    Yeah, that's his official record. How you seen him fight? He's quite amazing.

                This is becoming a soap opera!

                NEWS FLASH
                Rigondeaux and Lara arrested!
                The professional careers of Cuban boxing stars Guillermo Rigondeaux and Erislandy Lara may have come to an end before they even started. Two-time Olympic champion Rigondeaux and reigning welterweight world amateur champion Lara were waiting for their German visas at a secret place in Brazil when police arrested them. The two Cubans defected from their national team during the Pan American Games. Because they didn't have their passports with them, police has to figure out their iden******. The consequences are not clear yet. Most probably Rigondeaux and Lara have to return to Cuba. Arena-CEO Ahmet Öner: “Of course, that’s not good news at all but I am not very shocked. After all the fuss Fidel Castro has made about the whole thing their was always a chance of something like that happening. I just hope that those guys get treated fair and that Fidel stops persecuting their friends and families in Cuba. We are in contact with the Brazilian administration. Maybe there is still a chance for Rigondeaux and Lara to come to Hamburg.”
