      Yes they are and that's why some language (that isn't even native American) is anything that should bond us. Jack doesn't understand because he's what we call a SELLOUT..plain and simple.

      Personally I don't have any problems with Puertoricans, my daughter is from a PR girl but there is no doubt that ethnicaly and culturaly, Mexicans and Puertoricans are very different.

          Language being the biggest bond for me.

          As a spanish speaking person, I tend to root for other spanish speaking fighters.

          If that calls me credibility into question in your eyes, thats your problem, not mine.
          I have no problem with your tendencies at all, but if you feel the NEED to root for another Latino fighter I can see how that could cloud your judgement. Im just saying if thats someones main criteria when picking fighters, there bias is in question, which can affect their credibility.

            Oh finally looked up Howard Zinn, I wil read more about him. see Jacky boy, unlike you, I admit when I don't know things. I guess growing up where I did I wasn't exposed to a lot of things you were since I didn't live with mommy like you and read conspiracy theories on the internet all day long.

            Well that's of course with breaks in between to play xbox....

                UK fighters suck big time.
