00:00 this afternoon this is for the ABF continental heavyweight title set for
00:05 ten rounds Thailand between Thailand and India so in the blue corner we have
00:12 Ashish Bandor who is undefeated as a professional three fights three victories
00:18 on his record facing him across the ring is Ekapop who has six fights on his
00:25 record five victories and only one defeat both these two in the orthodox
00:30 stance good right hand to the body from Ekapop to start the round
00:38 Ashish firing back with a left uppercut right hand down the middle these two
00:46 definitely are packing a lot of power hard left hook there from Ashish
00:53 jab from Ekapop
00:59 both these two just a little bit apprehensive to engage at the moment
01:05 taking their time don't want to make a mistake that this way could be lights
01:10 out early on right hand connects though straight punches good left hook though
01:13 from Ekapop
01:22 again a bit of a stalemate Ekapop ending that stalemate with the good
01:27 flush one two big heavy lever there right hands pushes Ashish back from
01:35 Ekapop these two really are picking their moments to engage and when they do
01:44 they're throwing fireworks throwing bombs at each other Ekapop again with
01:52 the right hand down the middle trying to be stubborn and hold the center ring
01:56 Ashish trying to counter with the right hand one two from Ashish and again
02:00 firing back with a one two right hand comes down the middle from Ekapop
02:04 again jab going down the middle from Ekapop
02:13 another jab from Ekapop Ekapop just taking his time don't forget we are set
02:23 for ten rounds so these two don't want to get in a firefight early on in round
02:28 number one he's sort of just meant to in any fight really just meant to go
02:33 through the gears and not sort of blow your engine big right hand though big right
02:38 hand from Ashish in round number one that drops Ekapop for a count that was
02:45 right on the button and it looks like Ekapop has recovered we're gonna get a
02:49 bit of extra time because Ashish isn't staying in the neutral corner in it
02:53 still the referees count now Ashish going in for the kill we've coming up to
02:57 the 20 second mark one more shot could do it for Ashish left hip there from
03:06 Ashish as well right hand connects for Ashish and again with the overhand right
03:13 this really has lit a fuse for Ashish oh and it looks like the gum shields just
03:24 come out of one of the fighters but this is just on the end of the round
03:35 oh we were a little bit confused who's mouth guard it was and there you go into round one
03:46 bit of drama there
03:50 [Music]
03:57 [Music]
04:00 [Music]
04:27 so big shots being traded back and forth in round one between these two and
04:35 then just as I said you don't want to take too many chances out of nowhere
04:40 Ashish with the knockdown so it was the overhand right that got Ekapop right
04:48 down it was just on his ear knocks him down for an eight count in round one and
04:54 that's not a good start for the Thai fighter but if anything that's gonna spur
04:59 on Ashish see what we're in store for in round number two great right hand there
05:09 to start the round from Ekapop Ashish did a good job in round one of just
05:18 moving in and out with the straight punches with the short combinations
05:22 definitely paid off firing back here with his own right hand
05:29 the stalemate between both fighters but don't blink folks
05:36 right hand delivered down the middle from Ekapop but Ashish firing back with a
05:48 right hand to the head jab as well but it looks like it just hit the guard of
05:53 Ekapop keep holding center the ring pushing Ekapop backwards onto the
05:59 ropes Ekapop with a high guard
06:04 jab again from Ashish
06:15 Ashish really picking his punches don't blame him really it paid off for him in
06:23 round one jab again from Ashish keeping Ekapop at bay
06:29 Ashish showing a lot of maturity early on if this is his fourth professional fight
06:36 not sure how many fights he had as an amateur right hand though that stunned
06:42 Ashish and wobbled him momentarily Ekapop throwing the one-two then going to the
06:48 body with the left hook
06:51 stiff jab down the middle from Ekapop Ashish trying to fire a jab back but
07:00 tight guard from Ekapop check left hook almost hitting the mark for Ashish jab
07:06 down the middle did though overhand right there from Ashish another overhand right
07:17 jab down the middle from Ashish too
07:31 yeah both these two are not in a hurry at all it is round two we are set for ten
07:37 left hand down the middle there from Ashish 20 seconds to go in round two
07:44 right hand again hits the mark for Ekapop so we saw that counter shot early
07:49 on as soon as Ashish opened up with the left hook early on it's the second time
07:54 that Ekapop was successful with that counter right hand and end of round two

08:43 [Music]
08:46 okay so as we saw on the replay there great counter fighting from Ekapop
09:04 Ashish having a good start in the early part of the round but later stages it
09:09 was more Ekapop with the counter punches especially the right hand and
09:13 Ekapop picking up where he left off in the second round starting the
09:17 third with a right hand straight to the body
