Abdullah Mason (USA) vs Carlos Ornelas (Mexico) - KNOCKOUT, BOXING HD

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the battle-tested southpaw, introducing Carlos Chinito Ornella! Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the battle-ready, WBC number seven, world-ranked lightweight, the undefeated, Abdullah Mason! Heading into the bout, Abdullah Mason was one of the brightest young prospects in the lightweight division, combining speed, power, and composure beyond his years. Undefeated with a high knockout rate, he was steadily stepping up the level of competition. Against the more experienced Ornellas, Mason aimed to prove he could dominate seasoned opposition as well. Abdullah Mason has a knack for the dramatic. He left Bernardo Sung alongside Timothy Bradley, the International Boxing Hall of Famer, and Mark Creagle. But that's what Ornellas is doing. He wants to try to take good defense right there. 16-month layoff you were mentioning for Carlos Ornellas, but nonetheless, he's looking pretty good here early on. That's going to allow Abdullah to time it. You know, Mason turning 21 today. Happy birthday, Abdullah Mason. But he's taking his time early on here in this first scheduled 10th rounder. After that left hand right there, and he looks to close the distance, but Ornellas is doing a good job in maintaining his positioning, right? And trying to time him on his way in. Oh, that uppercut just says that it's working in the head of Carlos Ornellas here early on. And I see that, nice left there. I see that Abdullah feels kind of tight. That's the reason why he shook those arms. Again, Ornellas has experience in what he's in Abdullah reach. Almost caught him out there in space. And again, it could be the fact that he's facing another fellow softball, so he's not going to be the softball with the right hand. And that's where he lands. And then a left hook from Abdullah Mason. But you see the reaction right here. And this is now Abdullah going to work downstairs. Ornellas now a little bit more gun shy as he tries to land the overhand left. Abdullah listened to his dad and kept his phone. Nice uppercut there from Abdullah. But again, everything hard. Talking about 2020, 2021. So, he knows how to be durable in it. Yeah, and he knows how to stay low as well. Stand low. You know, you can be very elusive. Stand low. Again, you can avoid a lot of shots. A smart reaction. From Carlos Ornellas. Let's see what Abdullah Mason does here. He's got his opponent in trouble. The battle of southpaws. And Ornellas says, I'm going downstairs. The punch caused a cut on the eyelid. And you see he bought himself some time. Abdullah backed up. Bagged up. He felt that heat coming. Stepping forward. Closing the distance right there. Boom. Beautiful shot. Perfectly timed right there. He made it miss and then he made him pay. There it is. He knew that left hand was going to come. No, he didn't have. You're funny. No, you know what? That was actually a smart thing to do. Yeah. You know, he felt that his head was kind of. Now against the 21-year-old Abdullah Mason. Newly minted adult. Ornellas is gambling against another left hand from Abdullah Mason here. Well, Ornellas. It'd be smarter for Ornellas to right. To not lunge. If he lunges. If he reaches. Abdullah shaking those arms. Feeling a little bit tight. I saw it when he was warming up in the dressing room. He kept shaking his arms as well in the dressing room. Nice. Then he'll bag out. Get his range. Right, left from Mason. And then Ornellas lands a shot of his own. Abdullah likes to operate, man. It's mid-range, bro. He loves mid-range. You know, he got those low arms. Mid-range. That's where he's lethal. You know, again, he's going into that Mayweather-like shell. Dropping that lead hand on the inside. Inviting that backhand Ornellas. Nice left hand from Abdullah Mason here. At the end of round number three. And Ornellas says, come and get it. You know that means something different, bro. Yeah, I know. I know it says Vianello. But the speed. The punch volume. The pedigree may be with the silver. That's our main event tonight. There's two fights from that nice right. I mean, left uppercut there from Abdullah. And just you see the quick and powerful hands of the fighter out of Cleveland. He's in there. He's like, come on. Bring it. I'm still here, son. Straight left hand from Abdullah. I can't take that. He can't take too many of those. Because of the altitude. He's a scuba