00:00In a 4-hour contest, give yourself a tickle or two, touch your nose, feel good, good luck lads.
00:23Seconds out, round one.
00:25So it's a pro debut, and seemingly a very anticipated one from over 300 fans.
00:32He's sold a lot of tickets, Hasnain Ali, from Leighton.
00:37His trainer, Umair Ali, says that every other shop on Leighton High Street's got a poster of him.
00:43Leighton replaced him, Tommy Sams walks in with a left hand!
00:47Tommy Sams has come to fight and come to win!
00:523-0!
00:54And Ali caught with another left hand and Ali looks stabbing and stunned!
00:58And the referee has to look at this surely!
01:02Ali's legs just aren't there!
01:05Referee finally stops him!
01:07There is silence, stunned silence here!
01:11As Hasnain Ali is beaten, is stopped by Tommy Sams, the late replacement, on debut!
01:21And suddenly, you can hear a pin drop, here in York Hall.
01:26He's got to look back at the tape and go, why did I do that?
01:32He gets the opponent on the ropes and he squares his feet up, really close to the target,
01:37when he's swinging and gets caught with a shot flush.
01:40And now he's dipped his legs and then, all he had to do there is cover up, he didn't cover up.
01:46This is the very end, we don't see the start of it.
01:49He's already in trouble at this point, already on his shaky legs, look at that!
01:53Accuracy in the work there, the referee's spot on there.
01:56He doesn't know where he is.
02:00He's got a whack of tickets here, he's absolutely packed with his support.
02:04But not everyone gets the debut they want,
02:08they've seen some great fighters who've lost their debuts and come back to be fantastic fighters,
02:12so he'll have some solace in that, but he made a mistake, first of all.
02:16That's what he'll be upset about.
02:18But a great finish, really great finish and a great result there.
02:21And let's just be clear as well, he's getting oxygen in the corner,
02:24his fans are watching on with concern.
02:26It's a great win for Kevin Burton and Tommy Sams, he looks okay at the moment,
02:30he looks like he's obviously stunned and shocked.
02:35Sams watches on with concern, the Diamond only got the call last night for this fight.
02:41Turned pro in 2019, a couple of wins, then five years off, came back in August,
02:46gets a chance that he didn't know about yesterday,
02:49to fight on terrestrial television and wins like that.
02:53Just madness, isn't it? You're going about your day,
02:56the next day they're saying get down to the room,
02:58you're boxing live on Channel 5, and then he does that.
03:01I mean, to be honest, I think Ali gifted his chin to him at some point,
03:06but then after that, he barely missed with a shot, you've got to be honest.
03:09Fantastic finish.
03:12Yeah, and the referee did step in, I think one or two might think,
03:16if it hadn't been a talked about prospect, he might have stepped in earlier,
03:19because Ali looked out on his feet, but in the end he did step in.
03:27We will make it official in just a moment.
03:32Thankfully, Hasdan Ali's okay, that's the main thing in this game.
03:36Of course, he's got his fans there, and he will come again.
03:40And they, of course, are desperately disappointed,
03:43but it is the hardest game of all, and Hasdan Ali makes his way
03:47back to those dressing rooms, he'll be checked out again,
03:50he won't be in the ring for the announcement.
03:53Of course, the fighters' safety is absolutely paramount,
03:57and they will have to go and rethink.
03:59And Tommy Samson, we're going to hear from in a moment,
04:01very sportingly applauding Hasdan Ali,
04:03but let's make it official now with Paul.
04:07So the Cruiserweight contest comes to an end.
04:11At 40 seconds of round number one,
04:14referee Sean McAvoy has stopped the bout.
04:17In his opinion, Hasdan Ali is in no position to continue.
04:23The winner, still undefeated as a professional boxer,
04:26the Diamond, Tommy Sam!
04:32Well, he didn't come to lay down, did he?
04:34He came to win, and he did win.
04:36We will hear from Tommy Sam, the hero, certainly.
