00:00Look, this is good right here, this is good right here, you gotta touch gloves, do you know what I mean?
00:09Here we go, our main event's set to get underway.
00:12Defending his title for the first time is the WBC Continental Americas Featherweight Champion, Omar Trinidad.
00:19He takes on the Ukrainian in Viktor Slavinsky.
00:24TJ DeSantis along with Pearl Gonzalez, Doug Fisher.
00:27We are inside the Commerce Casino tonight, the site of Hollywood Fight Nights.
00:32And our main event is underway. Omar Trinidad, your champion in white.
00:37The challenger, Viktor Slavinsky in the black with gold.
00:41The southpaw, Slavinsky goes to the body early with that right hand.
00:59Both gentlemen are very calculated in the opening of this fight here.
01:06Feeling each other out, we don't see any nerves.
01:10Both know that they are here and they are ready for this opportunity.
01:14We've seen Trinidad in this main event spotlight multiple times here on UFC Fight Pass.
01:20He's really shined in it, which is why he is the reigning WBC Continental Americas Champion.
01:26Now he looks to defend it against a very tough Ukrainian here in our main event tonight.
01:32Yes, and Omar is doing a great job of feinting right now and trying to pull offense out of Viktor.
01:38Pull movements out of Viktor to read and start his calculations.
01:42But Viktor doing a great job of going to the body, landing upstairs, tight.
01:48Everything sharp right now and then both gentlemen look great.
01:52Trinidad mentioned he took nine years off of boxing, but in the back of his mind pearl,
01:57he always thought that when he came back he would be able to attain this championship status.
02:02He slid into that role quite well and he hopes to take the next step in that evolution here tonight.
02:07Absolutely, he said he's made for boxing.
02:10He's here and as I stated earlier, it's a family affair.
02:13That was a big family affair.
02:15Absolutely, he said he's made for boxing.
02:17He's here and as I stated earlier, it's a family affair.
02:20That was a big shot.
02:24Right hand coming through by the champion in Trinidad Slavinsky trying to throw back a kind.
02:30Fast hands by Trinidad.
02:38Two minutes down here in our opening round of this main event.
02:45Big reach advantage here for Trinidad and you're starting to see that.
02:54He's able to land strikes from the outside and now starting to unload.
02:59Touch over 30 seconds remain here in the opening round.
03:02Great job of landing and he looks to be the bigger fighter, which is very interesting
03:07because Viktor tends to fight at a bigger weight class than this.
03:13It's one thing to have that reach on paper.
03:15It's another to utilize it.
03:17I think Trinidad has been able to do that thus far.
03:19We'll see if he continues to do so as we track our way through 10 round schedules.
03:27I actually had the opportunity of seeing Viktor this morning.
03:30We were working out together in the gym this morning.
03:35First round in the books.
03:38Stay in the corner of the champion Omar Trinidad.
03:41Sits down on his stool.
03:43Pearl, you got to believe that he did what he wanted to in that opening frame.
03:47He did. He did a fantastic job of pulling movements out.
03:50I also think he's doing a great job of reading when Viktor is coming back with his shots.
03:56That's when I believe he's catching him as he's coming back into his structure,
04:01into his stance from throwing his offense.
04:05Omar's all over him right now at this point and has the timing down.
04:09Now in the corner of the challenger, Viktor Slavinsky.
04:11What adjustments does he need to make here as we head into round number two?
04:14I think he needs to add some feints into it and a little bit of movement.
04:18He's doing a great job of going to the body, but he's got to offset right now.
04:23Omar is very, very confident in this moment and kind of dictating the fight at this point.
04:28So Viktor needs to kind of offset that and get his feints and movement going.
04:35Crowd inside the Commerce Casino starting to come alive for the fighting pride of Boyle Heights, Omar Trinidad.
04:42TJ DeSantis along with Pearl Gonzalez, Doug Fisher here as well.
04:45Live tonight inside Commerce Casino.
04:48It is the site of Hollywood Fight Nights, which is live on UFC Fight Pass.
04:53Viktor is extremely lean. I wonder how his rehydration went.
