    Omar Henry; half american, half Rican; will he get full support?

    Omar Henry is half african american, half puerto rican. He lives, trains, & fights in America. I dont know if he can speak spanish.

    My question is, will he get the same love & support from Puerto Rico?

    Or will he meet the same fate as Oscar de la Hoya & all the other mexican-american fighters get, a love hate relationship & not the full embrace,loyalty, & love & support of the motherland & its real population?

    Will omar henry be labled a "pocho" by the 100% born puerto rican much like the de la hoyas & david diazes get by the "pure" mexican born fight fans?

        No he won't...

        Ricans from the island don't embrace/support Mixed Puerto Ricans (especially the ones mixed with African American).

          Maybe if he was 1/2 American, 1/2 Rican and 1/2 Mexican he would get more support but he doesn't have enough halves to make it happen.

                  Tito is from P.R, he gets embraced by the full blooded Boricuas, if he was mixed with some other **** he wouldn't get the same support he receives if he's full P.R.
