In a fight that did not appear as unilateral as judges results cards, Figueroa (24-1-1, 18 KO) won the results of 117-109 twice and 118-108. The unofficial Showtime, unofficial shooter, saw the fight 114-112 in favor of Figueroa, with two deductions of Magsayo Point in order to maintain the difference in the fight on the results card.
“I thought the fight was much closer than the results indicated,” said Magsayo. “I don’t know how to explain the results cards or point deductions. It’s very disappointing. I plan to go to 130 pounds after this fight. “
Figueroa, which on average 92 blows thrown to the round throughout his career, was restricted to 54 blows thrown to the round against Magsayo (24-2, 16 KO). Figueroa threw 60 more blows than Magsayo, but he landed three less blows, and the warriors were separated by more than four landed blows in just three out of twelve rounds.
Figueroa began slowly and had to withstand the best Magsayo shots at the beginning of the fight, showing that he had one of the best sides in boxing. But Magsayo was tired when the rounds lasted and was punished twice for staying in the eight and eleven.

Reséndiz landed 206 power beats, ultimately opening the deep cut of the Hurda lip, which caused the end of the fight. At the time of stopping, Reséndiz was overtaken at all three judges.
“I visualized this fight for as long as I intended to win this fight,” said Reséndiz in the ring by the translator Showtime Felix Dejeesus. “It was about my heart, but I know I can be even better and you will see what I mean in my next fight. I told everyone that I was ready to go to war, after all I am a Mexican. It was a robust, physical fight as we expected. The results speak for themselves. “
Hurd tried to work on a stab early, landing a total of 27 stabs in third and four rounds, but fighting for the third time for over three years, Hurd disappeared as the rounds passed. In rounds from six to nine Reséndiz, 106 power strokes landed, limiting Hurd to 69 unloaded power blows.
“I knew it would be arduous, a finger based on our styles,” said 32-year-old Hurd, who for the first time lost at a distance in his career. “But I just had to do it one more thing. I would like to be able to finish it, but my lip was incorrectly cut. Congratulations to Reséndiz. I would definitely like to continue. At no time I defended this fight at all, but I have to respect what doctors say and I can’t support it. “
In the television opener, the rapidly developing teenager Elijah Garcia (14-0, 12 KO) rose to this occasion in a huge fight, dropping and stopping the previously undefeated pretender to medium weight, Amilcar Vidal, Jr. (16-1, 12 kos) with a piping of blows at 2:17 fourth round. Watch KO here.

“That’s what he dreams, so it’s not a surprise,” said Garcia of Phoenix, who detained six of the last seven opponents. “I worked on it because I changed a professional, so we’ll go forward step by step.”
For only three and a half rounds of romance forward and title, both warriors were bloody and connected to 189 blows, and 593 blows. Power balls were a difference in combat, because Garcia landed 54 percent of his power blows 46 percent Vidal. In the fourth round of Garcia, 62 percent of his blows landed, including the versatile last blows.
“I remain ready and mentally I am robust,” Garcia continued. “I know mentally, I could lose the first few rounds, but I crashed him. He began to go back. He is a great opponent. No disrespect. I caught him and finished. I am not sure what I hurt him, but I know that I hurt him, and for me I am 19, I have maturity to say whether they are hurt or not. “
After a definite announcement to the boxing world in his national television debut, Garcia promised that his newly earned fans would see him much more.

Deontay Wilder may miss the fight he wants next due to a change in heavyweight plans
Published

