Originally posted by hectari View PostThats pretty sad. I remember Fernando Vargas talking crap about Duran, he said the Mexicans don't want to recognize a quitter. Vargas really hates Duran, he got mad when someone compared him to Duran he said that guy is a quitter and he said he would never quit like Duran.

Ps.- Good video.
Vargas is a drugs cheat, too scared to go into the ring without help.

Alvarez might not have Irish blood but he couldn't look more like a stereotypical Irish kid if he tried, although he'd pass for Scots too.
There was a piece in the telegraph about Alvarez before he fought Hatton:
Could Alvarez have Irish ancestry?
“There might have been an Irish grandfather somewhere there in the past,” Alvarez told your correspondent.
It is not out of the question. A contingent of Irish Catholics fought for the Mexicans in the American-Mexican War in the mid-Nineteenth century, and became known as ‘Los San Patricios’, literally in Spanish, ‘Those of St Patrick’.
They fought along the border of San Luis. Famously, eighty-five Irishmen were captured alive in those battles and tortured and hung. They became Mexican heroes. ‘Los Patricios’ are honoured with statues in several Mexican cities.Last edited by Weebler I; 09-10-2012, 05:21 PM.
