Mexicans have the well-earned reputation of coming to fights with everything and letting it all hang out; seldom do you find in their ranks pugs who fight like a Sugar Ray Leonard, Pernell, PBF, WBenitez (who is from Puerto Rico and not Mexican), prime Roy Jones, Jr....
It's such a marvel that so many of them rack up half-century- fight- tallies in their careers with KOs and KDs scantly blemishing their records.
Of course there are many steel-chinned fighters from other nationalities--Gatti used to take so much-- but in general terms, I think the Mexicans have it.
And, yes, Asians aren't too bad. All you have to do is watch a handful of Muay Thai (Thai Kick Boxing) fights in ****kok to see that.
Is it in the water?
