00:00This is a low line here, here, all right?
00:04Okay, we went over the rules early in the dressing room.
00:06I want you to obey my commands, protect yourselves all the time,
00:08have a good, clean fight.
00:10Feliz Olimpia y Buenos Fuertes. Good luck.
00:12Let's go.
00:26Woo!
00:28Yeah!
00:32Okay.
00:42Yes!
00:46Yeah!
01:12Yeah!
01:16Good job.
01:22Good job.
01:26There's no way out.
01:30There's no way out.
01:36Good job.
01:38Hey, hey, hey.
01:42Bello, bello.
01:46Bello, bello.
01:50Bello, bello.
01:54Yeah.
01:58Right up her cut, just off the mark for Persona.
02:00The idea was there.
02:02And there's the clean left hand,
02:04Augustina Vasquez coming forward.
02:06Vasquez to the body, there's the counter hook to the head by Persona.
02:08Nice combo from Vasquez.
02:10Now in the pocket comes Agustina Vazquez.
02:1315 seconds remaining, round number one.
02:14Both fighters trying to turn up the temperature,
02:16closing stages of the opening round.
02:19Nice body shot.
02:20I think we talked about her going to the body early.
02:22She dug out pretty good.
02:24But Vazquez came right back with, like, six, seven in a row.
02:27That ends round number one.
02:30That's exactly what we were talking about with Vazquez.
02:33You know, she was wanting to pile that pressure on pushback.
02:35You know, Sabrina is struggling a little bit
02:38and not using her range as much.
02:40She's got the longer reach.
02:41She's the taller fighter.
02:42She should be trying to keep that range there
02:45and stop Vazquez pushing forward.
02:51So you see, as Vazquez pushes her back,
02:54not only does she push her back,
02:55but Sabrina takes about three steps backwards
02:58and end up in the ropes.
02:59And I said, that's not where she wants to be
03:00for this fight.
03:01No, she's used the angles.
03:03That's right.
03:04Move left to right,
03:04but keep herself in the center of the ring.
03:09It's always a hard task being the first fight out of the night.
03:12You know?
03:13So you've got the nerves of being the first ones out.
03:16And you guys, they're setting the tone
03:18for the whole night right now.
03:19Exactly.
03:21And our fighter meeting artist, Christina Vazquez,
03:23said, I believe I'm going to see early pressure aggression
03:26from Sabrina Persona.
03:28I have to find the mistakes and then capitalize
03:30through her aggression.
03:31Round number two.
03:35Board off the jab from Southpaw.
03:37Board off the jab from Southpaw, Sabrina Persona.
03:40Shuffling in the step from the orthodox stance,
03:42Augustina Vazquez.
03:43Vazquez off the double jab.
03:46That was...
03:46Snuck that uppercut in.
03:48Lean on the uppercut.
03:48Counter right hand from Vazquez.
03:51Now we're starting to catch fire a little bit.
03:54She found her range, I think.
03:55It's a good right hook there from Persona.
03:58Followed up by the backhand.
03:59Persona taking herself against the ring ropes,
04:01re-sitting with the left hand.
04:02There's that right uppercut again from Sabrina Persona.
04:05Counter with the two.
04:06Vazquez coming hard to the body.
04:09See a lot of head movement from Persona,
04:11but she's playing defense, playing offense,
04:12Augustina Vazquez.
04:15Big hooks to the body.
04:16There's the counter left hand to the head from Persona.
04:18Say Persona needs to get out that corner.
04:20Whether those punches were doing damage or not,
04:22it doesn't matter.
04:23It doesn't look good to the judges.
04:25Bouncing off the ropes somewhat theatrically there,
04:28Sabrina Persona to reset.
04:29Hard to the body goes Vazquez.
04:3255 seconds remaining, round two.
04:34This is a good round.
04:36I think Persona got back to the corner,
04:37got told she needs to up the work rate
04:39and stop letting Vazquez push her back.
04:41Yep, just like, as you said, about pushing her back,
04:44she got pushed back and got caught with a straight right.
04:47Going backwards.
04:48Body head from Augustina Vazquez.
04:50Resetting center of the ring, Sabrina Persona.
04:53Persona just dealing a little bit with a bit of blood
04:56from the nose there.
04:57I think that was that lead uppercut there from Persona,
04:59where it was quite a heavy shot early on in the round.
05:01It was a cracking shot, yeah.
05:03Center of the ring is exactly where Persona told us
05:05she wanted to control this fight.
