SportsTranscript
00:00 So we get started with the first of our bouts here on Fox Sports this evening.
00:19 This made for TV event with four fights in total.
00:23 The main events, Paul Owecuso and Reynolds Quinlan, but right now we're watching the
00:28 talented Isaiah Setchey and the tough Ankush Huda.
00:33 And they meet immediately with Setchey coming forward and he's coming off the best performance
00:39 of his young career so far.
00:41 Ben Damon here in commentary alongside two former world champions in Jeff Fennec and
00:46 Billy Dibb.
00:47 And Jeff, you were very impressed last time out by Setchey.
00:50 Yeah, what an amazing performance it was.
00:52 I mean, he was in a tough fight, but he just got better and better each round.
00:55 He got more confident.
00:56 He's showing that early in the fight today.
00:57 Straight out there, straight out there punching.
01:00 And Huda is someone who will come forward when given the opportunity.
01:03 He wants to meet Setchey.
01:05 Let's see what he can do with a man who proved very elusive and extremely powerful last time
01:12 out as well as Setchey throws some big bombs in the early stages of this six rounder.
01:18 Good start from Setchey.
01:20 If you look at his record prior to this, you'd be a little worried, but after his last fight,
01:24 wow, he's grown in confidence.
01:26 He's throwing some amazing punches, beautiful straight punches and beautiful body shots.
01:30 Setchey's got it all, Ben.
01:31 And a nice left hand there from Huda as well.
01:34 And he reproduces it.
01:35 Two nice straight left hands from Ankush Huda.
01:38 And now Setchey gets on the attack again and is chasing Huda, who just backs off here for
01:44 a moment.
01:45 A good start to this one.
01:46 Our opener and good punches there from Huda again.
01:49 That left hand is working.
01:50 Yeah, that's the one thing about Setchey.
01:52 He doesn't mind taking a punch to give one, Ben.
01:54 Yeah, that's for sure.
01:55 He's taken a half a dozen to give him back.
01:57 He is entertaining at all times.
02:00 And Billy did.
02:01 I know Setchey's a man you've got a big rap on, but Ankush Huda's doing a good job in
02:04 the early stages of this fight.
02:05 Not bad at all.
02:06 He's definitely holding his own right now.
02:07 There's a good shot though, the left hand from Setchey and it did rock Ankush Huda.
02:16 He recovers nicely, but he got that shot around the guard and he looks for it again to Setchey.
02:24 Willing to take some shots there from Huda.
02:27 He looks for a big uppercut as well to Setchey.
02:31 Inside the final minute of this opening round, the first of our fights and they both went
02:36 bang and Huda it was sent back across the ring again.
02:41 A beautiful left hook there, Landon.
02:44 I like the way he keeps switching from orthodox to southpaw, Jeff.
02:47 Yeah, well every time he switches it doesn't bother him.
02:50 He's got a beautiful left hook.
02:51 He's got a beautiful right hook.
02:53 Head punches, body punches, he's got it all, but he gets hit a lot.
02:56 Takes that shot there from Huda who turned around a right hand onto Setchey.
02:59 Nice little move there from Ankush Huda who slipped around one and threw his own shot.
03:06 Setchey does need to look out for the onslaught coming back at him as he tries to throw his
03:12 shots and they both connect again and there's another right hand from Ankush Huda.
03:17 He's got a good offense, but his defense needs a bit of work here.
03:21 He's happy to take those shots.
03:24 Here's Setchey, backs his own power.
03:29 Good fight this, the opener.
03:32 Really strong stuff from Setchey and Huda.
03:35 This one scheduled for six rounds, but as you can see anything can happen with this
03:43 pair.
03:44 Oh, good body shot there from Setchey.
03:46 Right drive to the body it was and Huda just shoves him off and Les Fear, the referee,
03:53 lets them go as Setchey leads now with an uppercut that misses and hook straight shot
03:59 there from Huda who goes again with that left hand.
04:02 As you look at both of them being, Huda looks a bit bigger, his structure's bigger.
04:06 I think he's put on a bit more weight after the weigh-in, so yeah, he looks a bit bigger
04:10 and stronger.
04:11 That's why he's taking those punches I think because Setchey's landed some beautiful shots.
04:16 Pulls up a left hand there to Huda as well.
04:19 And now just hangs on and worth remembering that Huda did miss weight and he will have
04:25 replenished from that point.
04:27 Gets through with that left hand again and a straight right hand from Setchey in the
04:35 orthodox position as Huda comes back and Setchey counters and he leads with that right hand.
04:40 He's got a very nice array of punches this Setchey.