09:21 great right hand there from Ashish not once but three times four times in a row
09:32 and opening up wailing that left hook in Ekapop just taking it and pushing
09:37 forward with the high guard
09:41 Ekapop with a high guard walking forward trying to take as much punishment as he
09:50 can just to deliver that one shot good combination there and that's pushed
09:54 Ashish back look like it slightly knocked the wind out of him Ashish
09:57 moving lastly to his left and to his right trying to fire back with his own
10:01 left hook and left jab double body shot there from Ekapop and that looked like
10:06 that really affected Ashish just tell from the body language another right
10:12 hand to the body as well from Ekapop crowd getting behind him and again Ekapop
10:18 double body shot Ashish trying to fire back with his left hook trying to push
10:23 Ekapop away but just standing like a brick wall in front of Ashish it's
10:27 better from Ashish he needs to use the lateral movement to move around the ring
10:30 clubbing right hand there from Ashish this is the second time his mouth guard
10:34 has fallen out Ashish needs to keep his mouth guard in or he will get a big
10:45 telling off from the referee being very apologetic everyone just sparing
10:54 Ekapop on just to keep going to the body jab down the middle from Ashish
11:01 Ekapop still marching forward good body shot there from Ekapop and finishing
11:08 it with a left hook to the body
11:11 good uppercut there from Ashish well timed uppercut from the Indian fighter
11:29 right hand landing down to the middle there from Ekapop Ashish trying to keep
11:35 Ekapop at bay with a one-two but Ekapop just walking through it uppercut landing
11:40 very well for Ekapop right uppercut there from Ashish sorry from Ekapop
11:50 Ekapop has done a really good job to get his way get himself back in this
11:58 fight just walking forward with a high guard and picking his punches very well
12:03 it's really been the body work from Ekapop in rounds two and this round
12:07 as well round three jab from Ekapop and Ashish just trying to counter him with
12:15 the left hook landing with the right hand though less than ten seconds to go
12:23 and that's the end of round three
12:28 [Music]
12:55 okay let's take a look at the replay here so Ekapop just acting like a brick
13:00 wall and walking through all of the shots that Ashish was throwing at him
13:06 really putting Ashish at bay and pushing him back with the body shots that he
13:12 delivered it was really just the right hand to the body right down the middle
13:17 and then the left hook as well that combination well paid off big time for
13:22 him so we are going into round number four we are set for ten rounds for this
13:32 title fight let's see if we get that far
13:36 there we go here we go again Ekapop starting the round twice in a row with
13:43 the right hands of the body and again with the right hands of the body from
13:49 Ekapop a right hand again connects for Ekapop
13:56 Ekapop going up high with the right hand Ashish needs to use his lateral
14:05 movement more to just dance around Ekapop and just pick him off at range
14:09 with his straight punches his right hand there from Ashish Ekapop though wisely
14:18 moving to his right getting off the ropes jabs the body from Ekapop
14:25 right hand down the middle from Ashish
14:32 Ekapop just bobbing and weaving trying to find the angle for another attack
14:46 great two punch combination there from Ashish and again from the Indian fighter
14:53 so looks like the tables have turned slightly in momentum in this round
14:56 Ashish doing a little bit better in this round compared to Ekapop just being a
15:00 bit more accurate with his shots for me or mine if it's a scorecard it's drawn at the
15:07 moment but if Ashish can win this round then he'll be ahead
15:13 Ashish winning the first round clearly with the knockdown will be a 10-8 round
15:17 for him and then for me on my own official scorecard Ekapop won round two
15:23 and round three but he's really faded slightly in round four coming back a bit
15:28 now with the counter punches now he's rallying here right hook there from
15:35 Ashish twice in a row left hook fires back as well from Ashish closing the
15:41 distance well Ashish with these right hands down the middle overhand right
15:45 again Ekapop landing the right hand as Ashish close the distance right hand
15:54 down the middle from Ekapop pushes Ashish back into his own corner overhand
15:59 right from Ekapop and big right hand from Ekapop right hand from Ashish
16:08 Ekapop with an uppercut and right hand both these two leaving it all in here
16:16 going each other with hammer and tongs both fighters land the right hand at the
16:22 same time Ashish coming back with a one-two less than ten seconds to go
16:28 bit of a stalemate between both fighters and that is going to be the end of round
16:35 four
16:37 [Music]
16:40 [Music]
17:08 okay just looking at the replays here so great round really early on from Ashish
17:15 it was very accurate then at the last minute Ekapop just sprung to life and
17:19 started to find a groove with his counter punches specifically with the
17:23 right hand and see Ashish walks right into that one and then attacking the
