If Floyd Mayweather was Mexican, would he be more popular?

I don't understand the question because the idea that Floyd is not popular is a myth created by haters on message boards and boxing "journalists" who don't like him. Which Mexican fighter, other than De La Hoya has sold more than 1 million PPV buys. De La Hoya's two biggest selling PPV fights were 2.4 million against Mayweather and 1.4 million against Trinidad. Floyd has already matched that. How can he be more popular?Comment

Yeah but Puerto Rico always loses their big fights with Mexico. Trinidad is the only exception, and he had loaded gloves too lol. It's funny cause both guys were caught by ****m, and both eventually got KTFO without their hand wraps.
As for Floyd, he would be loved in Mexico like Marquez is loved in Mexico, only slightly less entertaining. lol Mexicans wanna see fighters who go hard, they love the beat downs. I mean it took Marquez years to become beloved in Mexico it seems like. And all his fights are far more sexy than Marco Antonio' Barrera's.Last edited by Alex_Hayden; 06-01-2010, 05:04 PM.Comment

Common sense tells me that Cotto doesn't know how to clinch, is weak vs uppercuts, couldn't hit Margarito with his body punching, couldn't hurt Margarito. But anyways, our views are different but FACT is that he still has that loss to him.

What does it matter Mexican or Black either way they would be ********** in the United States.
I hope this isn't another thread where someone is trying to convince everyone that somehow Black Boxers are more persecuted than every other race of boxers because if it is that just further justifies the sterotype that ********** in the US are nothing more than crybabies who are just looking for a free ride.Last edited by pistol whip; 06-01-2010, 05:17 PM.Comment

People buying your fights in droves because they want to see your ass getting handed to you does not equal a beloved fighter.I don't understand the question because the idea that Floyd is not popular is a myth created by haters on message boards and boxing "journalists" who don't like him.
