a few days before I arrived in Havana they just had their nationals.too bad that's twice I missed opportunities to go to the kid chocolate gym & watch Cuban amateurs.one of the trainers stayed next door to my hotel room(kept him up late often LOL!)he is from Vancouver & told me what makes the Cuban program so outstanding is their attention to footwork.he said it's their footwork that is much better then most programs.it all starts there.I never got a chance to go see him train anyone because I was busy with girls but he told me their gym is so low budget.potato sacks filled whatever & a big tire on the wall for a heavybag...should have went down but maybe next time.it was cool to talk boxing with a Cuban trainer.he was a white guy from Vancouver who went to Cuba to learn their style.now he is familiar with the north American & Cuban styles.
