00:00 The award that Henri Malmström receives from the audience here at the lake.
00:06 As an amateur, he has already started his career as a 10-year-old boxer.
00:10 He grew up in the Helsinki Sports Forum.
00:12 As an amateur, he managed to take 26 wins and win the Finnish championship
00:18 both in men's and in juniors.
00:22 The men's championship came in 2021.
00:26 In juniors, Henri Malmström also has a silver medal.
00:32 His opponent is Pidor Kakistasvili, a Georgian guy who lives mostly in the Netherlands because of his work.
00:42 He has taken 15 wins as an amateur, but the list is not very large.
00:48 He has lost 14 of these 15 wins.
00:52 He has also taken against Finns earlier.
01:00 In March 2022, he lost to Janne Rantasen, who had already finished his career.
01:09 Ivan Perälä has also taken this opponent against him.
01:16 Ivan Perälä, I don't remember in many fights, but he still hit this guy.
01:25 So at least familiar images and the guy's work are known.
01:30 You can see how Henri Kujanpää, who is the coach of Henri Malmström, has prepared these tactical images.
01:40 But on the other hand, it is quite familiar that this opening period has been.
01:51 This fight has also been designed for six periods.
01:56 Ivan should hit the guard from the third.
02:02 Henri should use his width more.
02:13 It's a waste to stay in the half distance and then fight.
02:17 It's the only distance that Kakistasvili could survive in the fight.
02:22 There is the familiar Malmström performance.
02:25 He has had the familiar way since his amateur days.
02:30 He switches sides. Sometimes left-handed and sometimes right-handed.
02:37 He takes the left side and then switches it so that he is sometimes on the right side.
02:43 It may confuse the opponent.
02:46 But if it is repeated too often, the opponent learns quickly.
02:54 In this first period, Malmström used it for the first time.
02:58 Henri succeeds in it, but it is not worth using it.
03:04 It is like a management. It can go wrong and stupidly.
03:08 But this is a period that goes for Henri.
03:12 A familiar period, but yes, 19.
03:19 Malmström was more active in the end.
03:26 His straights are very effective.
03:32 He can hit them calmly.
03:36 Now he could hit them calmly.
03:40 Henri has a problem that he hits with his hand.
03:44 He should get more weight on the feet and the middle of the body.
03:53 But he is a great coach.
03:59 I'm sure he will get good tactical advice.
04:03 Let's see if the right hand will be activated again.
04:07 Can he get a clearer hit in the next period?
04:15 It is. Even if the ball is a little less followed.
04:21 It feels funny, but it all starts from the feet.
04:25 Not just with the hand.
04:29 Now the right straights come.
04:34 And now again the half-switch.
04:43 The half-switches are quite short.
04:46 Yes, now they have been fast.
04:48 Sometimes they have been longer.
04:50 But still.
04:52 He should keep his distance.
04:54 If he didn't go half distance, he would lose his weight.
04:58 He would fall a little to the length of his friend.
05:03 A little more actively with the front hand.
05:07 Good.
05:09 And from the underhook to the groin.
05:35 It would be good to start with Manustrom to stand up a little.
05:41 When a friend doesn't do any start, it would be good to use it.
05:46 It is shown in the judges' papers.
05:50 And from the forehand he offers a couple of strikes.
05:54 Three jabs in a row.
05:58 He is not in a hurry.
06:05 Now he should build a clear place for the strike.
06:09 The right hand is quite good.
06:11 Sometimes the left hand is over the friend.
06:13 You can open the way for the friend.
06:26 It would be interesting to see the Finnish competition.
06:30 There are many even matches.
06:34 Ivan Perälä, Embu Lajevi, Topias Lepo, Sanderi Lainetta.
06:40 There could be a good time for a tournament.
06:45 The winners could compete in the next evening.
06:49 The Finnish championship could be held in a proper way.
06:54 The audience would be interested.
06:57 It is a small game of cat and mouse.
07:03 Manustrom is looking for a strike.
07:07 He won't make it.
07:22 Manustrom is a very popular striker.
07:26 He is not afraid of doing it.
07:29 When he finds his rhythm, the game starts to slide.
07:34 It is difficult to take on such a guy.
07:40 When nothing happens from the opponent's side.
