Jorge Luis Gonzales: Damn what a downfall

Helluva amateur career and an ok pro....better than most guys will ever dream about

 

At least he got to beat Riddick and Lennox at one point.

 

Yeah, he fell apart mentally after the Bowe fight.

 

Just a testement to how different the am's and pros are.
There are a lot of things that need to be done differently when you are figting 12 x 3 rounds bashing your opponant till he quits as opposed to 4 x 2 of essentially tapping and running.

These new batch of cubans need to make those adjustments. Not everyone is going to fold in 2 rounds.

 

God i thought bowe was lazy

 

The Cuban amateurs were trained for three round amateur fights. While they are highly skilled, most of them are not prepared for the pro game. Especially, since most of them have had several hundred amateur fights and leave them burnt out for the pro sport.

 

Another Cuban is on his way to enter the pro ranks: According to Ahmet Öner, Erislandy Lara flew from Cuba and will be fighting under the arena banner in a short... (BoxSport magazine).

 

nice but how did he get out of cuba

 

Don't know how Öner has done it this time, but word is that Lara is already out of Cuba...

 

thats good to hear i hope Guillermo Rigondeaux gets out too

 

One of those could-have-been, should-have-been Heavyweights. A bloody shame he didn't apply himself.

 

Please God, I Hope Rigondeaux Is Out Aswell. That Would Be A Dream

 

Sorry, but there are no news about Rigo...
