Questions about Cuban amateur boxers

[Guest]

Of course, coming from Cuba gives boxers a better chance, doesn't it? Cube... box... geddit? Anyway.

Mario Kinderlan. This guy is so good, why hasn't he turned professional?


And er.... I can't remember the other question now.

because those guys are worshiped like gods over there, it's like a lot of cubans over the years like felix savon who was offered 10 million but turned it down, money can't buy what they have, look at the way they are treated by castro,it's pretty clear that castro uses them for his own benefits, but they also get a lot out of it by being treated so well,and looked upon as royalty, they would never have that if they turned pro

I think Casamayor is VERY underrated

Every one of his losses were controversial

I dont understand the logic behind this at all. I mean for example, would UK like Amir Khan more as an amateur kicking ass or as a pro kicking ass, winning world titles, proving the world your countrie's boxers are the best. Most countries would be happy to have some of their boxers show the world what they got. Just look at Pacman, worshiped in the Philippines because he's a world elite as pro, doubt he would get the attention if he was an amateur. What is it with Cuba?

cubans doesnt go pro. they get paid to be amateurs. They only go pro if they go to other countries such as casamayor.
