Figali Convention Center; Panama City, Panama
South African, “Baby Jake” Matlala 38-13-1 (19) had little difficulty defeating Robinson Cuesta 23-3-2 (14), who was fighting in his home country of Panama, at Panama City’s “Figali Convention Center”.
The 8,000+ fans who showed up to cheer on Cuesta were mostly quiet during the contest, as Matlala took the fight to Cuesta in round one and never let up. Each round was similar to the previous with Matala coming forward and Cuesta attempting unsuccessfully to fire back and keep Matlala off him. In the 7th and 8th rounds Cuesta hit the canvas. When he went down again in the 10th and final round there was no need to count as the prone Panamanian was clearly not going to be able to rise.

“Baby Jake” will now travel to Japan to face the WBA title holder Hiroka Ioka 19-5-1 (9).