05:07She's in the center of the ring now.
05:09To the body, then the right uppercut.
05:10Counter left hook to the head from Vazquez.
05:1215 seconds remaining, round two.
05:18Yeah, that's it, turn off those ropes.
05:20Just like she did there, it was much better.
05:22Nice body shot.
05:23See a bit of playfulness, closing seconds of round two
05:26from Sabrina Persona.
05:27Next stop, round three.
05:33Much more exciting rounds there,
05:35because I think Persona came out there to prove a point,
05:38you know, especially after the first round.
05:39Well, no more filling out for that round.
05:42They went straight to it.
05:43Here's some of the action where Persona was on,
05:45we had her back in the corner,
05:47and I don't know how clean those shots were,
05:49but it looked bad to the judges, in my opinion.
05:51Some good body work from Persona.
05:53Absolutely.
05:54Good exchange for both of them.
05:56I think we always say that, don't we?
05:57You don't want a fighter to sit in the corner,
06:00you know, when you don't need to be there taking punches,
06:02even if they're not hurting you,
06:03or you feel like it's not causing you too much damage,
06:06you don't need to sit there and take that.
06:08It just doesn't look good.
06:09No.
06:11Even though she had some real success
06:13at the beginning of the round,
06:14and she did land the heavier punches, in my opinion,
06:17Vasquez has got the higher work for it.
06:19Yes.
06:22Seconds out called, set for round number three.
06:26There is the bell.
06:28Fighters immediately to the center of the ring.
06:31See the up and down movement,
06:32the level changes from Sabrina Persona.
06:35Very wide stance from Augustina Vasquez
06:37at the start of the third round.
06:40Left hook just off the mark.
06:43That's a sneaky left hand Vasquez put in there to the body.
06:48Nice counter, good counter.
06:51It's called a soft warning in referee speak
06:53from referee Lawrence Cole on the low blow we fight on.
06:58Vasquez up on her toes,
07:01trying to get that range a little bit closer
07:03and negate Sabrina's longer range.
07:08She needs to throw on her way in, I feel.
07:10She absolutely does,
07:11but one thing that Sabrina's not really doing
07:13is she's not keeping her out with the jab.
07:16So Sabrina, I mean, Vasquez is able
07:18to just walk straight there
07:20and get as close as she wants to.
07:22Now, it looks like Persona's using that range
07:24a little bit more, using her feet and the jab,
07:26but she got stepped back with a straight left.
07:29That was thudding.
07:30Vasquez trying to cut the ring.
07:33What I like about Vasquez is Persona will throw one shot,
07:36maybe two shots, and Vasquez comes back with three, four, five.
07:38Absolutely.
07:40This is what's great about this weight class.
07:41You know, the combination punching
07:43is what we want to see.
07:44Yeah, they stay active.
07:45Yeah.
07:46Swing and a miss, duck under from Augustina Vasquez
07:48on that right hook from Persona.
07:4940 seconds remaining, round three.
07:51There's the right uppercut, now to the body
07:52goes Sabrina Persona.
07:54Persona's working really good in this exchange,
07:56and I would say she's getting the better of Vasquez right now.
07:59Almost a bolo punch, another on the uppercut
08:01from Augustina Vasquez.
08:03Two bolos, then the uppercut with the rear right hand.
08:05And as I said, that Persona was getting the better of it.
08:07Sabrina comes back and starts getting her
08:10the advantage of the exchange.
08:12This is a good fight.
08:13Ooh, good.
08:14That was a clever combination.
08:16Body, head, then the right hand.
08:18Now, Augustina Vasquez coming forward
08:20in the closing seconds of round three.
08:21Persona still has a chance to turn this round.
08:24It's a very close round.
08:25But if she leaves it like this, I don't think she'll win.
08:29We are through three rounds.
08:31That was a great round.
08:32That was a very good round.
08:35I'd hate to be a judge right now.
08:36Yeah, me too.
08:37I was just thinking that.
08:56Just caught her there with a very short lead up cut.
08:59Vasquez.
09:00So a lot of that busy work is winning it for her.
09:02Yeah.
09:03Again, it wasn't very effective.
09:04But she was doing more than her opponent.
09:07Yeah, I think Sabrina as well, she
09:08talked about going to the body in this fight.
09:11And we started to see glimpses of that.
09:13We have to remember, this is only four two-minute rounds.
09:16So you have to really start straight
09:17from the beginning on that.
09:19Yeah, six.
