Andy Cruz got the win tonight in boxing results in the US and is emerging as an unexpected fighter to keep an eye on.
Andy Cruz beat Omar Salcido by unanimous decision tonight in Las Vegas.
A good boxer the Cuban, but like all Cubans, very unpredictable when it comes to the highest level of professional boxing in terms of predicting how they will fare long-term.
After the fight Cruz approached both Shakur Stevenson and Keyshawn Davis who he may be eying as future opponents.
Cruz beat Keyshawn Davis in the amateurs but the pros is totally different.
Amateur boxing in Cuba while good is nothing compared to the highest level of professional boxing at world title level.
Guillermo Rigondeaux, Erislandy Lara, David Morrell from Cuba and others (Luis Ortiz not quite) in recent decades did make the move to world championship boxing successfully from Cuba — but not many ever did.
Cruz will look to be one the exceptions as well.
