Artist's description:
Cuba's African blood and musical rhythms derived from slaves drums contributed to the boxing skill, said trainer Rolando Garbey. "Our boxers have more dance and movement in the ring. That allows them to defend themselves better and they suffer less, like Muhammad Ali," Garbey said. "European boxing continues to be pure force. We move like salsa dancers." boxing school for kids in havana, cuba
