BROOKLYN, NY (December 18, 2011)—It took nearly two years but undefeated Cruiserweight Santander Silgado was unleashed for the first time on American soil as he scored an impressive second round knockout over Glenn Williams that past Thursday night in North Bergen, New Jersey

Silgado scored knockdowns in each of the two rounds with booming right hands with the latter shot ending the fight. Williams got to his fight but was on unsteady legs and the fight was waved off by referee Earl Morton at 2:51 of the round.

“It feels so great”, said an ecstatic twenty-six year old Silgado who ran his perfect mark to 19-0 with seventeen knockouts.

“Many Colombians do not get an opportunity to show their skills in the United States and I am thankful for the shot. I felt a little rusty and I missed the ring during the inactivity but I quickly felt comfortable in there.”

“I need two or three more fights and I am ready to fight anybody in the Cruiserweight division”

Silgado of Monteria, Colombia but now training in Brooklyn, New York is promoted by Rob Diaz and Havoc Boxing Promotions
