Legendary wrestling star “Hijo del Santo” who`s proved himself a worthy heir to the silver mask that his Father initially made so famous, is also one of the icons of WBC Cares, visiting, chatting with and inspiring children who are often battling life threatening illness.
On a sweltering afternoon of November 14, 2007, in Manila, Philippines, Hijo Del Santo won the gold and green honorary belt for the first time in the history of the World Boxing Council. It was in a fight where he fought Japan`s Kamui, winning with well executed vice like locks until he achieved the submission of his opponent.
