Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the world-ranked featherweight contender,
the undefeated Mark Magsayo Magnifico!
Please welcome the world-ranked contender,
introducing Julio Poyito Ceja!
Mark Magsayo was an undefeated Filipino rising star
mentored by legendary trainer Freddie Roach
and promoted by Manny Pacquiao's MP Promotions.
He was being groomed as the next big Filipino boxing star
after Pacquiao and Nonito Donaire.
And there's a beautiful combination there from Magsayo!
Non-stop! That had to be a 9-to-10 punch combo!
With the fight taking place on the Pacquiao vs. Ugaz undercard,
it had massive attention, especially from Filipino fans
who saw Magsayo as the country's next boxing star.
Oh, boy.
Shaky right away. Ceja will try to survive.
Now, long way to go in round number one.
And look for Magsayo. Go to work!
Well, he's loving it because Pacquiao signed Magsayo to his stable.
So, this is, you know, Pacquiao's his...
Yeah, Ceja would like to be nose-to-nose with him,
not on the end of those long punches from Magsayo.
The main thing for Ceja and Ismael Salas is get out of this round.
Let's clear your head.
Man, he just has lots of skills on the inside.
Final 30 seconds of round number one.
Magsayo is just explosive, Joe.
That hook in the uppercut stunned us.
And if I were talking to Ceja in the corner, I'd tell him...
Oh, he got off with a lead hook there as well.
We're gonna take a quick look at this hook from round one.
So, you look at the extension of Ceja's arms.
You never do that.
All right, this is probably...
There's that same hook right there.
You saw Ceja jabbing, but he extended.
He was expecting to parry, but he didn't.
He hooked around it.
So, you know, sometimes you jab and parry at the same time.
I think the fighter needs that when they have a rough round like that,
and he gave you some good instructions.
Nice job.
If it's not okay, this is okay.
Right.
And then he has a special, like, sixth gear that he throws in.
Now, without getting clipped, he's keeping his hands up good.
And he's fought some great guys, and we can overpower them.
He was outlanding him.
Oh, without a doubt.
Outlanding him.
Outboxes him.
This is where another body shot that was a little low.
Maxayo says so as well.
He's throwing it into another gear now.
There's that sixth gear, but that's a nice right hand by Ceja.
Sure was.
Landed there.
Nice combination.
Short, compact puncher.
Tries the right hand lead.
Now a right hand to the body.
Sometimes you don't see this type of power, this weight class.
Ceja already down in round number one.
Over 200 amateur bouts.
And again, many Pacquiaos will get into round number three.
So, an inspirational rise by Maxayo to get the extreme physicality
to have these weapons that he has in the ring right now at the world class level.
You know, a guy like Maxayo doesn't really have to do this.
So, Maxayo's the guy who had something to prove.
So, that first round knockdown really had to do an enormous amount for Maxayo's confidence.
Went to my head and my body.
Nobody saw that except you and me, Brian.
It's a linger shot.
Look at this combination.
Little five punch action from Maxayo.
Now he's in the corner.
Trying to move his head, get out of the way of Ceja.
Ceja now with his chance.
Plenty of time left in this round.
You know, he's really good at using his body as a defensive mechanism.
Does it there too.
Lands with a hook.
Blocked one shot.
Lands as well.
And Freddie Roach head to head.
Maxayo and Ceja.
Knockdown in round number one by Maxayo with a...
Yeah, in Ceja's last fight, he missed weight by four and a half pounds.
The way he throws the combinations, Joe.
Yeah.
Sometimes you can get hit with that same punch and it won't do anything.
And then maybe the mixed back, the ones you don't see that really do the damage.
Hurt you or put you down.
Almost like seeing fastballs and you gotta get the timing.
But in that first round.
Number four.
Good fight so far.
Maxayo showing the class.
Good liver shot by Ceja.
You know, sixth, seventh, eighth round.
If he can not get flipped like that.
Look at this.
Maxayo lighting him up.
Well, they're both given and taken as the old saying goes.
There's a lot of give and take here.
Look at that.
Nice little...
He ripped off on the side of the liver, which really does the damage.
Good uppercut that landed by Ceja.
That picked up the head of Maxayo.
Maxayo fires back now.
A lot of spirit this year.
November 6th, they are saying.
Reported.
Round five here.
Can't wait for that one.
Oh, yeah.
Mark Maxayo.
A quick left hook by Maxayo.
Boy, I tell you.
If you don't have those hands up, he's gonna clip you.
It comes out.
Yeah.
He gave him a little taste of his own medicine, Ceja.
Right.
By the way, those don't feel good, Mark.