diver by trade. He goes and fishes for lobsters. Sells seafood. Come on, man. Abdullah timing him now. Abdullah better be careful. Dropping that lead hand. One thing about Abdullah. He hasn't fixed the one flaw that Johann Vazquez was able to exploit two fights ago out there. You know, you get in there with guys that have really good eyes, right? That can see those punches coming. You can make a miss. They strike out a lot. Because it's all or nothing. Maybe he's falling in love with being a finisher. Nothing wrong with that. But you've got to work your way through it. Like a quarterback, right? You've got to work your way through the progressions to land the better shot. Oh, that's a nice left hand from Mason. Again, it's the delayed reaction. Both times that Ornelas has been down. Ten seconds. What will Abdullah do here? To close out round four. He says, how about that left? Abdullah right there. Nice little feint on the inside. Good defense. Catching him in between with that shot. Good angle. And you see the delayed reaction, right? Perfectly shot. He was waiting on that left hand. Because he knows that's what he wanted, right? Catching him in between. That's the beauty about Abdullah. He can punch in between punches, man. And it was the second left hook that he landed. The first one was hard. How well do you anticipate? How, you know, how well do you know your opposition? Oh, he's taking risks. He's trying to get in control. He's trying to win some rounds, right? He's down heavy on the floor. Getting big shots. He keeps, you know, the phone up. But that opened the body of Abdullah Mason. Yeah, nice little elbow drag, too. Oh, Ornelas feinted himself out. And Abdullah just said, oh, really? Yeah, but that's- You just got to leave your head right there for me? That's exposing that chin for that uppercut. Good defense. All right, uppercut from Ornelas. Good defense. You too much, bro. We're halfway through this fight here at the Palms Resort and Casino. Abdullah Mason and Carlos Ornelas. Decent performance right now, I would say, from Abdullah. You know, he's being tested a little bit. He got a guy that's very experienced. He's facing the Southpaw. He's never faced the Southpaw before. He has faced the Southpaw in his early years. Mason has a 10 power punch connect advantage over Ornelas at the midway point. And I'll tell you another thing. Those knees, right? Is a scuba diver who fishes for lobster? Yeah. Right now, Mason is fishing with those feints. He's fishing with those feints, right? Is that the crowd singing happy birthday to Abdullah? Probably is. They just waiting on the ending. Right eye, blue corner punch. So punch causes a cut on the right eye of Ornelas. Production team, the best in the business, will find out if it was or not. Nice left hook there. And Ornelas is in a dangerous place because Mason's coming downhill. He's going downstairs. And that left hook is landing continually on Ornelas. And he takes a knee for the third time this fight. His patience, Tim, and poison breaking down Ornelas. That is a big shot. Consistency too. Look at the legs of Ornelas. They're not as steady as they once were. And that body shot from Abdullah Mason. Still dangerous. Ornelas is still a home run swinging Abdullah. I don't like it. I don't like him, bro. I do not like them dead spots. You either step in, you tie up. It's a knockdown. Right here, you got Abdullah Mason. Just know he has his man out of position. Just trying to catch him out of position, right? The corner needs to just go ahead and just let it. I mean, look, just stop the fight. Referee stopped him. The doctor actually stopped it. The way he was walking, his body language, Tim. I felt myself loading up a little bit, you know, trying to get him out of there early, you know. But he was a strong guy, you know. Them guys coming up. Are usually, you know, they got their full strength. Their full power. And you still got to be smart, you know, in there. And break him down. Instead of, you know, looking for that perfect shot. Which was, I was trying to do it today. I was looking for the perfect shot. You know, I didn't get that. But I caught him with some good shots in between the fight. You know, we eventually, you know, the ref waved it off. Determining the fighter in no condition to continue. He is the winner by way of technical knockout. Tonight celebrating his 21st birthday. He is now the NABF and NABO lightweight champion. The undefeated, Doha Mason!
