== Biography ==
During the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, De Jesús became the first Puerto Rican to win an Olympic boxing fight since Daniel Santos earned a bronze medal at the 1996 Atlanta, Georgia games. De Jesús defeated Brazilian Myke Carvalho by decision during the first round of the competition to achieve that accomplishment. In the second round, however, he lost by one point (23-24), to Sam Rukundo from Ugandan.
De Jesús' nickname used to be "El Pollo Whitaker", meaning "Chicken Whitaker". "El Pollo" was given to him by his parents because he was a very small child. "Whitaker" was given to him by his trainers at the boxing gym, because they thought Alexander's style of fighting was reminiscent of the one presented by Pernell Whitaker. He announced just before the Olympics, however, that he was dropping off the "Whitaker" part from his nickname because he wanted to form his own identity as a boxer
