    New Rivalry? Cuba vs Mexico

    Mexico vs Puerto Rico was the status quo for latin rivalry as of recent.

    Much has changed with the sudden rise of defecting Cuban exiles successfully translating to the pros.

    It seems the landscape is shifting.

    The high quantity/mediocre quality of Mexican fighters might be endangered with the presence of the high quality/low quantity Cuban fighters.

    Your thoughts.

      Gamboa couldn't even hurt a Colombian drug mule in his last fight and got taken to hell by a balut vendor prior...

      Aside from Rigo it's not lookin too good m8

          Gamboa looked like **** in his last fight and was probably juiced up for all the other ones before that. Lara good, showed heart vs Perro but was still floored twice. Rigo got it right now but he can't even get back on tv. I think that is shame btw. Puerto Rico is in the slums right now but I don't see no rivalry between Mexico and Cuba building up.

            What rivalry?

            -Gamboa is a cheater with no chin.

            -Lara is garbage

            -Rigo is good but will probably end up on FNF

            the only one I liked was Angelo Santana and he got sent to hell in his last fight

            -Mares is a P4P undefeated, 3 weight class champ

            -Marquez top 3 P4P and ATG

            -Canelo undefeated unified champ thats going to fight Mayweather

            Not to mention:

            Santa Cruz
            Estrada
            Chavez jr
            Vazquez


            M/A
            M.Garcia
            Alvarado
            Guerrero
            Rios



            If another rivalry is going to brew up since the extinction of Puerto Rican boxing it will be against another top notch boxing country like Argentina with amazing boxers like

            Martinez
            Matthysse
            Maidana
            Abregu
            Navarez


            etc

                Rigo never pussed out vs Rios.

                i do remember Rios clearly losing to Richar Abril.

                  Estrada is above Lara, Abril and current Gamboa