05:00Because he shredded. Everywhere.
05:03And that affects you. If you don't rehydrate, it affects your performance.
05:11Very comfortable in his wake up with Omar Trinidad.
05:14He's so confident in there and he's got fantastic speed and power.
05:19All his punches have a little bit of pop on them.
05:22Nice combination. Finds a home for the champion of Trinidad.
05:29Goes to the body with the right hand.
05:32Really big body shot there from the champ.
05:37He's having his way at this moment in this fight. He's just kind of having his way.
05:41Victor doesn't seem to have his feet under him at this moment.
05:46He's having a tough time figuring out this puzzle and Omar is aggressive.
05:52You can see Trinidad really loading up on his shots as they are finding a home.
05:57A lot of movement here from Slavinsky.
06:00Halfway point of the round.
06:13Trinidad had a fantastic eight week camp.
06:16He said this camp, which I believe we see right now the results of,
06:19he incorporated strength and conditioning.
06:22Said he made a ton of progress in his sparring.
06:24Sparred 180 rounds for this fight tonight, TJ.
06:28That is a ton of work put in the gym.
06:31You can start to see it paying dividends here in the second round, Pearl.
06:35Yes, I asked him where he thought he made the most progress and he said it was in sparring.
06:39His ability to adapt, to move, find his range and power.
06:44We see that all on display right now.
06:47Definitely at home is the champion.
06:5045 seconds left in the second round.
06:55Another big piece of Omar's, or excuse me, a big tool in his toolbox
06:59is he watches his opponents and studies them constantly.
07:04He said he has watched his opponent in front of him every single day since he took this fight.
07:09And you can see it, he understands and he knows the movement
07:12and is kind of one step ahead of Victor at this point.
07:16And yeah, he said that he wants a quick turnaround after this.
07:19He plans to have an incredible performance and he wants a quick turnaround.
07:24Beautiful right hand finds a home for Omar Trinidad.
07:28Oh my goodness.
07:30Final moments conclude there, round number two.
07:34And Omar Trinidad, he's feeling it as he walks back to his corner.
07:38Let's take a look at some of the highlights.
07:41He's feeling it as he walks back to his corner.
07:44Let's take a look at some of the action there as we're through two rounds.
07:47Pearl, walk us through.
07:49Here you just see kind of Omar one step ahead, doing a fantastic job of countering Victor.
07:54Victor kind of unsure of how to enter, where his angles are.
07:59And I mean, just the right hand, the power of Trinidad is on display tonight.
08:05He is ferocious and strong.
08:09It's been a phenomenal night of action here inside Commerce Casino.
08:13Do not miss us back in action.
08:15Chumash Casino in beautiful Santa Ynez, Saturday, August 31st.
08:20KO Kid Sugar Cane Sandoval back in action.
08:24We'll see him all part of Hollywood Fight Nights again, Saturday, August 31st
08:28at the Chumash Casino and of course live right here on UFC Fight Pass.
08:33Our main event continues.
08:35Omar Trinidad, the champion in the white ticket on the challenger.
08:38Victor Slivinsky in the black trimmed with gold.
08:42TJ DeSantis along with Pearl Gonzalez, Doug Fisher here as well.
08:46We are live tonight inside Commerce Casino, the site of Hollywood Fight Nights.
08:50Appreciate you watching on UFC Fight Pass.
08:57Omar's doing a great job feinting and then throwing pepper shots.
09:04Peppering, peppering, adding a little seasoning and then landing a big shot.
09:09Doing a fantastic job with his movement, with his range.
09:12Everything he talked about that he worked on in the camp.
09:14He said he wanted to show that tonight, TJ, and he's showing it.
09:17He's absolutely showing it.
09:18Being a longer fighter here, Slivinsky trying to throw back in time.
09:22But it is Trinidad who is controlling the ebb and flow of this fight
09:26as we are in round number three.
09:28Trinidad, a very committed fighter, says he wakes up at 5 a.m. every morning.
09:32Likes to switch it up, but occasionally.
