    I very much hope that Cuba will soon be a free and open society.There are so many good fighters there,so many talented young guys.
    Music,sport,culture-Cuba is a bloody rich nation reigned by a bunch of incompetent geezerss.

    According to a poster in another thread, Oner won the battle for Rigondeaux's soul.

    Rigondeaux himself has always maintained that he's signed with Oner. It's the Paddy raising the stink, but I imagine he has some kind of a contractual leg to stand on, otherwise Oner would just ignore him.

    Will the you please stop with that ****ing States thing. Like Gary Hyde wouldn't put him over in the States?

    Just because you haven't seen Perez, Acosta or Garcia, for **** sake they've had like 4 or 8 fights between them. And they are heading to America. You will see them.

    Whilst guys like Perez and Garcia may have a patience is a virtue like attitude. Rigondeaux is a little older than the other guys I believe, so the rush to get him seen in The States is understandable.

    Garcia is ****ing incredible. Apparently beat up on Froch for 4 rounds before the Pascal fight. Who knows, I reckon he may of roughed up his ribs and that may be why he complained about his ribs hurting after the fight. He's a good body puncher.

    Perez is great aswell. He's like Tyson but obviously not that level. Short, stocky, built like a brick **** house, and great combination of speed and power. I think he can go far as long as his lack of height doesn't hinder him.

    Acosta I haven't seen much of, what I have seen I've seen him throwing pretty wild punches. Apparently he's huge for a bantam and hits very hard at the weight.
