I'm Half Mexican, born in Mexico and living in Mexico and i support THE PACMAN!!!
And many people here are rooting for the Pacman, lots of mexicans, he's supported more than Cotto.
The fight will be shown on National TV ¡n TV Azteca, many Pacman fights have been shown in Mexico on National TV, the last one being the Hatton destruction.
They have been promoting the fight since October, and they are putting lots of promotion for this fight.
I find funny that Chavez Jr. will be in the Undercard but TV AZTECA hasn't announced that he will be fighting, they just have been saying PACQUIAO VS COTTO, THE FIGHT OF THE YEAR!.
He will finish Cotto in 8 rounds!!! :boxing:
WAR PACMAN!!!!!!!

i like my fighters skilled, so WAR Cotto!!!
and the reason most people here are rooting for pacquiao is cus he is more well known(basically the most known fighter in mexico.....more than the mexicans.......most people i know have heard of pacquiao and dont even know about fighters like morales-barrera) and he is a winner.......people love to root for the winner and claim they know about boxing....
Viva Mexico!- Pacquiao
haha, everytime he is interviewed by TV Azteca, he ends the interview saying something like "un Saludo para todos mis amigos mexicanos".
And he has a better accent than most gringos that learn spanish for years.
I'm supporting Pacman on this one but I respect and like Cotto a lot! Sometimes I brought in the subject of the "knees" but just to kick the balls of some posters here :p but I really admire both Pacman and Cotto
I work in a Liquor store & I ask all the Mexicans for bet for Pac-Cotto. Well nobody takes cotto. Everybody's taking Pacquiao. Even my Rican Co Worker thinks Pac KO Cotto. The lone Rican customer I got who's about to bet $300 for Cotto already Backed out!!! Daym!! I'm not gonna make Money for this fight. Nobody want to take my bets!
As a matter of fact. It is funny that "mexicans" prefer been called "MEXICANS" than latinos since their country's name is not Mexico is Mejico. But since americans can't pronounce Mejico they decide to change the name of their country. They don't care anyway. Tell me if I'm wrong; "Mejicanos en grito de guerra..." So is me and the national song. Be more proud and do it right....
That's not true, MEXICO WITH AN "X" COMES FROM THE MEXICAS.
Properly speaking, all the Nahua-speaking peoples in the Valley of Mexico were Aztecs, while the culture that dominated the area was a tribe of the Mexica (pronounced "me-shee-ka") called the Tenochca ("te-noch-ka").
If you want to take out the X from Mexico and pronounce it from its Mexica roots, then it will be Mesheeco.
And why it's pronounce with a "J" is because of the spanish.
For example they have a city in Spain called XEREZ, but they pronounce the X with a "J".
I dunno. I wouldn't like to call myself latin just because my white master decide to start lumping all the brown people they could find and called them "latin". I mean, why aren't all the peoples that speak the romance languages considered "Latin" since Italian, Spanish and French all come from latin.
I guess you can call yourself whatever you want. Who really cares? But since your using your argument for supporting Cotto because you think he's more cultural similar, well then your argument is flawed. The Philippines have a much stronger cultural connection with Mexico, than Mexico has with Puerto Rico.
White master?WTF?I don't mind calling myself a Latino or Hispanic, that's how we are categorized just like a white person would be called an Anglo-Saxon or Caucasian.I was just referring to the fact that some Mexicans feel like they should be getting special treatment when it comes to this issue.Like I said, I don't hear Cubans or Puerto Ricans making a fuss about it.
And about Cotto, did you not read my posts?I said that was a part of why I was supporting him not the whole reason!I also said I was supporting him for the great person and boxer that he is!
Funny, I was at the flea market this weekend and saw this exact shirt.

I hate it when Mexicans come out with this "I'm not a latino, I'm a mexican" bullshitt!The way I see it is; why do Mexicans deserve this special treatment?I mean I don't hear the Puerto Ricans or Cubans spewing this crap!We are all Latinos no ifs or buts.Mexicans shouldn't be given that special treatment of being categorized as they want, it's not fair to other Latinos!
And yes, I am a Latino.

Mexicans supporting other Latinos...LMAO!!! gtfo with that shit. Are some people that stupid that they still don't know how stubborn Mexicans are when it comes to other latinos?
Well maybe I think this way because I'm not Mexican, I'm a Chicano or Mexican/American!
well to clear this mess up lol some mexicans are going for Cotto and some for Pacquio i mean i read on the forum that tito trinida picked pacquio to win and hes puerto rican
Tito changed his pick.
