Venezuela is NOT Cuba, don't get it twisted. They are allies, yes, but Cuba has been more of a "Stalinist" type of government, Venezuela is certainly not Stalinist or even that similar to Cuba. Even the history is so much different Cuba having a revolution to overthrow the Batista regime whereas Chavez was ********ically elected.A "bit of personal wealth"??? do you even know what you are saying? tell that to the people of Cuba who lost their land, homes, businesses just because some ******* took power of the country and decided to give those lands to indigents who deserved none of it, the people who worked hard for their money got robbed and were forced to exile the country, man you are one ignorant fool.
If you do not understand the difference than clearly it is you that is ignorant. Socialist. Communist. Look up the definitions. Understand them. Look up the Socialist parties all across the world (such as Europe). Never confuse socialism in general or ********ic socialism (such as Sweden for example) with Soviet style Communism that has existed or still exists (which is clearly what you are doing). Chavez was ********ically elected. And re-elected multiple times. He is not a dictator he has the support of the people. This is a fact and has been observed and admitted by numerous overseas groups overseeing the fair elections.So the ignorant and educated are the people who represent Venezuela? at this juncture you might be right, ignorance is bliss and that is what the communist feed from, oh I'm sorry...I meant to say "socialists" it sounds a bit nicer. You are a clown.
Further, even if you do not like the man you simply cannot deny the positive effects Chavez has had on his country, for example:
*Education is now free (right through to university level).
*Neighborhood committees designed to activate citizens at the community level to assist in literacy, education, vaccination campaigns, and other public services (in fact, eduction is one of the greatest successes of Chavez and the literacy rate has been fantastic since become president).
*Health care has dramatically changed for the better (free clinics in poor neighborhoods, thousands of Cuban doctors treat the poor for free (one of the benefits of being an ally to Cuba is that Cuba has more doctors per capita than any country in the world)).
*Accessible health care for the poor has been successfully expanded with the number of primary care physicians in the public sector increasing from 1,628 in 1998 to 19,571 by early 2007
*The poverty rate has been cut in half (from 54% in 2003 at the height of the bosses’ lockout to 27% in 2007; and extreme poverty has been reduced from 43% in 1996 to 9% in 2007)
*Unemployment cut by more than half (from 17% in 1998 to 7% in 2007)

I think Funeka takes this, as long as he doesn't get caught repeatedly by Valero's left hand bombs, Valero is open to counter right hands when he commits to his left, if an opponent knows how to take a couple of steps back and nail him with counter right hands whenever he throws his left, he's in trouble, I think Funeka can do that and the right hand is his best punch, his physical advantages should help him out too so I got Funeka winning this.
Unless Valero is a much improved technical fighter as rumors going around are suggesting, a technically sound Valero would be a tough guy to beat.Comment
