    I thought they were allowing pros now?

    They are but Cruz was licked out of the team for “lack of effort”.
    He obviously wanted out.

    He needs to sign with Top Rank. The best LW are there, it could really ignite the division

    Its weird. Even though they are allowed to go pro to my knowledge the government still have total control of their careers. So the athletes are still pretty much in the same predicament as before..

    Whenever a hot new prospect from Cuba is on the come up, I know what division I'll be avoiding for the next 15 years, or until said Cuban is knocked out.

    Another Cuban to utterly, absolutely, unashamedly stink the joint out every.single.fight.

    Can't wait till Ryan Garcia knocks that ass straight back to ****ing Cuba.

    Ryan Garcias won't even beat Devin Haney

    He has no chance against Andy Cruz. Absolutely tailor made for Andy. Should be focusing on Issac Cruz for now

    Not to the extent of, say, signing with a US promoter and fighting in events here. I'm also not sure if that event even happened or if more are coming.

    I mean, is he going to lose his first fight against an unknown cab driver like Robeisy Ramirez?
    I heard all that same talk about Erislandy Lara and then watched him shake his ass around the ring and literally run against Clenelo, the same Clenelo that just had been absolutely undressed and lost 12rds in his previous fight.

    Many of this generation of Cubans who've turned over have pretty fan friendly and aggressive styles
