    Some great pictures, they look really rugged and old school.

    They're not my photos, but dammit I wish they were. I'd have an awesome time in Cuba.

    Looks like some old school training there, with the barest of facilities and equipment, nothing but spirit.

    Have you seen "sons of cuba"?
    Great insight into amateur boxing in Cuba, nothing but spirit and determination from the kids there

    in any latin american country it is the same thing, very poor conditions. i think there is a gym now in the capital in DR. before there was no where for a boxer to train. but it is the only one available. if u dont have a car or a way to get there, u are screwed
