Former WBC and WBO Super Bantamweight Stephen 'Cool Boy Steph' Fulton Jr (22-1, 8 Kos) champion says he is more “intelligent” than WBC champion in WBC Brandon Figueroa (25-1-1, 19 ko) and this will bear to win their rematch this Saturday night on February 1 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Four years after their first match on November 27, 2021, Fulton, 30, and Figueroa will meet for the second time on David Benavides' trimming against David Morel. The event will be shown live in PBC on Prime Video PPV.
Fulton robbed Figueroa, who won a 12 -round solution in a close -up of a razor. However, things have changed since then. The rematch will be 130, not 122, and Fulton is knocked out and hurt. He does not look like the same fighter who was when he defeated Figueroa.
Naoya Inoue dethroned Fulton on July 25, 2023 in the Eighth Round knockout in Tokyo, Japan. Inoue power made the battle completely one -sided. In Fulton's last match against Carlos Castro, he was surprisingly dropped into the fifth round and had to move and stay to survive.
Figueroa's youth and power could give him an advantage in this duel because he seems to be hitting more strongly than in the first match. If Fulton can no longer take a blow, it will be an early night. It can be anyway because Figueroa has improved.
“Being a world champion with two divisions would mean a lot to my career and means a lot to me. I had a great preparation for this match and everything is about to be prepared on Saturday night. I'll be ready.
“My thinking, my body and how I feel in this ring, this time will be different, but the result will be the same. I will win and I will not leave any doubts. I'm not worried about anything but to get the victory.
“We will both be better this time, but I have the feeling that I am the better person as a whole. I am more intelligent in the ring and have the feeling that I have a better set of skills. When I use these things, it all fixes me. “
