with the winner moving on to round two [Music] welcome to season two of power slap road with the [Music] title they getting you hyped up yeah yeah there came my what that’s good looking my girl I’ve

Richmond Texas it’s a suburb outside of Houston I moved out there to be closer with my children all right go no keep your head up and hit it with your arms oh like this yeah not don’t KN it with your legs the thing I like the most about being a father is they remind me uh to to be a better person every time I look at them professional coach BR my lack of fighting experience doesn’t really worry me because I feel like football is just as physical started playing football like little league ended up getting a scholarship University of Texas ended up playing arena football indoor football I mean I’ve had hits to the Head never been blacked out never been knocked out and I mean I don’t I don’t plan on getting to that point here either I’m trying to go through they soul with it you see how big these hands are so I put it across your face it’s not going to be any more doubt do it’s a little low on uh oil it might need a oil chain here your soon I’m miles Jackson from hagertown Maryland I’m 26 I deliver doors and trim for houses that are being built the doors can range anywhere from 50 lb up to 400 lb the 400 lb ones are fire doors that they put in front of elevators and there’s nobody there but me that can lift them so I end up picking them up and carrying them in and out of most places by [Music] myself growing up uh guess it had like a decent size family two sisters a brother mom and dad dad died when I was 11 brain cancer my dad was a very active smoker he smoked about a pack a day and when he got cancer it spread from his lungs to his brain I went down the wrong path I went to a dark place 16 I was 6’2 384 I made grown men look small I was always bigger than all the other kids it means the world to me that I actually get to use my full potential and the gifts that God gave me in my body to actually do something worth [Music] [Applause] meaning I want this more than anything else that’s what makes me dangerous as a [Music] fighter you never give up you do what you got to do to get the done it’s definitely going to be a battle between me and Brian but I’m going to take his ass out Brian I know you’re big and strong but you’re not ready for this Hammer that’s about to drop on your [Music] head if I was just out and about and I saw miles in public sizing him up I don’t think he wants any part of a fight [Music] miles be cool and everything but man once we step in that ring it’s all business it’s what I came here for I got to drop you man just got to do it nothing personal let’s go first one first one no need to go round two no need to get hit let’s go first one he looks terrified up there big dog he looks terrified it you got it mhm I she’s over there saying you terrified or some sh so you need to just eat this and get right back okay [Music] mhm go blue one the toss will slap first hand and count right three right on three blue is elected right on three you must measure [Music] deep measure one two oh Jesus fou we’re good we’re done I said I got no experience that [Music] take deep breath brother good thing you got to step holy okay his forehead hit that table so hard man has some power foul stepping disqualification foul a foul yeah you step this wonderful power but you stepped that was arguably the hardest hit we’ve ever had 100% not arguably you want some water I’m good momentum that kid generates so much momentum he can’t he couldn’t stop it winner by disqualification due to a stepping foul Red [Music] Corner brother just you’re tough we know you’re tough they have to I guess he gave me his best and it didn’t work win’s a win they’re going to take you to Medicals real quick just check out your hand it’ll be quick okay he did step pretty hard something we got to work on moving forward he he he definitely has the power but we got to fix the technique I hate losing even though I knocked him out I hate losing man feels like a feels terrible it’s all my fault it was an easy win for me I messed myself up I definitely hope I can come back and be a champion I definitely have it in me there’s no doubt in that I’m doing whatever whatever I need to do to solidify my feet and solidify my opportunity to come back and have another match I’m ready right now if I can go back out there right now I’m go so Brian knocks miles out with a nasty slap and gets called for a stepping foul and because of that he gets DQ so I believe that if Brian cleans up his technique I see him having a big future in the sport but for now miles gets the win for our fifth matchup Romanian sensation saur and kza faces off against Chris’s number one pick Ryan [Music] Wallace being the first pick of this season hey that’s really dope dude like like I’d have never in a million years bro name is Ryan Wallace 29 years old and I live in Hornell New York my nickname is the joker I’m funny but at the same time when it’s game time I’m going to get the job done by any means [Music] necessary I never thought trying to get fat like like get bigger was such a task man damn a like a year and a half ago I was almost 300 and then I like yeah my body like for this stuff working out and doing all that stuff and then you’re doing for you lost for this [Music] mhm heading the [Music] school here’s the Wallace’s residence in Hornell I was watching the first season of road to the title and it was love at first sight I looked right at the TV I looked right at my wife and she goes no I was 270 at that time time the highest I’d gotten in my life was 286 um wasn’t very ambitious um it was just work come home I think I was just caught up in like a form of maybe depression or just uh routine and I immediately went and got my gym membership you fast forward I’ve lost um aund almost 100 lb I feel better I can run around with my kids I’m not out of breath I haven’t been like this since I was 16 say hi hi I was a troubled kid um um not listening behavioral things like that you know um I fought a lot I fought a lot I I’d wrestle my teachers in school cuz I didn’t like the way that they were doing things I didn’t like Authority that got me in trouble um you know hadn’t down the wrong path and then um I found out that we were having my first kid and that just changed my life real quick couldn’t get in trouble anymore couldn’t risk not being there um that moment like my kid saved my life am right after I watched the road to the title 2 days later I run into Dwayne Crespo someone I had never met before anything so to me it was like that that’s a sign that’s got to be a sign right it’s over it’s over do not get up it’s over I need to guide in so when I do the swing I am going towards that wall he was cool enough to be willing to help we didn’t have to you can’t pivot after the fact you can’t you can’t you can’t I told him don’t do it doesn’t make sense to actually was willing to come over helped me with um tips tricks learning the sport inside out I’m full 100% in like I said uh diving head first I feel like I definitely bring a lot of IQ into this um as far as hip rotation uh and that’s a lot of uh body mechanics learning how to distribute balance from one side to the other but also while keeping your entire body at that um that tense to not step you if you don’t know your body when you get up there you’re already at a major disadvantage yeah that’s a right that’s a right [Laughter] hello there my name is KRA simin I’m 25 years old from Romania Transylvania [Music] in early 2023 saen comsa fought in and won a slap Fighting Championship back in his home country of Romania what got even more attention than his win was the footage of how bad his face had swelled up during the fight so that clip goes viral it was huge and this guy we believe has the toughness and heart that we want in power slap so we brought him here to give him a shot I win a competition of slapping Romania open [Applause] week and now I come to power SLP to win here also it’s a huge opportunity for me because I want

