Magsayo said this to gmanetwork.com about his upcoming bout against Figueroa, “The winner of this fight is going to be the fans. I’m coming back stronger than ever. I learned from my last fight that I needed to adjust for a fighter with a reach advantage like Rey Vargas. I really thought I won the fight, but I respect the judges. I’m coming to use my power and damage and hit Figueroa hard. I guarantee that this is going to be a great fight. Figueroa is strong and always comes forward. But I’m strong too and that’s going to make this fight one you don’t want to miss.”
Figueroa said this to badlefthook.com about his upcoming bout against Magsayo, “(Mark) Magsayo is an amazing fighter and I expect a lot from him. I’ve been in Las Vegas for over a month and things are going great. Magsayo is a strong fighter, but I’m a strong fighter as well. I have what it takes to take this fight right to him and show the world that I have the same power at featherweight. Everyone knows that I come to fight. Come March 4, everyone is going to see what kind of fighter I am at 126-pounds. I know exactly what I’m doing when I fight inside the pocket. When I’m inside, I’m really comfortable and I know how to work. I can let my body shots off from there. We’ve worked on a lot of things though, because I know Magsayo is a heavy hitter like me.”
