LOL So I take it Gomez lost cause he was snorting coke?? Jesus, you guys never quit with excuses.

i never said that he lost because of *******. i said that when he lost, he was addicted to *******

that's reality. interpret it how you want

[Mr. Fantastic]

it is given to the government. Too bad the country does not know how to use the money.

And what does the U.S. enforce the president to use it for?? That's right. Go ahead and deny it.

struggling to produce championship boxers without u.s help? struggling financially yes but producing fighters i doubt it

If Cuba was getting the luxuries PR has, I bet it would be a bigger/better powerhouse than even PR.

[Elie]

usually growing up in a slum gives you the right mindset to be a good fighter. pr would probably produce even more great fighters if they didn't get US money.

cuba has a great amateur system because the arent allowed to turn pro. which hyped cuban boxer has turned pro and truly dominated in the states like a trinidad gomez or cotto. its possible but i doubt it from what ive see from these overhyped cubans who have been exposed on the big stage.

Cuba will **** on everyone if they ever go pro. They have fantastic athletes, not just boxers. They are in the top 5 in amateur wrestling every year, Gamboa, Lara and Memo are coming up; there are a ton of baseball players from there too.

really? i thought that desperation formed a big part of starting to box for most people

most of the great athletes come from poor places/classes

[ny123]

anyway this thread isnt about cuba and pr its comparing pr and mexico and the bottom line is pound for pound there is no comparison

[oc9979]

it is ****** to complain about Puerto Rico being part of the United States. When United States has other island that are territories.

U.S. Territories and Outlying Areas
* American Samoa
* Federated States of Micronesia
* Guam
* Midway Islands
* Puerto Rico
* U.S. ****** Islands

Also there is an Island that it is a state
*Hawaii

Seriously no bull****. Not hating on Ricans but Cubans are some bad ass motherfuckers.

Cubans have tons of fantastic athletes. Even in the state they are in, they make noise. Now imagine if they were part of the U.S.?? No match at all.
