The Future of CUBA in the Pros, by Weightclasses. (List Inside) ***UPDATED/VIDEO***

Can someone attend the card with a videocamera or steal the video footage off Heavyweight Factory? I'd love to see Ortiz' last two and upcoming fight.

BTW, according to the official site, Ortiz weighed in at 238 which is too heavy IMO. I think he could easily lose 10 pounds or more, 225 would be an excellent weight.

 

Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

Oliver McCall 253 ¼ vs. Fres Oquendo 222 ¼
Brad Solomon 145 ½ vs. Anges Adjaho 147 ½*

Inocente Fiz 150 1/2 ** vs. Anthony Woods 144 ½
Yasmany Consuegra 231 ½ vs. Watson Pierre 253 ¼

*Adjaho was over ½ lb. and Solomon allowed the weight for their bout.
**Fiz was over ½ lb. but made contracted weight of 150 lbs. on his second attempt

 

Good to se Salinas back. He was high ranked in Cuba.like Franco, they both in the interesting 126 pound division.

 

Light-heavy Sullivan Barrera is ranked number 14 in WBA
Already Yordanis Despaigne is number 9 in WBC.

Undefeated Cuban junior middleweight Inocente Fiz stopped Anthony Woods by TKO victory 23 seconds into the 6th round. . Featherweight Yoadris Salinas won by split decision against spirited Mexican challenger Danny Aquino. Magomed Abdusalamov added another TKO victim to his undefeated record, stopping Jerry Butler at 2minutes, 39 seconds of the second round. Cuban heavyweight Luiz Ortiz stopped tough Puerto Rican challenger Francisco Alvarez by TKO victory at 1:27 of the 8th round.

(The Richard Abril-Miguel Mungia bout was postponed until Friday for the card scheduled at the Kissimmee Civic Center due to Mungia not providing medicals in time for tonight’s card

 

Im surpise Salinas struggled against Aquino, i was expecting more.Maybe he needs to adjust,or maybe he doesnt belong to the big leagues.

 

He has been out of action a long time and came from 54 kilo in Cuba. i saw one of his first fights on youtube and he looked good, but this....

 

What big leagues ?

 

The Cuban National tournaments, Cordoba Cardin and Playa Girón are equally as hard or even more difficult than the pros...so what big leagues?

 

Cubans in action friday:
160 pound :Christopher La Paz (4-0) - Markus Willis (6-1)
135 pound: Richard Abril (13-2) -Miguel Angel Munguia (18-6)
