Lol, you're not even 20 yet, so no you've not been a boxing fan for 80 years, maybe 8 and no America has produced the most champs in the last 80 years and it's not even close!

To all Mexicans in here. Don't listen to the thread starter. I am Filipino and a Pac fan but there is no argument who has the dominant history in boxing. And that is boxing. Therer are numerous Mexican world champions and ranked top fighters.
There is no such thing as Philippines vs Mexican rivalry. Maybe in the future though.Comment

there has been many great mexican fighters, but most of them a money grabbing journey men who turn up get hit once or even go down off the wind off a punch fall on the canvas roll around screaming like a girl, take the purse fail to declair it to the taxman (IRS for the yanks) and feed their 60 children for the next 20 years.Comment

Mexicans are always tough and show a great amount of courage in the ring. They deserve respect especially in the lower weight classesComment

What a ****en lame not even your own people have your back!I have been boxing fan for over 20 years.... My observation is that Mexican fighters have been the MOST OVER-RATED fighters in the history of the sport....
If they are pitted amongst themselves (ala Morales/Berrera/Marquez) they do seem entertaining.. However, if you put the Mexican "Best" against real elite fighters, they simply lose...
Take a look at the Mexican "Deity" Chavez... It was not until later in his career that he actually fought top ranked fighters... And, when he fought Meldrick Taylor and Pernell Whitaker he was consistantly bailed out by corrupt referees and judges... I dont know the reasons but the FACTS speak for themselves...(Maybe because WBC is based in Mexico?)
NOW, take a look at the boxing "ICON" DE La HOYA.. Can anyone tell me who he beat in the last 5 years that makes him so popular? ODH is the Golden Goose of boxing yet he isnt even ranked in the top 10 in most P4p lists... Oh yea, he beat Mayorga, who is 2 weight classes smaller than him... Is it me, or wasnt he crying on the convass when he was hit by a Hopkins body shot???? Now he wants to fight Mayweather who is 3 natural weight classes lower than him....
If you are really knowlegable in boxing you would have made the same observations... And, why do some Mexicans always say that all Latinos agree... That counldnt be the furthest thing from the truth... Most Latins (Cubans, Colombians, Puerto Ricans, Dominicans)I know dont even like Mexicans...
Although I may be a PAC fan, I know whole heartedly that he is hardly NOT the greatest thing since sliced bread... He was not greatly heralded when he came to America... As a matter of fact he lost to 2 other Filipino/Asian fighters already when he arrived... I suspect that if he was not fortunate enough to come to America, he would have slipped into obscurity in the Philippines just as thousands of countless Filipino fighters....
The fact is that Philippines is thousands of miles away and it is not as easy to come to America as simply crossing a fenceless border... There are for sure many Filipino fighters that will knock Pacquaio on his ass but I doubt they will ever get the chance....

We shouldn't fight racism with more racism. The Philippines is a great nation full of proud people just as Mexico is.Comment
