MEMORANDUM ***
Petitioner Jose Manuel Higareda-Cris-terna appeals a final order of removal affirmed by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”). The BIA adopted the Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) order to the extent that the IJ found that Higareda-Cristerna knowingly engaged in alien smuggling and to the extent that the IJ denied Higareda-Cristerna’s application for cancellation of removal as a matter of discretion. We deny the petition.
The agency has the burden of proving that Higareda-Cristerna “knowingly encouraged, induced, assisted, abetted, or aided in alien smuggling,” see 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(l)(E)(i), by “clear and convincing evidence,” id. § 1229a(c)(3)(A). See Hernandez-Guadarrama v. Ashcroft, 394 F.3d 674, 676 (9th Cir.2005). We “review for reasonable, substantial, and probative evidence in the record as a whole, [and] ... affirm only if the agency has successfully carried this heavy burden of clear, unequivocal, and convincing evidence.” Id. at 679 (internal quotation marks omitted; alteration omitted).
Four border patrol agents testified that they witnessed the smuggling incident, and two identified Higareda-Cristerna as an active participant. Although Higareda-Cristerna denied all involvement in the smuggling venture, given the amount of evidence against him and inconsistencies in his testimony, the IJ’s decision to credit the agents’ testimony over the Petitioner’s was supported by substantial evidence. Moreover, the record shows that the IJ gave the Petitioner ample opportunity to explain the inconsistencies raised by the evidence and therefore there was no due process violation.
We do not have jurisdiction to review the BIA’s decision to deny Higareda-Cris-terna’s application for cancellation of removal as a matter of discretion. See Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 890 (9th Cir.2003) (stating the court lacks jurisdiction to consider “[any] discretionary decisions involved in the cancellation of removal context, including the ultimate discretionary decision to deny relief’); see also Fernandez v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 592, 600 & n. 5 (9th Cir.2006) (stating that this court does not have jurisdiction to consider the ultimate discretionary decision to deny relief).
