      How does one conclude the another?
      I mean, Margarito was like the only mexican fighter whome you could call "prime" and "premiere", Marquez aside, who aint gonna be in boxing much longer.

      Oh, and frankly, I would not be surprised if the majority of fighters are on that oil either. Thats how it works in most competative sports aside gold and nascar.

          If Americans stopped boxing, then one of the biggest financier(THE US) of the sport would immedaitely pull out the majority of its funds immediately. While Mexicans may supply the most action for a single ethnicity, your statement is still completely FALSE.

              What are you trying to accomplish with this statement? Are you trying to help out Mexicans? Trust me, you're not.

              Are you even Mexican? Or just an alt who is trying to be clever and start some more **** around here?

                  boxing was alive way before mexico came along, it will survive without mexicans.

                      Mexican and Mexican-American fighters can be entertaining, but for some reason the hype seems to overcome them often. Just see Margarito/Mosley, Trinidad/Vargas and Pacquiao/[insert Mexican legend here]. Sometimes, skill is just superior to "heart". The American, Philipino and Puerto Rican programs launch technically sound boxers into professionalism, most Mexicans enter the professional circuit out of nesesity, in the long run that hurts them, they take too many blows or get involved in too many trading wars. Just look at Vargas' current status.
