                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Mexican citizen Jose Barron petitions for review of an order of the Board of
Immigration Appeals (BIA), which upheld an immigration judge’s decision denying
him asylum and withholding of removal. After careful review, we find no basis for
granting the petition, as the BIA’s denial of relief was supported by substantial
evidence on the record as a whole. See Cubillos v. Holder, 
565 F.3d 1054
, 1056-58
(8th Cir. 2009) (substantial-evidence standard for asylum claim; denial of asylum
dictates same outcome on withholding-of-removal claim based on same underlying
factual allegations). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review. See 8th Cir. R.
47B.
