Could Danny Garcia and his father be the next Boricua Supertars??

I think he could be a big star, maybe not necessarily on a cotto or trinidad type of level, but he could develop into a pretty sizable draw. Puerto Rican nationals to my understanding, are not like Mexican nationals when it comes to American born Latinos. They wont call Puerto Rican Americans pochos or anything like that, they consider them brethren. But I could be wrong I'm just basing this off my puerto rican friend but I'm pretty sure he was raised in the us all his life.. Puerto Ricans could sure use some more stars right about now tho I reckon, why not garcia? Yeah, It will be interesting to know what they have to say about that.

Hey I'm a Mexican, living in México City, and I see Danny "Dinero de Boricua" Garcia as a Puertorriqueño... It's all in the blood man :boxing: naw im talking about AnimalisticMeth and a few other idiots.

lmfao @ the desperate ricans trying to claim him. Hey I'm a Mexican, living in México City, and I see Danny "Dinero de Boricua" Garcia as a Puertorriqueño... It's all in the blood man :boxing:

Only if every opponent they face is as fragile as Khan. He has already face Amir Khan Erik Morales (who had a war with Maidana and beat a good prospect in Cano) Kendall Holt Nate Campbell Ashley Theophane And he is still unbeaten... Next it should be Judah in Atlantic City to get more East Coast support before a PPV vs Marquez in Vegas, he will make Judah Dance the chicken dance again, I can't wait. http://www.gifsoup.com/webroot/animatedgifs3/1188629_o.gif

He can be but Dulorme right now is the top prospect out of PR. I still like all of the young guys coming up like Garcia, Dulorme, Mantquilla, Camilo Perez etc.

Danny Garcia is as Puerto Rican as Bam Bam Rios is Mexican. Delourme is the next Boricua Star.

Highly doubtful. i'm surprised he's unbeaten. His record isn't too bad, but it isn't that great either. He'll lose soon if he's not protected.

He has to be good at boxing to be where he is at right now. You can win a boxing bout in different ways, and winning is what makes you a good boxer, just ask Rocky Marciano. Yeah my bad, I should've put a bold or italics surrounding 'that'. I didn't mean he isn't good, just not great. At least not yet, he's young, he'll improve and he's plenty smart. At 140 and ~ same point in their careers, Cotto would've destroyed the **** out of him.

More like the de la hoya. He's from chicago and he isn't that good. He's solid, but i'd be surprised if he doesn't lose to some A caliber fighter soon.

I guess he's the Nonito Donaire of PR More like the de la hoya. He's from chicago and he isn't that good. He's solid, but i'd be surprised if he doesn't lose to some A caliber fighter soon.

puerto rico is a part of america dummies.

This, too. Kid is an American, doesn't speak Spanish, and despite his "my Puerto Rican people" claims, I highly doubt anybody on that island considers him one of their own. I guess he's the Nonito Donaire of PR

The man def has heart, As far as him being boriqua. He def is look at how he was raised. Im sure he was eating spanish food, his mom is name maudi, his dad is boriqua to da fullest. He needs to be on the undercard of a cotto fight so he can get the exposure. As far him sayin the n word in raps. Where he is from instead of sayin hey dude or hey whatsup man. They say ***** not ****** its a difference. People shouldnt comment on what they dont know. Im still not sold on him yet as boxer but he def a warrior.

The whole is-he-Puerto-Rican-or-not thing? Don't care. Can he be a superstar? Maybe, but I think he's got a tough row to hoe at 140. He beat a boxer who tried to brawl last night. When he starts fighting guys are more suited to that kinda' fight how is he gonna' do? At 140 you have : Lamont Peterson Lucas Mattyse Josecito Lopez Brandon Rios Marcos Maidana Ruslan Prodnikov Those are a pile of tough brawlers, boxer/punchers with a sh1t ton of heart. Not to mention the obvious: Juan Manuel Marquez. I'm not doggin' Garcia and really enjoyed his win last night, but I'm not convinced. Tell you what though there are alot of great fights that could be made at 140 if the promoters can get their sh1t together.

Danny just doesn't have the skill or the appeal to do so. But it definitely doesn't have anything to do with the fact that Danny was born over here. The Polish go hard on supporting Polish fighters that never stepped foot outside of New Jersey or Chicago lol that doesn't make the fighter any less "polish", i don't hear anybody b!tchin then. Or Arab-African immigrant-descendant fighters from the UK. PuertoRicans don't give a f**k about what a white boy or a mexican behind a computer has to say about who is and who isn't a PuertoRican superstar lol The kid was humble enough to ground himself & thank his family, "American" City and rep his roots in the biggest interview of his career after fighting like a warrior. Hats off to him. Your a ****in hater man **** you!

How do you know he doesn't have Black in him? lol u an anthropology expert? I know dudes in Hialeah who look even lighter than Danny with lighter hair who's grandfathers and grandmothers look like Wesley Snipes lol, gtfo out with that s**t....i'm not even gonna address the n***a-dropping in his raps... Nah man I couldnt give a **** what he is really...I just dont get why he has to bring it up......its like white boys in America bringing up their Cherokee roots to come across as cool. he said it because he has the make-up of what u consider a pretty boy, like he himself mentioned in the interview...which carries the notion that he's soft, withheld, can't fight, etc....had nothing to do with race People really think that way still? I thought Ali and DLH busted that myth long time ago...

PuertoRicans don't give a f**k about what a white boy or a mexican behind a computer has to say about who is and who isn't a PuertoRican superstar lol I don't know man...Talking to Mexicans from Mexico, and Puerto Ricans from Puerto Rico it is not the same if the guy was born in America and essentially a Chicano or someone of Puerto Rican descent but born and raised in NY... The culture is just different when you are not born and raised in your native land... What Im trying to say is that no Polak in Poland gives a **** about some Polish-American in NJ.....there might be some interest but that is it...You are talking about Polish-American fans. Just how Mexicans in Mexico swear off any connections with Chicanos (or at least the Mexicans I know). Your Cuban man, I've been to Cuba four times.....spoke to people on the subject and they always say "unless you were raised on this Island, you are not really a Cuban" So maybe native Puerto Ricans wont give a **** about Danny...