09:34Typically gets his run going by 6 a.m.
09:36Some days he trains and runs at night.
09:39But he trains four hours a day, six days a week.
09:42He's very committed.
09:44He's very focused right now and driven.
09:46Understands the opportunities that will present themselves.
09:49And just, I asked him, you know, what is his message to his fans?
09:53And he said, follow your dreams.
09:55Work hard because hard work will always pay off.
10:00Ooh, nice combination there.
10:05Trinidad talked about his star, which is on the rise.
10:08Said that, you know, when he's out for those runs, Pearl,
10:10he's starting to get recognized more and more around the city.
10:13And he likes that spotlight.
10:15Yeah, he said he's got people that go out there and run with him.
10:17That's got to be amazing because I swear the road work is lonely
10:20and silent and quiet.
10:22And how amazing is that to run and you have supporters running with you.
10:28Now you're inspiring others through your own work.
10:30And that's just a beautiful feeling.
10:33Touch over a minute remains here in this third round.
10:51Nice one-two by Trinidad.
10:58The clinch there, referee separates them.
11:09Inside the final 30 seconds of round number three.
11:14Victor's allowing the punch count to get ahead of him.
11:18He's allowing Omar's volume to really set the tone and set them apart.
11:25He's got to come back.
11:27When Omar lands two shots, he's got to try to land three.
11:30And I just think he's falling a little bit behind in this fight here.
11:35And I believe it's because he doesn't have an answer.
11:38Three rounds in the books.
11:39Again, our main event, Championship Affair
11:42as the WBC Continental Americas featherweight title hangs in the balance.
11:46Pearl Gonzales walking through some of the action.
11:49Victor landed a nice left hand there.
11:52Trinidad on display here with his power, his speed, his movement,
11:57his awareness, his intelligence,
11:59just landing these big shots with bad intentions.
12:04There's the mother of Omar Trinidad leading the chant here inside the Commerce Casino.
12:11She's having a blast. I'm dancing with her, DJ.
12:14Absolutely. Doug Fisher, let's take a look at your scorecard
12:17and see where we stand after three.
12:19Not a hard fight to score.
12:21It's all Omar Trinidad.
12:23This is a prime example of effective aggression.
12:26He's walking his opponent down and landing big shots.
12:32Well said, Doug Fisher.
12:33We will call upon your scorecard as our main event unfolds.

12:58Round four underway.
13:00Our champion Omar Trinidad wearing the white.
13:03Challenger Victor Slavinsky in the black with gold.
13:07Coming forward with a combination of punches is Trinidad.
13:11Beautiful straight down the pipe work here from the champion.
13:15No, no, no, stop, stop, stop, stop.
13:17We're on UFC Fight Pass, but I still think headlocks aren't allowed in boxing.
13:23Trinidad started his life in his earlier years.
13:27Lived in Mexico for the first few years of it and always loved fighting.
13:32Was always finding himself in fights.
13:36And that's kind of how his family found their way into a gym
13:41and took Omar into a gym.
13:43And so, you know, he was inspired by Lucha Libre.
13:46He loved Lucha Libre.
13:48And as he came over here, his brother showed him WWE and Eddie Guerrero.
13:53And when he wins, he has this celebration that I'm sure you can talk about too, Jay.
13:58Yeah, he hangs from the ropes in the corner,
14:01which is what Eddie Guerrero did in his pro wrestling matches.
14:05You talked about how Omar found his way to a boxing gym
14:08when he was just eight years old
14:10and then took a break from when he was 13 to 22.
14:13He kind of credits that break to being something that actually helped him improve
14:17and stay committed to boxing in the long run.
14:23I was just going to say, he sort of says that despite not being in the gym during that time,
14:27he still thinks he got better.
14:29And you can see that.
14:30I think that most importantly, he found clarity
14:33and found what he wanted in life and his time away from the sport.
14:37And as his life was coming together, he was working two jobs.
14:40I'm sure he saw his future, and then he saw a future in boxing.
14:44And it just helps bring some clarity and understanding of who you are as a person
14:49and an individual and what you want.
