    thats true.

    PS. and to be honest, if savon was a pro here in the U.S he wouldn't be that succesfull, he has a weak chin

                Cuba always had/still have a great amatuer boxing program. I wanted to go to their school, but just ended in music conservatory(Alejandro Garcia Caturla). My dad thought I needed some balance in life. I remember the school for sports was around Malecon before it turns into 5ta avenida, but can't remember the name of the school. I was only 11 @ the time.

                  I remember that guy Jorge Luis Gonzalez from Cuba was acclaimed as a bad dude who could reck anybody.. All I remember is Rid**** Bowe smoking his asz in a couple rounds. I listen to the expert here. John Scully. Amateurs dont mean anything.

                      One of them is a heavyweight. I'd like to see how he does in the pro ranks.
