    Was there ever a Cuban who turned pro? I thought it was forbidden in that country, they pay amateurs like pros. Teofilo Stevenson and Cubans could have ruled by now if that were possible.

    The commies outlawed pro sports in Cuba, as they did in the USSR etc., so Cuban athletes who want to turn pro need to leave the country. Bout time for that to change I would think

      Yeh, I thought so and I never heard of a boxer that renounced Cuban citizenship to turn pro. They would have been treated as a traitor and assassinated. So a rematch with Haye is not possible for now.

        So think about that.

        B*tches!
        Why would that have been a stoppage?

          As far as I know they do renounce Cuban citizenship when they emigrate and turn pro, and I believe they are called traitors. The Cuban government doesn't allow athletes to leave the country and turn pro and remain citizens. They don't allow athletes to turn pro period.

            Solis was hurt badly. If that was a pro fight without head gear, it would result in more damage for Solis. And Haye would allowed to continued his assault leading to a KO

              Not really. He was just knocked off balance. He was fine after the count.

                But if you listen to the biased announcers "I've never seen anyone hurt so badly!" you'd think that Haye just knocked him into the fourth row.

                  They must have been 2 of the 20 plus men Haye had sex with.

                    Bwahaha! Where does that quote come from? Is it real? If it is, it means that Haye is a bisexual amongst all his other wonderful attributes. No wonder he/she is so popular with all the little girly boys here!

                      No it's just a joke someone made as a thread, it would be really funny if it was real....It would be even funnier if it was real and Haye wins in June, because then we would have the gay heavyweight champion we have all been waiting for.