14:53Final 45 seconds here of round number four.
14:59Watch your heads, guys. Watch your heads.
15:01Accidental clash of heads.
15:04No cuts, though.
15:05No cuts, though.
15:07No worse for the wears.
15:08We get back under action.
15:0930 seconds remain.
15:15The feints.
15:16The feints are money tonight for the champ.
15:19He's got fantastic feints, fantastic movement.
15:22And it really is keeping Victor on his heels and thinking
15:26instead of doing and working.
15:36Go!
15:37Four rounds down in our main event.
15:45Sticking the corner here of the champion Omar Trinidad
15:48as we look at some of the action here, Pearl.
15:51What do you see?
15:52Here's a tie-up here.
15:53Beautiful uppercut landing by the champion here,
15:55followed by some nice ones and twos coming in there and then hooks.
16:00I mean, he's so intentional in his fight right now.
16:03You see it in his eyes.
16:04This man wants a finish.
16:06He wants to close the show tonight.
16:08If you can see the confidence of the champion growing,
16:11we've seen him time and time again in the spotlight
16:14just feel at home.
16:15And you got to think that's half the battle
16:17in some of these high-stakes fights.
16:19Omar Trinidad proves he belongs from a confidence standpoint
16:22and he also delivers with results.
16:24Absolutely.
16:25And when you get to this level,
16:26he's got a championship level at this high level.
16:28The skills are even.
16:30Good fight.
16:32It's the mindset.
16:33It's who shows up on fight night
16:36and comes to really implement their will,
16:40their skills, their talent,
16:42and it's on display tonight.
16:44Round 5 underway.
16:46Omar Trinidad in the white,
16:48taking on Ukraine's Victor Slavinsky
16:50in the black with gold.
16:57First body shot from Victor.
16:59Victor seems to be finding himself a little bit more
17:01as this fight goes on.
17:04And this is what he needs.
17:05He needs to implement his feints and movement,
17:08come in and out,
17:09and just really give the champion a different look
17:12and adjust.
17:13He has to adjust in this fight.
17:15And the range seems to be a very big challenge for Victor,
17:18but he is finding his way in,
17:20and that's what he's got to do.
17:21He's got to find his way inside this fight
17:23and into his range.
17:29Trinidad goes to the body with the left hand.
17:33Now back up with the right.
17:52Slavinsky has been constantly targeting the body of Trinidad.
17:57I mean, he's attempting to,
17:59but Omar's just doing such a fantastic job in his positioning.
18:03Always positioning himself in an advantageous place
18:06so that he can either counter or start his onslaught,
18:11and finding such great success in this.
18:13And it's the positioning that's ultimately setting him up
18:16for all of his work.
18:19Ooh.
18:20Big overhand right.
18:24Slavinsky touching the chin there with the right hand.
18:30Big response there by Omar.
18:32Inside the final minute of the round.
18:39Omar's got to get his head in the ring.
18:41He's got to get his head in the ring.
18:43He's got to get his head in the ring.
18:45He's got to get his head in the ring.
18:47He's got to get his head in the ring.
19:05Evasive movement on display there by Trinidad.
19:0730 seconds left in round number 5.
19:09Great counter from the champion there.
19:11He's doing a great job of countering
19:13and reading what Victor's next move is.
19:18But Victor is finding some success here.
19:20More success than he has been finding in this fight here.
19:26Glancing left hand for Trinidad.
19:30Right hand.
19:32Final few moments of this round.
19:34Jab from the challenger.
19:39Answered by a big body shot from the champion.
19:43Five rounds in the books in our main event.
19:47The champion, Omar Trinidad,
19:49defending his WBC Continental Americas featherweight title
19:52against Ukraine's Victor Slavinsky.
19:55Doug Fisher, we go to you.
19:57How do you see it after five rounds?
19:59I still have it all. Omar Trinidad.
20:01Five rounds, 50 to 45.
20:04But I will say this.
20:06Slavinsky, I think he had his best round in round 5.
20:10It was tit for tat.
20:12The only thing that separated them
20:14was the punching power of Trinidad.
