00:00 last six round contest keep it clean at all times keep yourselves protected all times touch gloves
00:04 here we go good luck lads
00:04 our first of the night
00:11 and umar khan will be looking to make an impressive start
00:18 one question mark against khan so far richie in his six fights to date is just how much
00:40 punching power he's got and trana well he's never been stopped and it's going to be a test if you can
00:45 get this fella out of there then that's going to look good on khan's record that'll be the test
00:49 tonight not to get the victory obviously the victory but it's it's how he does it if he can
00:53 stop trana then that would be a very good result because he's in against a teak tough opponent has
00:59 never been stopped he's got good skills khan i'd like what i've seen in in the past from him but
01:04 yes his punching power is probably a little bit suspect but that will come gotta sit down on his
01:09 shots maybe a little bit more but to get a stoppage here that would be a good result good tickets
01:14 have a calm from ilford and already has landed a couple of good right hands in this opening round
01:19 there's a quality uppercut inside and you saw their really solid right cross switch hitting now
01:26 fighting out of the southport stance he's just got to watch out for that i mean that was a nice bit
01:32 of skill but when he does switch occasionally khan will come square and that's when trana may
01:37 be able to catch him with the shot because he tends to hold his feet does khan once he's landed
01:42 his shot so he's got to watch that when he switches but he's got plenty of skills this lad
01:46 coached by bernardo checker umar khan fans of boxing in that part of the world and from
01:56 belfast will know all about checker fought out of the barney eastwood
02:01 stable back in the day regular sparring partner for none other than barry mcguigan
02:10 there's certainly some experience in that corner john he can't boxing well at this stage picking
02:17 his opponent off well so it's like to see moves feet and not hold them when he's landed his shots
02:22 it's been quite a lively opening round
02:26 tron and his seventh fight of the year and he showed his toughness by pushing chris bork
02:37 pretty close back in may won a couple of rounds of that particular six rounder
02:42 that's good switching from body to head from khan
02:46 yeah this is going to be quite an entertaining contest i think john because like i said before
02:52 khan landing some good shots but then stands and trades and lets his opponent come back at him
02:58 which would be quite entertaining he's got to start hitting and probably moving a little bit
03:03 but he's probably just feeling these opponents out in this opening round but they've caught
03:07 each other with big shots that was a good right hand from khan well i think he's taking this
03:12 opening round and that's emphasized by another quality uppercut inside that time from the left
03:18 hand closing seconds of the opening round and an opening round which will have gone to the man
03:23 from ilford umar khan strata sticking his tongue out as he goes back to the corner
03:35 welcome back to your call uh opening fights of the night umar khan here from ilford up against
03:41 kevin trana a spanish spain-based nicaraguan competitive opening round but can't do enough
03:48 richie yes he won the round for me enough to win it but little signs from trana that you know he's
03:55 capable isn't he especially when khan holds the feet and stands and trades then that brings trana
04:00 into it so yeah quite entertaining first round but khan for me got it
04:07 good crowd here tonight always a cracking atmosphere in the your call and i gather
04:15 that every single ticket was sold well in advance tonight a lot of interest in this bill
04:23 great to see isn't it your call such an iconic venue
04:27 khan again they're just catching trona with a couple of good shots on the ropes
04:33 yet to score a stoppage victory khan tonight in his seventh paid outing
04:47 so
04:56 sweet right hand that time from khan yeah trona just just walking forward with that half cover
05:11 guard where you get his lead and he's just across his waist and he's trying to protect his chin
05:15 behind his front shoulder but he certainly got caught there with that right hand from khan that
05:20 was a good shot he's been training out in malaga umar khan his family have got an apartment out
05:29 there and he's got a gym which he uses and flies bernardo checker out there to be with him
05:42 decent left hand there from trona
05:44 and he certainly has that look of real toughness doesn't he resilience he can clearly take a shot
05:52 yeah he's a tough guy hard man and uh prefers his opponents to stand in front of him and
05:56 khan's here at the moment and like we've said it really brings trona into the contest if you hold
06:02 your feet against him you've got a hit move coming at different angles but don't stand in the same
06:07 spot for too long because this guy liked that look left up to the body these are good shots from
06:11 trona yep and khan as you see having some success with a variety of shots but it's a fairly static
06:20 target good body shot solid right hand from trona
06:30 so
06:39 inside the last 10 seconds of the second round
06:47 chan has been right in this one richie yeah he has indeed this is a lot closer this one
06:59 two rounds complete in our opening fight of the night a featherweight contest and kevin tron
07:04 and then this is umar khan but rana had a much better second round than he did the first did
07:10 he do enough to etch it you may have done i've got it in even round um john calm one up store for me
07:18 that second round even certainly a competitive fight it's a six rounder and we move now into the
