    Great fighters from Puerto Rico

    I think I just saw first hand why there are so many great Puerto Rican boxers. I am upper middle class, but I have a couple of friends from the "******". I was invited to watch some boxing in the housing project (******) next to where I live. It was great, they had a ring in the middle of the basketball court and there was a lot of people there watching. The best fight was two 5-6 years old boxing. Everyone was screaming and having fun. It was like a party in there. I guess what I am trying to say is that boxing here is cultivated since a very young age. Never seen that atmosphere before and it made me understand why there are so many fighters that come from PR.
