00:00Boxers, you know the rules. Protect yourself at all times, obey my commands, touch gloves, back to your corner.
00:14Okay, we are in the Super Middleweight Division.
00:18I think I called it the Welters earlier, I didn't mean that.
00:22Super Middleweight Division, six three-minute rounds, doing it for Avia Homes.
00:26Wonderful people, wonderful homes. Check them out online.
00:32One of the rare companies that will answer your questions before you've actually finished asking.
00:40Check them out, Avia Homes.
00:43Jack Bowen in the dark colours, the black and the green.
00:47In the white is his son Glock from South Korea.
00:59Good boxing early on here from Jack Bowen, you can see everything leading off that jab.
01:05That lead hand varying it up really well.
01:08Started with a jab, then finished with a hook just a couple of seconds ago.
01:14Gets back to centre ring really well does Jack Bowen.
01:17Really classy boxer.
01:20On his return like we've said.
01:28His son Glock, he's a worthy opponent though.
01:32He's a South Korean fighter who's once held a South Korean national title.
01:37So he can fight, that's for sure.
01:39I fear he's going to get folded up very quickly here perhaps.
01:43Bowen looking to make a statement.
01:46He's got a heap of support in the crowd here.
01:49And after so long out, he would love nothing more than a big, big win.
01:55He wants to make that statement.
01:58And that's what he usually does Andy.
02:01He holds a 90% KO record.
02:0390% KO record.
02:05So there's only a matter of time I think until Ji Sung feels the heat.
02:10Because it comes and it comes hard.
02:12That uppercut just lands and rocks the head back of Ji Sung Glock.
02:18Impressive punch right there from Jack Bowen.
02:26So composed you can see.
02:28Wide eyed really seeing everything very clear is Jack Bowen.
02:33Starting with the jab.
02:35Feeling comfortable landing with that left hook once again.
02:39And all of a sudden, his opponent's back to the ropes again.
02:45He's a big awkward thing.
02:47Glock?
02:49He is, he is. He's very, very tall for this weight division.
02:53A little bit of orthodox stance, a little bit of Southpaw.
02:57Yeah, switching it up.
02:58Problem there is, so many times you get caught in a neutral stance.
03:04Flat footed, front on.
03:07Much easier target to hit.
03:09You know my theory on it Andy, I don't like it.
03:12Unless you're right at the top level, the real elite, I don't like it.
03:18Some choose to do it and that's fine.
03:22As we see the final couple of seconds of the opening round.
03:27And the opening round was a good one for Jack Bowen.
03:30He's back.
03:36See some replays of that first round.
03:39A very composed Jack Bowen.
03:42Everything coming off that jab, the bang, that right hand.
03:45Paying dividends there.
03:47Catching the chin, you can see.
03:49Beautiful boxing, all from the center of the ring.
03:52And when he wasn't in the center of the ring, he got back to the center of the ring.
03:55And that's what he does best.
03:57He's a brilliant boxer and that's exactly where he wants to be.
04:14We've got super bantamweight royalty in the house tonight.
04:17Obviously Sam Goodman, who was here earlier on.
04:20Egging on, he's one of his good friends in Jason Fawcett.
04:25So he's going for the Undisputed Tag very soon.
04:28Andy, obviously, he's got that big fight with Inoue coming up for all the belts.
04:33I wish him all the very best in that.
04:37Massive shout out to Sam Goodman.
04:40It's a pleasure having you here.
04:42Involved in a premier boxing series.
04:45Mate, that's the ultimate boxing challenge.
04:47Inoue.
04:48He's arguably the best fighter, pound for pound.
04:51And you know what?
04:53Sam Goodman's always been up for the task, though.
04:55He's always challenged himself against the very best.
04:58So he's put himself in a good spot anyway.
05:00And if nothing else, he'll do Australia proud, that's for sure.
05:07We see here, second round.
05:09Starts like the first.
05:11It's Jack just owning the center ring position.
05:14Everything firing off that jab.
05:16Turns his opponent.
05:18Gets his back to the ropes and starts working to the body.
05:20Everything perfect so far for Jack Bowen.
05:36Jesus seems to adapt well, Jack Bowen.
05:39It's one thing having the punches in your kit.
05:43It's a completely different thing
05:45knowing when to throw what punch.
05:48He's comfortable.
05:50He's very experienced and he uses his feet very well.
05:52We see it a lot.
05:54I mean, people try and move their upper body.
05:56But if your feet aren't underneath you,
05:58all of a sudden you find yourself in sticky positions.
06:00And that's a big left hook
06:02just landing there from Jack Bowen.
06:05Beautiful.
