Ivan Calderon Interview he speaks better english then Most Mexican Boxers.

Let's see.......hmmmmm.....let me think......

Maybe because they are Mexicans, speak their national language...SPANISH.

Puerto rico is part of the US and therefore have much more American influences. To school you a bit, there are a lot of "Angelsismos" in PR. Meaning they have a lot of English influences because of their unique situation.

Yup this is why. Good post and it isn't because one people is "smarter" than the other people. There's alot of extended PR families in the US as well in NYC and in Florida.

[Pico Hollywood]

America ownes them so they should be able to devote a little of their time to learn english

It's actually "anglisismos", which means euphemisms. That is not true at all, we are taught English in school just like Americans are taught Spanish. Some learn it well, but the vast majority have extremely poor to below average skills. The English language is NOT spoken in Puerto Rico.

I agree, however, that the thread starter made a very ****** and racist remark. Most Puerto Ricans speak better English than Americans speak Spanish, but that is not because we are "smarter", and the same goes for Mexicans and Puerto Ricans.

In Calderon's case though, he was raised in the U.S., so that is a very important reason why his English is much better than, say, Cotto's, or Tito's (lol)

I agree, so it isn't fair to say they speak better english then Mexicans.

dumb, dumb thread

tito yuca was basically right in what he said, and plus he seems to be puerto rican so he knows what he is talking about

domain you are a simple minded young man, i would seriously recommend an IQ test because if you are below 75 IQ points (which you may well be) you qualify as mentally ******ed and you might get a special helper to go around with you and help you to avoid doing dumb things (like this thread)
