Currently a firefighter in his adopted hometown of Houston, Texas, the former amateur standout has issued professional defeats to the likes of Dairo Esalas, Said El Harrak and John Brown thus far in his career. When he makes his California debut on February 24, it's with the intention of becoming the first man to defeat hot prospect Jessie Vargas.
