Bantamweight boxer Guillermo Rigondeaux owns two Olympic gold medals. But it's his life out of the ring that could be made into a film. Rigondeaux is starting his professional career in the United States after escaping from Cuba in February. In 2007, he was banned from the Cuban national team for attempting to flee to Germany.
