    Most Puerto Rican boxers are overrated

    We all know the best way to build up your skills is to fight in the USA. A very disturbing trend I've noticed with Puerto Rican fighters is that they don't really fight in the U.S. unless it's against stiff tomatoe cans. And when they do step it up they get beaten down (Cotto, Trinidad, Camacho, Collazo, Cintron and so forth). Watch, when PR's next biggest hype job Juanama Lopes steps it up against Marques or Vasques he'll be the next to fall. There are only like 3 places on earth where you can build a rep in boxing and still get respect: United States, Mexico and the United Kingdom. Just something I've noticed. Sorry but true.

        Mexicans expose Puerto Ricans? if so why is the Puerto Rican vs. Mexican rivalry 40-27 in favor of Puerto Rico, Puerto Ricans are far from being overrated they fight everyone, Cotto has fought everyone they put in front of him, Tito fought everyone, Juan Manuel Lopez is fighting everyone he can but he is being ducked by the best, Ivan Calderon is making Mexico's best (Edgar Sosa and Ulises Solis) run away and you also say that to get respect in boxing you have to fight in the U.S, Mexico or Europe then our fighters should be very well respected since we have champions fighting everywhere in the world and dominating, not like you're Mexican bums that only fight in Mexico and when they fight anywhere else you get exposed.

            Are you making excuses from your fighters from Mexico, if they're so great why don't they all beat us instead of selected few who do.

                your counting fighters like cesar figueroa as a defeat over mexican fighters, thats what u guys keep counting.. did he even stand a chance against lopez? i dont think so... Not ALL the fighters from Mexico are great, only fighters like, Chavez, Finito, Marquez bros, Castillo, Vazquez, Margarito etc, are great fighters from Mexico, not Figueroas

                also one of our journeymen "Jose Angel Beranza " recently exposed your highly touted prospect Jesus Rojas

                  maybe PRican boxers are just building up their fanbase in PR?

                    Haha what a illegitimate statement.
                    Your blatantly bias and stating a less than inteligent
                    opinion that is clearly unjustified and not supported by any
                    solid factual information.
                    All I hear is "hate hate hate"
                    BTW that picture of Marquez is against Casamayor who happens to be from Cuba.
