It's not based on race?? U serious?? He just said he has not seen a Pakistani that can fight. Is it racist? Probably not depending on how u take it but offensive? Yes!Really? I have a brain and even thou I dont like Angel Garcia, I can clearly see that his comments are not based on race. He is not being racist. Some people are making this bigger than it is. Next time some idiot comes to me saying that Spain is going to spank PR in the football game and use the same reasoning Angel used I'm to call him racist too.Last edited by Evol; 07-12-2012, 10:58 AM.Comment

I agree it's not racist, its called boxing. How many times did Ali call fighters out of there name and race? It happens all the time and your talking about a man Garcia Sr who comes from a great boxing history (Puerto Rico) and should know a thing or two about boxing and if he's ever seen a great Pakistani fighter. It's just his opinion.

You probably are offended. But if the comment was the other way around, I wouldnt be offended. It is the true. Pakistan is not known for boxing. HOW IS THAT RACIST?
Nigeria won a pass to the Olympics in male basketball. They are not known for being a good team, even thou the great Hakeem is from Nigeria. Were they offended by being the underdog, just base on them not being known as a basketball country? No, they were not offended. They knew they have to prove the world they can play.
Angel is a dumb mofo, but racist, he is not. Part of our culture is learning our mestizo heritage. Part of our culture is learning that white, black and native made Boricuas. I would say the same **** he did any day because is the truth and I'm not racist.Comment

Your football analogy is ******!! That is a generalization of a team being better than another. That has NOTHING to do with saying that one team cannot play because of their race or nationality. If you cannot discern between a generalization and a specific racial comment, you are ***ing hopeless!Comment

IF i was pakistani YES i would be offended. since im not why would i be? your comparision is way off about the nigeria part. Do u think nigeria would be offended if the whole world or say the team they're palyig against made a public statement saying all africans cant ball? i never said what angel said was racist, i said it was offensive. Imagine if team khan said something like that.You probably are offended. But if the comment was the other way around, I wouldnt be offended. It is the true. Pakistan is not known for boxing.

Education 101. If you insult a team and say they are not that good of a team, that is not a racial slur. If you say they are not that good because they are white, black, or Asian, THAT is a racial slur! I work in a school system this type of thing has been covered in meetings and clearly defined in dictionary definitions! This is NOT ARGUABLE!!!Comment
