    there will always be a great mexican fighter around the corner.. a chicano one is just as hard to find as a black american fighter now a days.
    What's the difference? I thought Chicanos were Mexicans with Indian blood. Vargas looks pretty Indian or Aztec should I say. De La Hoya doesn't really.

            I only know a few very large Chicanos, even Chris Arreola said damn, I am Mexican, I never thought I would be this big, 6' 4 and weighing 423 pounds

            You are Chicano but you don't know any Chicanos? Where do you live in Africa?

              Chicano's typically aren't big like heavyweights, and if they are, they look like Chris Arreola.

                  Mexicans are born in Mexico, Chicanos are born in the USA.

                      Chris is trying to be the first.

                      I will be rooting for him but he has to believe in himself first.