06:07He says it's a boxing clinic so far from Bowen.
06:09Hitting him with every shot he throws.
06:11Those left hands.
06:13Those right hands.
06:15Those body shots.
06:17All paying dividends for Bowen so far.
06:19If Bowen keeps throwing right hands like that,
06:21he'll end up
06:23shutting the eye of the opponent.
06:30Makes it difficult.
06:32It's better work from the Korean in close.
06:34He's at his moments there.
06:36But there's the receipt from Bowen.
06:38Look at that eye.
06:40The left eye of Jisung Gwak has exploded.
06:42Clarek coming out.
06:44It's swelling up big time.
06:46Good body shot from Bowen.
06:48The body shots.
06:50I felt that from here.
06:52That was a cracking shot.
06:54That hurt me.
06:58He's having fun in there with Jack Bowen.
07:00Nine wins, eight knockouts.
07:02Just the one loss.
07:04That was to...
07:06Brennan Quinlan.
07:08That's right.
07:09Very unexpected, obviously.
07:11Got caught with a big shot.
07:14But that's Brennan Quinlan's game, isn't it?
07:16He can bang.
07:18Really good boxing performance so far here from Jack Bowen.
07:22As he owns that center of the ring position.
07:30Two rounds down.
07:32Four to go for the boys.
07:36As we see some replays of that second round
07:39with a clinic once again from Jack Bowen.
07:42Feeling so comfortable in there.
07:44Seeing everything.
07:46Bit of showmanship there from Bowen.
07:49But why not with punches like that?
08:05Gee, they're animated in the red corner, aren't they?
08:07Yeah, they certainly are.
08:11Here we go.
08:14Doing a few Hindu squats and having a chat to John Watson
08:19while getting some fresh air on the face of Yi Sung.
08:24I think he was complaining there saying
08:26that squat that Jack Bowen did during the course of that round,
08:30that last round, shouldn't have happened.
08:32Should have got a warning for it.
08:38I don't think I've ever seen a traveling boxer
08:43try and explain to a referee
08:46that the hometown boy should have been penalized.
08:51And the way he's explaining it too, Andy.
08:53He was actually doing it.
08:55He was doing a squat in the corner.
08:57Obviously broken English.
08:59Quite funny.
09:04Once again,
09:05Bowen keeping that lead hand out there
09:08trying to create distance between himself and his opponent.
09:12You can see he's feeling ever so comfortable in there.
09:16Oh, a big right uppercut lands
09:19and the left hand follows straight after.
09:21Jack Bowen is putting on a masterclass.
09:24Good shots there from Yi Sung Gwak over the top.
09:29He's tough.
09:31He hasn't come here to lay down, that's for sure.
09:36He's copped two and a half rounds of an absolute battering.
09:41If we're being fair.
09:50Boxing masterclass so far for Jack Bowen.
09:54Rip just landing as his opponent comes in.
09:57Yi Sung Gwak working well, trying to vary those shots.
10:01He's hitting him to the body, he's hitting him to the head.
10:04He's trying his heart out.
10:25One minute remaining in round number three.
10:28Good left hand doubling it up, tripling it up.
10:31There's Jack Bowen.
10:33Love to send a shout out to Action Metal Recyclers,
10:38Wandless Waste Management,
10:40Marvia Holmes and Soup Creative.
10:47This is really good boxing here from Jack Bowen.
10:50Once again, feeling very comfortable in there.
10:55Like we saw in a previous fight with Hayden Emerson,
10:59he too is feeling ultra comfortable in there.
11:04Good shots from Bowen.
11:07Mixing it up between the body and the head once again.
11:10Throwing those combinations between the body and the head.
11:13Making openings on his opponent.
11:15And he's starting to really feel the pinch here is Yi Sung Gwak.
11:25End of the round.
11:27Really good round. Another good round from Jack Bowen.
11:30Three rounds down and three to go for the boys.
11:48See some replays of that third round.
11:51Another impressive round for Jack Bowen.
11:53That uppercut, wow!
11:56It was almost like a Superman punch.
11:58It came from his knees but it landed and landed hard.
12:02Yi Sung Gwak backing himself in the corner
12:04because he was in Disneyland for a couple of seconds there.
12:08It takes a lot of confidence, a lot of timing
12:11and a big set of stones to throw that Superman uppercut.
12:17It is such a risky punch.
12:19It is such a risky punch.
12:22Any decent coach will tell you, I don't want to see it.
12:27Ever, ever, ever under no circumstances.
12:30But geez, he made it look easy.
12:32He made it look easy, that's right.
12:36Once again, boxing off the back foot is Jack Bowen.