09:20Oh, sorry, six rounds.
09:21I believe we have six rounds.
09:22But nonetheless, the body shots are not
09:24as big of an investment as they would
09:26be in a 10, 12-round fight.
09:27Yeah, absolutely.
09:30Start of round number four.
09:34Opening three rounds, very high-paced,
09:36as you would expect from talented 105ers.
09:39Augustina Vasquez.
09:41This is her eighth pro boxing bout,
09:42the Argentine versus the Californian, Sabrina Persona.
09:46This is her sixth pro boxing bout.
09:48Vasquez coming forward, early stages, round number four.
09:51To the mid-range, to the pocket.
09:53She caught it with a good hook coming in.
09:57I think this is where Sabrina could be using her jab a lot
09:59more, like you said.
10:00You know, she'd be jabbing her way in,
10:03and just then stepping back out of range.
10:04A little step back afterwards.
10:06It'd make a big difference in this fight right now.
10:09The adjustments that, let's see if they make the adjustments.
10:11They got about three more rounds to go, and it's a close fight.
10:14Starting to see Augustina Vasquez really load up and wind
10:18up with her right hand.
10:19Nice exchange from both ladies.
10:21And a right hook from Persona.
10:23Off her back foot, on the front foot, Augustina Vasquez.
10:26That was a beautiful pullback that Vasquez
10:28did to make her miss that hook.
10:29And then stepped right in with a nice straight from her own.
10:32Just saw the full push away by Vasquez.
10:34No warning from referee Lawrence Cole.
10:35We fight on.
10:3755 seconds remaining, round number four.
10:39Great upper body movement from Vasquez as well.
10:41She's really demonstrating some good defensive work
10:44in this round as well.
10:46That was a nice body shot there.
10:48Body then head from Persona.
10:50Both fighters continue to land, continue to have their moments.
10:54Ever so subtly, the momentum shifting back and forth
10:57in this fight.
10:58Persona needs to just be a little bit careful,
11:00because when she comes quite square,
11:01she steps that back foot forward and puts the both feet together.
11:05Whereas Vasquez is very good at keeping her shape.
11:09And it gets her out of trouble quite a lot.
11:11Persona now coming forward to the body,
11:13goes Augustina Vasquez.
11:15Vasquez is ripping to the body much more this round
11:18than last time.
11:19Watch that head, Persona.
11:21Ooh, good straight left.
11:22Final seconds, round number four.
11:25Downward on the two, Augustina Vasquez.
11:27See the elevated head movement again of Sabrina Persona.
11:31Stop, round number five.
11:35It's a really fantastic fight opening about, you know.
11:38That was a close round.
11:39Again, I'm not envious of the judge's job tonight.
11:43No.
11:44Thanks.
11:46See in the corner of Augustina Vasquez.
11:51To the corner of Sabrina Persona.
11:57Vasquez is very proud, you know, representing her country.
11:59And, you know, I think she's come up,
12:02turned up to really put on a great performance here.
12:04The same with Sabrina.
12:05She's like, you know, very, very, very good.
12:08She's a very good fighter.
12:09She's a very good fighter.
12:10She's a very good fighter.
12:11She's a good fighter.
12:12She's a good fighter.
12:13She's a good fighter.
12:14She's like, you know, really matching her and making
12:17quite an exciting fight.
12:18So yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing this next round.
12:22Neither one of them are letting anyone take a clear advantage.
12:26As soon as someone gets some momentum,
12:28the other one takes it right back.
12:30Persona told us in our fighter meeting
12:32she felt that she would be much faster than Augustina Vasquez.
12:35Persona is fast.
12:36Vasquez is fast as well.
12:39Fast start to round number five for Augustina Vasquez.
12:41Immediately to the body.
12:43Trying to cut the ring.
12:44Now coming forward.
12:45Good turn up by Sabrina Persona.
12:47That was clever.
12:49Yeah, I think Persona's allowing Vasquez
12:51to come forward quite well.
12:53And that was a good shot there.
12:55Yeah, it's because she's not jabbing.
12:58If she would keep her out of the jab,
13:00it would make Vasquez's job a lot harder.
13:02Absolutely.
13:02Nice combo from Persona.
13:05Good speed.
13:05There's the duck under again.
13:07Vasquez, though, hooking to the body.
13:10Vasquez actually using the fact that she's
13:12slightly shorter to her advantage,
13:14especially in this fight.
13:16She's really using it to duck under those punches
13:19and block well and come back again.
