    Happy to see Nery finally get the beating that he deserves, Fulton vs Figueroa will be one messy inside fight based on what I've seen of both

    A brawler on his bike. You knew he wasn't in good shape

    So has he unified the regular WBA championship or does he lose that?

    As an aside, I thought that main even was very well refereed. He let them work and broke it up when appropriate, and he gave out warnings properly.

    Yeah

    I said early I believed there was a method in the madness and there was, he didn't let Nery breathe, he kept a high pace and kept throwing punches and Nery couldn't go with him.

    The moment Nery realised he couldn't dent Fig, it was over to be honest.

    There is no way there were only 11 body shots from Figueroa. No way.

    I...I missed Nery getting knocked out.

    I am quite salty about this, despite the fantastic result.

    Figueroa's the real pretty boy boxer unlike Ryan Garcia, much ballsier and more entertaining. What an absolute g, I love all of his fights but this was just perfect in terms of pure fun. Inside fighting extraordinaire right there.

    I actually didn't like it.

    The first two were amazing, I thought the last one was in the no man's land between letting it be a war and keeping it clean, let Figueroa get a lot of rabbit punches in but was still intrusive.

    Unified WBA - WBC, yes this is a real thing, Carl Froch was something similar when Ward was Super champ

    Wow, that's impressive :boxing1

    Also not your first righteous rodeo :bananaride

    About the weight bullying stuff. Who was going up or down in weight here?

    Just remembered Luis Nery is a drug cheat? This makes me joyous at the result.

    He seems to throw the jab as just a throw away punch in order to get close and to measure distance. He basically just flails that arm out there, not much of a jab at all tbh.