20:16He landed evenly.
20:18And I really like Slavinsky's punch selection.
20:21I like how he taps the body and the timing and everything.
20:24He just needs to punch with a little more authority.
20:27Appreciate the scorecard there.
20:29Doug Fisher has it all and a shutout thus far
20:33for Omar Trinidad.
20:35But credit to Slavinsky, who's the much shorter fighter,
20:38doesn't have the reach that the champion does.
20:40He's hanging in there, Pearl.
20:42He is. I mean, again, like Doug said,
20:44he did, he had his best round.
20:46He is finding himself in this fight.
20:48But he does, he's lacking confidence right now.
20:52And that's what he needs.
20:54He needs to put the pressure on and just have some confidence
20:56and believe in his work.
20:58Big body shots, big body work from the champ.
21:13Trinidad firing off to the body.
21:16Omar's footwork looks impressively better
21:21than the last time I saw him.
21:23His footwork is getting better.
21:25He's smoother.
21:27He's more fluid in this fight tonight.
21:29And that goes to show all of his dedication
21:32and his hard work is paying off and coming together.
21:37Nice right hand by Trinidad.
21:40One minute down in round number six.
21:45Nice left hand finds a home for the champion.
21:48Champion considers himself a technician.
21:50He said he can do a little bit of everything,
21:52as he's showing tonight.
21:53He can stick to his jab.
21:55He can stay on the outside.
21:57He can fight mid-range.
21:58And he can go toe-to-toe with you.
21:59And he's displaying all of his skills tonight.
22:07Big shots.
22:09Touch over 90 seconds remain here in this sixth round.
22:16Hopping off that jab as a champ.
22:19He is, and the intentions behind his strikes.
22:22As an athlete, as a fighter, as a challenger,
22:25that can be discouraging in itself.
22:27Just to see how hard he's throwing,
22:29how much intention and how furious he's fighting.
22:32That can be discouraging.
22:33And I can almost see that happening in this fight here,
22:36where Victor's just a little thrown off.
22:41Unsure of what to do and unsure in himself
22:43in some of these moments.
22:48I would be unsure if I had a combination like that as well.
22:51Trinidad landing with authority.
22:53He is.
22:54He's coming with evil intentions here.
22:59Referee telling them to work through this clinch.
23:01Right hand on the exit by Trinidad.
23:03Beautiful jab going around the body.
23:1030 seconds remain here in round number six.
23:22Nice uppercut.
23:31The champ's coach predicts a finish
23:33inside of eight rounds.
23:38But Victor is showing that he's tough
23:40and he doesn't seem to be going anywhere tonight, TJ.
23:43The challenger worthy of this title opportunity,
23:47but thus far it has been all Omar Trinidad.
23:51But a look now at the Ukrainian's corner.
23:54Victor Slavinsky, very game.
23:56And when you consider how much he gives up
24:00in the reach department,
24:01he's still very aggressive,
24:02trying to make something happen.
24:03But tonight thus far has belonged to the champion
24:05and Omar Trinidad.
24:06Yes, and that's kind of Victor's story here.
24:09That's his motto.
24:11And his mission is he wants to show that regardless,
24:14especially with this country,
24:15his country's going through a very hard time right now.
24:17He said he wants to show that they can be strong
24:20and they can persevere.
24:21So understanding that and he understands
24:24this is a very tough opportunity in front of him
24:26and believes he's going to win the fight tonight.
24:32We are headed into round number seven.
24:41And here we go, scheduled for ten.
24:44TJ DeSantis along with Coral Gonzalez,
24:46Doug Fisher here as well inside the Commerce Casino.
24:49It is the site of Tom Woffler's and Hollywood fight nights.
24:54Appreciate you joining us live on UFC Fight Pass.
24:57Nice combination by the challenger here.
24:59He looks like he's got more intentions behind the strikes.
25:02He looks like he's coming in here
25:03and he's trying to get to work
25:05and he wants to make something happen in this fight
25:07and that's what he's got to do.
25:15Left hand finds a home for the challenger.
