Sporting relatives:

His cousin Yordani Fernandez has represented Cuba in Para judo, and won bronze in the 100kg category at the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. (SportsDeskOnline, 26 Nov 2019; cubasi.cu, 10 Feb 2019)

He took up the sport at age seven in Colon, Cuba. He was away from the sport for a while because his coach left the country. "I played baseball in the meantime because some cousins told me to do so. But I later came back to judo." (cubasi.cu, 10 Feb 2019)

To win gold at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. (cubadebate.cu, 11 Aug 2019)

He trains at the Cerro Pelado High Performance Athletes School in Havana, Cuba. (cubasi.cu, 17 Oct 2020)

WEIGHT CLASS CHANGE
In 2017 he moved up from the 81kg category to the 90kg class. "The change was basically because I was struggling to get under 81kg due to my own physical development. My first year in the 90kg category was 2017 and I cannot consider it a bad move. I won the national and Pan American championships. In 2018 I finished my transition period to the new class. I was national champion again and the inclusion of [fellow Cuban judoka] Asley Gonzalez motivated me to train much harder and raise my level." (cubasi.cu, 10 Feb 2019)

MEDAL DEDICATION
He dedicated the gold medal he won at the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima, Peru, to his father who had died just days before the competition. "Wherever he might be, he deserves this gold." (cubadebate.cu, 11 Aug 2019)
