hes been watered down
Lol

i have a question. what's with boxrec's bio on juan lazcano? it says hes born in america but it has his nationality as mexican.
which part of that are they screwing up?Comment

I just take these debates as if someone were saying Mexicans born in the U.S. are not Mexicans at all. To me it doesn't matter where they were born, it just makes me proud what Mexican blooded fighters are capable of doing, not where they were born.Last edited by HendrixLove; 01-16-2007, 11:55 PM.Comment

He was born in America so his nationality is technically wrong since he isn't from Mexico. Manuel Gomez was born in Laredo, Texas but fought out of Nuevo Laredo, Mexico.Comment

Their is no debate to the fact that Chicanos are looked down upon in Mexico by Mexican Nationals. Non Spanish Europeans born in Mexico have more credibility than guys like DeLaHoya and other Chicanos. That is just the way it is and I know it isn't right.Comment

Juan Diaz and any other fighter for that matter is whatever he says he is. Not where he lives not where he was born, not who his parents are, not who he married or where his children are born. They are what they choose to be.Comment

True, I cant remember the last time I heard paez speak english, but anyways I think he lives in bervely hills so I always thought he could at least speak broken english or something.Last edited by Fighting Cougar; 01-17-2007, 02:15 AM.Comment
