Professional career

Soto Karass holds wins over Michel Rosales, Saúl Román, Carson Jones, Vince Phillips, David Estrada, and Andre Berto. He is signed to Bob Arum's Top Rank.[2] His fight with Gabriel Martínez was ruled a No Contest after an unintentional headbutt.[3]

Soto Karass vs. Jones I, II

Jesús lost to Mike Jones on the undercard of Margarito vs. Pacquiao in Arlington, Texas on November 13, 2010. This fight was a huge controversy after the fight when the decision was ruled in favor of Mike Jones after a hard fought battle which saw Mike Jones become exhausted after the second round due to an attempt at finishing the fight. A rematch for this fight happened on February 19, 2011, with Karass losing a convincing fight holding his side.[4]