12:41Gwak, force of the canvas.
12:43No knockdown, wiping of the gloves here in the corner.
12:46He'll come out once again and start swinging, no doubt.
13:00He's gained this Gwak, I'll tell you that much.
13:03He's come here for the win, he hasn't come here for a holiday
13:06because he's trying his little heart out and hitting him
13:09but not really scoring with shots like that.
13:12He's hitting gloves more than head.
13:14But let me tell you, Jack Bowen's not hitting gloves,
13:17he's just rocking the head back of Gwak three and four times
13:21in that combination.
13:25Really polished performance here from the returning Jack Bowen.
13:30So comfortable in there.
13:35Probably should be noted that Gwak's had two losses
13:39and those two losses have been outside of his home country.
13:42Anytime he's traveled, he's lost.
13:45It might be three from three because Jack is looking
13:48unbelievable so far as he does another little squat there.
13:51I'm sure he'll get a warning here.
13:53Yeah, he will from Jack, John Watson.
13:57Can you get a warning for that?
13:59Well, apparently he can, he just did.
14:02Not too sure.
14:04It'd be a hard one to find in the rule book
14:06because I don't think many people would have done the squats
14:08in the ring, that's for sure.
14:13Good body shot from Bowen in close.
14:15Oh, the body shots.
14:17They're buckling him over.
14:19Yeah, and I said it in the previous fight,
14:21when you throw body shots and head shots in the one combination,
14:25it's opening him up.
14:27It's opening him up.
14:28Body shots and head shots in the one combination
14:30is opening up spots throughout the body somewhere.
14:34And you can see Jack Bowen's doing that
14:36and he's exposing him every time.
14:38He's coming in over the top with a head shot
14:40or coming in underneath with a body shot
14:42but he's finding holes in the artillery of Ji Sung Gwak.
14:47And that's exactly where he doesn't want to be
14:49and he's backed himself into the corner.
14:51You can smell the finish here, Jack Bowen.
14:54He's getting very confident.
14:56He's been confident all the way through
14:58but all of a sudden, the power's coming with the confidence.
15:03Good body shot from Bowen.
15:05And he's got it.
15:07He's got it.
15:09He's got it.
15:11He's got it.
15:13He's got it.
15:14Good body shot from Bowen.
15:16Two and three shots.
15:18He's going to go.
15:20He's going to go.
15:22He might just be saved by the bell
15:24because he started quenching bad Ji Sung Gwak in that corner.
15:28He's been battered.
15:33Ji Sung goes back to his corner.
15:35I don't know South Korea
15:37but I just think he said,
15:39bloody hell, this kid's tough.
15:41As we see some replays.
15:42Of that fourth round
15:44and it was another dominating round for Jack Bowen
15:48and he found a home for that uppercut again.
15:53I'd be very surprised if his nose was broken after this fight.
15:58He's been caught with uppercuts all night
16:01and not just normal uppercuts, power uppercuts.
16:06Feeling so comfortable in there is Jack Bowen.
16:09What a return.
16:10What a return.
16:30In the corner with Ji Sung Gwak.
16:33Two family members.
16:36Bill Sing
16:38and Sing Tool.
16:40They've been fighting for a while now.
16:43Strand number five.
16:45We are in the super middleweight division.
16:48He started with a cracking left hook once again from Jack Bowen.
16:52He was in a world of hurt towards the end of the fourth round.
16:55It looks like he's regained himself here
16:58because he's come out fresh
17:00and he's charging down towards Jack Bowen.
17:06These South Koreans are tough, that's for sure.
17:11Good jabs there from Bowen.
17:13Two and three, doubling it up.
17:17Uppercut just missing that time from Bowen.
17:21And back onto that jab
17:23and owning that center of the ring
17:25just like he does so well.
17:27You can see hook back to center ring.
17:29Jab, jab.
17:31He's just doing everything so effortless tonight
17:34is Jack Bowen.
17:36I always figure the sign of a really good performance
17:41is when whatever happens
17:44the boxer looks like he's in control
17:48and looks like that's exactly what he wants.
17:51Yeah, exactly.
17:53And that's what Bowen's done here.
17:55It doesn't matter if it's in the corner,
17:57in the middle of the ring,
17:59if it's punching or counterpunching,
18:01it looks like that's exactly what he wants.
18:03It's comfortable, exactly.
18:05And you can see he's just owning this fight
18:08every single time.
18:10Whether it's pressure coming from Ji Sung Gwak or not,
18:13he ends up in that center of the ring position
18:15but he's starting to feel the pinch here
18:17once again like the end of the previous round.
