For the Cuban boxing fans...

[VERDUGO]

if you think that an 11 and 0 there's all it is to rigo, u are blowing smoke my friend

and 200 and 69 in the AMATEURS!
ooooooh weeeeee! very scary man.
Nonito has no chance.

[Angry Cuban]

no doubt about it most of the excuses thay donaire has given so far have been nothing but lies whether its rigondeaux its tough to negotiate with or the other 300 excuses he has given the boxing public i hope the fight gets made in june if rigo doesnt get that fight thus summer like he was promised then forget about it, donaire will duck the man if he has to

But at the beginning he had me confused..what you thought of Hairon Socarras?

[Angry Cuban]

I'm a fan of both guys as you know, but if Donaire doesn't fight Rigo this year its a blatant duck plain and simple.

I don't want to hate on Nonito who I believe is a especial fighter but this is a good opportunity to watch to great fighters on a intriguing bout...I don't even know who's gonna win I just want to see the fight as soon as posible..it have fireworks written all over it...

Yada yada yada .. All talk!! No walk!! Just get a fight Rigo! puts something in ur resume!

Cuban's were Great AMATEURS! BUt at the Pro level, they're not that great! See ur other Boy got beat, & then get The greatest Gift of all? Gamboa, almost KOed! You're Greatest fighter in the recent times is Casamayor! I don't see Rigo or Gamboa getting more than Casa, who's not that Great!

Where've you been "Oracle"? I haven't been seeing you around. What happened to your prediction? You said Farenas would knock Gamboa out. Now you're stroking yourself with "Gamboa, almost KOed"? lmao Don't be silly. Michael definitely put on a good show, but Yuri knocked him down twice. You don't see me saying Gamboa "almost" knocked him out. Do you?

I don't know why you feel the need to attack Cubans. But as for your statement, we've only recently gotten back into pro boxing after half-a-century. (Casamayor was practically a lone warrior.) Some of our best fighters have relatively little pro experience. Rigo only has eleven fights. Even Gamboa only has 22 fights. Give us time.

Do us all a favor. Stick to individual fighters, not whole groups of people.

wouldn't be surprised if this fight never happened. donaires trying as hard as he can to stop this fight..............it's not arum, it's been donaire all along which is down right sad.

I'm not sure what you mean. I think Santana is pretty athletic. He doesn't move the same way as some of our other fighters, but that's his style. He's aggressive. I don't think it has anything to do with ability. I like Angelo a whole lot. More obviously remains to be seen, but I like what I see so far. Can't wait for his next fight.

Socarras looks good, too; but it's very difficult to gauge potential so early. I liked the way he moved in his latest fight. (It looks like his work with Rigo is paying off.) He has decent power, but I hope he doesn't fall in love with it. I don't think he's that powerful. The best thing is, Hairon has youth on his side. He turns 20 near the end of this month.
