World Boxing Council super bantamweight champion of Mexico, Luis “Pantera” Nery (31-0, 24KOs), will fight WBA super bantamweight champion Brandon Figueroa (21-0-1, 16KOs) in a unification.

Brandon Figueroa, 24, returns to the ring after his most recent fight in which he defeated Damien Vazquez in round 10, last September.

Brandon has trained for this fight that will define his career, alongside his brother and former world champion, Omar Figueroa.

“The training camp here in California with Joel Diaz has been incredible. I am in great physical shape and will be ready to win on May 15. This is truly one of the best training camps of my career.

“I know that Nery is a tough fighter, maybe my toughest test to date. I’m 24 years old now, so it’s time to start fighting these world-class fighters and prove to myself that I belong to the best in the world,” commented Figueroa.

The fight is promoted by the Premier Boxing Champions and will be televised on Showtime.
