    I predict a bad night for Pedro R. I'm surprised they went through with this. Hopefully after this fight he wakes up and realizes he belongs at 175 where I think he'll do really good. Hopefully what's coming to him tonight doesn't ruin him. Only 2 more hours, lets see what happens.

    ... as expected Pedro was decimated in two round last night, and his 50 pounds overweight were to much to carry after an intense first round. I saw it comming already at the very confirmation of that bout, too much lechón y pizzas with his trainer Osmiri ..

    Great win for Yoan Hernandez! Seems that we are producing the best Cruiserweight Champions. First we had Juan Carlos Gomez ( one of the best Cruisers of all times ) and now Hernandez. Cuba is dominating the Cruisers now with Hernandez being #1.

    Seems that Rances is one of our very best prospects, great win for him.

    So far our best fighters are in this order ...

    #1- Yuriorkis Gamboa - former WBA-IBF World Champ, top 10 P4P fighter
    #2- Guillermo Rigondeaux - WBA World Champion
    #3- Yoan Hernandez- IBF/Ring magazine World Champion
    #4- Odlanier Solis ( if he stays in shape )
    #5- Erislandy Lara
    #6- Mike Perez
    #7- Richard Abril - WBA interim Champion
    #8- Rances Barthelemy
    #9- Luis Franco
    #10- Luis Ortiz

    Other top Cubans: Barrera, Salinas, Ugas, Jhonson, Garcia, Dorticos are also all up there in terms of solid talent.

    That's my Cuban top 10 right there!

    Great list , agree with most of it , only I would place Solis at the bottom ( he still needs to prove himself to us ) , at least Lara fought and defeated P.Williams . Peace .:good

    nice list, but if you mean this given order based on achievements then definitely Yoan Pablo is before Rigondeaux and Richard Abril before Solis, Lara and Perez, but if you mean potential in the future my list would seen very diferent from both:

    Friday 10 , Luis Ortiz vs epifanio Mendoza for one of those latino whatever belt.
    If Ortiz wins-and he should-it's time to move up against bigger fishes.Time to find out where he belongs.

    If a fight Gamboa-Rios did not take place. Where and when will fight Solis?

    The time came a long time ago, but Ortiz with his 32 years on his shoulders is still fighting nobodies. Mendoza probably was the only option, but he probably costs no more than a Cuban jinetera ...(he already fought Savigne, Barrera and Dorticós)

    Nonito Donaire has turned down a mouth watering clash against Guillermo Rigondeaux and has deprived boxing fans of a fight they deserve to see. :patsch