07:26 third trona not the sort of journeyman is just here to make up numbers he's giving khan plenty
07:40 to think about and he's not being moved easily no he's not that was better from khan there
07:47 nice combination from him but again he tends to undo the good work when he holds the feet and he
07:55 actually switches from orthodox to southport does it too close for me and that's when he can
08:01 he can be a little bit open on the inside can't call the feet will come square he seems to change
08:08 stance as he's walking forward and that means your feet gonna come square at some point and yeah
08:14 i'll string in trying to enter it combination wise calm yeah a couple of good combinations
08:20 in this room as you were told earlier on umar khan a cousin of the commonwealth middleweight
08:25 champion champion hamza shiras shiras a really talented emerging prospect who
08:31 well to look at the two of them shiras looks to have the guet the better quality of punch
08:37 plenty of work here from khan but he's not really making too much of a
08:43 too much of a mark on trana to date
08:47 trana on the front foot trying to narrow the gap and a solid right hand khan doesn't want to be
08:58 walking into those yeah good shot there from trana and then switches that attack downstairs
09:03 so good work from him
09:12 again i'd like to see khan hit and move little side steps different angles
09:17 make this fella miss and catch him with counters
09:20 holding the feet becomes a 50 50 affair
09:31 really warm in here this evening and i suspect it's going to get hotter
09:39 as the evening unfolds
09:50 baluta certainly matching the work rate of khan
09:59 trona rather blue to in action later on
10:02 gonna be a good fight that
10:08 well close round again richie
10:16 he's a tough kid
10:29 i got the man
10:30 yes because you're staying there too long i'm gonna have him every time i move he comes
10:38 home well well you should go you should go right over
10:42 good work here from khan that was lovely the combination there on the ropes and then just
10:50 that's him off but gets caught with a good right hand there from trona who's coming forward got
10:55 him in that corner then he switches the attack downstairs so this was better work from trona and
11:00 from from that point onwards i think trona did well also
11:06 i'll play stages of the fights and nothing in it's on richie's card
11:21 so
11:28 did i win the round he's asked that two or three times now so he must feel that tron is really in
11:43 it well sometimes these things can be kind of a bit subjective but just physically
11:53 trona looks at least as much in terms of sheer body strength
12:02 so
12:11 clearly hitting the target then he's moving away it's good boxing
12:27 referee shawn mcavoy just trying to keep both guys keeping their work tidy it's better for him calm
12:32 well i liked about that also from khan he was boxing on the inside there whipping those shots
12:42 over but then he's not holding the feet for too long hit the target then he's moved i thought
12:46 boxing's about good to go get hit and he clearly showed that there scored well and then got away
12:55 plenty of support here tonight umar khan which you can probably hear
13:00 again better from khan see how he's made it a lot easier for himself now john is hitting he's moving
13:19 he's scoring well not really getting involved which is it's been a better round for khan he's
13:24 made it much easier for himself in this round they needed one didn't they trona the older guy by
13:30 seven years but he'd come on strong in the third and khan needed just to have an imposing round
13:37 just to maybe stem the tide which was just starting to turn against him
13:52 um
14:00 would much prefer khan like he did in the earlier rounds to stand in trade
14:14 then he's brought into it khan's box a clever round here and clearly winning and two or three
14:20 times in the last 30 seconds scoring well with the left hand thrown out of the southpaw stance
14:25 and that would be a clear round to khan
14:27 look who's watching on at ringside
14:40 very relaxed danis mccann in action later on
14:49 biggest test of his career by a long way tonight yeah absolutely he's got a box of clever contest
14:54 tonight he's ready for it
15:14 so two rounds to go umar khan ahead on richie's card but not by a lot
15:21 khan the taller figure
15:25 making a bright start and little protests from trona to referee shawn mccavoy suggesting that
15:39 a couple of those shots may have gone south of the border landed low referee didn't want to know
15:44 again better work from khan the movement's good frustration is starting to creep into trona now
15:58 and as he comes forward that's when he'll probably make more mistakes khan has got to keep that
16:03 movement going holding the feet now trona will fancy his chances there you see
16:09 it's almost as though khan takes a choice thinks right okay i've taken something out of him i can
16:19 stand with him and trade now but that's when he becomes vulnerable when you see that already he's
16:24 having a little breather and trying to just get up close to him and uh you know take a little bit
16:29 of a rest but that's better work there's a nice little autocon the inside there but this like
16:32 i said now we should be moving the feet there you go right instinctively moves off
16:37 that's what he's got to be doing short bursts on the inside then you move
16:40 chana trying to rough him up inside
16:52 is khan getting the better of the work now up close and again a little protest to the referee
17:00 from trana again sean mccavoy says just get on with it
17:04 nice left hand in close from khan
17:28 interesting that he seems to have had the most success with power shots
