   MEMORANDUM

William Eberto Ruiz-Juarez, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence factual findings. Silaya v. Mukasey, 524 F.3d 1066, 1070 (9th Cir.2008). We deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the agency’s determination that Ruiz-Juarez failed to show extraordinary circumstances to excuse the untimely filing of his asylum application. See 8 C.F.R § 1208.4(a)(5). Accordingly, his asylum claim fails.

The record does not compel the conclusion that the harms Ruiz-Juarez and his family suffered in Guatemala amounted to past persecution. See Gu v. Gonzales, 454 F.3d 1014, 1019-20 (9th Cir.2006) (brief detention and beating did not compel finding of persecution); Hoxha v. Ashcroft, 819 F.3d 1179, 1182 (9th Cir.2008) (“The one incident of physical violence against Hoxha was not connected with any particular threat and there is no evidence indicating that the incident was officially sponsored.”). Thus, Ruiz-Juarez is not entitled to a presumption of future persecution. See Molina-Estrada v. INS, 293 F.3d 1089, 1096 (9th Cir.2002). Further, substantial evidence supports the agency’s finding that Ruiz-Juarez failed to demonstrate it is more likely than not he will be persecuted if he returns to Guatemala. See Nagoulko v. INS, 333 F.3d 1012, 1018 (9th Cir.2003) (possibility of future persecution too speculative). Accordingly, Ruiz-Juarez’s withholding of removal claim fails.

Finally, substantial evidence supports the agency’s denial of CAT relief because Ruiz-Juarez failed to establish that it is more likely than not he will be tortured if he returns to Guatemala. See Silaya, 524 F.3d at 1073.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