04:44 He just shows another of them, that left hook that he led with.
04:50 And Huda going for some volume here in the second round.
04:55 Well that's what Huda has to do, Huda has to hurt this kid because if he doesn't hurt
04:58 him he's going to continue doing what he's doing and punching bunches.
05:03 They need to start with a jab, establish that jab and work their way in.
05:06 They're just rushing in and taking shots.
05:09 These guys don't know what a jab is Bill, this is a fight.
05:12 Yeah both of them are looking for power shots to lead with and there it was Setchey with
05:17 that power right hand and Huda tries to set up his left hand.
05:22 Setchey moves his head and that's what he did really well against Campbell Somerville.
05:26 Managed to move his head and stay away from the shots of Somerville.
05:30 But also when he moves that head he comes back with some beautiful punches.
05:33 That right hook, the left hook, when it was a southpaw orthodox he makes those punches
05:37 miss and he really comes back with some big power punches.
05:40 Yeah accuracy, one of the traits that we saw in that performance from Setchey against Somerville.
05:47 And he seems to get better by the round.
05:50 Shot there from Huda.
05:52 Yeah I think he gets better because he's wearing his opponents out with his punches.
05:56 Oh, what a really nice shot from Huda.
06:00 Setchey just nods at it but it was a good one, the left hand, the power shot from Ankush
06:05 Huda.
06:06 I can't believe Huda didn't jump on him after that because he was dazed.
06:11 Now it's Setchey coming forward.
06:16 Really nice left hand it was from Ankush Huda.
06:18 His best shot of the fight but Setchey wore it well and has recovered nicely.
06:23 You can take them shots early but as they continue to come in like that you know how
06:27 to take them is good.
06:32 The go again and a cuffing shot from Huda at the end of the second round.
06:37 Another entertaining three minutes of action.
06:39 Round one was good, round two is even better.
06:43 Not known as a knockout artist, Ankush Huda just a one stoppage to his credit.
06:48 And he's four wins so far and it is Setchey doing exactly what he was told to do.
06:53 Oh another big shot.
06:54 Takes another left hand.
06:55 Yeah Ben I know he's doing what he's told but he's not worried about getting hit while
07:00 he's doing it.
07:01 Body shot.
07:02 That was dangerous Jeff.
07:03 Well Tony's going to run into trouble.
07:04 Body shot again.
07:05 Setchey is looking to that body.
07:06 And there's another of them.
07:07 And he's going all out in the early stages of round three is Isaiah Setchey.
07:08 Yeah Ben you've got to realise when you go to the body your head's open.
07:09 You're punching low, your hands are dropped as you go to the body.
07:10 You've got to pick that, it's got to be timed.
07:11 Good shot there from Huda, Setchey taking it.
07:12 Good shot.
07:33 And there's two minutes left here in round number three and Huda's been down.
07:49 And Setchey won't let him off.
07:51 No he definitely won't.
07:52 Here comes Setchey.
07:53 Huda still doesn't have his legs.
07:54 And here comes Setchey with all the time that he will need.
07:55 You will see.
07:56 You would think to deliver one of those trademark big shots but he is milking his moment.
08:20 Beautiful shot by Huda there.
08:27 Doubling up that right hand.
08:28 Oh something massive came back from Huda but missed.
08:29 I mean Huda's showing some great resilience right now Ben.
08:32 He's trying desperately to recover and to respond and he does.
08:38 Oh another great left hook right there.
08:42 Good shot there.
08:43 And he pushes Setchey away from him with good punches to Zankush Huda who's been down in
08:50 this third round.
08:51 Yeah that 30 seconds of showboating certainly didn't help our friend Setchey hit the blue
08:58 corner.
08:59 Definitely didn't Jeff, definitely didn't.
09:00 He let him off the hook.
09:01 He had him right there hook line sinker.
09:03 And Huda happy to hang on and to try to get out of round three which has been a rough one
09:23 for him.
09:24 Lead hook there from Setchey.
09:25 Can he find another big shot?
09:26 20 seconds left in the round.
09:27 Setchey on the chase.
09:28 Huda is looking for big shots over the top.
09:29 The upper cap misses from Setchey.
09:30 There's a little left hand from Huda.
09:33 He goes one two misses with the second of them.
09:37 Setchey misses over the top.
09:39 And there goes Huda again.
09:41 Oh my goodness.
09:42 And this one delicately poised.
09:47 So Huda has been down in round number three.
09:51 Setchey he started quickly in that previous round.
09:56 He tries to do the same here but Huda pushes forward as well.
10:00 That's exactly what you said Ben.
