Mexicans are the most overrated fighters of all time. Juan Manuel Marquez has no boxing ability and blocks punches with his faces, he isnt flashy and all mexicans are taking our agricultural and custodial jobs which are the best jobs on the market.

You probably should, being a fighter. Is it a demographic change in the number of americans vs the # of mexicans boxing? Or is it also a style change? Or is it just a media exposure change?

EDIT: And you are right though. I don't really care, but I am wondering why that is.
