- Hard-hitting Mexican contender Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz (25-2-1, 17 KOs) edged out the previously unbeaten Giovanni Cabrera (21-1, 7 KOs) via split decision to emerge victorious in their WBC and WBA Lightweight Title Eliminator.
Cruz, who was deducted a point in round eight due to headbutts, won the bout with scores of 115-112 and 114-113, with one judge scoring the action 114-113 for Cabrera.
“I was superior tonight, but I do respect all of my opponents, and he was very good today,” said Cruz. “I was frustrated a little. He thought it was my birthday because he was hugging me all night.”
The typically aggressive Cruz started patiently as the southpaw Cabrera used his height and jab to try to keep Cruz from getting into position to land his power shots across the early action. Cruz began to find his offense in rounds three through six, landing numerous strong hooks, including a counter left that gave Cabrera problems time and time again.
“Cabrera’s height didn’t frustrate me as much as the fact that I was coming off a considerably long period of inactivity,” said Cruz. “That’s not an excuse though, and I still won.”
"In the middle rounds I was pulling back and he was catching me with punches that were turning my head around,” said Cabrera. “He's a 'Pitbull' and we gave the fans a good fight.”
Cabrera was able to adjust in the later rounds and nearly pulled off the upset by winning at least two of the last three rounds on all three cards. Cruz held a significant edge in power punches landed (152-55) and was the more accurate fighter overall by landing 31% of his shots compared to 13.5% from Cabrera.
"I waited a little too long waiting to see how much he had,” said Cabrera. “Then I started turning up my punches when I saw that was all he had. I thought I took control at the end of the fight, but I don't make any excuses.
Cabrera expressed his belief post-fight that he had done enough to earn a career-best victory, while Cruz reiterated his intention to seek a rematch against unbeaten superstar Gervonta Davis after losing a competitive decision to Davis in December 2021.
"I really thought I did enough in the early rounds and the closing rounds,” said Cabrera. “It was a close fight. His energy started going down toward the end of the fight and I was tagging him with uppercuts.”
“I respect Gervonta, and at the same time I’m sure that I will have the opportunity to redeem myself,” said Cruz. “When that opportunity comes, I’ll be ready.”

Before Rayo fight ppl called him like Mini Mike Tyson and now they say he's one dimensional😂😂😂😂
Only ppl who said that were his meatriders if u really know boxing u wouldve seen how bad he was
Tyson kinda sorta was one dimensional 🤣🤣 That shit aint fly agaist the greats like Holyfield and Lewis!! Sorry mike i love ya but you were a one trick pony !!!
No one that hates on someone is better than that person in any way
@@A-Side2602you obviously know nothing about boxing. Everybody knows that Mike Tyson wasn't the same as Prime Mike Tyson
@@follow352 😂😂 you really don’t know boxing!!! Iron Mike beat a bunch of chumps!! He beat no legends!!! I don’t wanna hear about Larry Holmes he was 38 coming out of retirement after 2 years. Not to mention he suffered back to back losses before he retired!! He just needed the money. The rest of iron Mike opponents were nothing special. Buster Douglas was nothing special!!! No disrespect Tyson was a great fighter but he was basically one dimensional apply pressure slide in and brawl !! It’s a lot of great one dimensional fighters but they always get exposed !!
Pit bull fans better not mention tank ever again 😂
Never
Rite 😂
😂😂😂 these people be out of they minds
They released after he lost 💯😭cuz this fight would expose him 💯😭
😂😂😂
I've seen Cruz get outboxed 3 times and duck Stevenson. There's nothing else you can sell me on dude.
ducked ryan too
@@joshuawoodard6998 he's gotta improve his style if he wants to be in top
@@cayeeryan can't even come close to cruz weight class. Ryan is 147 maybe and banned.
@@BigPat6521 he fight on 140 against devin and cruz can go up easy
He didn’t duck Stevenson he just didn’t wanna chase his ass for 12 rounds
CRUZE and Garcia. I hate it. I like both fighters. And I don't want to see either loose. It'll be a coin toss.
Isaac doesn't know what a jab is.
…at all! What is his trainer doing about it?
@@Turtleback8024nada y lo peor esque es su padre y nada😂
That's why he's gotta take a page out of prime Mike tyson's style and incorporate a better jab, use more angles, better footwork and head movement, and stop head hunting. He's gotta improve his style if he wants any chance to beat Valenzuela in a rematch to challenge Tank davis.
