Alejandro García Hernández (born July 18, 1979 in Tijuana, Mexico) is a professional boxer[1] in the super welterweight (154 lb) division.
Nicknamed "Terra", Garcia turned pro in 2000, winning his first 22 fights, including the WBA Light Middleweight Title by beating Santiago Samaniego in 2003. After a defense against former Olympian Rhoshii Wells, Garcia lost the belt to Travis Simms by 5th round KO. In 2005 he captured the interim WBA Light Middleweight Title by again beating Wells and defended it once before losing the belt to Jose Antonio Rivera in 2006.
