00:00 Four rounds coming up in the middleweight division, four rounds or less of course, but
00:13 Bartosz Klowacki is a tough, tough man.
00:16 Most Polish fighters are.
00:17 I remember watching boxing a Polish lad, felt like I was hitting a brick wall every time
00:21 I hit him, he didn't even budge.
00:25 Only one man has really been able to make Bartosz Klowacki budge and that was Ben Fail,
00:31 who is a Southpaw himself.
00:33 Maybe something Klowacki wasn't too used to.
00:42 Just being patient, waiting.
00:43 I think he might try to come in with the left hook over the top.
00:48 There you go, left hook over the top.
00:52 Well he is noted for his power in the amateurs, stopped plenty.
01:01 Klowacki just mounted an attack of his own.
01:15 He's just working patiently here, the first minute, just needs to see where he's going
01:19 to twitch in first.
01:20 Good shot by him.
01:21 Well done there, Klowacki.
01:31 This is a fight he was looking forward to Sam King.
01:33 He said that in the amateurs he actually had a lot of success against Southpaw.
01:36 So nothing new for him in this fight, but the durability and the toughness of this man,
01:43 fully grown man, may be new to him.
01:46 What I mentioned yesterday, you have to systematically beat them down, little shots here and there.
01:51 He's getting through now, Sam King.
01:54 He's got him up, pinned against the ropes, Klowacki holds on and the referee will bring
02:01 them apart here.
02:02 Klowacki just gives a little smile for the cameras outside the ring.
02:06 Not sure he wants to be there for too long.
02:15 Just needs to edge in slightly more.
02:20 Good body shot.
02:21 Klowacki is still game.
02:29 This is what he's known for, he's a very game durable circuit fighter.
02:35 Gets through with that.
02:42 Just loops in that left hook over, he's very close.
02:46 He's getting closer and closer.
02:47 He's shipping, he's shipping, right?
02:50 Sam needs to work a bit, that's it, good.
02:56 Sam King gets through with the left there.
02:59 And there, clearly gets through.
03:06 Just backed him up in the corner for a moment there, Klowacki.
03:08 Didn't look comfortable, but mounting an attack of his own, beckoning Sam King on in the corner.
03:18 Ten seconds left in the first here.
03:21 First fight of the evening at the Copper Box, turning into a bit of a tear up here between
03:25 Sam King and Bartosz Klowacki.
03:27 Good first round, entertaining first round, Nathan.
03:30 Yeah, definitely.
03:31 He's been very patient.
03:32 I do feel like he hurts Klowacki with a body shot towards the end.
03:36 I think he probably should have worked a little bit more on.
03:38 But yeah, I think it's just a tense first round, seeing where he's going.
03:41 He hasn't got his range quite there yet.
03:43 And to be fair to his opponents, to Sam King's opponents, he's not doing bad himself.
03:49 But that was a first round, Sam King.
03:52 Yeah, it feels like Klowacki, he hasn't been deterred, certainly hasn't been deterred yet
03:56 in this fight.
03:58 But there were moments in there that Sam King was starting to get through.
04:01 There was a moment in the corner where it looked like Klowacki didn't want to be in
04:04 that corner for too much longer.
04:06 But yeah, second towards the end of the round.
04:09 Martin Bowers giving the instructions in the corner.
04:13 Of course, the trainer of Denzel Bentley.
04:19 Fail twins, formerly Daniel Dubois as well.
04:26 Second round here in our first contest of the evening in the middleweight division,
04:30 Sam King against Bartosz Klowacki.
04:32 It'll be interesting to see what Martin Bowers has said to Sam to break the sled down.
04:48 I think he slipped an uppercut through there as well.
04:50 Klowacki swinging away on the inside, but I think something landed in there from Sam
04:54 King that Klowacki didn't like.
04:57 Again good left hook, maybe bring it to the body as well.
05:00 When he's there, when the range is close, left hook to the body, left hook to the head,
05:03 left hook to the body.
05:12 Referee again just bringing them apart.
05:13 He's had to do that a few times.
05:15 Or even if he brings the left hook to the head and the right hook to the body, should
05:19 he change the levels up for the shot coming through?
05:24 He just needs not to overthink it.
05:42 Sam King just needs to let his shots go.
05:44 Just relax it, that's better.
05:46 Klowacki is very game in there, but he may not be game for too long.
05:50 He gets through there, Sam King.
05:53 Once again, referee Lee Avery will bring them apart.
05:59 Kieran McCann, sorry.
06:00 He said if he chips away with the jab, chips away with the jab, chips away.
06:06 Just chip away a little bit more.
06:08 Good body shots, good body shots.
06:10 Those body shots are doing a bit of damage.
06:12 Now to the body.
06:13 Suddenly, Klowacki doesn't look as interested as what he did before.
06:17 Got through with something there, did Sam King.
06:25 See these moments in between where there's a bit of a lull with his opponents.
06:29 He just needs to be chipping that jab out, occupying him with the jab.
06:32 Sam King's chipping away, and then he can let the body shots go.
06:36 This moment in time, there's a bit of, they're both waiting.
06:39 Now Klowacki's going to be waiting because he's waiting for the counsel of some kind.