07:44 It is very challenging.
07:47 You should try to build a place.
07:50 You should not let the opponent do anything.
07:53 You can hit once or twice in advance.
07:56 It is very difficult to take on such a passive striker.
08:00 He does not make the shot himself.
08:03 You can show the other player what he is.
08:06 But it does not mean that Manustrom has taken it very stylishly.
08:11 It is very nice to see a good level of technique in a striker.
08:17 You can see that he has been in a good school.
08:21 Jere Kanninen, who is the coach of this game,
08:25 did not have to miss the game.
08:30 There have been no bad situations.
08:35 There were no violations of the rules.
08:38 What I have enjoyed in Manustrom's game
08:44 is that he has been able to hit the ball with his shoulders.
08:49 He does not just hit the ball from the top.
08:54 If the concentration ends, it ends with a shoulder hit.
09:00 The ball hit the floor.
09:08 You should practice more tactically.
09:14 You have a little too much pressure.
09:19 [Whistle]
09:20 [Shouting]
09:49 [Shouting]
09:52 You should be able to get the ball to move.
09:57 You should be able to get the ball to move.
10:02 There.
10:05 That's how it should be done.
10:08 If you can't get the ball moving in the front,
10:12 you have to hit the floor.
10:15 [Shouting]
10:18 [Shouting]
10:21 [Shouting]
10:47 [Shouting]
10:51 You have to lift the hat to the opponent.
10:55 We are trying to do what the skills allow.
11:00 You have to be brave.
11:04 There was a shoulder hit again.
11:07 [Shouting]
11:16 Again, he is one round behind.
11:21 When you see how Kaki Gassivili walks to the corner,
11:26 he is pretty good.
11:29 He is under the shoulders and he is shaking.
11:34 If the ball was not stiff, it would have been a shoulder hit.
11:40 It affects both the breathing and the technique.
11:47 If you have to breathe more through the ball...
11:52 Yes, the shoulder hits cost a lot.
11:57 Now a couple of times.
12:00 If you could hit the shoulder a couple of times,
12:03 it would have been a good score.
12:06 You just have to catch the ball, because there is space.
12:11 The fourth round is starting.
12:16 The clock is ticking and then we go.
12:19 Right under the chin, Malmström took the lead.
12:31 The fifth round is going on.
12:36 The forehand goes straight up.
12:39 The forehand goes under the chin.
12:42 He always lifts his head up.
12:45 Now straight under the chin and then under the chin.
12:56 Don't be afraid, just be active.
12:59 A little bit of a disturbance.
13:02 You can hit the ball with a straight shot.
13:05 You got the ball.
13:08 Kaki Gassivili moves nicely to the side.
13:14 When he is pushed to the corner, he comes out of it.
13:19 Malmström has to use that advantage.
13:23 Kaki Gassivili has a good balance in his attack position.
13:28 He keeps himself in the game, but doesn't hit much.
13:35 Not a little bit, but he is getting better.
13:41 And again.
13:49 You could try two of those.
13:52 Malmström is getting more active.
14:02 Again, a great left under the chin.
14:07 And these to soften.
14:10 And now right.
14:14 Well.
14:17 Now it's getting to the end of the game.
14:22 A little bit of pressure and you could get to the middle of the game.
14:26 More and more activity.
14:37 Again, give yourself some time to breathe.
14:40 Just keep the pressure.
14:43 Well.
14:48 There it came from the side, as you predicted.
14:56 I don't think Kaki Gassivili will give up.
15:04 He is breathing so deeply, that it's impossible to do anything.
15:10 Malmström takes the win.
15:14 He has to lift the hat.
15:17 Kaki Gassivili did what he can do with his skills.
15:22 He would have needed more initiative to be able to fight more evenly with Malmström.
15:31 Malmström enjoyed the work in front of the home crowd.
15:38 And this was a very important win for him.
15:43 But tactically, Enri was in a good mood.
15:50 Ladies and gentlemen.
15:53 Ladies and gentlemen.
15:56 The winner of the third round of the evening, by a knockout in round 4, time 2 minutes 53 seconds, Enri "Hekka" Malmström!
16:24 And the audience is cheering for you through the microphones.
16:33 Let's hear what Enri Malmström has to say about this fight.
