Sorry guys, but this whole latino thing is bull****.
The 'latino' people are a result of crossbreeding between white AND the indigenous people of north america. This 'race' didn't even exist until the past 300-400 years.
Latino - LATIN, aka, descended from people of countries such as Spain, Portugal, Italy etc etc.
Obviously you'd have to go back hundreds of years to find the true heritage of fighters such as Sergio Martinez, Barrera, Alvarez, Morales, Margarito.
Some are gonna have more european ancestry and some are gonna have more native american.
I find it hard to believe that you can say someone like Sergio Martinez is 100 percent LATINO, wtf? How does he look any less white than the average spanish soccer player?
Then again, I have friends who are white who when in the sun have much darker skin tones than people such as Juan Manuel Marquez, Miguel Cotto etc
You guys need to realize that Europe consists of a LOT of countries. Scotland, England, France, Wales, Russia, Germany, Spain, Greece, hell, even parts of Turkey is considered part of Europe.
You guys gonna tell me that guy above isn't white??? SPANISH, yet he looks more latino than Martinez and Julio Cesar Chavez put together!
You don't have to have the skin tone of Casper the friendly ghost to be considered white. You have caucasians with varying skin colours just like you have blacks with varying skin shades.
You gonna tell me that Antonio Tarver and Roy Jones are a different race?
This race thing is complete bull****. Support your nation but forget race, it's BULL****.
Stop trying to CLAIM fighters as your race. Otherwise me and my Irish granddad are gonna kidnap Saul Alvarez and staple an Irish Flag to his back.
