Myrtle Beach, SC -- Oh! man I hate to say this but... Guillermo Rigondeaux the "the propect" or the "up and coming" professional fighter from Santiago de Cuba, Cuba is fighting his second professional fight against the 39 yr old Giovanni Andrade, veteran of 60 fights with 49 KO's.
I asked Roach when he was at the boarding lounge last night for a Miami flight if Rigondeaux will become a champion in less than 5 fights. Roach told me that, we're aiming for 10 fights and he will be a champ.
I've never been excited to a fighter when I see Manny walked into my gym. I thought it won't happen anymore, but I felt about Manny is the same excitement I felt when Rigondeaux decided to train with me.
He is as fast as Manny, and he is so strong also like Manny. I'm excited to see a fighter like him who is very smart and very willing to learn more.
I don't know Anthony but I don't like to call him an up and coming fighter, he is already there. His level of fighting is so high because of his experience and accomplishments in amateur ranks, Roach added.
Giovanni is in a roll also, winning his last 5 fights and he has a one punch knockout power. Let's see how the best in Cuba and the best trainer in the world combined this saturday.
I asked Roach how Filipino fighters fare against Rigondeaux when they sparred. AJ wasn't very good on the first sparring but he adjusted very well on the nexts sparrings. Mayol wasn't hesitant to throw and he mixed inside very well against Guillermo.
What I like about Filipino fighters are they have very strong heart and determination is very high. But the sense of humors make it more fun to work with the Filipino fighters and they are very down to earth, Roach told Philboxing.
Rigondeaux maybe the most bemedalled boxer in Cuba boxing history, the winner of multiple Olympic golds and World Championship golds will display his boxing genius this saturday. Combining with Roach is as the best combination we gonna see in present days. We're fortunate to see two lethal combinations though, bth of them have Roach on their side.
