    I guess you can call yourself whatever you want. Who really cares? But since your using your argument for supporting Cotto because you think he's more cultural similar, well then your argument is flawed. The Philippines have a much stronger cultural connection with Mexico, than Mexico has with Puerto Rico.
    White master?WTF?I don't mind calling myself a Latino or Hispanic, that's how we are categorized just like a white person would be called an Anglo-Saxon or Caucasian.I was just referring to the fact that some Mexicans feel like they should be getting special treatment when it comes to this issue.Like I said, I don't hear Cubans or Puerto Ricans making a fuss about it.

    And about Cotto, did you not read my posts?I said that was a part of why I was supporting him not the whole reason!I also said I was supporting him for the great person and boxer that he is!

So is me and the national song. Be more proud and do it right....
            That's not true, MEXICO WITH AN "X" COMES FROM THE MEXICAS.


            Properly speaking, all the Nahua-speaking peoples in the Valley of Mexico were Aztecs, while the culture that dominated the area was a tribe of the Mexica (pronounced "me-shee-ka") called the Tenochca ("te-noch-ka").

            If you want to take out the X from Mexico and pronounce it from its Mexica roots, then it will be Mesheeco.

            And why it's pronounce with a "J" is because of the spanish.

            For example they have a city in Spain called XEREZ, but they pronounce the X with a "J".

                I'm supporting Pacman on this one but I respect and like Cotto a lot! Sometimes I brought in the subject of the "knees" but just to kick the balls of some posters here but I really admire both Pacman and Cotto

                    haha, everytime he is interviewed by TV Azteca, he ends the interview saying something like "un Saludo para todos mis amigos mexicanos".

                    And he has a better accent than most gringos that learn spanish for years.
