right here this is like man you want to touch clubs do it now God bless Diego Pacho you can hear the Ovation that he received here in Southern California Gabe you mentioned it he's got a a big entourage a lot of people around him they're all counting on him to come through tonight but it'll be very difficult against a man who's nicknamed God's Gift that's what his first name Ma means as sulei has only been beaten by Daniel Jacobs and Demetrius Andre he's never been stopped here we go our main event PCO in the purple sui in the white and [Applause] red and you see SEI right away already trying to close that distance significant height and a massive reach advantage in favor of Diego P his team says they want to use faints and they want to get inside and make this a fight in the phone Boo and this what I wanted to see from celeski start off fast put up put pressure go to the P he try to Loop the shots of the Ranger taller Pacho yeah you know I think Cel is walking him down like this cuz he wants Pacho to make a mistake you know get excited throw something big and see if he can counter daab you foughty 5 years ago he started out great against you but you had an amazing comeback what's the key for Diego in these early rounds to avoid what happened to you you know the key is is to establish that jab keep that keep that Lee hand up and watch out for that sneaky right hand the select he [Applause] has pko says that he wants the you like that jab foot angle more the body movement they want to work on a lot of stuff that they're going to need on the championship level we're seeing a little bit a little bit of that now on the back foot letting suleski come to him trying to set him up with that long rangey rideit right hand Pacho has been training in Seattle working out with Jose benitz and David benitz that's pretty good [Music] [Applause] scaring know P's doing exactly what I think he should do is just stay patient stay on the back foot jab jab jab I haven't se no body shots from Pacho I would think that he would be zeroing in on the body of seski so seski was dropped in his last fight by Rody Montgomery with a right hook yeah squeaked out a decision wi did sui in that fight against the a journeyman that could have been a career Ender a disastrous loss but he did Prevail it's a nice jab right there by Diego yeah that's how you got to soften up sule you know you got to soften up with that jab don't let him get comfortable coming in breaking that distance so easy make him pay for it not only that but you can lure him lure him in with a with a straight right hand afterwards P has a laser likee right hand he Heights it well behind that long jab and that's a good jab that Diego's throwing but he's dropping the hand low and sel's best punch is the right hand so you want to keep that you want to keep that lead hand up you don't want to drop it got to stop at the Bell gentlemen good left fromi you had a he's had a very good opening round a few left hooks around the guard [Applause] [Music] [Music] forget about the head dear body okay keep slipping keep slipping you're going to get him you're going to get him people going to be quiet after this okay good baby good [Applause] round you know Sergio you talk about the left hook that sui was landing and this is what I brought up during the fighter meetings with the training staff of sui because that Keras fight koser's best punch in that fight was a looping left hook that P for whatever reason wasn't able to get away from and his team kind of smiled at me say you know that's the shot we're going to be looking for tonight too you know what manx you were talking about ceras earlier and that P was getting hit by kerz I actually thought dieo P had a great performance against the thir whenever you're stepping up and whenever you're that aggressive you're going to get hit with p p responded well to getting hit with those shots and still close the show getting The Knockout I guess the question is do you consider ceris that big a step up I I I didn't and you know I thought he got hit too much for fighting a guy on that level when you're that aggressive and that power seeking that knockout and power punch him you're going to get hit and yes it was a step up not a big one but it was in the right direction and so is this this fight with SEI as well yeah Peko has called sui his toughest opponent boy uh sui is fighting like it gab he's off to a hot yeah you know seli is targeting the midsection of Pacho he's throwing the straight right hand and the right hook a few times and it's landed about four times in this round already and that and that kind of shot can open up a big left hook up top you know I understand the disciplined approach that Diego PCO is taking there is a part of me guys though that would like to see him sell out a little bit you go back to that fight against no back that fight against Demetrius Andre what did Andre do in the first round against select he completely sold out and let his hands go and knocked him down in that first round I think overwhelming seli might have there might be some Merit to that strategy I don't think I don't think selling out is smart in the first two rounds Chris I think he will sell out after the fourth fifth round once he gets in the middle middle rounds I mean that's how I see this fight going and and the difference when when uh Andrade did that Andrade is already an experienced veteran where Pacho is still learning he's still young and he's developing he doesn't have that experience that um Andre had starting to find a home though with that right hand yes he is I would love to see him just throw a straight straight right hand down the pipe without the jab surprise seli