25:27Big movements here from the champion as he's defensive.
25:30Ooh, nice right hand by Trinidad.
25:34Sometimes Victor throws his strikes and then he waits
25:45for a receipt and he gets caught in those moments
25:49instead of just continuing to move
25:51looking for the next opportunity to throw his offense.
25:54He is finding more success though.
25:57He's taking more risks in this round here
25:59and he's landing more.
26:01His shots don't seem to be landing.
26:03Omar said no.
26:05He said he was just kidding.
26:09Halfway point in the seventh round.
26:11Champion on point with that combination as you mentioned.
26:42Inside the final minute of the seventh.
26:46Loading up on that right hand as Trinidad.
26:59Referee calling time.
27:06Accidental headbutt.
27:07You can see it left a mark underneath the left eye
27:10of Slavinsky.
27:14Action back underway.
27:26Thirty seconds remain in the round.
27:30Good movement from the champion here.
27:38Seven rounds of action in the books in our main event.
27:57A round that saw an accidental headbutt.
28:01We're going to take a look at that headbutt here, Pearl.
28:05There was right underneath that left eye of the Ukrainian.
28:08Yes, he's already wearing it.
28:10He's already got a mouse underneath his eye.
28:12That was a big shot there.
28:21See if that plays a factor as we head down the stretch in this fight.
28:29Doug Fisher, how do you see it after seven rounds?
28:31I finally found a round for Victor Slavinsky.
28:34I think by far round seven was his best round.
28:37Still competitive, still close.
28:39I just think Slavinsky got enough done over the first half of that round.
28:45I really liked his body shot and I liked that he applied effective pressure.
28:52Our round number eight underway.
28:54Omar Trinidad, your champion in white.
28:57The challenger Victor Slavinsky in the black with gold.
29:01Let's go.
29:08Nice right hand.
29:17Mentioned, Pearl, that Trinidad wanted to get a stop at within the eighth round.
29:22Time running out as far as that window is concerned.
29:25Still a performance to be proud of, I think, through seven rounds and some change.
29:29Absolutely, and he's improved tremendously since his last fight.
29:33There are a lot of wins inside this performance for Omar.
29:38Just his movement, his feints, the ability to draw out and shut down all of Victor's tools
29:47for a majority of this fight just completely shut him down from whatever he had planned.
29:52Whatever the game plan was, it was shut down by Omar's offense.
30:00Very professional performance thus far for Omar Trinidad.
30:05Undefeated on his campaign.
30:08Fifteen wins.
30:10Twelve by way of knockouts.
30:13We're not done yet here as we're at the halfway point here of round number eight.
30:20As the fight continues on, Victor seems to be getting more comfortable inside there
30:27and willing to take risks and getting a little more confident as this fight goes.
30:34But that movement that the champ is doing right now, that's what he's got to continue.
30:39I do think that he will find a lot more success in an already great performance with that lateral movement.
30:47Inside the final minute of round number eight.
30:55Two men getting busy here.
31:06Victor's got some swag, I like it.
31:09Big right hand by Omar.
31:13Levinsky covering up, trying to fire back.
31:17He's doing a great job of getting underneath some of these shots here.
31:20He's much better at dealing with the offense of the champion.
31:32And he's got it.
31:35The champion.
31:52Eight rounds in the books in our main event again.
31:55WBC Continental America's featherweight title hangs in the balance.
31:59Team Trinidad out in force as we head into round number nine.
32:05A look at the champion now in the corner.
32:08Pearl, how did you see that last round go?
32:11It was another round for the champion, I believe.
32:14Victor did find some success in there and he was able to land some shots,
32:17but when Trinidad really starts to implement that lateral movement and his pivots and feints,
32:24he's so hard to deal with.
32:26Not only is he sharp and fast and powerful and accurate,
32:30but then you add in that movement, it's just so hard to deal with him.
32:34It really does set him apart in this fight.
32:37And I think that he implemented that lateral movement very well in this round.
32:43See what the output looks like for both men as we head into round number nine.
32:50Omar looks fantastic. He's bouncing up and down.
