    Good to hear. I used to spar at the gym he attends, and have seen him fight in several competitions. I feel he has a good chance to take the Gold for the US.

      Well, I believe in second chances but not third ones. I hope this kid knows how close he came to loosing a once in a lifetime opportunity and how disrespectful he was to his teammates and his country. If he does then he will have truly learned a life lesson from this.

      I will support him and look forward to seeing him compete.

        Luis Yanez is good, but i think the issue is his lack of regard for communicating what the **** hes doing and where he is. We need him, 8 boxers? **** that. im glad hes back on board.

          Is that the Vivero Boxing gym he goes to?

            I don't care what he's done. We need to bring home a gold medal and field as many boxers as we can. Maybe that is wrong, but I'm thrilled that he's back. He could kill someone and I'd still want him to fight.