17:28 body too
17:35 okay here we go moving into round five so this is the halfway point in this
17:41 championship matchup so the ABF heavyweight title is on the line right
17:52 hand again down the middle from Ekapop really is his signature move to start
17:57 the round and now he's on the march pushing forward being stubborn and
18:03 holding center of the ring as she's staying poised getting in and out of the
18:07 pocket with his jab right hand lands from Ashish and advancing forward uppercut
18:12 from Ashish as well
18:15 these two just weigh in slightly taking their time taking their time
18:32 sorry Ekapop with the right hand to the body so impressed with how
18:40 Ekapop has been able to close the distance with his body shots from
18:43 range like I said in a previous bout it's very dangerous to just attack your
18:48 opponent with a body shot straight away because it's so easy to step off and
18:51 counter them Ekapop's done a great job closing the distance and landing these body
18:55 shots great overhand right there from Ashish accurate one and he's going again
19:00 good one two from Ashish as well
19:04 right hand there hits the mark for Ekapop one two from Ashish
19:26 what great right hand again from Ekapop Ashish trying to push it back
19:34 landing his own right hand and firing back with Ekapop with these right hands
19:41 Ashish again right hands being delivered down the middle overhand right there from
19:50 Ekapop what's so impressive is Ashish weighed in yesterday at 92 kilograms
19:58 Ekapop at 106 obviously this is a heavyweight matchup big body shots there
20:05 from Ekapop right hand there from Ashish lunging in missing with the right hand
20:10 again
20:17 Ashish hitting nothing but air but hitting Ekapop there with the overhand
20:22 right don't forget it was the overhand right that knocks Ekapop down in round
20:25 one can Ashish do it again it looks like Ashish is completely spent in the
20:32 moment hands are down and Ekapop really needs to spring on him and go in for the
20:37 kill yeah it looks like Ashish is completely spent and that is the end of
20:45 round five
21:13 okay so let's take a look at the replay so Ashish with the straight punches and
21:18 then when they were inside the pocket having a firefight that were both
21:22 delivering hard right hands and haymakers to each other I think you've
21:27 got to give Ashish a lot of credit really because he is well yesterday he
21:33 was at least 14 kilograms lighter than Ekapop and he knocks him down with a
21:39 precise overhand right in the first round and he's still battling with him
21:43 deep into the championship rounds now so we're going into round six
21:49 okay here we go so again Ekapop starting with the right hand to the body
22:05 they go big body shots there and Ekapop still on the hunt with the right
22:15 hands this time jabbing to deliver down the middle from Ekapop
22:20 both these two missing with their own counter punches
22:30 a bit of a stalemate between both fighters I think the extra weight has
22:42 just really got to Ashish who saw it at the end of round five how he was just
22:46 starting to tire firing back now with his own straight punches right hand down
22:56 the middle there from Ekapop right hand being fired back from Ashish jab down
23:01 the middle from Ashish
23:03 taking their time these two trying to find the right it's really been the
23:18 battle of the straight punches between both fighters that's been the
23:22 cornerstone of both of their offenses both of their game plans
23:27 swinging a miss from both fighters so but as much as I said Ashish is tired
23:41 it looks like Ekapop is a bit as well no surprise they've both really left it
23:46 all in there so far it's been a great matchup between these two Ekapop with
23:51 a left hook Ashish missing with his own counter left hook right hand down the
23:58 middle from Ashish final minute coming up in round number six
24:04 jab down the middle from Ashish right hand down the middle from him as well and again
24:20 Ekapop big body rip from him too. Ekapop with the rips of the body again and
24:33 Ashish just walking away trying to stay out of trouble
24:38 big right hook to the body there from Ekapop and again from Ekapop going down
24:50 the middle with the right hand and that's going to be it for round number six

25:20 [Music]
25:26 [Music]
25:32 [Music]
25:38 [Music]
25:46 so just catching the replays there both fighters looks like they're starting to run out of steam
25:54 no surprise really they've both really left it in there and are battling so hard
26:00 to become the new ABF heavyweight champion
26:11 jab down the middle from Ekapop who hasn't we haven't seen that there we go
26:15 there is body shot to start the round but not a good sign for Ashish he's looking
26:21 over his corner for a bit of advice Ashish just needs to pick his punches we
26:29 know he can knock down Ekapop he just needs to find the right time there's
26:33 that right hand again from Ashish stopping Ekapop in his tracks pushing him
26:39 backwards referee just shouting at Ekapop to keep his head up we don't want to
26:44 clutch our heads this has been such a good matchup between these two warriors
26:50 right hand connecting for both fighters
