TOLEDO, OH (Júní 25, 2015)–This past Saturday night at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif., top lightweight prospect SONNY FREDRICKSON (9-0, 6 Rothögg) had to dig down deep and get up from the canvas on his way to stopping tough 29-fight veteran Juan Santiago in the second round of their scheduled six-round bout which took place on the Andre Ward vs. Paul Smith undercard.

Fredrickson dominated the first round and it was looking like an easy night as he scored a knockdown at the end of the frame. As Fredrickson went in for the finish, he was a little careless and got caught with a perfect counterpunch that sent him the canvas for the first time as a pro or amateur.

Fredrickson sýndi leysa af meistari í burðarliðnum, came back in round two and landed some booming shots that hurt Santiago and the fight was rightfully waved off.

“Það var mikill lærdómur reynsla,” sagði Fredrickson af fyrstu
umferð knockdown. “Santiago var sterkur, I got a little reckless and paid the price. Jafnvel særðir andstæðingurinn er stilldangerous, svo ég mun örugglega taka þetta verkefni að hjarta að gera mér abetter bardagamaður.”

“Ég er ánægður með sigurinn og að gefa fans spennandi sýning. I’m going to get right back in the gym and look forward to fighting again very soon.
