    Actually pretty typical for socialist country. Reminded me of the treatment of soccer players in Libya. We also have an NBA player play for the Libyan national team and he had a documentary about how he survived the chaos of the revolution

    I'm from Miami, and all I ever heard is Cubans whining and moaning about how evil Fidel is and how their relatives got mistreated and had their land confiscated and so on, yet we never get to hear the stories of all the poor Cubans that were brutally repressed by the Batista regime, that some of their relatives supported, not all.

    Lara had it rough, but I'm sure people living in capitalist countries like Panama, Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador are all doing great with their children being sold into *** slavery, and having to deal drugs to make a living. Yet no one makes an issue out of that, because its Cuba they play it up.
    The main reason Cubans have it so bad is because the US won't trade with them, yet we seem to have no problem trading with Qatar who are currently funding terrorists in Iraq.

    Lara will outbox him 116-112 and the judges will score it 115-113 for Canelo.

    How terrible he was locked up for a week on the beach, Angulo spent 7 months in a detention center for absolutely nothing.

    Inspirational piece.

    The bit about not wanting to end up a drunk on the street corner like the other Cuban boxers is pretty powerful