Right.
You can tell who the bigger man is in the ring.
There's no doubt about it.
And in that last fight against Brandon Figueroa,
5'7", 6'6", on the three cards,
just a barn burger of a fight.
You know, in all fairness, Ceja's 28 now.
You know, every couple of years,
you tend to gain a few more pounds.
Maxayo's kind of breathing hard right now.
Yeah.
His mouth is open, and I'm telling you,
this is what I was talking about with those body shots.
Ceja knows what he's doing now.
There's something wrong with Maxayo.
He'll fight back,
but Ceja's got him on the run with those body shots.
Tries to protect his body as well.
He's got both arms planted on his sides.
Like I said, it's a 12-round fight.
We're only in the fifth round.
Maxayo is buckled up.
Oh!
And now he goes down.
Never count a guy out.
Six, seven, eight, okay?
He's hurt.
Withering body shots from Julio Ceja breaks him down.
Second knockdown of the fight.
Both men have won.
Look at that left hook to the chops
that he caught Maxayo with.
That put him down.
But that wasn't before.
He was landing tons of body shots.
There's that right uppercut, left hook.
That set him down.
So it started off with the right uppercut.
The last time we saw you,
you had hurt your hand.
How is it?
Everything's good with the hands,
and I'm just ready for November.
We are certainly looking forward to it.
Thank you so much for stopping by
and taking the time.
We'll get back to the action here in the ring, guys.
Number one in the world, Canelo Alvarez,
against Caleb Plant.
I wonder, Joe Goosen, can Maxayo recover?
Because his body seems to be...
And no matter how you're feeling,
you still gotta fight back hard.
You never give up.
And...
Maxayo firing back.
Each man with a knockdown.
Ceja's using that great trick.
It's that number defensively.
He's protecting himself much better now
than that first couple rounds.
Keeping the hands up good.
Finish up with that hook at the end of a three-punch combination.
Maxayo fires back.
There's a lot of...
And the power of that first round, true.
They can fight right now, 56-56.
They both have a knockdown defeat.
Larry, interesting,
because you're giving Ceja rounds 3, 5, and 6.
Obviously, with the knockdown, you do.
But Ceja was already, Joe,
marching around, firing off these beautiful shots, right?
And here's Julio Ceja acting as the gatekeeper.
You must go through me.
He's a dangerous man.
And this is a test of his will.
Ceja put his hands up.
He had his hands down.
And he got hit with the clip with the right hand
that started off that little...
Excellent action.
And we're gonna go upstairs right after this.
Maxayo, again, not reacting well.
Let's go back.
Exchanging with Ceja on the inside.
When Ceja gets there, he's wrapping him up.
Because he doesn't want any part of that inside game right now.
Look at that.
Touch to the head,
and then that solo plex shot with that left hand.
And both hands, too, Joe.
Landed with the right hand and the left hand.
No, exactly.
And he's fought some of the best.
Good right hand by Maxayo right there.
And then not letting Ceja score on the inside by tying him up.
So he's coming up short.
He's able to touch him there.
Marc Maxayo, Julio Ceja.
We've got Robert Guerrero coming up next
against Victor Ortiz.
Marc Maxayo with a knockdown in round one off a hook.
Julio Ceja should be close on the scorecards.
Maxayo sticking to that forcing him to fight,
keeping him on the ropes,
and not letting him off the ropes.
You don't have to stop the men.
You don't have to break them.
Let them fight out.
They do a good right hand by Ceja.
Yeah.
Frank Martin.
Yeah.
Wow.
It's been a long day, but it really has.
Frank Martin is out of Indianapolis, Detroit.
He's 14-0.
Got a win over the very game.
Going off his strategy pretty well.
He wanted to tee off there with a hook,
and Ceja just poleaxed him on the way out.
Maxayo now back in the corner trying to jab his way out.
Good right hand by Ceja.
All this leading up to the main event.
Once again, the return of the living legend,
Danny Pacquiao.
They have to be an inch behind.
So they may chastise and say,
you know what, just pull that back.
Reeling.
Julio Ceja.
Now Maxayo jumps back in.
And now with some renewed vigor,
firing off right foot shots.
I think by boxing the past few rounds,
not taking a lot of...
Oh!
Down he goes!
It's over.
This fight is over.
That's it.
Wow.
Whoa.
And a backflip successfully by Maxayo
as Ceja, after making his start.
Wow.
He is the winner by way of knockout.
He is still undefeated.
He is the winner of the WBC Featherweight World Title Eliminator
and the new WBO International Featherweight Champion,
Mark Magnifico Maxayo.
