LAS VEGAS--Leo Santa Cruz won virtually every second of his featherweight debut, dominating countryman Jose Cayetano over 10 rounds Saturday evening at MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Scores were 100-90 across the board in a bout that served as little more than a chance for Santa Cruz - a former titlist at bantamweight and junior featherweight - to test the featherweight waters.