without it there's a right hand that backed him up poo said it was going to be more of a slow burn in this fight during the interviews he said uh I hope he takes me into deep Waters but I'm going to start slow be a little cautious going to pick up my pace and I think I stop him in the mid to late [Applause] rounds fori he he only knows one way and that's the way he's fighting right now for a 6'4 fighter to stab the body of a shorter fighter that's impressive you know you have to bend down and be responsible by doing that but that that's going to set up straight right hands later on as well that jab right right there just shook seli up good right hook by P with that SEL as well we going to leave it the same way same way keep hitting this way but now when you start getting the shots here now you're going to start throwing the hooks you get here start throwing the hooks all right but the same way keep keep that defense nice and high block slip slip and the shot here and the stomach for now later on we're going to pick it up a little more but for now that's what I want all right black slip slip the job got to stay busy arms and body later we pick it up okay he's nervous you can tell he's nervous you know what I'm saying how you feel good more Jabs more Jabs beautiful two rounds a little more active so we could remember we're in California California little more more Jabs out of celeski that's what they want more Jabs aim at the shoulders and the body forget and ignore the head right now chop down the tree slowly is what they want Sergio when you are the taller fighter that's a slip taller fighter do you want to stay big I know earlier you mentioned he needs to drop down to land punches you want to alternate Todd you don't want to stay tall too long cuz you will get time you also want to get a little bit low you want to bend your knees and fight low good right hand there for seli who's pushing forward and he's looked better than I think a lot of people thought he would so far against P yeah he's starting off good and one thing that his Corner told him is keep touching the body keep touching the body and then finish with a hook up top so let's look out for that [Applause] [Music] shot you know one thing about seli when I fought him is he has like this jerky style where he's like he faints he faints and then next thing you know he throws a shot so you know that that that movement you never know when he's going to throw and he's really quick with the right hand it's it's so contrasting to P's style who just minimum movement he looks so calm in there yeah you see like what's see look at that movement his hands are movement his head is movement side to side it's like you know he's never St still he's never a Target he got big punch from P best of the fight yeah he's stuck snuck in a right hand before that too that right hand starting to become a pretty good weapon oh oh there's that catch and counter they wanted from sui catch and come with the same side he just doesn't have that one punch power does he G seli it's just a it's not that he has power it's just that sneaky shot and the shot That You Don't See coming is the shot that gets you [Applause] oh big right seski opened up and that might have been a mistake yeah he felt that seki felt that he felt it but he took it well he took that shot right right right on top of that [Applause] head see this outside game I don't think it's going to do so well for celeski as the round goes on I think saki is better off in the inside taking away the range from the [Applause] [Music] see this is where seli wants to be backing die go up to the rope and applying the pressure we are at the warrs in California this venue is known for having some Blockbuster main events going to stop of the Bell [Applause] no out of there two big right Hands by Pacho both of them with different timing one of them was long a little bit the other one was a little bit mid wimbley edition of Riad season Anthony Joshua and a suddenly resurgent Daniel du who looked Sensational in his last fight against and all and of course before that he stopped round the guard he he should be concentrating on the straight shots because if he if he goes around the guard he's going to give a chance for sui to catch en counter like they want him to pcho though seemed to start building momentum there in the third of his experience of his toughness of his strength you're not going to just go out there no matter how hard you punch you got to break him down and you got to do it with the with Jabs and movement and that's what P's doing power different torque and then surprise him with a straight right hand sneaky uppercut on the inside almost catching him with that uppercut nothing sneaky about that that was a clean uppercut on the inside and he's not throwing combinations gab and he's not setting the punches up it's one and done but you know what I think I think the one punch you know him jabbing jabbing and throwing that one you take what's given that's why they call him the snake the r snake circuit work big right hand from again and that right hand is landing flush because the lead hand of seli he's starting to drop that lead hand and he's getting caught clean by P SEI still punching in between the shots look P's going to have his hands full man I can see it already he's going to slowly break him down but it's not going to be easy like I expected is a strong puncher a smart strong puncher and he's been hurt a few times he's been hurt by Me by andr but he recovers fast yes he does resilient and he has a hard hard head he must have a hard head because he gets hit with C shots oh Big Shot landed fori and Pacha went off balance for a second but now he