13:21Just exactly right there, you saw that duck
13:23underneath the backhand.
13:24Vasquez is in a good rhythm right now.
13:25She's tapping into that ultra instinct.
13:29And I think you make a great point.
13:30And that's why we're seeing, I believe, so many roll
13:33under, so many duck through, so many level
13:34changes from Sabrina Persona.
13:37Now the turn into the clinch.
13:38The push off.
13:39Good refereeing from Lawrence Cole as we fight on.
13:4250 seconds remaining, round five.
13:44Good shot.
13:45Good one, too, from Vasquez.
13:47Again, you see the duck under from Sabrina Persona,
13:49listed at 5-5 to Vasquez's 5-1.
13:51Vasquez coming forward once more to the body.
13:55To the head goes Agustina Vasquez.
13:57There's the right hand getting through.
14:00She's very good at taking her head off the center
14:02when she throws that right hand, especially useful when it's
14:05fighting southpaw orthodox.
14:06Absolutely.
14:07And again, even though it's a southpaw
14:09and an orthodox going together, oh, good uppercut.
14:12I would like to see more jabs.
14:13Yes.
14:16But, you know, Vasquez has a great game plan.
14:18She is executing it.
14:20And Persona, she's not letting her get too far away
14:23from her, but she's got to take it up.
14:25Yeah, she just got caught with a right hook from Persona,
14:28which may have taken a couple of steps back,
14:30but she's straight back on it again.
14:31Straight back on it, absolutely.
14:34Next up, the sixth and final round.

14:48On BrinksTV, the kingdom of awesomeness.
14:56Somebody's breathing harder than the other.
15:00When you've got that sort of applying that pressure
15:02and coming forward all the time, if you're not giving yourself
15:05that break by using the jab to create the range
15:07and, you know, step your feet around,
15:10it can be very tiring mentally as well as physically.
15:13Last round.
15:17Yeah, yeah, yeah.
15:18Vasquez first off her stool there.
15:21Ready and ready to go.
15:22So, the ensual being applied.
15:24Under the left eye, Sabrina Persona.
15:27Nice deep breath from Persona.
15:28That's the final round.
15:32There is the bell.
15:33Sixth and final round underway.
15:36Sporting touch of gloves and right to it.
15:39And immediately you see the level changes.
15:41Coming forward, Sabrina Persona.
15:42She's been doing that more and more as this fight has progressed.
15:45Oh, there's a jab.
15:48Left hand.
15:49They've been very varied this fight.
15:52Fantastic uppercuts, some hooks, and some great body work.
15:56But a few more jabs would be nice.
15:58Bouncing the step of Augustina Vasquez.
16:00For all the talk about her utilizing sharp counterpunching
16:03in our fighter meeting,
16:04Vasquez has been first in a lot of these exchanges.
16:07Well, first and last.
16:09There's the right hook.
16:11Head movement.
16:11There's a clever right uppercut from Vasquez.
16:13That landing.
16:15Although this is a close fight,
16:17and I think Vasquez may be slightly ahead,
16:19I don't think anybody can afford to take this round off.
16:22No, I definitely agree with you there.
16:24That was a good shot to the body there from Persona.
16:29Persona to the head, turning over the left.
16:31Right uppercut, right hook to the body.
16:32Again to the body and the uppercut from Persona.
16:35Right back to the head goes Vasquez.
16:3955 seconds remaining in this fight.
16:42Vasquez doing a good job of blocking these shots as well.
16:44She's keeping it quite tight, the arms down,
16:46tight on the body.
16:47Even though Persona's throwing those shots,
16:49she's blocking them, or at least partially blocking them.
16:53Now she's gonna come back with her own.
16:56Nice combo from Persona.
16:57Went two to the body, came back up to the head.
16:59It worked beautifully.
17:00Here's the uppercut again with the right hand from Persona.
17:06On the right hand.
17:07Nearing the hips now of Persona as Vasquez
17:10trying to cut the ring, final stages of this fight.
17:16Vasquez coming forward once more.
17:18Literally dipping her head into the gloves
17:20of Augustina Vasquez.
17:21Sabrina Persona to throw to the body.
17:23Good turn right back from Vasquez.
17:24Nice defense, Persona.
17:26She made her miss about four shots in a row.
17:2810 second cracker and they're going all out.
17:32The bell.
17:33That is the end of the fight.
17:35What a fight.
17:37Great fight.
17:41Fantastic, Disney.
17:43Both women obviously really enjoyed that.