[Music] match welcome to the power slap weighin gentlemen first of the scale Ryan Wallace I love Ryan he’s been awesome he’s been cool to me since we walked into the house he’s constantly got pointers

comsa my prediction in the light heavy way bout between Ryan and Serene I’m going to go Serene all day on this uh I’ve seen that man take 23 each laps without even a budge so he’s going to take that one I [Music] leave Ryan Wallace does kind of pissed me off I don’t know why I think it’s just his personality but my boy Kam sha is going to knock him out tomorrow no doubts in my mind at all he’s going to go to sleep tomorrow and he’s going to be flown home that’s that [Applause] 201 Ryan Wallace is the smallest guy in the light heavyweight division but he has the highest slap score in the division with 874 saurin slap score is in the low 600 which obviously isn’t great but he has a ton of experience in this Sport and this guy’s been in dog fights before he’s proven he can take

on him I think it shocked seren in the first round Ryan Wallace he delivered some good blows and took two good shots but the dude he went up against was no [Music] joke comes back to me in the corner he’s like all right this time uh he’s going to go to sleep and he went out there and did exactly [Music] that what an absolutely amazing performance saurin just keeps proving his toughness the guy flies here from Romania takes two nasty slaps from Ryan then drops him in the second round saurin has a great chin unbelievable knockout power so he’s moving on to round two he is going to be a force in the light heavyweight division bang bang bang up l great job winner by knockout [Applause] sine than I’m better because I have more experience I have a pretty strong face uh they they can’t knock me down because I’m too strong I’m the best in the world I feel like I drew the baddest dude here went toe to- Toe with him and uh unfortunately I I came up on the short side but I feel like I did enough to impress hopefully I’m going to come back stronger get back to work uh I know where my tweaks are um just back to the drawing board definitely not the last that I plan on being here for [Music] sure next up it’s time for Team Min Powerhouse Delvin Hamlet to take on team Thomas’s Puerto Rican heavyweight Jonathan kareah Jonathan Korea Jonathan and Elin I think Jonathan will be uh the best I saw him training he hit so hard so I think maybe not in the first round but in the second one he can win by knockout 256 Jonathan I held the the pad for him today when he hit it oh almost had me flinching that was a big Arm coming at me so from what I’ve seen so far I mean honestly I think uh I think Jonathan might have that one next to the scale Delvin Hamlet the heavyweight fight between Jonathan and Delvin I’m going go with the country hoodlum Delvin 216 and a half I think he got a good background in hitting and I think he’ll be able to knock him out hopefully Jonathan versus Delvin looks like a really evenly matched fight they both have almost the same exact slap scores around 700 they’re both big strong and they are both Street tough so the winner of this moves on to round two loser goes home this should be a badass heavyweight fight good luck on the next episode of Power slap road to the title T KO Chris’s Jonathan Korea tries to make his native Puerto Rico proud as he steps in to face Delvin Hamlet of Team mun then Welter weights Collide Zack Zayn brings the number one rank slap score in the competition to the stage as he faces Italian and former special opop
