What up talking fight fans, thanks for tuning in to today’s episode of knuckle up featuring yours truly mike orr, and we got a good one for you today guys we have a prospect for you guys to watch this upcoming weekend and that is nathan corliss.
Yes, this cruiserweight is 10-0 right now he is 26 years old and you know he’s out of mary’s side liverpool man and he is ranked 25th out of 57 in the cruiserweight division in the uk and 177th at 1150 in the world, guys and uh.
You know this kid he’s no uh, no he’s! No stranger.
When it comes to boxing, you know he’s the nephew of the leading 1980s heavyweight noel corliss, who turned professional in march of 2018 after boxing as an amateur at the world.
Famous salisbury abc nathan, on the other hand, only had 19 amateur fights, but was an aba semifinalist in the 2016 and 2017.
won the north of england title and was invited to england’s talent program.
Although nathan is yet to stop an opponent as a professional, his camper pleased with performances so far uh, he was pushed all the way by lithuanian andreas ruiz in december of 2019 winning 39-38.
But apart from that close call his uh.
He has impressed more often than not in february of 2020, he stepped up to a sixth round and outpointed norbert skeeters, um, yeah, guys and then um.
You know check i vote.
Zendinik uh was his opponent on vip’s boxing comeback show after the covet, delay and corliss ran out of a car ran out a comfortable points winner over six rounds uh.
He ended up 20 21 with a step up in class and was far too accurate for steve collins, jr beating him comfortably over eight rounds.
Uh – and you know he is very open about his past and he admits to having overcome gambling addiction outside of the ring and now works with a service that highlights the problems it can bring uh you know, so this kid is not only a fighter inside the Ring but he is also a fighter outside of the ring and i’m pleased to say that he will be fighting this weekend.
So you know it’ll give you something to watch and he will be taking on michael webster at the echo arena in liverpool um guys, even though he has yet to stop an opponent um.
Definitely he is impressive in that ring and uh definitely will be one to watch his uh upcoming weekend man when he takes on his uh his opponent.
I’M kind of excited to see this kid jump back in the ring uh.
It has been a little while, since he’s been in there, so guys be on the lookout for nathan corliss.
You know the name, you know it uh, he is trained by david burke and uh.
You know david definitely is doing some great things with this guy uh.
Hopefully, this weekend we get to see him stop his first opponent.
You know uh, he is 12, his sorry.
He is 10-0 right now without a stoppage, so i’m gon na be rooting for him to actually come through with the stoppage this weekend on this card and guys if you’re wondering what card that’s going to be on, that’s going to be on the liam smith card.
This one is going to be great a lot of good fighters on this one guys so make sure that you set your pvrs or whatever pro programs or platforms.
You watch it on and you’re going to definitely want to watch this one, because this is going to be a great card man.
We got adam’s, azim who’s going to be on this card, along with patty lacy, frankie, stringer and frasier clark.
All of them we have talked about uh the headlines for this show man honestly, natasha jonas will be taking on patricia bergalt and that will be for the wbc world super welter in the wbo world, super welter and uh yeah.
On this undercard.
We get to see this wonderful kid jump on and join us cedric.
What’S going on brother, how are you doing good, i’m good? How are you i was just talking about about our man nathan here who uh who’s performing this weekend on the liam smith card? Um? Also, i wanted to touch base on the fact that he has yet to stop one of his opponents out of his 10-0 uh.
You know record, so we are going to be cheering him on to get a stoppage.
He has been close many times but uh.
Unfortunately, he has yet to come through with a stoppage victory over one of his opponents.
Um.
Can you break it down, for you know, maybe the fighters and and a coach and what what goes through a coach’s head when you have no stoppages and you’re going into a big fight like this uh, a big fight? Does he have a fight schedule that coming up oh yeah, this saturday, you said this this saturday he will be taking on uh michael webster, who is 7-0 and nathan? Corliss is 10-0 webster.
On the other hand, um out of his 7-0 has had five ko stoppages.
So she is only 27.
uh.
He is ranked 17th out of 57 in the uk, he’s ranked 131.
I know 11 50 in the world and he will be taking on uh our man, nathan corliss, who is 10-0 right now and uh.
Cordless is only ranked, i believe, it’s fi.
I said it was 50 50th or 52nd in the uk uh sorry 25th.
The numbers mixed up he’s ranked 25th in the uk in the cruiserweight division uh.
But you know his his his coaches, his team they’re, confident that uh he will eventually get one of these stoppages, so uh yeah.
Let’S talk a little bit about it, maybe about his style.
Well uh.
He definitely relies more on his skill level than that than his power, obviously um, and as he moves up in the ranks, his skill level is definitely gon na have to um make sure that that it’s exceptional, because once you get to the higher levels.
At some point in time, he’s gon na face uh someone, that’s a heavy puncher and if that heavy puncher is not afraid, not afraid, but not you know if they have nothing to worry about, not just a heavy puncher, but just anyone in general.
If there’s, if they, if they know that, there’s not, they don’t have any serious fire coming back at them, it gives it gives your opponent more confidence that they can come forward and try to finish you off early or they don’t they’ll, try certain things that they Normally, probably would not try against someone that that has power, because they don’t want to take that chance.
But you know if you don’t have that uh that power.
You know it’s a little bit more incentive to come forward, so hopefully um nathan can keep make sure that his skills keep improving as he moves up in the ranks to to lack to make up for the lack of power, definitely and um.
You know you say one day he’s going to meet one of these heavy-handed opponents and, honestly that is going to be his opponent this coming weekend, um michael webster, because you know out of the seven seven wins that he has.
He has stopped five people so um.
It’S gon na be definitely a test for nathan, but you know what i believe he’s uh.
You know he definitely has the ability to um to handle high pressure man.
You know he is the nephew of leading 1980s heavyweight, no cordless, who turned professional in march of 2018.
So you know no, no cordless, you know he’s leading of the 1980s heavyweight.
You know, that’s that’s what it is so guys be on the lookout.
For this kid.
I think he’s gon na, i think he’s gon na be able to come through with a with a knockout victory man.
It is definitely gon na be a step up for him against michael webster this weekend, guys so make sure you want to watch that fight.
It’S going to be a good one, uh cedric anything else.
You want to mention about his fighting style or anything before we get out of here.
Uh.
No, just from the highlights a few highlights that i got a chance to watch of him.
You know he um.
I can see how he’s still undefeated he likes to stay on the outside he’s tall and i’m not sure how tall he is, but he definitely uses his long extension reach and tries to keep you on the outside.
You know, i’m not really looking to come in to to finish you off so yeah six foot, four cruiser six foot, four cruiser: okay, so yeah! You know it’s about right for those cruiserweights and um yeah at the division.
Six four is about average.
For for the cruiser race right, so you know 664, 200, 202, that’s usually in and around where he weighs in at um.
That’S actually a little that’s actually pretty tall for the average cruiserweight.
So he’s probably he’s probably going to be taller than most of his opponents, which means he, you know, he’s going to really rely on his reach, and he has so far so we’ll see how far how long he’s going to keep this up.
He’S really good.
He’S.
Really good at fighting on the outside man, he does use that reach um.
He likes to stand up real tall against his opponents and uh yeah.
You can see it when he fights uh in the ring man and i i’m looking forward to uh this week’s card.
Actually, you know with the liam smith and natasha jonas made on that one, so guys be on the lookout for this wonderful fight.
