Comments

• Cuello came out strong and aggressive in Round 1, looking to follow his jab with a left hand. Santana was primarily on the defensive but did manage a few punches. Cuello, as the telecast showed, actually threw two backhand rights neither of which drew a warning from referee Pete Santiago.
• In Round 2, Cuello grabbed the back of Santana's neck while he was bending down and landed 5+ blatant rabbit punches.
• Cuello the former kick boxer, with no amateur record, defeated a boxer who had not lost in five years.
