Best cuban boxers

Hurtado was good.

TS never specified if pro or AM so I assumed pro since people on here always try to sh1t on AM accomplishments. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android I was about to say my head was going to explode if it was amateurs too, and these guys weren't included they had ATG potential if pros tho. Stevenson traumatizing Tate literally making him sit down take a break. And here we see one of my favorites of all time Savon knocking out Prime young buck David Tua even with headgear.(which nobody did to him as a pro btw)

We talking pros right? not Amateurs because i see guys here saying freaking Casamayor and not Felix Savon or Teofilo stevenson if so that is a mothafuking sin on nature and God will punish you. By Cuban amateur standards Thats like saying Mayorga is one of the best ever and not mentioning Ali.

Castro is taking care of Cuba and your family. When you see Gamboa and Rigondeaux and the others in the olympics winning, you see the great human being that Fidel Castro is consorte.

Mario Kindelan was great in the amateurs. If he turned pro he would definitely beat most welterweights no doubt.

Let me say this: The Castro regime is what makes Cuban boxing look so pure. He is the one that built the beautiful boxing showcase that Cuba offers in amateurs and pros.

Was it? I only see it on Cubans. Was Kid part of his name or nickname? Cause I see him named Benny Kid Paret and not Benny "Kid" Paret. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android They didn't put quotes on Kid Gavilan (Gerardo González) or Kid Chocolate (Eligio Sardinias), either. "Kid" was a popular nickname among the old-timers, but perhaps the most famous "Kids" were Cuban. Check out this one website (http://www.phillyboxinghistory.com/more/nicknames/nicknames_list.htm) and scroll down. You'll notice that the real old-timers used the name more frequently. (Meldrick Taylor once called himself "The Kid" BTW.)

I'll throw Juan Carlos Gomez out there seeing hes not been mentioned & an amateur great that has been missed out Felix Savon.

Jorge Luis Gonzalez for his exceptional work against Riddick Bowe after all his trash talking, LOL.

Kid Gavilan Kid Chocolate Jose Naples Sugar Ramos Jose Legra Sixto Sorreo-amatuer champion Teifelio Stevenson-amatuer champion Rigo--amatuer champion & pro Some of the finest boxers in the World are Cubanos!!! For that matter athletes that compete in any sport from Cuba excell!!! Ray. Thanks, Ray. It's a damn shame our people have been prevented from officially competing in professional sports for over a half-century. Who knows how many Cuban professional world champs there might've been? (And not just the famous amateurs, either.)
