00:00Boxers, listen to me at all times, watch your heads, no low blows, when I say break, step back, protect yourselves at all times, touch gloves, thank you.
00:30But now the focus on Tom Welland, Atomic Tom, 5-0 coming into this, and he has craved this kind of challenge, a fighter who is going to come forward and throw, just like that Barry Jones.
01:00Give him a little bit more punch than he hasn't seen before, unless he can beat me in the box, he has the ability to do that, so if he can do that tonight, that's a real statement.
01:31Another real knockout artist, he is tough, and he is a challenge for Tom Welland, who we should remember is still only 20 years of age.
01:41Martinez there with a little step back, and just a clip of left hook there from Welland.
01:49Keep that sharpness, especially when Martinez attacks there, you've got to make sure he takes his feet out, like he did just then.
01:57Sharp right hand there from Martinez, interesting to see Welland using that jab to the body.
02:02Big swinging hooks from the man from Managua in Nicaragua.
02:11See for Welland, it's about getting that balance right, about trying to be aggressive like he is, but without taking too many shots, you've got to keep moving that head or keep constantly adjusting the feet.
02:22Or, take a step on the outside.
02:25A right hook landed there from Martinez.
02:27Welland wanted this, wanted the challenge, wanted this little step up.
02:34Learning all the time.
02:40He's going to bend the legs and jump to that body, then throw that right hand over the top there Welland.
02:46Martinez closing the gap again.
02:49And with it, you stay low and then deliver that right hand as a looping shot over the top of that lower left hand there from Martinez.
02:57Martinez again, right hook to the body that time, having these little moments of success in this opening round.
03:02Tom Welland with a little step back, and just a clip of left hook there from Martinez.
03:07Keep that sharpness, especially when Martinez attacks there, you've got to make sure he takes his feet out, like he did just then.
03:13Keep that sharpness, especially when Martinez attacks there, you've got to keep moving that head or keep constantly adjusting the feet.
03:18His hands full here, falls short with that right hand.
03:21Footwork there from Martinez, skipping all the distance.
03:36Well, Tom Welland with a real challenge here after a very, very close opening round, Barry.
03:42Well, this is what you need though, you know, to have a bit of success.
03:45Someone fires back so when you can't relax.
03:47I say it all the time, what you do after the punch is almost as important as the punch itself.
03:51And I think that was everything in that round.
03:56So round two, remember, of a schedule four and over four.
04:00Can't make too many mistakes against the real live wire of an opponent here.
04:06Welland again, dipping the legs, this time throwing that jab to the body that Barry wanted, and then jab to the head.
04:11Mixing it up beautifully there at the start of this second round.
04:15A little feint with the feet there from Welland before he let that jab go.
04:18So you've got to try and disguise your work a little bit more.
04:21That lean back's no good for him.
04:23Martinez gets an extra inch or two on that right hand when he throws it.
04:26Just brings that right foot forward just a little bit, and that's where Welland's getting caught up with that lean back.
04:34Sometimes the safest place is to come close, actually.
04:38Well, Martinez missing with a huge scything right hand, and Welland made him pay with a left hook, and now makes him take a backward step.
04:47Just hold the feet there, throw the shots and roll.
04:50Don't take the step back, roll underneath.
04:53Good work to body and head again from Welland.
04:56Just starting to find his mojo here in round two.
04:59A speculative left hook that landed.
05:03When you do that, when you skip back and look to pivot, a good shot there from Welland.
05:07When you look back and then pivot, there's got to be a sharp movement otherwise.
05:10And you see there, Martinez can throw that shot.
05:12Oh, right hand! Left hook right hand from Welland!
05:16Martinez down! He walked in a fight!
05:20Welland's got it!
05:22Welland's got it!
05:24Welland's got it!
05:26Martinez down! He walked in a fight so he'd come to him.
05:30And that's why!
05:34Martinez, OK to continue.
05:36ADP had a long look there.
05:39But Welland with a sense of victory in his nostrils.
05:42A dramatic stoppage on terrestial television.
05:45In front of him, left to the body from Welland!
05:48Another combination, left hook to the hand.
05:51MartÃnez to the ear, Amy Pugh has a warm look here
05:55Welland explodes into life
05:58Live here on Channel 5 is MartÃnez
06:01gonna be able to continue
06:05Amy Pugh lets him
06:0650 seconds to go in the round
06:08here comes Welland again
06:10a nightmare for Darwin MartÃnez
06:13Welland with another long right hand
06:17pounding in his punches now
06:19MartÃnez on shaky legs
06:22surely another left hook will do it
06:24surely it's over
06:27that's what all the fuss is about
06:31Tom Welland under pressure in the first
06:35simply stunning in the second
06:38that barrage of punches there for what was it?
06:4035 seconds
06:42was absolutely fantastic
06:44for a 20 year old
06:46to have the accuracy and the composure
06:48when you hurt a guy
06:49the first reaction is to go and rush him
06:51and rush your work and make mistakes
06:53and even if you land it and you get to stop it
06:55it's quite often untidy
06:57that was clinical from there from Tom Welland
06:59absolutely beautiful work
07:03nerves on your live debut on Terrestrial TV
07:07of course not
07:10just seeing there that's not the finish
07:11he was already, I think he was already cooked at that point there
07:14MartÃnez under trouble there
07:15should have not, just a little bit left hook
07:17just moves the body over to the shot there
07:19and the referee rightly calls it off
07:21but the combination, the barrage before that
07:24he sat with a knock down there
07:25with a left hook right hand
07:27really cut, if he had a little step back
07:29again that's the final finish that he could
07:31before that, the punches
07:33before that little flurry
07:34they were the ones that did all the damage
07:39relentless, remorseless
07:42Romford
07:44reduces Tom Welland
07:47and what lies in front of him I wonder
07:50when you get the maximum exposure on you
07:53you've got to perform to your best
07:55you've got to show something different to what people are seeing
07:58and I think he did that tonight, Tom Welland
08:00he showed something different to a young man
08:01who, listen, he could get hit
08:04but look how good he is
08:05look at the finishing skills
08:07look at the composure for a young man
08:08the power that he has already
08:10he's only going to get stronger and fitter and better
08:13and let's remember he turned 20 on August the 18th
08:17this is fight number 6
08:19and he just brushes off
08:22the challenges, brushes off the pressure
08:24Martinez still just being looked at
08:26on his stool, being given time
08:28and that's right of course
08:30because he took some serious punishment there
08:34and Tom Welland looks cool as you like
08:38nice hug there from Lee Eaton
08:40very excited about his prospect Tom Welland of course
08:44and nice moment there from Tom
