Brandon Royval wants another crack at flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja.
Stepping up on short notice after Brandon Moreno’s originally scheduled opponent — Amir Albazi — bowed out due to a neck injury, Royval delivered a solid performance throughout their five-round headliner, earning a split-decision victory over ‘The Assassin Baby’ inside Mexico City’s Arena CDMX.
Following the contest, a fired-up Royval called out Pantoja, who was sitting cageside for the festivities.
“I’m a f*cking gangster. I’m the realest one in this flyweight division,” Royval said while speaking with Paul Felder.
