Milan Pales vs. Stas Kazantsev 3R. Exciting battle of two high pace, hard hitting fighters with only a handful of losses between them. Pales is the bigger, stronger fighter, and that was really the difference here, as he was able to bully Kazantsev, coming forward & backing him with his punches & front kicks. Kazantsev has a big high kick that he's not afraid to throw up at almost any time, but he was just leading with it, so Pales wasn't fooled. This would back Pales though & keep him from pressuring momentarily, but Kazantsev was never able to get his own inside pressure game going. He threw a lot, but you never felt like he was dictating. The shots that were regularly landing were Pales jab, which bloodied Kazantsev's nose, & Kazantsev's middle kick, which bruised Pales up but ultimately didn't seem to take the toll I expected. The difference was Pales did a good job of coming in behind his jab & landing his power punches while Kazantsev wasn't able to follow his middle kicks, and though he countered well, essentially was just throwing single shots all night against a guy who was regularly able to land in combination. Pales stunned Kazantsev early in the 2nd following a right push kick with a right hook. Pales' confidence was growing & he was more willing to throw his big power punches on the inside, but Kazantsev stunned him with a left over Pales' right hook. Kazantsev soon dropped Pales with a wicked right middle kick, and you thought he might have taken over the fight until you realized Pales crumbled because it was a low blow. Pales was in tremendous pain and I was pretty sure he wasn't going to be able to continue because they'd only allow him to squirm on the mat for so long. He actually went down to a knee again & threw up after he finally got back up & then at least came close to puking again twice after he told the ref he was ready to continue, so you knew he was in really rough shape. The fight eventually restarted, and you thought Kazantsev might just walk over Pales, but although Pales was never the same fighter (and thus the 1st half of the fight was better), he still did reasonably well for the rest of the fight. The low blow was definitely an equalizer in the 2nd though, & the round wound up being even. When Kazantsev landed one of his big punches, it made its mark, but there wasn't a lot of setup or deception & Pales was a little too quick to be throwing such wide heavy hooks & overhands at. Pales' punches were a lot more direct, and he had a much greater variety always coming behind the accurate jab. He wasn't running away with the fight once he got kicked in the jimmy, but he still launched solid & thoughtful attacks. Kazantsev is explosive, and when he fights guys a little slower who don't read him as well, he can win spectacularly with his high kick, but tonight he needed to adjust to something that would be more consistent because if he couldn't catch Pales after he turned into the pukemeister it probably wasn't going to happen in the 3rd when he'd had the minute to recover. Kazantsev never really changed anything up though. The ref was getting frustrated with Kazantsev, warning him several times, mostly for holding. Both fell down after Kazantsev caught a left kick, and it seemed like the ref had just had enough & decided to dock him a point. Kazantsev wasn't really stalling, if that's what it was for, he lost his mouthpiece & repeatedly failed to pick it up due to the clumsy big gloves. Pales definitely won the 1st round, and was probably winning the 3rd, but taking a point with just 10 seconds left sealed things in his favor. Pales won a unanimous decision. Good match.
