I'm not saying there aren't good Cuban boxers, I'm saying they are massively overhyped.
How are they overhyped exactly? Most of them have only fought on Friday Night Fights and only the hardcore fans have ever heard of them.

None of them have headlined a HBO or Showtime card so I'm not really sure what you are on about.

Are you saying they aren't good enough to be the feature attraction on FNF or fight on an undercard on HBO.

Because I think that's ridiculous.

Gamboa is hands down one of the most exciting fighters the sport, he deserves any attention he gets, great for boxing. Landra and Rigondieux, along with Solis have had pretty low key careers thus far. Can't recall Max Kellerman or Barry McGuigain ever jumping on their nutsacks.

They are all progressing well.
