Outstanding Cuban-Greco-Roman fighter who gave the Cuban delegation the first of the 14 titles won at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, giving Cuba one of the brightest glorious pages in the history of the Olympics.
Known in youth as Lazo de Cuero for his great mastery in the art of batting, where he was later called the Volcano of Rio Feo for his great skill in giving homerun with men on base. University World Champion, Intercontinental Cup Champion and double Pan American Champion.
