That said, the Brazilian took him down in the very first round. After dealing with adversity early in Round 1, Jackson was again taken down in the opening seconds of Round 2. Once more, Figueiredo looked confident as he dictated the pace and kept Jackson on the back foot.In Round 3, 'Deus da Guerra' played it safe.
