By Rasim Alihodzic| Combat Sports UK Verified Bellator legend Patricio Pitbull lost his UFC debut at UFC 314 against Yair Rodriguez. This result is far from ideal for the veteran who expressed interest in fighting Alexander Volkanovski. This loss is a fairly big setback for the former Bellator champ who is 37 years old. He showed flashes of his Bellator days however Pitbull looked his age and past his best. But, despite this he is fairly optimistic. Congratulations to @panteraufc, we’ll see each other again.
By Rasim Alihodzic| Combat Sports UK Verified For decades professional boxing has been illegal in Cuba courtesy of Fidel Castro since the 1960s. This meant a much greater focus on the amateur ranks for Cuban boxers. This resulted in Cuba becoming one of the most dominant countries when it comes to amateurs. It also meant that any Cuban boxer who aspired to become a professional had to defect and flee the country. However, the Cuban government lifted the ban in 2022 meaning amateurs can now turn over to the pros without needing to defect.