27:07 [Music]
27:10 good one two down the middle from Ashish jab again from Ashish championship
27:26 rounds here this could come down to the wire between both fighters it depends
27:30 what our judges of ringside have seen or what they favor at least right hand
27:37 connects there for Ekapop one two down the middle from Ashish jab down the
27:49 middle from Ekapop
27:55 right hand there from Ashish
28:00 good clubbing right hand there from Ekapop that hit the mark surprising
28:13 Ashish is still on his feet stiff jab from Ashish fired back as well
28:20 [Music]
28:23 less than 30 seconds to go Ashish throwing some heavy lever down the
28:43 middle with a three punch combination
28:47 [Music]
28:50 one two down the middle from Ashish a right hand connects as well from Ashish
29:02 and round number seven
29:07 [Music]
29:10 [Music]
29:37 okay take a look at the replays here so both these two just leaving it all in
29:45 there for me in that round Ekapop was fading a bit and Ashish just kept on
29:50 landing these accurate straight punches right through the guards
29:56 [Music]
30:00 and here we go heading into round number eight potentially two more rounds to go
30:12 after this Ekapop starting off with a jab down the middle I have a funny
30:24 feeling that this is razor close between these two Ashish right hand that hits
30:32 the mark very accurately
30:35 big left hook there from Ashish
30:49 [Music]
30:52 but these two just taking their time but being a bit apprehensive to engage one
31:05 two down the middle from Ekapop Ashish coming back over this own one two
31:10 Ekapop with the left hook Ekapop still pushing forward though and Ashish
31:23 wisely moving Lassery to his left
31:27 up and up there from Ekapop right hand down the middle from Ashish
31:37 jab down the middle from Ashish
31:45 crushing right hand to the body there from Ekapop and Ekapop still pushing
31:55 forward trying to throw the uppercut through the guards
32:05 stalling here both fighters referee just telling them off to keep their heads up
32:12 in the clinch here we go inside the pocket but Ashish moving away from it
32:19 landing a straight punches down the middle trying to be a sniper trying to
32:23 land one shot get in get out
32:30 jab down the middle from Ashish and teeing off very well Ashish with the
32:38 straight punches down the middle trying to keep Ekapop at bay with a quick push
32:44 with a long guard and almost inside the clinch right hand there connects for
32:49 Ashish jab down the middle from Ekapop
32:53 [Music]
32:57 jab down the middle from Ashish and a right hand as well that's the end of
33:16 round 8 [Music]
33:24 [Music]
33:27 [Music]
33:30 [Music]
33:35 [Music]
33:39 [Music]
33:44 okay so a great round for Ashish who was very accurate as he came in and out of
33:55 the pocket with his straight punches the straight punches are pretty much been
34:02 the supreme key recipe for Ashish he's just served them up so well throughout
34:09 the rounds coming to round number nine now Ekapop's just been slinging
34:15 these hard body shots to Ashish for me I thought Ashish was gonna crumble and
34:23 lose his power and just stall a lot because of them but he hasn't Ekapop
34:29 trying to land the right uppercut now landing the right hand to the body but
34:34 Ashish just coming back with vicious intentions with the straight punches
34:39 being fired down the middle looks like he landed at least eight straight
34:43 punches in a row there's that hook to the body though and Ashish took a few
34:50 steps back right hand down the middle crowd really getting behind Ekapop and
34:55 the guard going down of Ashish. Ekapop needs to keep landing those straight
35:03 shots to the body because Ashish just keeps on wilting from them
35:09 Chad down the middle from Ashish twice in a row doesn't look like they landed
35:32 a bit of weaving ducking and weaving here from Ekapop. Ekapop still marching
35:42 forward moving latry to his left to cut off Ashish. Ashish with a stiff jab down
35:47 the middle doesn't it like Ashish wants to engage on the inside too much with
35:52 the and get hit by the body shots from Ekapop don't blame him. I could point out
35:59 before Ekapop with a significant 14 kilogram weight advantage at the weigh-ins
36:03 yesterday right hand though hits the mark for Ashish. He's been pinpoint
36:08 accurate with his straight punches in this fight which has paid off for him a
36:12 lot. Very good thundering accurate right book shot to the body from Ekapop
36:24 and Ashish keeping Ekapop at bay with the straight punches getting on his bike
36:29 moving to his left and to his right less than a minute's go in round nine I
36:34 didn't expect it to go this far to be honest. Right hand Ekapop with a slight
36:41 mouth a slight swelling just on his temple. Ashish low guard but got a feeling that
37:00 he's just trying to bait Ekapop in for a one-two like he did just there.
37:06 Okay we're in the dying seconds now of round number nine swinging a miss from
37:11 Ashish twice in a row really lunging in uppercut right uppercut from Ashish jab
37:21 down the middle from Ashish as well and that's it for round nine.

38:03 Okay so let's just take a look at the replays from round number nine so Ashish
