    what... are you kidding me ? i think you dont know your history of cuban boxing bro, stick to something else

    Kindelans record of 358W - 22L is no were close to Rigondeaux's 247W - 4L (mistake on first post sorry)

    and Kindelan has 7 gold medals at the age of 33, has no chance of getting another one, on the other hand Rigondeaux got 6 at the age of 24... so imageine how many he will have by time hes 33, he also has the possiblity of being the only fighter to ever capture 4 Olympic Medals, having won 2 at only 23 years old

    Where did you find that?

    Joe's book thinks he lost about 6 fights.

    Too bad Rigondeaux will never accomplish any of those feats, because in all likelihood he will never box internationally again.

    Sure! 3 Olympic gold medals must mean something.
    By the way:

    he was one of the youngest amature champions in history, was in the olympics, and composed a record of about 110-11... not sure but those are the numbers that i remember.

    The mother of all understatements, Papp wins this debate fairly easy IMO.
