Unbeaten interim WBA Super Bantamweight champion Brandon "The Heartbreaker" Figueroa (20-0, 15 KOs)gave his hometown fans a knockout victory to celebrate Saturday night as he stopped Javier Nicolas Chacon (29-5-1, 9 KOs)in round four of the main event of FS1 PBC Fight Night and on FOX Deportes from Bert Ogden Arena in Edinburg, Texas.
"It was one of the best moments of my life fighting in front of my family and supporters who have been with me since I was seven years old," said Figueroa. "I want to do this again and again, over and over. These are my people and it feels amazing."
The 22-year-old Figueroa targeted the body early and often, while opening up and showing a more varied attack as the fight went on. Argentina's Chacon was tentative offensively, landing an occasional uppercut, but nothing that was able to slow his opponent. Figueroa held a staggering 96 to 18 advantage in punches landed.
"He wasn't throwing punches so I had to get in there and rough him up," said Figueroa.
