@wetsugar21

Make a point without trying to insult friend, I probably am no more or no less than the person I'm corresponding with. It's that simple.

Just relax and try and give a good showing of yourself.

@wetsugar21

So if one is 28 or 29 is a seasond vet of international competition, and your fighting someone who's 19. There is absolutely NO advantage,experience does'nt help one in any way right ?.

@wetsugar21

Oh please,ever since I left Cuba,I'm allowed make a comment about anyone, just as you. Good fighter, but Stevenson DID fight many bums.

The point is when your in your mid or late 20's and have 2 or 300 fights and your opponent is 18 or 19 years old.There IS a distinct advantage.Many Cuban fighters have defected in recent years and they simply haven't done nearly as well as expected.The exceptions are Jorge Sotomayor and Yiorkis Gamboa,nothing out of this world though.

They didn't stop the fight, Howard and George for some reason didn't see the ref counting somehow.

I just read Sugar Rays Book His life In and Out of the ring!!!! i LOVE THIS MAN!!! We have so much in common!!!! Rusty Foster 47years old russsober@comcast.net!! I went through the same abuse he did as a child!!! I respect you so much!!!

[6400az]

Foreman is wrong when he says Leonard should'nt exchange.To beat the Cuban fighters you attack them and brawl. If you stay away then you get pick apart. Teofilio Stevensons's KO's all came from rights thrown from a mile away.

The Cuban fighters remind me of Mike Tyson during his early years.Fought bum of the month opponents and their bad ass reputation preceded them.Put someone in front of them who does'nt give a crap about the reputation and is willing to fight...whole new ball game folks !!
