Brandon Figueroa Promises to Make Nick Ball Wilt
Former WBC 122-pound beltholder Brandon “The Heartbreaker” Figueroa (26-2-1, 19 KOs) is leaving nothing to chance as he prepares for his showdown with reigning WBA featherweight champion Nick Ball (23-0-1, 13 KOs) on February 7 in Ball’s hometown of Liverpool. If Figueroa delivers his best performance on fight night, he could leave with the WBA title wrapped around his waist.
MET HIS MATCH?
The champion is a squat, compact fighter who relies on physical strength and an awkward attack to break down opponents. However, with his significant height and reach advantage, Figueroa has the style to counter what Ball brings to the table.
The Heartbreaker fights at a relentless pace and thrives on constant forward pressure. With the ability to throw well over 1,000 punches in a fight, Figueroa possesses the potential to overwhelm Ball through sheer volume and intensity.
Ball believes performing in front of his home crowd will elevate his performance on fight night. Yet fighting on home soil can also create added pressure and anxiety—especially if things begin to go wrong in the ring. Figueroa is determined to break the hearts of Ball and his supporters while becoming a two-division champion on February 7.