@@kek283are you slow? he lost to Rayo already, bro lives in the past 🤣🤣
@shnaggygothoes5089 You misunderstood my comment. There is a chance he can bounce back and you're talking like he's not worth a damn anymore.
It’s hard to fight someone who doesn’t really want to fight. I understand the tactic of not getting hit and it’s great if you just want to win on points, but all that running around and holding, I don’t particularly like it. Cruz could’ve did a better job of cutting off the ring and letting his hands fly a little more. It is what it is.
I don’t think so. He could improve his footwork a bit; sure, but he was letting those hands fly when he felt he was within range consistently.
He need to learn how to jab seriously
Man! I can’t believe he doesn’t jab at all!
Ikr. He's gotta take a page out of prime tysons fighting style and have a refine jab, use more angles, stop head hunting, better head movement.
Have you ever boxed? You can't out-jab someone who's taller, longer reach, and moves a lot. You don't know shit about boxing.
@@Turtleback8024 A jab is useless against someone who is taller, has a longer reach, and moves around. You never boxed before and it shows.
He’s too small for a jab!!!
A jab for him is useless when he fights taller fighters
Chihuahua Cruz got exposed 😂😂😂 I'm glad he did because he is not humble anymore, refusing to shake hands and his dad talking too much crap before the Rayo fight.
Its not that serious 💀 he paid his consequences for being a tool. Other than that who cares about someone's personality that we're never gonna meet? 😂
@@BigPat6521Tank: "THEY NOT LIKE US" 😂
@@follow352”us” lmao bro you are not apart of anything you are frail and small
Once Pitbull establishes the jab along with better angles and feints… He’ll become way more dangerous
No he wont
He won't...
Establishing a Jab,Angles and feints would mean Him abondoning His Aggressive style....and it would take years to master a new style Since He is at the peak of His Career
@@kabosolomon3693 it could happen. Let’s just see 💯
I think His style is Good...He just needs to Know how to Cut the ring and corner His Opponent... Aggressive style needs better Footwork.....
Atleast I believe No one In his division can stand Toe to toe with Him so Learning to cut the ring will probably Help Him win...
@@kabosolomon3693JAB!
Issac “one dimensional” Cruz😂
They released after he lost 💯😭cuz this fight would expose him 💯😭
He's one dimensional for sure. Now that he's been exposed and outclassed, he should improve his style.
@PiplupPlus n
And can beat ur ass
@PiplupPlushis dad said that
People turning on Cruz crazy, the only (shortest btw) man right now to no be scared to move up to fight bigger dudes at 140. Dont forget what that exact same style did to tank😂
Why is it a thing for boxing fans to turn on their favorite fighter when they lose? Like fighters like Joe Frazier lost for George foreman and Muhammad ali but he is still a respected boxer. I'm confused here.
@@kek283it’s fake boxing fans switching up ,pitbull still one of my favorite fighters 🇺🇸🇲🇽
What did it do? Lose? Tank hurt his hand on his head lol
Even Muhammad Ali was called a bum when he lost to Frazier. Boxing fans have always been mental.@@kek283
Cruz is 🗑️ get over it his 5min of fame is up
Cmon PBC release boots vs villa
This fight is what made me aware of cruz’s problems and this why i was so on point of davis beating him again yes the style used isnt what ig casuals want but its technical boxing snd rayo used it and won🙏🏽
Same here bro I saw this fight and I knew right away Cruz had trouble with boxers and not as much power as people think.
this is another fight that pitbum lost
Good ref doing his job
He struggles fighting tall fighters bc he doesn’t jab 💀
I'm glad they uploaded this a week after the fight this what's going help with people who like boxing because we broke out here Disney is taking too much of our money
I've been using a free stream of all the boxing and ufc fights for over a year now. Don't pay sh¡t ever again
This fight is a year old tho
isaac “haymakers” cruz
I just realized this was also headlined in Spence vs Crawford main event too 😮
Cabrera won
😂❤
Pbc y’all should have posted Colbert vs Rayo 2
no wonder he said he would not fight devin and shakur he knows he would get cooked . lmao
Mexican Pride 💯 People of Pride and Country , God Bless Mexico.
