    NO, it's just something kind of funny. And I'm Mexican. Funnier the first time, but at least the gag stayed in the family.

      Well I think only Mexicans can judge if it's really disrespectful or not. Oscar De La Hoya didn't have a problem with it, and neither did Floyd's cutman (who is also Mexican).

      Floyd said it was out of respect.

      Personally, I thought it was kind of funny.

          Is that how you spell it?


          Anyways you can't use racial epithets here unless you spell them backwards..

            Ruiz was a true mexican.. and he hugged. I grew up around mexicans and still hang out with mostly mexicans and even they said that if it was Oscar vs. another mexican then Oscar would be counted as the "american". Why all of a sudden does Mexico back Oscar? I'm pretty sure Oscar vs. JCC showed that Oscar was hated in Mexico because he wasn't afraid to show the flag of the COUNTRY THAT MADE HIM GREAT. What was that country again? Oh ****, America.

            And yes, Floyd was wearing the sombrero and mexican colors out of disrespect.. and I was laughing the whole ****ing time. Everyone else around me, who happened to be mexican, wasn't though.. which made it x10 funnier.

            Callate pinche cabrone, viva Floyd Mayweather!

              It was definately intended as a sign of respect. You want to know how I know this? Everyone in Mayweather's camp who came to the ring with him had shirts that said "Mayweather Loves Mexico" on them. For him to have his whole camp wearing those T-shirts and be trying to disrespect Mexico wouldn't make much sense now would it?

                  Ruiz is Puerto Rican smart guy.



                  And no, it was not a show of respect that had Floyd coming out with sombrero and t-shirts. That said, I found it hilarious. He came out trying to stir the pot and he did so. Hats off to you. It was just another element of a truly big event.

                      Uh..didn't his father or someone like this dress up against JCC when he boxed?

                      That could be why just like all of the other legit reasons.

                      **** does this guy sound like the one talking about how mayweather is offensive to mexicans and how he's a coon?