April 23, 2026
Deontay Wilder is unlikely to secure his preferred fight after taking a split decision to fellow veteran Derek Chisora earlier this month.
The two faced off in a messy battle at London’s O2 Arena, with Wilder scoring two knockdowns en route to his 12-round victory.
The 40-year-old had previously recorded just one victory, a seventh-round finish over little-known heavyweight Tyrrell Herndon, following consecutive defeats to Zhilei Zhang and Joseph Parker.
These two flaws emerged in 2024 and 2023, respectively, and reinforced the growing belief that the “Bronze Bomber” was on the brink of retirement.
However, Wilder has since insisted he wants to stay in the sport, particularly to secure a long-discussed clash with Anthony Joshua, who recently told the Briton to “sit down or shut up”.
The pair have been on a collision course for a century since they held all four major heavyweight titles between them.
While both fighters would likely like to fight without a title later this year, Matchroom Boxing boss Eddie Hearn expressed a slightly different desire.
I’m talking to talkSPORTJoshua’s longtime promoter has mentioned a potential appearance this summer ahead of what he hopes will be a November fight with Tyson Fury.
“If we were promoting this event [this summer]that’s exactly what I would do [making the Wilder fight].
“But this is the deal that we made with Fury against AJ as the pinnacle of that deal. There will be a lot of people who won’t want to take a fight that they think will be risky and bet on it. [the Fury fight in] danger.
“The reality is this [that] all fights are risky, especially in this division. We have no problem with fighting Wilder. [But] I don’t think it’s Wilder [on] basis of this agreement.”
This deal includes two fights with Turki Alalshikh, which will allow Joshua to enter the ring before his fight with Fury in overdue 2026.
Such an agreement would mean he would fight for the first time since then in December in the sixth round against Jake Paulwhich was preceded by a tragic car accident that killed two of his close friends.

Osleys Churches Respond to Charles Adames Combat Claims
Published

Carlos Adames said he can beat anyone at middleweight and super middleweight, but the statement was met with immediate backlash from newly crowned IBF super middleweight champion Osleys Iglesias. After Adames announced he was ready to fight, the undefeated Cuban responded on social media, calling for the fight to go ahead.
The exchange began when Carlos Adames stated that no one at 160 or 168 pounds could beat him. The fan quickly challenged him to fight Iglesias, one of the most hazardous names in the super middleweight division.
“Who are you? What I do in the ring confirms what I say here. Whenever you want, I’m ready to prove it to you,” Adames said in X.
That was met with a direct response from Iglesias (15-0, 14 KO), who is coming off an eighth-round victory over Pavel Silyagin and gained traction at 168 pounds after winning the IBF title.
“Enough talking. Let’s get on the same page and take the fight to the next level. I’m waiting for your call. My team is ready. I’m waiting for you,” said Osleys Iglesias.
Adames holds the middleweight title while Iglesias is one division above, so any fight would require one side to advance. This alone makes it more sedate than a routine online argument.
This exchange with Iglesias bears all the hallmarks of a potential bluff by Adames. Iglesias is now viewed by many as the 168-pound boss who stopped Pavel Silyagin in the eighth round just two weeks ago.
He’s a powerful southpaw with a 93% knockout rate, which isn’t usually the type of guy a champion fights unless he’s 100% sedate or looking for a huge payday.
Fans will soon find out if this was Adames’ social media stunt if he starts demanding a catchweight fight with Iglesias or tells him to drop down to 160 pounds. If he tells IBF 168-pound champion Iglesias to back off, he will simply be looking for a way out. It will be a foregone conclusion if he stays on X and does not lead to official negotiations between Adames’ promoters at PBC and Iglesias’ team.
The southpaw Iglesias is essentially a airy heavyweight who can reach 168 pounds and would also have significant height and an advantage over Adames. If Adames is sedate, he’s taking one of the toughest routes possible to make a super middleweight debut.

Ryan Garcia Says He Only Wants to Fight One Man Next: ‘I Don’t Want Anyone Else’

Ryan Garcia has been linked with a number of opponents for his next appearance, but he insists he is only targeting one fighter.
After many years as one of the biggest names in the sport, Garcia finally became world champion in February posted a dominant unanimous decision victory over Mario Barrios at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, where he won the WBC welterweight title.
Since that victory, rumors have circulated that “King Ry” would return against several different opponents, including WBO champion Devin Haney, WBA champion Rolly Romero and two-division world champion Teofimo Lopez.
For one reason or another, all of these fights fell through, and in recent weeks a recent favorite has emerged to fight Garcia, after British star Conor Benn defeated Regis Prograis at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier this month.
Following the victory, Benn immediately called out “King Ry” for a world title match, and Garcia was quick to respond as a war of words began between the two fighters.
In the recent movie captured by Fight Hub TVGarcia has now ruled out fighting anyone else and says Benn is the only person he wants to face.
“I can’t wait, man. It’ll be August. [I don’t want] Nobody [else]. I just want Conor.”
Benn is ranked No. 1 in the WBC welterweight rankings, so a clash with “King Ry” seemed like a formality, although Garcia’s promoter, Oscar De La Hoya, revealed a potential obstacle to that fight.
