Who, in your opinion, is the best active Cuban pro today? Morrell? Robeisy? Old man Erislandy? Who's the best and why?
I like Cruz but I have my doubts about Bozy. Boots is athletic and a good counterpuncher but he's awful on the front foot and has pretty bad fundamentals. Cubans have a long history of being mismanaged and judging by Bozy's track record with Boots and the fact Boots has had only a single win against a ranked opponent more than 30 fights into his career and got his belt via email doesn't fill me with confidence personally.
Boots is the goods, he just takes risks. Hes not like the other slick US fighters, I think he is special, we will wait and see but I think he becomes undisputed at 147. He padded his record for experience and is on track to clear the division. Imo only Stanionis can stop the hype train
Erislandy Lara (Because of seniority) David Morrell jr (The flagship) Andy Cruz Robeisy Ramirez Osley Iglesias Yoenis Tellez Jadier Herrera Yunier Dorticos Pablo Vicente Yoenli Hernandez William Scull LenierPero This is the way I see it.
Osleys Iglesias or Yoenli Hernandez. Dayan Gonzalez is also right there. I'd like to see Cruz a little more active.
Do Cubans still need to flee Cuba and lie about their age to fight In Pro ranks these days or has it relaxed since Castro died?
It’s between Andy Cruz and David Morrell for me. Maybe Robeisy Ramirez if he avenges his loss against Espinoza.
Dunno but jeez Erislandy Lara gets props from me, if only because he smashed that clown Michael Zerafa into next week.
That bare knuckle joker who is knocking out everyone in the first round, might be Louis Ortiz great grandson.
