[freddy-wak]

angelo santana...even though he looks like joey from friends, the dudes a banger and plays no ****en games in the ring...

school me on this kid....someone ?

[Kid Cubano]

Santana has an interesting story, he escaped Cuba in a raft following his sweetheart .Had a decent amateur background but wasn't somebody of note at the high level. Have a reputation of heavy hitter and good chin. He called himself before the fight a Cuban who fights like a Mexican. Since trained by Rubio- same trainer as rigondeaux- his boxing skills have improved, he's more patient and better balance. Learning and only 24 yrs old. Next to rigondeaux has learned more than 2 things.

He reminds me of Ríos, body type, movements, looks, but he's a better boxer.

not really...santana is stiff as a board, but he packs so much into every punch that he can get away with that shit...brandon moves from side to side a lot, and crouches....this dude is as straight as they come, but his hands make him hella dangerous....not to mention his sniper like reflexes....kind of reminded me of kostya tsyzu

I was impressed with Santana and would love to see him fight again. He's the little guy who gets picked on by a bully then boxes the bully's ears off and KTFO him.

[Str8ryte]

That shit made me laugh..like you could never get used to another Cuban. I know what u meant though.

[IntentionalButt]

Santana still has rough edges, but is smoothing them down.

This KO is from 2009:


Here are his last three:




Guerra la Cobra! He can definitely make some waves in the 135-140 range.

[Mamerto]

Impressive so far, he's scored 7 KOs in a row.