10:02 Oh body shots.
10:03 He's got classy punches where Huda's got these rough punches that he's hoping leads.
10:08 WWE for a moment.
10:12 Oh good shot from Huda.
10:15 Another big shot right there.
10:18 Setchey comes back.
10:20 Upper cap.
10:21 Huda over the top.
10:23 Oh wild shots from both fighters miss.
10:30 Huda's still not on steady legs Jeff.
10:33 He won't be on steady legs but I tell you what he's landing some big punches in this round.
10:37 There's blood from the mouth of Setchey as well.
10:45 Huda looks over the top.
10:46 Then he finds a little right hand.
10:50 Legs changing.
10:53 Setchey gets through onto Huda.
10:57 Huda felt that again and he just tries to hang on and eat some of the time.
11:04 Upper cap from Setchey.
11:07 Huda over the top.
11:08 Good shot there from Huda.
11:09 The upper cap misses from Setchey.
11:13 Setchey to the body.
11:15 And again to the body.
11:17 And Huda's felt those.
11:18 Huda just slows down here for a moment.
11:20 And here goes Setchey.
11:22 There's that shot over the top though.
11:24 That left hand, he loves it.
11:26 He's taking the instructions well in the corner about going to the body but he's not defending himself after he goes to the body.
11:31 Big left hand again Ben.
11:33 Overhand left from Ankush Huda.
11:36 He's scoring at will but Setchey in the meantime is hurting into the body and occasionally over the top as well.
11:44 One minute left for round four.
11:46 He's taking the instructions from the corner to throw to the body.
11:48 But like I said Ben, as you throw to the body and you're throwing from where he's throwing with his hands down around his waist, you're going to get hit every time.
11:54 Exactly Jeff.
11:55 He's just punching at the same time.
11:56 Every time he goes to punch the body and Huda just punches over the top at the same time and lands.
12:03 There's that left hand again.
12:05 Setchey gets through with a tight shot as they spun around there for a moment.
12:10 Definitely not the most strategic bout Jeff but it's a good fight.
12:14 It's a great fight.
12:15 It's entertaining.
12:17 Setchey on the chase and there is a bit of quality about him but he takes some shots.
12:25 20 seconds left, round four.
12:30 And a close round too.
12:32 Very close round Ben.
12:34 He could go either way, look at that.
12:36 Nice leading from Setchey and good response from Huda.
12:40 Left hand just missed by Huda.
12:42 Another great round of boxing.
12:45 They both look for big shots to finish the round.
12:48 Definitely.
12:49 I think this is the moment to shine and I expect him to come out and do a great job.
12:53 They'll have something to live up to after what we're seeing between Setchey and Huda.
12:58 This has been a brilliant fight so far.
13:01 Body shot.
13:02 Huge body shots from Setchey.
13:05 Huda stands up to the man and fires back.
13:08 Setchey on the inside.
13:11 Great shots.
13:12 Well, well.
13:14 What about the chin on him Jeff?
13:17 I asked how he was in the corner and he said he was fine and he's fine.
13:20 I can't believe the courage, the fitness shown by these two guys.
13:26 The skill level is not great but everything else is better than great.
13:31 It's subpar but the heart is there.
13:33 The heart's there for sure.
13:34 Well the entertainment's there that's for sure.
13:36 Setchey and Huda absolutely giving it to each other here in Sydney tonight.
13:42 There's no skill set here.
13:44 There's nothing to set up or anything.
13:46 It's just come in and go.
13:47 Wail away.
13:49 Left hand over the top has been a good shot for Huda.
13:54 And Setchey finds him on the inside as well.
13:57 He just slows down here for a moment.
13:59 There's a good shot.
14:01 And here comes Isaiah Setchey.
14:04 Huda has been in this position before.
14:07 There's a good shot again from Setchey.
14:09 There was no dancing this time.
14:10 He knows he's got to jump on him.
14:12 Body shots.
14:13 Great body shots.
14:14 Good body shots from Setchey.
14:17 Huda stands up to those but for how long as he fires back.
14:23 Upper cut from Setchey.
14:25 Now Huda presses forward.
14:27 And now he backs off for a moment.
14:29 Ben, just before he got hurt I thought he was winning the round.
14:32 I thought he was landing more punches.
14:34 There's a great shot from Setchey.
14:36 Huda rocks.
14:37 When he put his head down now,
14:38 Setchey's got to hit him with that upper cut.
14:39 You've got to come with the upper cut.
14:41 On the inside is Huda.
14:42 But Setchey has him wobbled.
14:45 And here comes Setchey.
14:47 Can he take his man out?