17:31 coming out of the southpaw stance with that left hand and on the inside he's been a little
17:37 bit better here khan is accuracy has been good to know as in this round from khan
17:54 there's a sizable reach advantage over trona and i suspect that
17:57 richie watching on would have liked to have seen and make a bit more of that in the early stages
18:03 good exchange there and the best punch of that exchange came with the last one again a left-hander
18:08 landed by khan
18:19 well khan perhaps doing enough to take that one again and on richie's card that puts him
18:24 over the line one round to go yeah he's doing okay now is khan yes
18:34 a lot of blood around there and the need to be applying the grease to that damaged eye
18:42 that's the eye of kevin trana it's been a lot of work on the inside as in the cell
18:48 as it comes from a punch as it comes from a bit of a head clash we think it came here
18:53 from that shot there maybe but like i said the heads have been rubbing in close so
19:01 probably inevitable that one of them was going to get cut at some stage
19:04 hugo testino the coach and corner man well what's he doing there he didn't seem to have made a
19:12 terribly good job of it but now some grease goes on and i have to say i've seen cats being better
19:18 dealt with than that yeah not very good at all there
19:20 thankfully he's only got one more round to get through
19:26 and it's in a bad place john with the blood actually running into the eye so
19:32 but he won't try and protect him he's got to go out all or nothing he probably
19:37 knows he's behind now to get a victory he'll need a stoppage so it's all or nothing now for trana
19:43 oh
19:44 khan's accelerating clear richie's card he's got a two maybe three round advantage at this point
19:58 certainly a two-round advantage and as we come closer to the final bell he'll want to finish
20:06 it impressively but it's looking as though it's going to be another points win
20:11 we said at the start of it we're trying to force a stoppage here would be a good result for khan
20:17 and i'm sure he'll be going for it
20:22 looking for that right hand over the top to try and make that cut a little bit worse than already
20:30 trana he's just rubbing his eye the blood is running into the eye and he's rubbing it away
20:36 and khan walked into a right hander there he doesn't want to get careless in these closing stages
20:42 there's a big shot from khan and he'll see the damage that's inflicted on that eye and he's
20:49 wanting to finish on the front foot and wanted to finish impressively yeah showing good power
20:54 isn't he khan in both hands you know he keeps switching orthodox to save ball he's talented
20:59 and he's got a bit of power in in both shots there catching trana coming forward with the left hand
21:06 and the right hand also there's that right hand again
21:10 chana's regroup well in this round considering he had that injury in the closing stages of round five
21:21 but he needs to have khan on the floor you sense if he's going to turn it around
21:27 and that doesn't look as though it's coming good shot from khan
21:33 good work there from khan word to the body then switched
21:36 to the head right hand over the top so switching the attack it's good stuff from him
21:41 well it's been a good entertaining scrap as our opener of the evening
21:50 and a card which is building towards that big one between dennis mccann and yonat baluta
22:01 both boxers have given their all here tonight trana and khan trana is always in entertaining
22:09 contest but here another one that can't finish in strong keeping tron onto those ropes
22:14 last few seconds and there is the final bell and a sporting hug from the two of them
22:28 trana doing a little victory run around the ring but i can't agree i think that umar khan has taken
22:34 that one yeah and me john i think khan has won this contest that was an entertaining contest wasn't it
22:41 khan there certainly was pushed he said at the start we thought they would win but how he was
22:45 going to win was the big question could he get a stoppage he couldn't but let's give him a lot
22:50 of credit he fought really well here khan switches from orthodox to southpaw really mixing up in that
22:56 last round working for switching the attack from body to head lovely left hand over the top there
23:01 then he comes back with his right hand so yes he's got a bit of talent in both stances as khan
23:06 switches the attack there and there's that right hand to finish that sequence so yeah good performance
23:11 i think overall yeah and i mean i i said at the outset didn't i has he got enough power is he
23:16 going to be able to keep tron off is he going to be able to really impose himself on the contest
23:22 well you have to give credit to the guys who is against and tron is one tough fella extremely tough
23:28 never been stopped has he tron always in entertaining fights so yeah another one right
23:34 here we go the two fighters in a moment will be taken center ring there's just a bit of repair
23:42 work being done to kevin tron as i referee wants them both in the center of the ring
23:49 but tron are in no rush to get there the reason that he wants both in the center of the ring is
23:53 that we do now have the result which has been passed on by referee shawn mcavoy to our marshals
24:01 ceremony defsani and here now are his deliberations ladies and gentlemen after six rounds of boxing
24:13 your referee shawn mcavoy scores the contest 58 56 to your winner umar
24:21 khan trying to shaking his head a little bit disconsolately but that scoreline pleases the
24:32 calm supporters in the crowd and it pretty much goes along with how we saw it umar khan there
24:40 scoring his seventh consecutive victory again.
