    Lara has really impressed me with how advanced he is after only 5 fights. He's much farther ahead than about anyone else would be, even with all the amateur fights.

    How good to you think Rigondaux can be? Who would you compare him with as far as where he's rated right now compared to past prospects turning pro?

    we'll see how rigo can adjust to pro,he's by far the most technical boxer in the last 10 yrs in Cuba,but sometimes the transition and diversions from amateur to pro (besides the american way of life)affect the performance.Hope he's smart enough to adjust(because talent he has enough)

    Let's spell his name correctly: His name is Guillermo Rigondeaux(not Rigondaux) :deal. I remember the confusion with the name of Diosbelys Hurtado. Is there any video of today's press conference?
