So how can a guy with no fanbase be overrated?

I think Castro has been 6 feet deep for a while now soooooooo

PS Someone go find the video where Arum says Donaire can't beat Rigo, Juanma or Gamboa.

He clowned Donaire too so it's ok.

Un-freakin-real that he would say this about his own fighter. SMDH. Goes to show Arum has no clue how to market guys who aren't Mexican/Puerto Rican/Filipino. Why even sign cuban fighters if you don't do anything with them?

Before or after Donaire decided to stay after flirting with GB?
Also what'd he say?

The video isn't working for me.

There are just about 1.5 million Cubans in the U.S. There are 11 million on the island, with no money and no way of easily leaving. The only way a Cuban fighter will become a star is if he's incredibly exciting, something Rigo is not. Right now, Gamboa is our best bet as an attraction. It is what it is.
