I knew you'd catch that.

One fight. That's all it was... and relatively early in his career.

Other than that, he's never ventured outside the friendly confines of the Mexico-Texas-Southern California triangle, which of course includes Vegas. I have more respect for fighters who go to what would be considered hostile territory.... like Salido did when he came over and KO'ed JuanMa twice. I may not like Salido... but I respect that kind of thing.
