    Anyone who needs proof of racism needs to point nowhere else but here... you seriously hate a guy because he said he was figuratively half-Mexican?

    Jesus... calm down.
    All I said it’s embarrassing him calling himself “half-Mexican” when he is a full blooded American and trained in America. Not Tijuana

    Geez

    You need to calm down

            "Do you find that Shame Mosley is an embarrassment to American boxing? When he calls himself “half-Mexican” like it’s something positive."

            Half-Mexican like it's something positive... yeah, no chance that Mexicans can be anything positive, and my agenda is completely transparent... no racism here.

            Please don't treat me like I'm ****** Flawless... you don't even try to hide this **** very well, so I am kind of offended that you think a smart guy like me can't figure this **** out.

                .
                I do think its wrong when he says let like it’s something positive because he was training in the states and was born and breed there. Why would he call himself half Mexican when America has one of the best boxing cultures in the world?

                Don’t you find that embarrassing


                It would be a Mexicans saying I am "Half-American". That would be looked down on in mexico

                  Uhh...

                  No.

                  He says they fight like warriors... Mexicans mostly identify with the warrior mentality.

                  Morales, Barrera, Marquez, Chavez, etc.

                  All those guys had pretty good boxing skill, but fought like warriors for whatever reason. It's just what they do, and it is inherent in their culture to expect that from their fighters.

                  He was just saying that he doesn't use his speed to move and jab, instead, he uses it get the best of other fighters on the inside and win in an exciting fight.

                    I don't know what a typical American fighter fights like... there isn't a universal style that Americans seem to use.

                    Mexicans identify as warriors. Mosley identifies as a warrior. I don't see anything wrong with saying, I fight like Mexican fighters fight, because that was what he was trying to say.

                    And no, it's not ****ing embarrassing.

                    I don't give a ****, and I understand what he was saying, and there was **** wrong with it.

                      You are a poor example of an American boxing fan. That is why you don’t get this simple concept
