    Yes, Ugas should win 60-54 or on ko fighting a guy with a record 6-4
    But i think he need to grow into the welterweight. His weight back in Cuba was 141 pound /64 kg. Now he is 147 pound.

    A cuban fighter who might deserve more attention is Richard Abril. He is ranked number 5 in WBA and number 10 in WBC lightweight. He is 29 years old and have 16 wins and 2 losses. Debut as a pro came 2005

    More logic if Riondeaux and Donaire met in a year from now. Do not think any of the beltholders in 122 pound would meet Rigo/Don

    I like Abril. In my eyes he's 17-1. The Prescott decision was pretty bad. I had him Winning that fight. His other Loss was also really close. Haven't seen that one though.

    Our best top 4 Cubans are Gamboa, Rigondeaux, Lara and Solis without a doubt. Then the list goes down to other solid prospects like Luis Franco, Mike Perez, Rances Barthelemy, Yuniesky Gonzalez, Angelo Santana, Luis Ortiz, Yudel Jhonson, Acosta, Yoandry Salinas etc. There are others but they are still very young but promise a lot like Socarraz, Ugas, Luis Garcia, Glendy Hernandez, Leduan Barthelemy and others.

    Agree very much, But what about Pedro Julio Rodriguez and Vilier Quononez. Both need more fights but i like what i see.
