    I didnt mean it as a bad thing. And yes he'd wipe out the likes of Andy Kolle in a round or two.

      you've got to be kidding. i"m mexican american and he clearly looks hispanic to me and specifically of mexican descent. Mexican culture is a mestizo culture and DLH fits within that range.

        Margarito is currently at the top of his game and coming off a huge win while DLH has received criticism among boxing fans over career moves that he has recently made therefore Margarito is probably the more respected of the two at the moment but DLH still has a larger overall fanbase in the US. DLH also still has a very enthusiastic fan base in the Chicano community but most Mexican born fans are obviously going to root for their champ Margarito.

        And no DLH aint white, he looks like a mestizo chicano on the lighter side. His father is brown skinned and his grandfather looks full Indian.
        That pretty much sums up my feelings. I was once a bigger fan of Oscar than I am today because of career decisions and the way he fought. I was ecstatic when he shut Vargas's mouth, but he has become a business first, fans last type of guy. Margarito, on the other hand, is coming off a huge win and can gain even greater respect if he doesn't start making bad choices now that he's in the driver's seat.

            I live in Phoenix, my GF is Mexican, her parents speak no English and there are 3 white people where I work, the rest are either from Mexico or are 1st generation American with Mexican immigrant parents. They all love Oscar, every one of them. You're talking to some knockoff Mexicans man, lol.

                  The Reason why Oscar Gets so much heat...(Mainly from Mexicans)
                  Is because he is fortunate enough to come from a race of people
                  who love boxing and will support him, and the problem is for Oscar...

                  Every Time Oscar goes out and fights a Manny Pacquaio, instead one of his own in a Antonio Margarito. He is Pissing off his own Base of People, Who already a luke warm relationship with him.


                  Oscar is a superstar in the Sport of boxing
                  But Being a Mexican Superstar in the sport of boxing carries more weight.
                  And Oscar is refusing to put himself in the box that most of my mexican friends want to put him in.

                  Which is, a Mexican Warrior....

                  I hear it all the time... Oscar is a sellout...
                  and this is coming from his own people.

                  Thats why I will ask the question

                  Who is more Respected to Mexicans?

                  Margarito or Oscar from a respect Standpoint.!!

                  its Muhammad Ali you silly noob.
