    Frank Sanchez Faure, Cuban HW pro, http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/814335, who is listed as 26 y.o. but looks like 56 y.o., KO'd Willie Jake Jr in 2 rounds. The only other Jake's loss happened against another prospect Jermaine Franklin (now 17-0, 13 KOs), by 5th round stoppage.

    An impressive win for Cuban who doesn't look any younger than Louis Ortiz.

    26? lol yikes maybe he is 26 but sure as hell looks much older.

    I understand the theory of lying about your age in this society. When I tell people I'm 27 & just now about to finishing my BA people get all snooty. If this cat said his real age people could hold it against him & promotors are usually money hounding scumbags who would think he's "Too old". Age is just a number people are too ****ing judgemental it's sick.

    I tend to think it's a logical theory for instance as a teenager my grandfather didn't even know his true age when he came to America.
    Maybe this Boxer is only 26 but sure as hell look much older lol

    In Cuba they must put something in the drinking water, that's the reason why a centenarian like Ortiz was able to hang with Wilder. Father time once visited Ortiz, the vicious Cuban beat the living crap out of him and told him to go back to his room.

    Jesus he looks OLD! These Cuban have got poor genes or don't look after themselves. They make terrible pro boxers as well.
