Tony Yoka (11-2, 9 KO) entered the ring as a hefty favorite against Carlos Takam (40-7-1, 28 KO): younger, higher, rangier and fighting in front of his home crowd. But this crowd also arrived in the price – the pressure on Yoka, which needed a lot of win after the dominance of Martin Bakole in his previous fight.
Despite this, the prospect of losing Yoki with a 42-year-old veteran opponent seemed unlikely on paper.
The dominant presentation of Yok was expected, so the surprise of the Parisian crowd was actual, because the fight turned into the total opposite of what they came.
The valid stab of the Olympic medalist Yoka turned out to be completely ineffective against Takam, who was constantly next to him and got into work on the body and intake of close range power.
Amazingly, the pace of the fight was dictated by the warrior 12 years older than his opponent. With the trust of Yoki, which he apparently shot, Takam was able to bring all his experience to make him a bad night for a home warrior.
With Takam, who received free work to work in the scope he wanted, Yoka was bloody and on the back foot in the last round. He needed a knockout, but it was almost no longer, and Takam was not uncertain on the way to victory in the decision.
The only sour note for Takam was his restless expectation when the results cards were read: two judges had it for him, but others fought for Yoka in some way, which caused a fractional decision to win, not unanimous.
This is a catastrophic result for Yoka, which falls to 0-2 in its last two trips with bad performances in both.
“Super” Dan Azeez (19-0, 13 KO) is the up-to-date champion of the European hefty delicate weight after winning in the final round over the former European champion Thomas Faure (21-5-1, 2 KO) in Paris.
Azeez is now the only warrior with delicate water who won subsequent English, British, communities and European titles. Enduring progress was an open part of Azeez’s plan to take part in the world championships.
“I climb the ladder step by step. British, communities of nations, European, and now it’s the world [title next,]Azeez said, who celebrated the addition of the European heavyweight European championships to his collection.
Faure entered the eight undefeated series in battle and put on a thrilling performance, but he was unable to stop Azeez gradually collecting him and take control of the meeting.
The last round occurred when the Faure-who was stuck in the previous round and more and more often on the defensive since bleeding in seventh place-she came to Azeez, which made him overwhelmed.
Returning to the fight, Faure stepped forward to enter another fleshy right hand that he couldn’t see, as he couldn’t answer.
The judge, who was already looking close, jumped to wave the fight and save the faure from the inevitable finish by Azeez.
Price vs mannes
Lauren Price MBE (3-0, 1 KO) maintained its excellent professional record when it increased to 3-0 with the dominant victorious decision over the German rival Naomi Mannes (6-2, 4 KO), and all three judges gave all eight rounds to Prices for unanimous winning.
For the first time, the price went on eight rounds and did a good training for her during the third professional trip.
“I felt good there for eight rounds. I thought that I used a stab very well – Price said, adding that she traveled abroad in her professional career because “she wanted to get out … The first one is outdoor for 2023.”
“Of course, there are still things to work, but she is a tough girl, and I caught her with good shots. I felt more comfortable when the rounds lasted. I felt really good in the sixth and seventh place. I liked it. “
The combination of Southpaw speed and attitudes makes it a arduous proposition for every orthodox opponent.
Mannes could not get closer to Welsh lightning, and her only successes come on the way from time to landing, usually after a few shots from the price in return.
Saad vs McGowan
The television card opened with a disappointing result for Manchester Man Macaulay McGowan (17-3-2, 3 KO).
Apparently, he went to the house of warrior Farrhad “Professor” SAAD (8-0-2) in eight rounds, only so that two judges announce a draw of the fight, and the remaining judge with a results card in favor of Saad.
After the announcement of most of the drawing drawing, he remained shrugging with his arms such as the assessment, which is too often for fighters who distance from the city’s family’s favorite.
“To get most of the draw? I thought I won it. I think everyone at home thought I won it. I think the crowd thought I won it. It is as it is. What can you do? ” He said.
“He didn’t really land tidy – and if so, I landed tidy. I turned his head!
The only really dominant ruin Saada was the last round of the fight, in which he shot harmful shots, which had a clear effect.
Most of the previous rounds seemed clearly in favor of McGowans, and Saad – who also had to stay twice to talk to the judge to employ the head and elbow – apparently on the right track to the loss of their undefeated album, before the judges provided their controversial decision.
Today’s four-person television-transparency TV Card with the French promotion of the All Star Promotions-imitated only live and only in Great Britain and Ireland in Sky Sports, with the broadcaster of Continental Canal+ transporting it to European households.