06:42 Sam needs to be chipping away just to break him down just a tiny bit.
06:45 Well, the 23-year-old says that he's learning various different styles.
06:50 He's been around the gyms in America, of course in the UK as well, picking up different parts.
06:54 Good shot come through.
06:55 Take one there from Klowacki, and another, that straight left hand has got through a
07:00 couple of times.
07:01 That's better with the jab.
07:02 That's it, better.
07:09 See when he's chipping like that, much better, much better.
07:12 He's a very schooled fighter, Hodderston Amateur Club.
07:18 You feel like if he gets to his boxing, he can make this an easier night.
07:21 Well, absolutely.
07:22 He threw four jabs in the space of 15 seconds, and he produced more work than he'd done in
07:27 the previous way.
07:28 He's waiting too long.
07:29 Of course, he's brought plenty of fans from Luton here with him.
07:32 Good jab, good jab, good jab.
07:33 Wonderful jab.
07:34 Two rounds in the bank, and another entertaining round here.
07:44 What are you making of Sam King's performance so far, Nathan Neal?
07:47 I think he's doing very good.
07:48 I think the only thing, he's just been a little, he's waiting a little bit too long.
07:52 Just that little, it's the activity in between these phases that he's just not really chipping
07:57 away at him.
07:58 He's still doing very good, make no mistake, I'm being very critical there.
08:01 But like I said, there was that period of time where he threw four jabs in the space
08:05 of 15 seconds, and he got four clear scoring jabs.
08:09 And then that preoccupies his opponent with what's coming back at him.
08:14 And then he can let the body shots go.
08:16 But if he's waiting too long, the opponent's just going to wait for that reactive shot
08:19 so he can move out of the way and then survive.
08:22 Why do you feel he is waiting too long?
08:24 Who knows?
08:25 It could be just, obviously, he's on a big platform.
08:27 He's got his supporters here.
08:30 But he might start opening up now.
08:35 You don't want to get caught as well, so that's why you can be tentative.
08:38 Yeah, and Glovatsky, very, very live in there.
08:40 He's throwing big, heavy hands.
08:42 Good, good jab.
08:45 Very good jab.
08:46 He's touched the canvas there, but that looked like it may well be a slip.
08:52 I don't think it's being counted by Kieran McCann.
08:57 Good up cut.
09:03 Lovely uppercut in there.
09:05 And then that left hook, come back with the right hook to the body.
09:11 Good hook.
09:14 Sneaky little left hook in there as Glovatsky dipped down.
09:18 But that's it, great job.
09:19 They're the little shots that are going to break this opponent down.
09:22 The big shots, they can winch up and tent, and they'll get away with it.
09:26 But it's the little shots his eye really, really swallowed.
09:29 Yeah, that left eye now of Glovatsky is starting to swell up a little bit.
09:33 Wonder if that was one of those sneaky uppercuts that Sam King got through.
09:37 Referee's, yeah, he's going to have to have a look at this now.
09:40 I don't know if it's impairing on the vision or not.
09:45 Kieran McCann is talking to him.
09:47 I think he's brought up the doctor.
09:49 It's not impairing his vision.
09:50 I think he should be OK.
09:53 I don't think it's going to get any better, though.
09:54 I think maybe that's the concern.
09:56 Yeah, there's only a round left after this.
09:59 He's having a chat with him.
10:00 Yes.
10:01 He, I mean, Glovatsky here is kind of signalling that he's more than OK with this.
10:09 The doctor will, of course, now,
10:11 have got second opinion.
10:15 Now there's two doctors looking at it.
10:18 He's got the stoppage swallowed.
10:19 And Sam King does get the stoppage.
10:23 The doctors judge that Glovatsky was in no position to continue here.
10:28 That eye is swelling up.
10:29 And as I mentioned, Nathan, the eye is not really going to get any better.
10:32 Just looking at him from before he went into that corner to looking at him now,
10:36 it has swelled up more.
10:37 Oh, absolutely.
10:38 You'd still be gutted.
10:40 If you were him, as a fighter, you want to go to the absolute end.
10:43 But as you say, it's a great shot that caused that in the first place.
10:46 Possibly one of the right uppercuts to sneak through.
10:49 Yeah, you can see Martin Bowers now talking to Glovatsky.
10:52 Sam King coming over to--
10:54 But he was coming much better into the fight.
10:56 That Romczyk, he was picking the shots better.
10:58 He was letting them go more.
11:00 And he was chipping away better.
11:02 It was that chipping away that caused that eye as well.
11:05 Yeah, it was exactly that.
11:07 He was growing into the fight.
11:09 There was a moment in there.
11:10 I know it was a slip.
11:11 There was a moment that Glovatsky did touch the canvas.
11:14 Maybe psychologically, it was starting to turn into Sam King's favor.
11:17 Possibly.
11:18 And that was some good movement on Sam King's himself to force that.
11:22 Well, it will go down as a stoppage win for Sam King.
11:29 As we await the particulars from Thomas Treiber, our emcee this evening.
11:40 Now bringing the fighters together is Kieran McCann.
11:43 Let's hear from Thomas Treiber.
