Lua had not fought for two years before the comeback KO

He wasted little time in making a grand impact, as he featured on a behind closed doors Top Rank event in Las Vegas last weekend.

In the second round the pair were throwing heavy shots in close but Lua closed the show with a left hook that momentarily left Norambuena frozen and stiff as he was dropped.

Also on the card, former Vasyl Lomachenko opponent Jose Pedraza defeated Javier Molina.

But heavyweight prospect Efe Ajagba failed to impress as he was taken to points by Jonathan Rice.

The bill, promoted by Bob Arum, comes as he prepares to announce Terence Crawford’s next fight.

WBO welterweight champion Crawford, 32, has agreed to fight Kell Brook, 34, on November 14.

According to The Athletic, a deal has been struck between the pair with official confirmation now to follow.

Brook told told ESPN: “As I said, I would fight Terence Crawford in his backyard. Inside that squared circle is home for me.

“It doesn’t matter where the fight is. I’ve got the self-belief, I’m very strong, and I know what I can do in there.

“He boxed a guy, Ricky Burns, from England, that he couldn’t stop.

“He’s obviously grown and gotten a lot better, but believe you me, you’ll know when you see the fight, I can definitely hurt this guy 100 per cent.

“This is the biggest test. This is the fight that the fans need at this time with what’s going on in the world.”
