Newark, NJ / Manchester, NH (November 22nd 2021)--Five fighters from the DKO Management stable all came out victorious with four knockouts in Newark, New Jersey and a unanimous decision in Manchester, New Hampshire.
At the Robert Treat Hotel in Newark, super middleweight Elvis Figueroa, super featherweight William Foster III, junior welterweight Jeffrey Torres and featherweight Felix Parrilla all scored impressive stoppage victories.
Figueroa stopped Arsenio Hall at 39 seconds of round two. Figueroa dropped Hall twice in the opening round, and dropped Hall for a third and the fight was stopped.
Figueroa of New Haven, Connecticut is now 9-0 with six knockouts. Hall was stopped for the first time and is now 3-5.
Foster moved to 13-0 with nine knockouts by taking out Pedro Hernandez in the opening round. Foster scored one knockdown, and the New Haven native will look for a high profile fight in the beginning of 2022.

Parrilla went to 2-0 with two knockouts as he needed just 45 seconds to take out Dakota Laster.
