    as an amateur you fight so many different times against so many different opponents...since also its only 3 rounds. its like an everyday thing in there for them.

    I actually think theyre too relaxed. being somewhat tense while fighting isnt always a bad thing, although it depends in the situation.

    Im not overly impressed with Rigondeux or Solis honestly. I think Lara and Gamboa are the best cubans out there.
    The light heavyweight guy isnt very good and the flyweight guy has already turned into a journeyman.

      Raines isn't really a good fighter but a win is a win...and Lara is just a prospect

        Everybody wants Cotto and Mosley.

        Big money for a perceived small threat against a experienced fighter outside their natural weight-class.

          yea, I agree is weak sauce, and Vanes made a horrible excuse when Lara called him on his BS.

          But, even if Vanes wanted to fight Lara. It wouldn't/couldn't happen.

            Didn't catch this blow out but Lara is a very promising prospect from what I have seen.

              Why do you say Wouldn't/Couldn't?

                Very true.

                And boxing suffers.

                    Because, of the whole dumb, silly, effin feud between 2 immature promotional companies.

                    It's back to the cold war between Golden boy and Top rank. They will not work together anytime soon.

                    So as long as Vanes is with Top rank and Lara is with Golden boy it can't/won't happen.

                    Unless one of them leaves their promotional company.
