Argentina’s Chaves entered the contest as an unknown quantity, sporting an unbeaten record compiled solely in his home country.<\/p>\n

Madueno of Mexico had, meanwhile, built up a reputation as a tough gatekeeper.<\/p>\n

The rugged veteran had previously taken Keyshawn Davis and Steve Claggett the distance and had never been knocked down.<\/p>\n

Even the heavy-handed Oscar Duarte was unable to sweep him off his feet when he became the first man to stop Madueno in February 2025.<\/p>\n

Chaves had no such issues as he detonated an explosive left hand in the third round that left Madueno sprawled out on the canvas. <\/p>\n

Referee Harvey Dokes counted all the way up to 10, but it wasn’t needed.<\/p>\n

Madueno lay motionless on the canvas for over a minute before he, thankfully, sat up and began responding to the doctor.<\/p>\n

In victory, Chaves improves to 22-0, with 19 knockouts, while Madueno falls to 31-5.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old is already ranked by three of the four major sanctioning bodies, and will have put the division on notice with that heavy knockout.<\/p>\n

“A\u00a0huge\u00a0puncher, but got the skills with it,” Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn<\/a> said of Chaves. <\/p>\n

“You saw the power, but what you also saw was the way he set the shot up, his footwork, everything that came with it. <\/p>\n

“It wasn’t crude, it was really smart.<\/p>\n

“This young man is a\u00a0serious\u00a0\u00a0problem.”<\/p>\n

Chaves was snapped up by Matchroom Boxing earlier this month and was immediately thrust into the limelight with a chief support slot on the Jarrell Miller vs Lenier Pero bill.<\/p>\n

In the main event, Miller kept his career alive by outworking Pero in a slobber knocker fight.<\/p>\n
