Exclusive photos from Puerto Rico as bantamweight prospect Alexis Santiago (16-3-1, 7 KO’s) and his team settle into life on the island ahead of his Aug. 2 clash vs. unbeaten Emmanuel Rodriguez (9-0, 5 KO’s) at the Coliseo Cosme Beitia Salamo in Catano.

Santiago spent the core part of his camp training out of the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas, Nevada before making an early trek to the island to settle in ahead of the Rodriguez match. Santiago is on the island with his trainer Rafael Ramos, his brother Ricky, friend Louis Olivera, and sparring mate Paul “Ziggy” Romero.
