Rigondeaux what really happened

[Pullcounter]

i hate to say it cuz he was my fav cuban olympic boxer but it looks like rigo is going to join the garbey's gonzalez's etc what a waste if that happens, what the hell was he doing in las vegas one week before his fight?

most cubans always struggle with discipline once they get in the U.S.

lara is the only one that has 100%right out of all of them and unfortunately he doesnt have the talent that solis, gamboa and rigo process. this is so frustrating

From what I've always understood, sports training in Cuba is very regimented. The coaches approach training very systematically. From the time these Cuban athletes are just kids, they're led through their paces very carefully. When some of these athletes make it to a free country, they sometimes struggle to find the drive to continue training as they once did. They no longer have state-sponsored coaches to hold their hands. Mix in the new and exciting freedom and financial resources they gain once in another country, and you have a real challenge to stay focused.
