Otherwise known as 'The Latin Snake'. The winner of the first (and currently only) series of 'The Contender'. Never defeated in the programme, and beat title favourite Ishe and Peter Manfredo (the latter whom he beat in the final). A tall and not particularly muscular guy, his strength lies in his mind, a very mentally strong figure. His victory enabled his family to fight emerge from poverty, and his name to emerge into the world of boxing.
