Soft-spoken, thin and possessing a boyish smile, Leo Santa Cruz doesn’t appear to be a dangerous man. But much like his nickname “El Terremoto,” which means “the earthquake,” Santa Cruz shakes up his opponents with a seemingly endless torrent of pinpoint-accurate body punches, having earned world titles in three weight classes. After losing his championship status in 2016, the Mexican-American California native has now reclaimed his 126-pound world title.
