    Thats what I am saying. Its hard to be a racist when you deal with decent people of that race everywhere you go. Mexicans are very accepted in California compared to certain other people.

      He's a graduate of Harvard, a lawyer and arguably the most successful promoter in the history of the sport. It's an honor to be as "dumb" as him.

        That's your opinion, but it's very inaccurate.

          If you really think there is an anti Mexican sentiment in California, you need to take a look in the mirror.

            And being a ****ing graduate from Harvard, he should be smarter than this. Pulling the race card on a state that the race he is saying is being threated unfairly, is the Majority. Yep really smart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

              No, it really isnt. I have lived in and hung out in Orange County, LA, Ventura, and the IE my whole life. If you think people are racist towards you, it probably has more to do with 1) how you present yourself and 2) what your expecting.

                In California, the state with the biggest Mexican population, the number of hate crimes against Mexicans has almost doubled in the last few years. With so much emphasis on the border by the media in recent years, there has been an increase in animosity towards Mexicans. It doesn't take a genious to figure it out.

                    When someone unnecessarily uses race to win an argument or to help their twisted cause it hurts the people who have legitimate claims of racism. And that sucks.

                    If there was no evidence confiscated in this case (but there was) and it was just somebody's word against somebody's elses, then maybe... maybe he could argue racism.

                    To me, if Arum wanted to gain public support, he should have kept attacking the CSAC for not properly doing its job during the pre-fight wraps. After all, it was the opposing trainer who found the illegal material, not the inspectors... the same inspectors that testified at the hearing. The inspectors are incompetent and should be under scrutiny as well. I don't agree with what Arum is doing, but if he's gonna cry about this, he should have tried to turn the tables on them and say the same people who can't do their job are now testifying against my fighter. Why should you believe they can come to a correct conclusion if they can't even do their job right.