14:48 He's had him down in round three.
14:51 And now here in round five,
14:53 Ankush Huda looks in trouble.
14:55 But he comes forward again.
14:56 Unbelievable.
14:58 Steve Della is holding that tower, Jeff.
15:01 There's a big shot from Setchey.
15:02 But Huda, he comes back yet again.
15:07 Oh, wow.
15:09 And there's not much on those.
15:11 But there's plenty of resilience being shown from Ankush Huda.
15:19 Oh, there's a good shot from Setchey again.
15:22 Good accuracy in this round.
15:27 Tough stuff from Huda.
15:29 Every time you think he's out, he comes back.
15:31 He rocks backwards again.
15:34 And he's got just ten seconds left to get out of this round,
15:38 which has been another tough one for him.
15:42 Big shots everywhere.
15:46 So, incredibly, we've made the final round of this one.
15:52 Huda's been down, and he was rocked in the previous.
15:56 So, he probably needs something special, you would think.
15:59 But there's been some close rounds.
16:01 And Setchey, he would like to finish things off right now.
16:07 Now, Setchey's a very, very strong kid.
16:09 And he's going to continue to march forward until he gets his stoppage, I think.
16:13 Well, that's what Huda has to do when he's doing this, to hold on.
16:16 Oh, my goodness gracious.
16:18 Big straight right hands from Setchey time and time again.
16:22 And Huda just ate them all.
16:24 Didn't move his head once.
16:27 Incredible.
16:29 He just kept taking shots and moving backwards slowly.
16:33 And now he responds with punches.
16:36 He's out again, I'm telling you.
16:38 His legs are no good by now, Jeff.
16:40 To the body goes Setchey.
16:42 And Huda just covers up for a moment.
16:44 And worth bearing in mind that Steve Diller does still have that towel in his hand
16:49 in the end push Huda corner.
16:52 And he will throw it if needed.
16:55 Big shots.
16:56 Oh, my goodness.
16:57 He's the toughest kid, man.
16:58 He can take a shot, that's for sure.
17:00 And he can throw one with that left hand, which gets through onto Setchey.
17:05 Then they come into each other again.
17:08 And he's thrown a lot of punches in this sixth round to Setchey.
17:13 He looks for another big one, and a left hand comes towards him.
17:19 There's a shot from Setchey.
17:21 Huda rocked again, but continues to do what he does.
17:32 And now he's got to get across to Setchey.
17:40 Would you have stopped this fight, Jeff?
17:42 Yeah, I know it's a great fight, but a left-hand hit.
17:46 Yeah, I think he's taken too many shots, to be quite honest with you.
17:54 Oh, another good one.
17:55 He takes another, and he throws some back.
17:59 Oh, there's a good shot from Setchey.
18:01 Huda comes back on the inside, and I guess he's just done enough every time,
18:05 hasn't he, to respond.
18:07 I think Huda's got to learn to put the gloves in front of his face instead of on the side.
18:12 Well, here he goes, Huda.
18:14 Yet he produced something, whereas at Setchey,
18:16 he's back against the ropes, he gets through.
18:22 Oh, he's hit him with the uppercut again.
18:24 And he's rocked his Huda, but he is tough.
18:27 He gets through with his own shots.
18:31 And we approach the final bell with ten seconds left in what has been an enthralling
18:36 and a rugged battle between Isaiah Setchey and Ankush Huda, which deserves to see the final bell.
18:48 It's a six-round classic.
18:50 What an opener.
18:51 What an opener.
18:52 Six rounds for the year.
18:55 Wow.
18:57 Tough stuff from Setchey and Huda, who have the venue on its feet.
19:05 Well, here's the highlights.
19:06 Yeah, the highlights of the entire fight.
19:09 There were strong moments for both fighters through the opening two rounds,
19:13 and there was that huge left hand from Huda that rocked Setchey.
19:19 Then the knockdown, the all-important knockdown for Setchey,
19:25 who also had Huda in trouble in round number five.
19:32 And then they just poured it all out through the final three minutes, boys.
19:36 Not too hard to find highlights on this fight, Ben.
19:43 Just a brilliant fight.
19:45 Ladies and gentlemen, what a way to start off the night here.
19:49 A round of applause, please, for these two super-ultra-weight warriors.
19:57 After six rounds of action, we go to the judges' court cards for a decision.
20:01 Judge Dean Cambridge scores the competition 59-54,
20:05 Charlie Lucas 59-54,
20:08 and Christopher Elende 59-54.
20:12 For your winner by unanimous decision,
20:14 fighting out of the blue corner, Isaiah Setchey!
