    Like people who were from the barrio(hood) were going for Morales, people from the burbs of Mexico were going for Barrera. It is what I kinda got from it. But, I only asked a few people though... I think in the rematch some Mexicans were turned off at Barrera cuz he took a cheap shot a press confrence and backed up so quick.

    But, the few people I asked I got it was divided down the middle... I wish at the time I was at a forum like this so I can better understanding. More people could of shared there opinion.

        And i bet you one of those e-thugs that would`nt dear say that **** to my face you clown.
        ***** please. The "I'm an e thug so I'll counter by calling you an e thug" **** is everyday talk around here. I didn't attack you mate, I asked you a question, you just got butthurt, so I **** on you in my next post.

        Don't ask serious questions if you don't want serious responses. You're a ****** kid on that "Money May is a straight G" ****, so you think all or almost all of our brothers like him. You're wrong. I and the other black fans who like him like him for his skills as a prizefighter, not because we're dumbass kids drawn in by his fake gangster persona.

          Interesting stuff. A writer felt their might be class issues in May vs Mosley. Kinda like the Evans family vs the Huxtables.

                  As a proud black man I will be rooting for Floyd Mayweather Jr. I enjoy watching pure boxing in its finest form and brother Floyd is among the best in the world.

                    That's a great point, Most people from Tijuana (My family included) Hated MAB and called him names like "chilango" because he was from Mexico D.F. I don't understand how Mosley doesn't have that big of a fanbase when he comes from LA!