18:21I'll be surprised
18:23if the final bell rings in this fight
18:25because he's been hurt and hurt bad as Ji Sung Gwak.
18:28I can't believe how tough he is.
18:30Good right hand in the middle of that from Gwak.
18:37This one brought to you by Olivia Holmes.
18:46Oh, uppercut lands once again.
18:49How tough is this kid?
18:55He's so comfortable once again,
18:57back on the jab, doing everything right.
18:59And those people with lesser experience
19:01in the earlier fights should watch this back
19:04and this is a pure example
19:06of what you should be doing as a boxer.
19:08Owning that center ring,
19:10getting back to that center ring position
19:12because that's where you're the safest.
19:16Punch the taste out of his mouth.
19:18Very good shot.
19:21Last couple of seconds of the round.
19:26I don't know how Gwak is still standing.
19:30I really don't.
19:32So tough.
19:39Both boys sit down for the final time.
19:42Round 6 of 6 coming up.
19:45It's been a really polished performance
19:48by Jack Bowen, the returning Jack Bowen.
19:51He's been itching to get back in there
19:53and his days come
19:55and he's lived up to it, that's for sure.
20:00Final round.
20:24Here we go.
20:26One last time.
20:27The sixth and final round
20:29in our semi-main event.
20:31Just one to go
20:33to the vacant Australian Super Welterweight title.
20:35This is Jack Bowen
20:37and Yisung Gwak
20:40from South Korea
20:43being brutal.
20:45If you're a South Korean fan,
20:47Bowen has been exceptional.
20:49And you can feel
20:51he just wants to put an exclamation mark
20:53on this performance.
20:55He wants that knockout.
20:57He wants to keep that run going.
20:59You can see he's really starting to
21:02build up to a stoppage finish here
21:04as Jack Bowen.
21:11Gwak just so tough though.
21:13Wow.
21:15There's going to be a number of talking points
21:18over the next week
21:20about what transpired tonight.
21:22Who won and how they won.
21:24No one will be more topical
21:27than the performance of Jack Bowen for mine.
21:29Effortlessly.
21:31Just so effortlessly.
21:33Exactly right.
21:35Just really, really comfortable in there.
21:37101 of boxing.
21:39Everything working off the jab.
21:41Super middleweight division.
21:43So the same division that
21:45Anthony and Danny dominated
21:47for the best part of
21:4915, 20 years
21:51here in Australia and around the world.
21:53It was good to catch up with those boys
21:55last week Andy.
21:57Great ambassadors for the sport.
21:59Obviously put boxing on the map
22:01essentially in the early thousands.
22:03Yeah.
22:0790 seconds
22:09remaining.
22:12Gwak needs
22:14well he needs a miracle.
22:16He needs to put him down.
22:18He needs a hammer.
22:20Yeah he needs a hammer.
22:22Exactly right.
22:28He hasn't stopped having a crack.
22:30Yeah no.
22:32It hasn't been obviously
22:34a bad performance from his behalf.
22:36He's just been outclassed.
22:38Simple.
22:40He probably would have beaten
22:428 or 9 out of 10
22:44usually but not Jack Bowen
22:46and not tonight because
22:48he's been looking forward to this
22:50comeback for a long time
22:52and he showed up.
22:54The South Koreans will probably have
22:55breakfast at South Bank.
22:57They might have a look around
22:59the Steve Irwin Wildlife Park
23:01or head down to the Gold Coast
23:03and I hope they do.
23:05I hope they have a terrific trip
23:07but when he jumps back on that plane
23:09and tries to
23:11get to his economy seat
23:13those rims, that back,
23:15the hands, the head
23:17they will all be from him.
23:19And I reckon the customs will have to
23:21look at his passport twice
23:23because let me tell you
23:25because he's been battered.
23:27His face is completely battered.
23:29Another great performance
23:31from Jack Bowen
23:33and the comeback kid is back.
23:38And in style mate.
23:40That was unbelievable.
23:44Really good performance
23:46from the blue corner.
23:49Big semi-main event.
23:51What a performance
23:53and we'll be back to make
23:55right after this break
23:57on the Premier Boxing Series.
24:25The judges' scorecards
24:27and their read as such.
24:29Judge Rodney Marsh
24:31scored about 60 to 54.
24:33Judge Paul Tapley
24:35judged the contest 60 to 54
24:37and Judge Trent Van Galen
24:39scored the contest 60 to 54.
24:41All to your winner
24:43by unanimous decision
24:45and it goes to
24:47the blue corner
24:49Jack Bowen!
24:51Jack Bowen with a terrific win.
24:53Welcome back.
24:55Back to Boxing James.
24:57Let's have a chat with the winner.