gets one [Applause] back and a KN of approval for both of these Fighters got to take him a little deeper into the rounds you got the experience you got to take one letter in the rounds then we're going to take them all right but beautiful beautiful work give him a little bit of [Music] water yeah when it's slipping you don't stop like that cuz they going hit you you know what I'm saying pay attention it's slippery hey right he Diego's Just Landing flush with that straight right hand and that right hand money this whole round right here hook SEL you know he throws a right hand it was really nothing on that shot second thank you all right pay attention huh great fight [Music] guys round five thecho starting to open up more than he did in the early rounds just as he said he would yeah now now you could expect them to take a little bit more chances and sell out as you said Chris now now this is the time to do it in the middle rounds let's take a look at Chris mx's scorecard through four yeah I've got three rounds to one in favor of Diego peo I thought seli squeezed out that first round but since then it's been that right hand of Diego Pacho as a major weapon in this fight Landing it clean 3-1 Diego p and if Diego's able to back seli up it's better for him seli doesn't fight well off the back [Applause] foot Sergio I believe your official pick on to Zone earlier this week was a six round stoppage for Pacho you still feel comfortable that'll happen I I I think he catch him with that right hand pretty soon yeah six or seven rounds I can see that [Applause] [Music] happening but I'm impressed with seli I really am not only with his toughness his grip but it's game plan and the way he's taking those shots that was beautiful he's got a game plan Sergio but it's reminding me now a little bit of Miguel Maraga in the last fight where exper in can help you survive but I don't know if it's going to help you win well P's Landing some I mean excuse me sel's Landing some flush shots but he just doesn't have the same pop that peo does you know P's Landing that big right hand I like to see him follow up with a big left hook a little more body work too I don't think we've seen much of any body shots p no we haven't I would think that's exactly what he would go for considering select was down in his last fight with a a right hand to the body seli got that Lee hand down and he's getting hit flush with the right hand he needs to keep that guard [Applause] up nice right uppercut it got caught that was a good shot nice little flurry here buckled the knees and we might have Su Lucky in some real trouble here in Carson California beautiful right hand right there so luy ate that [Applause] up hey maybe the sixth round is the [Applause] [Music] round yeah we're close now we're close to the end but don't get over confident now breathe he's hurt you got him hurt don't drop your hands though be responsible breathe breathe [Applause] breathe and there's that right uppercut leaning for a tough fighter leaning hiding behind those big shoulders coming with that right uppercut Rock select in and going around the guard with the right hook this is not just a straight right hand puncher with a ones and twos he goes around the guard looks for the body shots and they're going over the top with the looping long [Applause] shot well a lot of guy they put him down but no one has been able to stop him can Pacho be the first what it was good advice by Benitas he said don't get overconfident cuz that's when you make the mistake with seli you get overconfidence and he can throw something and hurt you stay sharp now I love the I've Loved what I've been hearing from Benitas in the corner he's been saying everything right and P's been following everything to a to a te P's landed 10 more power punches and thrown much less 30 less the only thing I would like to see more from p is just body shots other than that I mean it's it's it's a it's a solid performance right now that I'm enjoying there's the body shot right time to deliver I don't know if he's going to make it up he's not getting up he is not getting up it is over Diego Pacho back on The Knockout train as he picks up the 18th of his Sensational young [Applause] career and seli is still down on the ground that body shot hurt Sergio called it round six knockout winner for p absolutely what a performance the crowd loved it everyone on their feet Deo p is back you know SEL didn't expect that body shot cuz Diego kept Landing that right hand up the top constantly constantly and that left fo to the liver man that's the win and get [Music] you and you can see the disappointment and Saki right there throwing his mouthpiece in disgust knowing he was in this fight knowing he had he had what he wanted to protect them but that body shot was just way too much you know Sergio we were watching a kickboxing highlight earlier today when a guy took a liver shot and you had a great line you said that body shots make cowards of us all absolutely because a liver doesn't forget pain man that right there reminds you of every time you've been hit in sparring in fights and remembers and you're out e e e you know man pko started off well started smart jab and Jab and once once he establish that jab then the big right hand start coming behind it Sergio ask for the a body punch and as he asked he got it that was a wrap let's make it official with David Damon ladies and gentlemen referee Ray Corona calls a halt to this contest the official time of the stoppage 54 seconds of round number six declaring your winner by knockout from South Central Los Angeles California he's still the WBC USA and WBO International Super middleweight champion [Music] [Applause]