32:53Does not look like he just fought eight hard rounds of a fight.
32:56He looks great tonight.
33:00Victor rallying through. Victor is rallying through and really trying to find some success here
33:05and find his way into this fight.
33:13The lateral movement makes Trinidad so difficult to deal with.
33:17Now they tie up.
33:20Are you going to intervene and separate the two?
33:24Are you going to intervene and separate the two?
33:33Trying to find a home for that uppercut as the champion in Omar Trinidad.
33:47There's a lot of power on both of these men's punches.
33:52One minute down here in round number nine.
33:55There is, but the intentions behind Trinidad is what's really setting him apart.
33:59The movement, the positioning, as I talked about earlier,
34:02is what is really paying dividends in this fight.
34:07He's always in perfect position to land a shot.
34:23Action picking up here at the halfway point of round number nine.
34:32Nice pressure coming from the challenger here in this round.
34:38You mentioned Slavinsky's waited four long years for an opportunity like this.
34:42He's trying to make the most of it.
34:46Touch over a minute remains here in round number nine.
34:49Hard right uppercut for Omar Trinidad.
34:59You can see that swelling underneath the left eye of Slavinsky showing itself.
35:15Both men touching each other here with some punches.
35:18Oh, that was a big uppercut.
35:20He might be in trouble, Slavinsky on the ropes.
35:24Referee going to call it a knockdown, laying the count to the Ukrainians.
35:27Slavinsky doesn't agree with it.
35:30If those ropes weren't there, though, Pearl, I think he was headed down to the canvas.
35:34That was a tough one. That was a tough one. That was a big shot.
35:37It was a delayed response, but it was a big shot.
35:40Let's see, he's all over him now. Let's see if he can close the show.
35:43Trinidad swinging for the fences here.
35:46Final few moments around the nine.
35:48The challenger in serious trouble.
35:50Oh, my goodness.
35:54Man, he's tough.
35:55What a round, what a statement.
35:57Team Trinidad got to be elated with what Omar turned in there tonight.
36:02Oh, my goodness. But Victor, hats off to Victor for weathering the storm.
36:06He's tough. He's here.
36:08He knows how big this opportunity is.
36:11He's upset and maybe he's frustrated in himself,
36:14but there is no denying how big of a shot that uppercut was.
36:17Let's take a look here.
36:20Lands a nice jab of his own here.
36:22Victor has the uppercut perfectly timed.
36:25It was a delayed response, but he's on skates here.
36:30And the referee wisely seeing that the ropes prevented a knockdown.
36:35And like you said, a delayed shot there.
36:38Slavinsky, he couldn't eat it and walk through it.
36:40Ultimately, he ends up stumbling backwards.
36:43Perfectly timed from the champion here.
36:45And he follows up with a beautiful right hand.
36:48I mean, great follow through.
36:52From Omar Trinidad.
36:54Tenth and final round championship fight here in our main event.
36:59Omar Trinidad defending his WBC Continental America's featherweight title
37:04against the challenger, Victor Slavinsky.
37:07TJ DeSantis along with Pearl Gonzalez, Doug Fisher ringside tonight
37:11inside the Commerce Casino, the site of Hollywood Fight Nights.
37:17Omar's looking for that uppercut again.
37:20He's just timing his shots now.
37:23And I mean, it was like he did it.
37:25It paid off.
37:26That patience and discipline really paid off in that last round for the champ.
37:33Work, guys, work!
37:36Working in the clinch here, and now they're back in space.
37:39Nice right hand for the champion of Trinidad.
37:42Power. His strength and conditioning coach has to be proud of this performance
37:45because he's powerful tonight.
37:47You mentioned that was a focal point for Trinidad in camp.
37:51Another big uppercut.
37:55See the blood flowing from the nose of Slavinsky.
38:01Slavinsky's so tough, though.
38:03He's not at all fazed.
38:05You see he's still trying to come forward.
38:07He's still trying to fight and win this fight.
38:10Regardless of what's been thrown at him,
38:13he's done a great job of pressing the fight
38:16and trying to find some success in this one.
