This is probably a long shot, but does anyone have any footage of Rigondeaux losing an amature bout? He lost in the 2003 world championships to Aghasi Mammadov but I couldn't find anythin on youtube.
How many Amateur losses does Rigondeaux have? It seems as though all Cuban Amateurs fight with their hands down, except for Savon ...
he has over 243wins at amature and only 5 losses that i can find Carlos CUADRA (MEX) in 2007 Agasi MAMEDOV (AZE) in 2003 Waldemar FONT (CUB) in 1999 Beksat SATTARKHANOV (KAZ) in 1998 Rencise PÉREZ (CUB) in 1998
we all know that the pros is a totally different ball game than the amateurs ... I can tell you this, he's not special in the sense that he's going to be a hall of fame pro ... but he has the potential to be a world champion. He will lose but I don't see that happening for quite some time. he will lose as well as gamboa ... that one gold medalist ... Bartelemi was stopped ... i'm sure that all those others (outside of Lara) will taste the same fate, maybe even worse.
