with the right-hand counter.

07:38Moving on to the third round.
07:41Yeah.
07:41My opinion, I would have it one round apiece.
07:44I agree.
07:45I mean, I feel like it really has to come to this third round.
07:49Donovan Vissa just getting a little bit more comfortable.
07:52So that was a nice moment at the end of the fight for Tushazi.
07:58But you see Vissa just more confident coming forward.
08:03But every time, like I keep mentioning it, if Tushazi opens, it's coming with full power, full aggression.
08:15What a grueling night in the glory ring for these two warriors.
08:22Mohamed Tushazi, 24 years old.
08:25Donovan Vissa, 29.
08:29Time's tough.
08:30And time is called quickly for a low blow.
08:37And there's three judges go the way of Donovan Vissa.
08:44Two on the other side for Tushazi.
09:01Oh, no knockdown.
09:11Oh.
09:13And back and forth we go.
09:19Nice rip from Vissa.
09:20To the body kick.
09:22That's backing up Tushazi.
09:28Vissa looking still very fresh.
09:32It's coming up on two minutes to go.
09:34All that extra weight moving up to light heavyweight does not seem to be a factor.
09:39He's doing stuff to them.
09:43Very active fighter in Tushazi, but it's Vissa more accurate.
09:49And the blood again continues to flow from that cut.
09:53Oh.
09:54Solid.
09:54Wow.
09:56Off the ropes.
09:57Tushazi backing up Vissa.
10:02Body shot again from Vissa.
10:06Nice right hand from Vissa there.
10:11The inside leg kick for Mohamed.
10:16Really looking for those knees.
10:20I mean, Vissa's targeting the liver and the ribs.
10:26But Tushazi just keeps moving forward.
10:29Nice one, two.
10:31Oh, head kick.
10:34Vissa bounces off the ropes.
10:37Tushazi just misses with that knee.
10:40Under a minute to go.
10:45An unbelievable night between some of the world's greatest light heavyweights.
10:52Vissa pressing forward.
10:55Nice counter-back combos from Tushazi.
10:58He's moving backwards, but he's fighting well.
11:03Continuing to circle around, and Vissa stalking him.
11:08Good hook from Vissa back and forth.
11:12One big moment from any fighter could really change this fight.
11:16Great point.
11:17One last flurry.
11:19Tushazi leads there, and then Vissa fires back.
11:23Oh, head kick from Vissa.
11:27Under 10 to go.
11:28Oh, big shot from Vissa.
11:31Head kick.
11:32Spinning kick from Tushazi.
11:37And the bell sounds, and the fans here in Run-A-Dem are going wild.
11:43I mean, what?