Que Viva Mexico 💯
De parte de un hermano Latino y Arawak , De Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 🇲🇽 🙏
Pitbulls team demanded that PBC start uploading old fights 🤣🤣🤣
Watching his defeat against Rayo must've made him realize that Cruz needs a style change otherwise he's fucked with someone that can properly box
hes already fucked. u know how long he practiced his current style? old habits die hard. it would take a decade to UNLEARN his current style.
PBC please upload jermall charlo vs Jose Benavidez
Seeing everyone switch up on Cruz over this last fight is crazy. Still my favorite boxer cause no matter what he gives a action packed fight worth PPV everytime
This fight was all I had to see to know Rayo was gonna pull off the upset via decision, you casuals couldn’t see pit bulls flaws
I think that Ryan gracia
Gio walked so rayo could run
Freddie Roach looks like he's ready to fall over.
Tanks knocks him out in rematch he got way better since then.
Doubtful it will be KO.
Wait that dude was undefeated????? Who he was fighting before????
That's what I'm saying
He was fighting McDonald’s managers and mechanics 🧰
Tirapiedras cruz, la farsa más grande que hubo en México
Cruz always get outboxed
Isaac "zero jab" Cruz
He's gotta improve his style at this point.
The distance.
Cabrera look like a beginner unlocked premium in boxing games.
I know head budding and holding are 2 different things but how many holding warnings can you give before taking a point????????
He seriously needs to develop a Jab
I Indonesian my idola pitbul Cruz🔥🔥
Pitbull would be so much better if he would just jab his way inside
It looks like they're play fighting 😂
They thought this guy would be the next Mike tyson😂
Can't listen to people they're just runic their mouth. He's not even remotely close to iron mike.
@abe.officialsyt5355 I know he's not, but his style looks similar is all.
I mean Tyson's opponent didn't ran around the ring like this.
Rayo Valenzuela
Arriba Mochis Sinaloa México🇲🇽
What happened to Pitbull ?😮
Everybody that loves Cruz is just into UFC guy does nothing but throw hooks and it’s so obvious what he’s going to do. This is boxing, get out of here with that UFC shit
claim to fame was going the distance w tank cause he broke a hand, fought a washed gamboa, a guy making his lighteweight debut, then this horrible fight, then gifted a belt vs rolly😂and ppl had the nerve to speak like he some elite guy who would beat tank,teo or shakur
Gifted a belt against rolly? He literally KO’d rolly? You def don’t watch boxing cause why didn’t you mention rolly actually getting a gifted decision against Jackson marines & a controversial stoppage against 47 year old Ismael barroso. You’re favorite fighter scared to fight shakur tho and waited till loma got old to call him out
@@UnknownBoxingFan he was gifted a tittle shot u dummy😂😂😂😂😂😂 that shit was a gift stop throwing out the word casual. everybody knew he would beat rolly that was a gifted shot
@@UnknownBoxingFan and stop acting like uk me🤣i’m not a fan of tank lil bra bra nor shakur my fav fighter is the current pfp 1 in usyk thank you
He won that fight vs Tank and vs Rayo fight was rigged cause Tank admitted he is scared to get his ass beat again by pitbull ninja is 🐔
@@FreedomOfSpeech1.0 R u for real?😂😂😂
I didn't think Cruz won this fight really.. Watch it without listening to these lame commentators.
Cruzz too good man
Cruz jab is absent and possibly too short. He has one torqued power that without any form of combinations.
Yall acting like pitbull got so beat to the point where he isn't still one of the best lol ... bunch of casuals pitbull just couldn't hit a much taller opponent & didn't even have a scratch on him its regular bruh he still beats everybody else lets be fr loser boxing fans is the reason top fighters don't fight
It's funny how many people switch up on cruz after a loss. Once a boxer loses he's a bum.
They tried to keep this withheld so people couldn’t make money from Rayo lol .. that legend posted the video of them from the arena and helped me make coin
GIOVANNI CABRERA BEAT CRUZVX, REASON WHY I KNEW RAYO WOULD WIN WITH ES!
P.S- GIO DROPPED CRUZZ 11th rd!
Cruz just needs to learn how to jab. If he had a jab, he’d win fights with little to sway the decision to his opponent
Calling cruz trash is insane, cabrera was stuck in reverse gear, this was just a horrible match up!
