Is it me or are most cuban boxers gate keepers?

Southpaw101 is the man.. I love his threads and responses

Great points guys

:rofl: I wonder who would do such a thing to such a great poster as yourself Cuba Libre? PRPP I know, right? :beerchug: Your mother must be some Mexican maricon. To think, all these years I've been getting blown by some Mexican tranny posing as a Boriqua whore. :blowjob: I feel so dirty now. :)

I wouldn't be surprised if these "gladiators" of the sport wished they could box that well. Especially in the later ages when the after effects of boxing start to show up.

"Everybody takes a beatin' sometime." -- Henry Hill, in "Goodfellas". Us Cubans are taking heat right now. I'm cool with it...it comes with the territory. You play, you pay. But within reason. It's one thing to punish someone; it's another to grind them into the dust. Every dog has his day. I'll remember those that went overboard on my day, "And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger!" (Ezekial 25:17) :lol1: :rofl: I wonder who would do such a thing to such a great poster as yourself Cuba Libre? :sad: PRPP:boxing:

lol Those cats are lucky I'm not as young as they are. 'Cause when I was their age, I was relentless about shit like this, too. lol But then I did what smart dudes do as they get older, I learned. You don't kick people when they're down. At least not for too long. :lol1: The day invariably rolls around when your turn comes up. I'm becoming and old fart, I grew up without internet, social media and smart phones so I'm new to all this.

Hahaha, I know a few names on your list. lol Those cats are lucky I'm not as young as they are.

Cuban Boxing is growing at the moment, as more of the TOP GUYS Defect and come and try to make a name for themselves. Gamboa despite losing to Crawford, he still is exciting and he was still getting criticized for every little thing and had a tough time getting on TV and getting Big Fights even when he was with Top Rank Some people especially here in the US have this natural "HATE" for Cubans because of US Political Issues with Cuba. You will never hear someone like Jim Lampley or Larry Merchant be biased towards a Cuban fight that is for sure! Cuban Boxing is growing, not going away anytime soon.

Oh most def. I've moved on pretty much already, I don't currently have a fight scheduled that I'm gung-ho about like that fight, none of these up coming fights are "my guys." But I'm interested in a few of them Canelo-Lara was a big fight for us hardcore guys. It was to determine the best guy at 154. I'm hoping the Floyd fight provides some thrills.

:lol1: Thanks for keepin' it 100, bro. :fing02: I'm willing to take it on the chin when my fighter loses, whether I think he rightfully won or not (which I do in this case). Like I said, it comes with the territory. But let's keep it within reason. Even if Canelo KOed Lara in the first, there's a limit to the shit one can talk. It's not like you get free license to talk trash for all eternity. You've got dudes here that still brag about Sanchez-Gomez FFS. lol As it is, Canelo-Lara was a close fight with a very debatable decision. The clock is quickly running out on bragging rights.

:lol1: you are not too familiar with what a success ratio is now do you?

Honestly, I wish I was able to talk more **** about our last war with Lara and Canelo. But Lara fought such a good fight that I think he arguably won, or draw at best for Canelo due to conflict of styles. Lara disabled my ability to talk **** after the fight lol. :lol1: Thanks for keepin' it 100, bro. :fing02: I'm willing to take it on the chin when my fighter loses, whether I think he rightfully won or not (which I do in this case).

About 50 Cuban-born boxers are fighting worldwide, that's about 5 times less the amount of Mexicans in the featherweight division alone. Five Cuban-born boxers are currently world champions. That's a pretty good success ratio. "Cuban School sucks, doe!" lol This is right on the mark. Picture a state like Florida, or a small country like the dominican republic. How many champs from these areas? Puerto Rico and Cuba have great fighters.

You know the answer. Didn't another Cuban boxer become world champion last thursday? The current pro boxers from Cuba are only those who have defected, the best Cuban boxers are arguably still amateurs. Not everyone is ready to leave his family behind.

I dont know why Cuban fighters dont tweak their style just a little bit. All they need to do is be a little more offensive minded and they could get these decisions and avoid from being banned by HBO.

Seriously, you guys are being azzholes now. So Canelo gets the decision against Lara and a few other Cubans fighters lose and Cuban fighters are now trash? Man, I don't want to be here the day Canelo loses, it's going to be a race war on Mexicans....jeeezus. "Everybody takes a beatin' sometime." -- Henry Hill, in "Goodfellas".

Imagine if all of them were allowed to fight anywhere without having to defect.......we would see even more talent and they would make an even greater impact. Take Notes: This is how all the young and up and coming Cuban fighters need to fight In the pocket.. PRPP:boxing:
