Edwin De Los Santos is a Dominican professional boxer who once competed for the vacant WBC lightweight world title against Shakur Stevenson.
According to De Los Santos he only lost 12 times in over 100 fights. He also said he traveled the world as part of the Dominican Republican national team. [1]
After winning the first 13 fights of his career all in his native Dominican Republic, De Los Santos made his U. S. debut. He faced unbeaten American William Foster III. Despite starting off strong Foster turned the fight aorund and hurt De Los Santos in the final round. Two judges scored the fight in Fosters favour handing De Los Santos his first defeat by split decision [2] De Los Santos rebounded with a 2nd round stoppage of the unbeaten Luis Acosta. He then faced highly touted unbeaten Jose Valenzuela on the undercard of Andy Ruiz vs Luis Ortiz. De Los Santos recovered from a first round knockdown to knock Valenzuela down in the 2nd and 3rd rounds for a shock 3rd round stoppage win. [3]
After Devin Haney announced he was vacating his belts, De Los Santos faced 2 weight world champion Shakur Stevenson. In what was a pretty dull fight Stevenson became a 3 weight world champion by winning a unanimous points decision. [4]
