    Is Santiago his mandotary, because if he isn't it seems like a dangerous volutary defence for Luevano.

    I'll pick Luevano by UD anyhow.

    I dont know much about Santiago how good is he? Luevano is actually a cousin of one of my co-workers ive been following him for a while ever since Tecate fights on friday nights.

    hes a mexican decendant. Most Mexicans dont forget where they come from since its just a border away. I consider myself mexican because I speak spanish and my culture is mexican based, however on paper I am americano. Anyways I would still represent Mexico.

    I pick Luevano. I have also been following his career since when he only had under 10 fights. He is a great tactician, but he has his flaws which are inactivity. It might be a tough fight.

    The guy is born in C.A. California bud, so might might have a Mexican decendants but he is more of American.

    Anyway back to the fight . . . this should be exciting . . . Santiago's only lost was against Hector Velasquez. He was way behind on points and was putting the heat when a headbutt occured and the fight was stopped at the 10th round.

    Santiago is 19(15 KOs) - 1 - 0.

    That's not my point . . . all I'm saying he is "more" of an American because he was born inside U.S. and was raised up embrasing American culture. In fact I doubt if he has ever visited Mexico, all his fights were inside U.S.

    Dude, he lives 5 minutes away from me. I live in South El Monte, he lives in La Puente, I gurantee you he has atleast been to TJ MX.

    That chances of him ever being in MX are greater than him not.

    Besides, living in La Puente Ca, is pretty much living in a MX culture, 99% MX pop..

    Well if your dan and mom are born in puerto rico but you born in usa then yes but if you have a father and a mother born in the usa but with puertorrican decendant, for me that dosen't count ala Luis Collazo. Jhon Ruiz for example he count as a puertorrican because he was born in the usa but his father and mother are born and lived for years in puerto rico and even Ruiz live in puerto rico so that count.
