    Floyds Mexican Outfit??

    Im kind of torn right now being half mexican. I dont know if I should be happy or mad at Floyd. I dont know if he wore the colors because it was Cinco de Mayo and was just paying tribute, or if he was wearin them to poke fun and try to make fun of Oscar and disrespect the mexican fans.




    eitherway I give the guy credit. He is a better fighter than Ive given him credit for and his personality has made me a fan. Oscar let it slip away but it was close.

          How would they not know what Cinco De Mayo is? Every american knows what Independence Day is to us, so whats the difference?

            I swear like 20 minutes ago you said Oscar won.

            I see that after people's emotions have settled down, they're coming to their senses.

            Bout time.

                I didnt judge the fight so I dont know what I would have it scored yet. But it was a close fight and I could see how it could have gone either way. To me it seemed even after 8 and then Floyd had two big rounds out of the last 4. But I didnt score it. Either way Floyd has made me a fan, he is faster than I gave him credit for and he adapted after his defensive shell wasnt working. Plus he is hella funny too.

                  Honestly his body language didn't seem like he was trying to be offensive. He wasn't even smiling and dancing like he often does before the fight. I think he was doing it out of respect, kind of like when Felix trinidad wore the police hat after 9/11 in madison square garden. I may be wrong but, thats what I like to believe

                    I don't know, maybe the difference is that Cinco de Mayo has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Independence Day, American, Mexican, or otherwise.
