Garcia the puerto rican Margarito

[jtcs1981]

I'm sorry, its just a dated concept and ideology that one cannot represent their true heritage just because they don't "rep" it like you do nor eats what you do. I was born near Philly and my parents were both born in PR. I feel that I'm every bit as Puerto Rican as you. Just because I was born in America and I can't stand the taste of guineos doesn't mean I'm less PR. I visit my family once a year, maybe twice and I'm happy and they're happy about the life I've made out here.

All that PR flag waving day in and day out doesn't make you more Puerto Rican, it just means that your feeling shallow and insecure about yourself and the island. I mean all this divisiveness about who's born where and who's more authentic is some 19th century *****.

At the end of the day, Danny is PR and reps it. His fighting in the ring and wearing a flag does more to highlight PR than you've done. I like it because his small gesture of acknowledging his heritage is a welcome sight. He doesn't need to be d****d in a PR trunks, with PR bandanna, flag and robe to be a full PR.

War Danny

On topic: I see the similarities on how they throw hooks. I think Danny is a bit sharper, and they both have great beards and looks like stamina has that stamina. Margs was a beast on volume though. Plus I think Danny has more technical skills all around. Its a decent comparison, just a little off-center

Tu crees que eres Boricua? Sabes nuestra historia? Entiendes el amor patrio que nos enseņan a nosotros? Entendiste lo que acabo de preguntarte?

That is what he is saying. Every time I see the so called ricans in the parades and they dont even understand and know our country, they can wave all the flag they want to, but that doesnt make them rican. And you probably can understand that, you've been here and you know there is a difference between the ricans americanized and the ricans from the island. I'm not doubting your pride and you knowing it, but like El Huracan we doubt those who wave the flag but dont know about the true meaning of Patria.

Man you dont have to eat guineos if you dont like them (though I wonder if you really mean guineos and are not confusing them with platanos), and like I said, being puerto rican isnt just about what you eat, its a combination of knowledge and customs.

Do you know who is Luis Muņoz Marín? Luis A. Ferré? Gilberto Concepción? Do you know whats going on in the island right now?

There is no such thing as a true puerto rican by blood cause we come from various races and indigenous blood is but a small sample in most of our genes.

What separates a true american, a true puerto rican, a true dominican, is knowing and showing what you are. Do not forget your culture, your customs that make you different from other nationalities.

Telling me Danny is just as PR as me if not more is offensive and shows what you know. Ive actually gone to other countries and have taught people of what we are when they asked, I never went to them to tell them: "Yo, do you know about Puerto Rico?". I dont even bring a flag with me or a shirt that says Puerto Rico.

I do enough with learning songs like "En mi Viejo San Juan", "Amanecer Borincano", "Lamento Borincano", etc, besides knowing about things a puerto rican should know about.

Its funny cause I went to Argentina and had a geography teacher put Puerto Rico next to Cuba. I of course corrected her

If Danny is asked, he probably says: "Yeah its an island somewhere in the Caribbean next to Cuba and Dominican Republic... somewhere between Jamaica."

Hell I would give all my points to the guy who could see how much Danny actually knows about the island.

Khan can ****??

Back to the subject of the post..... exactly who has Khan stopped and hurt at 140???

Salita??

I'm sure Danny does have a good chin but Amir is not a good gauge

I have five nephews living in the state, 3 of them were born there. One of them have a tattoo of a PR flag. They all have been in PR plenty of time. But like them and many others they dont know our history. Eating arroz con gandules, pasteles and parrandeando doesn't make you Rican. And I'm not saying that all Ricans raised there dont know our culture. My two older brother and sisters live there their whole life but they know PR, they know our culture, they speak Spanish better than some kids in the island and they are proud of it everywhere without carrying a flag or going to the parades.

Si Danny se siente boricua, Good for him. But fans, specially us rican fans who are effin sensitive due to our effing chauvinism, shouldnt been crowning him as a rican when Danny himself claims Philadelphia before PR. That pride is nothing like LaPorte or Benitez.

Yeah but if there is a standard, than that is not you and its not me. because no one really knows what that standard is. So who are you to set the standard? The way i see it, if you are not proud of it, you won't represent it. There are plenty of people who are ashamed of their race, who deny their race and at least this guy is proud of his roots.

There actually should be a standard, cause the same problem we have with nationalities now is the same problem we have with religion.

Now everybody is catholic without everybody being. "Oh yeah Im a catholic, but I like ****ing every girl I see without listening to the commandments. I also shoot anybody who gets within a 100 yards of my property, and ********** 2 times a day at least, but yeah Im a catholic, Padre nuestro que estas en el cielo santificado sea tu nombre..."

"Oh yeah Im a puerto rican, but I dont know in what year the island was discovered, I dont know the anthem and who wrote it and I know ish about the country's politics, so dont ask me who the current governor is, but yeah Im a puerto rican.. Oh say can you seee...!!!."

Wow bro I new you were a hater when I read your first post. You try to sound smart but what you said actually shows how ignorant you really are you think we don't know those songs and do parandas and drink coquito how the **** do we fit in with these americanos doing parandas... please bro we have way to many puerto ricans over here reppin the island for you to be saying that ****. If it wasn't for us there wouldn't be any Spanish day parade a matter of fact your welcome we (us puerto ricans) own the most popular city in the world go there and you'll see the affects of the spanish culture. So STOP HATING!

By your own standards half the people on the island don't qualify! haha!

Jokes aside, pa' todos mi manitos Boricua in this thread

If you want to bring clarity to the question of Self-Identity among the Puerto Rican community, at home and abroad (or our family en los Grandes Antilles as a whole, porque en realidad, por sangre, historia y voluntad..todos somos unos)....start by taking the time and educating your brothers instead of demeaning them and berating them for being ignorant to certain things. You weren't born with this information, so it does not belong to you.

Start by identifying what it really means to be a Boricua...give them political education, arm them with the information they need for self-determination, create solidarity for the fight for INDEPENDENCE of Borinken, advocate for environmentally sustainable practices like our ancestors did (so called "Tainos", which isn't even a real Borinken term ANY f**kin way)...Educate them about the proud and rich history of the island, teach the truth...about its history of colonialism, U.S. Imperialist occupation, about slavery, about the exploitation and POLITICAL manipulation of the RELIGION many of YOU still claim...About Campos & Filiberto....

it's deeper than a dish, a dance, or an accent. And it's CERTAINLY deeper than arguing about a Puerto Rican boxer born in Philadelphia on a boxing forum.

So Borikua...PONTE PA'LO TUYO......

y pa'lante con la independencia de Borinken.

Man you keep misunderstanding me. Ok I will leave you a few questions every puerto rican should know. Lets see how much you know about Puerto Rico.

1)In what month day and year was PR discovered?

2)Who is the current governor and to what is his political party?

3)What is the name of the puerto rican anthem?

4)Who is our current abanderado in the 2012 Olympics?

5)What islands do we have to our North, South, East, and West?


Five painfully easy questions for you to answer and I give you 30 minutes.
