          i haven't read this entire thread so I am not sure anyone pointed this out......but Duran does have Mexican blood. Duran was born In Panama but his dad was Mexican. It may seem tedious but in this country it dosent matter where you are born, I was born in the USA but my dad is cuban, so i am called Hispanic and not american. As a result, Duran can be called Mexican-Panamanian, LOL.

            His dad was Mexican-American lol. Despite what some people say, there is a difference.

              yes he was an American Marine of Mexican background stationed at a base in panama. I consider myself american but in the US they call me latino or hispanic. But when i go to Japan or the Phillippines i am seen as American due to my passport and since i look like a white boy. Duran is Panamanian but Burner was not totally off he does have Mexican blood.

                  I'd agree only it was painfully obvious that Burner thought Duran was Mexican as in "from Mexico".

                    It doesn't really matter whether it's true or not. If it came from Burner himself, it must be a lie.
