New Rivalry? Cuba vs Mexico

[damit305]

BUT, until Cubans wake up and realize communism is a primitive form of government and actually take the initiative to reform their politics instead of swimming to Miami and bark from the other side of the fence than we will always be stuck with posters (like yourself) claiming how great Cuba "could've" been.

An ugly reality to a very sad truth.

And for the record, contrary to my blunt posts regarding Cuban fighters and their abilities I actually have the utmost respect for their skills, ring generalship, and their unmatched records in the Olympics and amateurs.

My only gripe is that they never seize the opportunity for greatness in making a lasting mark and impression on the sport but seemingly seem content to utilize an amateur approach when entering the professional ranks. Thus limiting their potential to be GREAT.

Listen, there is a reason why promoters (Arum/Goosen) are less interested in investing/marketing Cuban fighters for some of the already aforementioned reasons. Couple this with the fact that despite past Cuban greats the Cuban community as a whole do not follow the sport in the masses as suppose to other ethnic groups.

But hey, I guess according to you (your words) Cubans have better things to do.

Wow, a Costa Rican taliking big smack bout Cuba- US political relations...

Easy to talk shit when your country solely depends on US might for protection.

More like Mexico vs USA.

Mexicans always make fights exciting to watch. The ginger kid didn't deliver in his last fight, though.

Mexico possibly eliminated, No mas

Certain fans are a bit sour tonight.

It's not just boxing folks.

Mexican athletes are diminishing, tonight's loss vs Costa Rica (futbol/soccer) proves a massive declination in Mexican sports....

again this has nothing to do with a Cuba rivalry. This is just another chance to gloat and bash Mexicans

I don't doubt that one bit; "K9" sucks. I've only seen Joey fight once. Looks like he likes to mix it up. This could be a fun fight.

What I've seen from this kid Hernandez has been more than meritorious.