Isaac “one dimensional” Cruz
Tank: "THEY NOT LIKE US" 😂
i been sayin shakur was gon outbox cruz the bum hypejob lol lmao now we see why he ducked shakur lol lmao no more tank payday for you cruz lol lmao
theres other boxers that will outbox him to
I’m so glad Rayo proved everyone wrong, now pitbull can’t use the “I’m waiting for the tank rematch” excuse to duck other fighters 🤣
@@chrisg3688 yep lol lmao
CRUZ A PUNK & 🦆
@@shawnterrance7204 right and his fans gave so many excuses to why he won’t fight shakur lol😂😂😂
Obviously but shakur is not out performing anyone anymore since he was at 130 so no one is giving him any credit.
Cabrera won this fight a lot more convincing than Cruzs last opponent Valenzuela. Smh.
Fabulous fight with a most excellent picture.
If Cabrera was disciplined with the jab and straight right and didn't engage with Cruz on the inside he could have won easily close fight though
Damn... i never in my wildest dreams thought PITBULL was going to get out boxed...
pitbull train months & pay camps to throw hooks in his only serious match.. never seen bro spar fr 😭
Isaac said he wasn’t going to throw a jab in this fight
Isaac Cruz congrats.
🎉🥊🏆
Cabrera. ganó. claramente. al. juez. que. vio. ganar. a. Cruz. necesita. examen. visual
Mantaap bang isaak cruz. Buat bang isaak, sy sllu mendoakan yg terbaik buat bang isaak... Menang3 sllu jagoan ku
Cruz should never fight at 140 to little
Cabrera’s coach took “Confuse your enemies” to heart💀💀💀 tf was he saying
Mexican Mike Tyson can y'all please find y'all own fighters to idolize! Everyone wanna be Black!
Idiolize? 😂😂ft
Ouuu Ryan vs pit that’s an event to see!
35:00 😮😆😂🤣🥹🤣
Rayo won chiwawa cruz didn’t do nothing 😂
Chihuahua Cruz 😂
Anybody unclear on who the promotion hoped would win? Watch it with the sound off like Uncle @]teddyatlas has to do from time to time. Cabrera gave him a beating. Just sayin
Now y'all see why tank is so devastating. Why is it that you all can't recognize how good he is . Wake up people.
Meat munchimgout the aaaaaa
Pitbulllll
Cruz was fighting dirty
It's funny that PBC wouldn't release this fight until after the Cruz hype died down. Pitbull's flaws got exposed but a lot of people didn't see this fight
This fight really showed how bad Cruz really is
Took little man to school
🎩
😁
👕👍Great!
👖
👍✨✨✨
🎉👏👏🎉
Congratulations!
What's the guy's job who is standing in the middle ringside?
cruz playing fight night champion on a controller with haymaker button welded down
Cabrera sucks and he exposed Isaac 😂😂
Se le fue la humildad al putbull. Rayo mcqueen se vendrá la revancha.
CRUZ PAQUETITO
he needs a better coach or a real coach to make plans for him.
Cruz has achieved the best he could regarding his talents... Because tbh he is straight up traaaash!😂
Facts man he got lucky to even win the championship in the first place
@@bryanrodas6623 Didn't see what the fuss was about with people hyping him up....I know Mexicans ride with their people hard but seeing other ytube channels talking about him like he had some skills🤦🏾♂️
@@jay-tonicsatherapper6171your just saying stuff he arguably gave tank his hardest fight there's a saying in boxing styles make fights
@@bobjacksom9776We all agree he gave Tank a good match even though Tank couldn't use his left hand and still beat him , his just average with a granite chin that's all
That hype gone 😂🗑️
He lost this fight too 115-113 gio
Isaac Cruz did a great job he made more significant shots
37:01 - Cruz delivers a crazy combination, commentators praising Giovanni for taking shots (Punch resistance).
Wow. Pitbull lost!!!
Cruz landed clean haymakers this fight but could hardly land anything against Valenzuela
Tank fans all happy. Pitbull would still have gervonta scared for his life like the first fight. Tank aint 5'10
Cut it out.. he lost the first time and will get knocked out if they ever fight again.. Cruz is now off the board… get over it
There’s no way this was a split, Cruz won this COMFORTABLY.
That was fast!
congrats pitbull 💪💪💪
Aye they released this on purpose bruh 😭💯
