Why Bet on Stephen Fulton Jr.
Born and raised in West Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Fulton (19-0, 8 KO) faced striking competition while raising at the 122lbs ranking, giving him the chance to defeat Leo to become World Champion at SHOWTIME.
In his last 13 professional battles, the 27-year-old defeated an undefeated fighter in front of eight, including Leo, Joshglia, Arnold Kegai, Adam Lopez and Luis Sole Rosario.
Trained by coach Wahid Rahim in his hometown Fulton demonstrated a sublime boxing skill that allowed him to control different styles of opponents and control the fight from start to finish.
Why Bet on Brandon Figueroa
The 24-year-old Figueroa (22-0-1, 17 KO) was the first to take advantage of his youth and relentless pressure to defeat Luis Nery in a championship clash at SHOWTIME.
Figueroa’s body attack was different. He was able to stand up to Nely’s attack and eventually overwhelm him for a knockout.
Originally from Weslaco, Texas, Figueroa has joined the family’s legacy of winning the world title; this by joining his brother Omar Figueroa, who previously hosted the lightweight world championships.
Figueroa defeated many veteran candidates on his way to championship status, knocking out Moises Flores, Oscar Escandon and Damian Basquez.
Final Betting Analysis: Stephen Fulton Jr. vs. Brandon Figueroa
Figueroa vs. Fulton has been a much-discussed potential showdown for several years; prior to the two unbeaten fighters joining the world championship ranks with career-best performances in 2021.
Fulton struck first, dominating then-unbeaten Angelo Leo to capture the WBO title in January, while Figueroa made his own statement in stopping two-division champion Luis Nery to capture the WBC strap in May.
The winner of the Figueroa vs. Fulton fight will be in a great position to face IBF/WBA 122-lb champ Murodjon Akhmadaliev for the undisputed championship in the division.
For the Figueroa-Fulton winner to beat Akhmadaliev, it would say a lot.
Due to the punishment that Brandon took in his latest war against Luis Nery, we believe he might not have recovered to the point of being able to take as much punishment in this fight.
Fulton should avoid the scraps and focus on outboxing Figueroa, he has the skills to outclass his opponent and it should be enough to hand him the victory and unification of the titles.
