Sergio Martinez is HISPANIC...His last name says it all

I thought this thread was pretty good for some purpose: exposing a lot of idiots. Now there a lot more posters I know not to take seriously, like the OP for instance. Also, it brought the lulz :lol1: It taught me one thing: a person's last name instantly tells us what ethnicity he is. Thus, for instance, Martinez's last name is a dead giveaway that he's Spanish, not white (err...), whilst Paul Williams' last name tells us that he's a ginger-haired Welsh miner, not a black man, as I initially though. He also, presumably, likes a spot of choir singing on the weekends along with his fellow miners Bernard Hopkins and Roy Jones, boyooo.

HAHA too funny!! Martinez is a Hispanic name from Hispanola hahahahahahahahahahahah

I think I lost more brain cells from reading this thread than that white guy Paul Williams did when he got KOed. I thought this thread was pretty good for some purpose: exposing a lot of idiots.

Ok ok I get all u white boyz wanna claim a bad ass fighter I know that , But look here sergio martinez isn't what u call caucasion. I understand you say latino and hispanic is not a race ok , so tell me what the fuk is it then ? Because until I hear martinez call himself white or caucasion , he is most certainly hispanic from argentina, in most interviews he doesn't say yo shoutout to all my white people from europe, viva blanco lol he says "todos mi latinos " < hence claimiing he is latino Latino is an ethnic group. I suggest you educate yourself a bit, that way you wouldn't look like a clueless idiot.

So you guys have access to Martinez's family tree to say that you 100 percent know his decent? If not then this argument is pointless. So are you to stupid too understand that you don't need 100% white ancestors to be white? I guess Kobe Bryant isn't black either because he hasn't 100% of black ancestors huh? F*cking idiots.

my last name is martinez to..............

I have an employee who is from Argentina and he would actually be OFFENDED if you call him Latin or Hispanic! Argentines take pride in there white skin and are actually regarded throughout South America as a very racist people towards there neighbors. Argentinos also take pride in the differences from cuisine, dialect in language(castellano) and strong european cultural traditions.

Both posts above are correct. Sergio Martinez is white, and almost certainly has Spanish ancestry. 97% of Argentinians are white with Italian and Spanish European ancestry. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/ar.html The Argentina football team: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_GtUIQBQYwzA/ScivGCRxUOI/AAAAAAAABA0/7Vsn9ccy3_E/s400/argentina_1_1024x768.jpg The Argentina rugby team: http://www.rugbyinwales.co.uk/images/pageimages/internationalargentinarugby.jpg These guys are white and so is Sergio Martinez. Exactafukkinmundo essay. Bump for the lulz.

sergio is a white hispanic. he has like blue or green eyes and he's pale skinned. He's white. "He's from Argentina." Another brilliant jackass. Duuuuurrrrrr. Argentina, like I told the other moron, is a majority WHITE/CAUCASIAN COUNTRY. Both posts above are correct.

I don't get this debate, WHITE PEOPLE aren't raised to speak fluent spanish. What's next Colombians aren't latino, PR aren't latinos, Dominicans aren't latinos, the 31 Chilean coal miners aren't latinos. The guy is from Argentina, speaks fluent spanish, last name Martinez, he's guilty of being Latino/Hispanic with white skin. CTFU How bout spanish people from spain lol?

This is pathetic, aside from having nothing to do with boxing. Sergio Martinez can be categorized as Hispanic, as can anybody from SPAIN or ARGENTINA or CHILE or VENEZUELA etc. Latino is NOT a race. If however you think it sounds cool and the US government like to put it on their census, then fine. Just understand in the UK for example, an Italian can be labelled a Latino, quite common to hear that. In fact latino = latin and refers to people who speak a language which emerged from latin. in reality, French, Italians, Romanians, Portuguese people can also be labelled "latinos". In the United States the term "latino" has been distored and is thought of someone only from Latin America.

Spanish - the language - where the FUKK do you THINK it came from!? Spain you imbecile! "He's from Argentina." Another brilliant jackass. Duuuuurrrrrr. Argentina, like I told the other moron, is a majority WHITE/CAUCASIAN COUNTRY.

Here's your true 'Latins' too BTW. Idiots. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latins

In Margarito vs Manny Pac 24/7 theres a part in there where Margarito & Segio Martinez attend the Hispanic Convention in building their upcoming fights. White people claiming Sergio as WHITE are retarded lmao. Just because hopkins popped off out the mouth they are now making boxing a race thing. Who cares what hopkins has to say? Joe Cal beat him and Joe was slapping the whole time. Sergio Martinez is hispanic.. Kelly Pavlik, hatton, the klitch bros, froch are white boys...sergio martinez isnt white lol You're pathetic who obviously needs to pick up a history book. Since that's probably too difficult for you - Google is your friend. Duuuurrrrr.

Latino isn't a race you lunatics! Martinez is a White latino. Same as Fiddell Castro is a white/latino, the same as Lionel Messi is White/Latino Are you guys trying to say Messi isn't white? http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20081001083502/uncyclopedia/images/8/8e/Messi.jpg Thank you for this post. Some of the idiots in this thread need to study up on Argentina. Sergio is actually of Spanish (as in Spaniards from SPAIN, as in EUROPE) and most likely Italian descent. The MAJORITY of residents of Argentina come from EUROPE, or at least their parents and grandparents did. Argentina actually has the biggest Italian settlement in the Americas. There's also big Spanish and German communities as well. Some of you clowns trying to claim Martinez as a Mestizo are pathetic. He's anything but. And as far as Lionel Messi - there's another bloke from Argentina who is clearly white/Caucasian. He's actually half English too, from his mother's side. These dumbfukks think just because Argentina is in South America half of Argentine athletes are Mestizo, fukking L oh L!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentina

Xavi Hernández Javi Martínez Pedro Rodríguez Diego López Pablo Hernández Domínguez All born in Spain and play on the Spanish National football team. care to expand on your claim? It seems to be flawed. the S and Z is difference between Spanish and Portuguese names, obviously the dude is an idiot. For all you brainess folk:- Latino, can not be a race: otherwise you are saying Fidel Castro, Lionel Messi, Pele, De La Hoya are all the same race as are Gamboa, Juan Manuel Marquez, Joel Casamayor and Sergio Martinez. Erm yeah right...

Joe Calzaghe is half Italian = Latino, see what I mean, where does it end? Also, what kinda argument is to use someones last name? if your mom is of another nationality, but gets married, loses that name, then your name most prolly want be latino, hispanic. You're aware that latino is not a race, right?
