    Daniel Santos

    Is this guy an avoided fighter? Does he not deserve big fights? he has 3 losses. 2 of them in europe in oppononts backyard. and 1 of them avenged by KO in the 5th round. only legit loss is to Jantuah back in 1999. Gave Margarito all he can handle in 2004, prety even fight before it was stopped due to a cut by accidental headbutt, but for some strange reason they never fought again..

    To me there hasnt been any proof of him not deserving bigger fights, I say he has only 1 legit loss. and other 2. one was avenged with a KO, and the other was 115-112 on all 3 cards in europe..

    what yall think??

    Does he deserve bigger fights? Is he avoided? Underrated?? whats the deal?

    I've been hearing that Santos had a title fight lined up, but I haven't seen one scheduled. I don't think Don King is serving him well anymore as a promoter. Santos is still a tough guy to beat.

      havn't seen him fight in a long time, but if he is still as good as he used to be he's a tough fight for anybody, he was what Winky was a borring fighter that few wanted to fight by choice. The was Santos fought Margarito in there 2nd fight this was out of the norm for Santos but he gained my respect and if you can beat Campas then you are good enough to fight for a title.

              Good management gets their guys fights. That's how they make money. You don't get a monthly check for being the #1 contender.

                I don't think Don King has done that great a job. The Alcine fight has been on the hook for a while already and they still do not seem close to fighting. It can't be that bad though aslong as he makes good on his big shot comming up. In the 154 division there are no great fighter maybe he could clean up he has a shot.
