    I understand that once they turn pro they have a whole new start and career in front of them. I think the main problem with our boxers is that they think that since they already won numerous World Titles and Gold medals, that they are " stars already " ( and they do have a valid point ) therefore don't need to train like the others. Atlas said this about the Cubans ...

    But the amateur experience is a huge plus! How do you think that Rigondeaux was able to beat Cordoba, with his amateur experience or his pro experience? The answer is: with what he learned in Cuba ...

    Our fighters basically have the same style, the same skills and arsenals of when they were amateurs but have adapted to the longer pro fights. All they need to do is update their skills with a good pro Coach.

    I disagree with people who say that pro boxing is much better than the amateurs. There are amateurs who are much better than pros! ;)

    We are talking pro boxing here, not amateurs. But either way, nice list! ;)

    I'd probably have Luis Ortiz somewhere near the back end. He's not a prospect per se, but I think he'd fare well against a number of top 10 heavyweights.

    Which fight impressed you? I saw him vs Pineda, and he disappointed. He got really sloppy after a couple of rounds, and out of ideas. I see he TKOed Zack Page in his 4th fight, which is excellent on paper, haven't seen it.

    Luis Garcia is a better boxer than Collado/Acosta and Mike Perez and will achieve more in the game IMO.

    He could be Ray Robinson but if he doesn't fight he will achieve nothing...
