Undefeated Wilfredo Vazquez, Jr. of Puerto Rico captured the vacant WBO junior featherweight title by knocking out Marvin Sonsona of the Philippines in the 4th round at the Coleseo Ruben Rodriguez in Bayamon, Puerto Rico moments ago.
Vazquez fought a measured fight throwing well-timed power shots to the body of Sonsona and with a left hook to the liver finally sending Sonsona down and out to the canvas at 1:06 in the 4th round.
Sonsona took the first round by fighting from the distance but in the second round Vazquez started landing his power shots and cut Sonsona under the left eye with a right. From that point on Vazquez put on the pressure as Sonsona kept on backing up until Vazquez caught him with a barrage of punches.
Vazquez captured his first title and upped his record to 18-0-1 with 15 knockouts while Sonsona suffered his first defeat and went down to 14-1-1 with 12 knockouts.
