There is a reason Luis Ortiz was avoided by all of the heavyweight champions until he started showing his age. There is a reason Lomachenko was one of the only elite low-weight fighters willing to tangle with Rigondeaux: Cuban fighters are very, very good. Their fighting philosophy is similar to the Eastern European style exemplified by Ukrainian fighters like Vasyl Lomachenko and Oleksandr Usyk: they hit and they do not get hit. They also tend to have limitless gas tanks due to their style, emphasizing quick and precise movement, which means they’re a threat for all 12 rounds.","What does the recent lift on the ban of professional boxing in Cuba mean for boxing?",{"name":534,"created_at":535,"published_at":536,"updated_at":537,"id":538,"uuid":539,"content":684,"slug":534,"full_slug":553,"sort_by_date":48,"position":554,"tag_list":696,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":57,"meta_data":48,"group_id":556,"first_published_at":557,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":697,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":541,"name":542,"category":685,"component":39,"meta_info":693,"block_image":694,"cover_image":695,"internal_notes":7},{"name":468,"created_at":469,"published_at":470,"updated_at":471,"id":472,"uuid":473,"content":686,"slug":468,"full_slug":570,"sort_by_date":48,"position":86,"tag_list":691,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":135,"meta_data":48,"group_id":572,"first_published_at":573,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":692,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":475,"name":476,"topics":687,"component":118,"meta_info":688,"meta_title":7,"block_image":689,"cover_image":690,"internal_notes":7,"meta_description":7},[484,512,539],{"_uid":560,"title":561,"plugin":43,"description":562},{"id":564,"alt":565,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":565,"filename":566,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":568,"alt":565,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":565,"filename":569,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"_uid":544,"title":545,"plugin":43,"description":546},{"id":548,"alt":542,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":542,"filename":549,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":551,"alt":542,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":542,"filename":552,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"name":699,"created_at":700,"published_at":701,"updated_at":702,"id":703,"uuid":704,"content":705,"slug":714,"full_slug":715,"sort_by_date":48,"position":528,"tag_list":716,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":717,"meta_data":48,"group_id":718,"first_published_at":719,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":720,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},"Iain Mackenzie","2021-09-10T15:42:24.159Z","2022-02-08T23:25:24.310Z","2022-02-08T23:25:24.333Z",71000029,"efb09565-d096-488b-8f7f-7e80e6045b1d",{"bio":706,"_uid":707,"name":699,"photo":708,"component":712,"social_link_tiktok":7,"social_link_twitter":7,"social_link_website":7,"social_link_youtube":7,"social_link_facebook":7,"social_link_linkedin":713,"social_link_instagram":7,"social_link_pinterest":7},"Iain Mackenzie is a licensed amateur boxer.
