    Imagine if Rigo would've turned pro right after winning Olympic in 2004 or if Felix Savon turned pro.Not only would olympic Cubans turn Pro but also the guys that didn't go to the Olympics which are also very good.Cuban would challenge American & Mexican for boxing Supremacy.

      What do Muhammad Ali,Sugar Ray Leonard,Oscar De la Hoya,Roy Jones,Floyd Mayweather,Lomachenko,Klitchsko,Rigondeaux,Golovki n all have in commen they are all Olympic Medalist.

      All olympic Medalist might not be great in the Pros but majority of Elite fighters have some type prestige at amateur level.

        If Cuban fighters turned pro from ages 20-25 after competing in the Olympics there's a damn high % in them being good boxers.

          Nope if they turned pro they will all be getting KO in their 20's instead of running like cowards in their 30's

              Absolutely, Cuban fighters are great in the Olympics, but in the pros, its a different story. We will see soon, the embargo is lifted so we will see how good they will do in the pros.