38:19The challenger has been just that, a challenge for the champion.
38:23But the champion has been in control,
38:25especially down the stretch halfway point of this tenth and final round.
38:34Work, guys, work!
38:36Stop, stop, stop!
38:38In the clinch here.
38:40A bit of separation back at space.
38:47Right hand to the body by Trinidad.
38:57We saw that picture-perfect uppercut in the ninth.
39:00We'll see if Trinidad has one more in him
39:03as we're in the final minute of the fight.
39:05He's certainly trying, TJ. He's certainly looking for that.
39:08Oh my goodness!
39:10On demand! Slavinsky hits the mat!
39:13Trinidad puts him to the canvas in the tenth.
39:21Referee telling Slavinsky to walk to his corner.
39:24That's it, it is done!
39:26Omar Trinidad, victorious!
39:29He remains undefeated,
39:31and he remains the WBC Continental Americas featherweight champion.
39:36What a performance! What a shot!
39:39He was timing it all round and finally found a home.
39:45He wanted a stoppage before eight.
39:48He gets the stoppage in the tenth.
39:51What a performance to be proud of.
39:54Omar Trinidad doing it big once again here in Los Angeles.
39:59Phenomenal performance from this young man here.
40:02He was so disciplined.
40:04You saw the power, you saw the strength and conditioning pay off in this fight.
40:08He said it. Everything that he said he was going to do tonight, he did tonight.
40:11And capitalize on it, TJ.
40:13His mother very proud.
40:15And for good reason, Omar Trinidad
40:18doing big things on the Hollywood Fight Night stage once again.
40:24Let's take a look at the end.
40:26Pearl, it was picture-perfect.
40:28He was timing the uppercut.
40:30And there it was.
40:32And it was lights out.
40:34The show was over.
40:36Beautiful uppercut landed from the champion there.
40:40And he knew it. He walked it off as soon as he saw that land.
40:42He knew what time it was.
40:45It's time to celebrate for Team Trinidad.
40:49Omar's dream is to take his family out of his neighborhood
40:52and to one day live financially free.
40:56He wants to be 50 years old and look back and say,
40:59I did what I said I was going to do.
41:01And tonight, TJ, he is one step closer to making that dream come true.
41:05It was a night that he and his family and fans will remember for many years to come.
41:11A highlight reel knockout.
41:13It comes in the tent.
41:15And you've got to believe that big things are still coming on the horizon
41:19for one Omar Trinidad.
41:21Absolutely incredible performance from this young man.
41:24And there's the move.
41:26There he is.
41:27A sign of acknowledgment to the late Eddie Guerrero.
41:31Another great night for your WBC Continental Americas featherweight champion, Omar Trinidad.
41:38Oh, my goodness.
41:40What a way to close the show tonight, TJ.
41:45Gosh, that uppercut.
41:47That uppercut might have sent him.
41:49And I asked the question if he had one more in him.
41:53He landed it in the ninth.
41:55He put an emphatic punctuation on it in the tenth.
42:00Credit to Victor Slavinsky, who was incredibly game as a challenger.
42:04But we saw all the makings of a champion
42:07and all the makings that make Omar Trinidad so good in the boxing ring.
42:13Let's take a look at the uppercut in the end one more time.
42:17Oh, my goodness.
42:19There's that first big uppercut.
42:21He saw the effects.
42:22It was a delayed response, but he knew that was there.
42:25And the rest of the night, he was looking for that one shot.
42:30And that one shot finally found its home, TJ.
42:32And like you said, he walked it off.
42:34He knew exactly what the deal was when he landed in the tenth.
42:38And ultimately, it will be the shot that gets his hand raised,
42:42as it is and still, for one Omar Trinidad.
42:48For the official time of the stoppage, we go in the ring to Matthew Perrino.
42:51Ladies and gentlemen, the bout has come to a halt at two minutes,
42:5731 seconds in the final tenth round.
43:01Declare the winner by knockout and still the WBC
43:09Continental America featherweight champion, Omar Trinidad.
