    Great amateurs you wish turned pro

    Ariel Hernandez- The offensive Rigo.

    2 olympic golds, 2 golds at the worlds, 7 Cuban national titles. He destroyed Sven Ottke several times, Chris Byrd, Hernandez Sierra (another outstanding Cuban) the list is endless.

    What a tremendously talented boxer. Easily among the best technical boxers I've personally ever seen.

        My brother in law was a good amateur. He lost his first fight in the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. Busted his ear drum pretty bad which ruined his chances of going pro. Couldn't stay in the Army either. Then he ass dialed my sister while he was trying to **** some chick over there and that ruined his marriage. So basically the Olympics ruined his life.

              Still remember seeing that Savon vs Tua fight for the first time and being all head ****ed as to why he was stopped. I didn't even see the short right in real time.

                It looks like a phantom punch it happens so fast but when they slow it down you can tell how much power that **** had, and why Tua was asleep on his feet.
