Guillermo Rigondeaux Defects, Signs With Arena Box

[The Gambler1981]

Why live in a small island nation that doesn't allow you to make a living doing the thing you do the best?

I don't know about Fidel going down hill, I think he's dead but the people don't want to say it.

Yea, I think it is like Weekend at Bernie's.

I understand why they leave, what I can't understand is why Cuba just does not let them, then let them live there and tax the **** out of them. They appear unable to stop them from leaving at this point, so they get nothing (a Chinese approach as opposed to the Soviet approach).

that is how i left Cuba also, throug Mexico 8 years ago. good for my fellow cuban fighters to leave, most people in the world dont know how lucky they are to have a chance to make and have a good life for themselfs and thier familys

WANT MORE UN-EFFIN-BELIVABLE NEWS???

He brought Yordanis Despaigne, Yudel Johnson and another HW to be named soon with him!!!!!!!!!

The game's about to change!!!!!!!!

EDIT: The heavy hitter is Yuniel Dorticos, the only young one of the batch... So my hopes are on Rigo because of his accomplishments and him.

Yeah, those are the guys I was referring to.

That's true, because they aren't signed to ArenaBox. I'll get the names tomorrow but they were all medalists. Apparently they are all still celebrating their independence.

:thumbup: Yea.

Rigondeaux was great in 2004, and I'm pretty sure he would have won gold again in 2008 had he been allowed to box, anyways, it'll be interesting to see how he does as a pro.

^ Let's hope so.
