Cuba's experience is truly admirable. A completely small and modest country in its area, population and wealth compared to USA, and yet it has the potential to offer this high level of athletes.
I used to look forward to these country-versus-country boxing meets. Some network ought to bring them back.
The U.S. doesn't have much of a boxing program anymore. There used to be those city-city meets.. NYC, Chicago, Philly, Cleveland, St. Louis, LA, New Orleans, San Francisco.... talent all over the place. I miss those too.
The problem is Back when these guys fought they would cheat the Americans... So they came up with a system that cheats them even worse so Amateur boxing is almost a thing of the past..Cuz it’s some bias crooked crap
@@chrisslaughter5552 don’t act like the Americans wouldn’t cheat everyone else too
@@javiernegron2633 Brother my own family cheats me Hell I’ve cheated myself before..You can count your friends all on one finger you’re middle finger..Americans always got the
Worse Decisions in Amateur Boxing becuz we dominated back in the day it used to be pretty important to us But you have Cuba And Russia South Korea and a lot of Foreigners that stay in it for 20 some years Other Countries never turn Pro so nowadays America’s Amateur Boxing is a thing of the past we don’t even have a Good Golden Gloves anymore we used to put money into our Amateur Boxing but not anymore..You’ll Get Robbed anywhere anytime out of nothing Some People can’t be fair..Cuz life ain’t fair
@@javiernegron2633 The Americans dominated Amateur Boxing TIL around 1988 we went down til the ground But tell me who the Americans robbed like Roy Jones Jr got done in South Korea and then Riddick Bowe didn’t get a chance in the Gold metal match the ref gave Lewis the fight it’s Boxing it’s hard work letting them fight And the 1984 Olympics who got done like Holyfield ? Tell me..I’ve seen Cubans give decisions to their fighters the Americans won Russia too Bowe I don’t Know if he’d beat Lewis But the referee thought Boxing was non-Contact I guess he Didn’t want anyone to get hit let them fight it’s Boxing for the Gold Metal But it happen in Boxing at all levels it’s a judges opioion and they will be bias..Like a flag in football part of the game but they thought they came up with a good ideal now they have 4 judges with a button in each hand for each fighter and if punch lands and 3 judges push the button at the same time that fighter get a point Watch Floyd Mayweather win the fight and lose becuz of the push the button scoring is terrible and if you have one in each hand for each fighter and they’re throwing a lot of punches that is gonna be hard to score..And I’m sure they get mixed up and you can tell they do that why We don’t care about Amateur Boxing..
I have been looking for some footage from this event for a very long time. My Dad was the timekeeper so he is the one ringing the bell. Thanks so very much for posting, this is all I have of that event. The last time I saw this was when it was on live TV and I just found this today.
Los americanos son un poco locos en la pelea de Stevenson creo que hicieron toda esa halgarabia por que el boxeador americano llego en pie hasta el ultimo asalto pienso yo
Cuales de los dos americano? Cuba o estados unidos
I recently figured out Jackie beard is my grandfather
Howard Cossell mentioned at the startof this fight that the Cubans do not fight like the Soviets (straight up and down)
or the other satellite countries (Bulgaria,East Germany etc.) but that they "move". The only thing separating
the Cubans and the Soviets (typically) is "movement". They are VERY MUCH like each other but for the "salsa"
style (a type of "rhythm" in my view).
Brandon Green What a pity! Would have loved to see Cuba's best vs U.S best in the pro's ..
Hungarian boxers were also noted for their "movement" and fluid boxing style, similar to the Cubans and Americans.
Muy superior la escuela cubana de boxeo
It was in Charlotte, 10th february of 1980.
thanks
Coach want to see Greg Page’s National Golden Gloves championship win And Against the Russian who beat Tefito Stevenson 2 or 3 times in Las Vegas.. And any other Amateur fights..Please Thanks coach
Inmensa desventaja en estatura,peso edad y experiencia de Stevenson sobre Clark
I was there
I am pretty sure this was in 1980
Yeah it was held in lieu of the 1980 Summer Olympics, which the USA and Cuba among others were boycotting at the time due to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan (the Olympics were to be held in Moscow that year).
There was also a US gymnastics federation tournament the same year for the same reason.
Ñooo tremendo tortazo le dieron a Manuel Cordero
Alex Ramos, no joke.
ALEX IS NOT IN GREAT SHAPE NOW . BUT HE'S DOING HIS BEST TO HELP OTHER EX FIGHTERS. WITH THEIR HEALTH ISSUES, EVEN THOUGH HE HIMSELF HAS NEUROLOGICAL AND BRAIN PROBLEMS NOW. HE FOUNDED, (THE RETIRED BOXERS ASSOCIATION). YOU CAN PULL IT UP ON RUclips. OR GOOGLE IT .
@@jameshowell6160I trained with Alex for awhile in Knoxville Tennessee before the 1980 Olympics the late great Ace Miller had a camp. I’m sorry to hear that Alex is not doing well, prayers and love my Boxing Brother! God Bless You Champ Ramos. 🥊💥💤
teofilo Stevenson vs Muhammad Ali..
Angel Llanes Ali would have KO'd Teofilo. Stevenson is upright and relatively slow. Similar to Foreman. Depends on power in the right hand but wouldn't overwhelm Ali with it.
Ali would have destroyed him. Stevenson was a pro fighting amateurs.
How would you really know the outcome?
nuclearforce55 All speculative.
Eugene McGirt you just said it . We will never know for sure .
As as amateur maybe Foreman would have been competitive with Stevenson.
Qué pasó CON anjel Herrera
As a cuban, that last referee stole the fight. I had it 2-1 rounds in favor if Jimmy
the referee refereed correctly .. if you cant see that then do not comment as you know nothing about th rules of boxing. so instead of being loud stupid ,why not just shut it . The american was butting every time he stepped forward. so go take another look . or go.
@@doonthepan Take your own advice.
🥊🔥👍
Butterbean vs Stevenson, 3 Rounds. Who wins and why?
Im looking for fights of Cedric Rose.
I’ll look
Jimmy Clark won this fight
Ber video del único
Un combate bien conmpleto no chingadera como hoy los según profesionales.
davey Armstrong sits in a home with massive brain damage. 300+ fights will hurt your brain.
sad story
AND ALEX RAMOS HAS HAD THREE BRAIN OPERATIONS. BUT HE FUNCTIONS WELL ENOUGH NOW TO FOUND( THE RETIRED BOXERS ASSOCIATION) TO HELP FORMER FIGHTERS WITH THEIR HEALTH ISSUES, GOD BLESS HIM.
While I think Cubans are great at the amateur level, I still have doubts about them at the pro level.
Después de llevar las peleas pérdidas ganan una por knockout que alegría la del América
The
Jackie beard beat the Cuban
We know that. It's on the record.
Toledo was awful...
