Robert Garcia insults the Cuban Community (Video)

[CubanGuyNYC]

WOW that coward Sekbah filed a complaint and got the video removed!

lol That little bitch must be reading all the comments on this board and quivering at the thought of getting jumped by some pissed-off Cubans. lol

HOW dare that man give his opinion...

Whats sad is alot of you are *****ing and moaning about it calling racism, go on throw that word out for more impact.

I'm a racist for not agreeing with you and going with the consensus.

Too much *****ing about words said, fact is he's a grown adult he is allowed to make his own choices without a bunch of idiots coming out with pitchforks citing a witch-hunt.

Let me get this straight, it is fine for Garcia to express his opinion but if others express their opinion about his opinion then there is a problem? You really haven't thought this through have you?

People in this thread are f**kin' ******s. Cubans ARE LUCKY that they get immediate asylum when they come to the United States. A Mexican would be deported. You don't see Guillermo Rigondeaux, Erislandy Lara and Yuriorkis Gamboa being put in immigration jail like Alfredo Angulo, which is why they are LUCKY. Cubans are LUCKY that they have a privilege that Mexicans and other immigrants don't have. Yes, Cubans die trying to make it to the U.S., but they have that LUCKY privilege of getting immediate asylum, whereas Mexicans die trying to make it to the U.S. but don't have that privilege of immediate asylum.

Indians and Mexicans are the only people who are native to the continent of North America. Everyone else is an immigrant. Indians get put on reservations and Mexicans are "illegal aliens". You people are f**kin' sickening thinking that the history of North America starts with the United States. My people have been here for thousands of years.

I think you must be the ****** if you cannot understand the meaning of Garcia's various comments. He was not expressing a matter of fact opinion about the relevant advantages of being a Cuban versus being a non-Cuban in gaining residency in the US. His comments were a lot more hostile than that.

Mexicans are native to the continent of North America you f**kin' ******. The Southwestern U.S. was Mexico. We didn't cross any border, the border crossed us.

All true.

But there's a difference between the way that you're expressing your thoughts and the way Garcia expressed himself. His words and his tone were obviously intended to taunt and ridicule Cubans. If you didn't vibe that, I don't know what to tell you.

Another difference between your comments and his: Garcia is a known boxing trainer, followed and admired by many young and/or impressionable people. Also, his comments were publicly broadcast on an internet site everyone around the world uses. You and I, and everyone here, are just anonymous posters no one really pays attention to. Big difference.

The fact that Elie Seckbach removed the video speaks volumes.

Let me get this straight, it is fine for Garcia to express his opinion but if others express their opinion about his opinion then there is a problem? You really haven't thought this through have you?

I imagine he thinks "Mein Kampf" was just Hitler's opinion; and we should all respect it, because it was...well, his opinion.

Thank you.

I'm afraid that one or two people on here may actually think that!

I have seen people make these same comments time and time again on here, they are either too ****** to not see the flaws in their reasoning or they actually agree with the comments and try to hide behind a flawed idea of free speech to justify the comments.

So you're comparing Garcia to a man who literally roasted millions of people? You're beyond ****** and it has nothing to do with nationality. What he said is the truth. Because you're more sensitive than a bruise, you're making the statement out to be something its not.

Mexicans are native to the continent of North America you f**kin' ******. The Southwestern U.S. was Mexico. We didn't cross any border, the border crossed us.

I said the united states you cunt not north america there is no "native america country" we took their **** and now they have no nation we have them in reservations there is however a mexico. But I cant believe you really are crying about the sale of mexican territory if that is what you are saying somehehow which would make no fking sense. Mexicans who stayed here the border didn't cross **** more like mexican territories got sold out after the war,and the United states bought California, Nevada, Utah, most of Arizona, and parts of Colorado, Wyoming, and Arizona, as-well as parts of New Mexico, for a grand total of about 25 million if you didn't know that you are dumber than Garcia.

Now to the grand flaw of your defense of Garcia....what the fk does immigration have to do with boxing? I will make it simple here is an example;If you told me Gamboa is scared I would say "no because he has been chasing Mikey" My answer wouldn't fking be "mexicans are lucky we even let them stay in this country" Because one thing has 0 fking things to do with the other unless i'm trying to be a pr*ck which Garcia was trying to because he was b*tthurt.

No he was not comparing Garcia to Hitler. For your own sake I really hope you don't think that because you'd need to be, to quote you, 'beyond ******'.

What did he say? I can't find the video.


I'm part Cuban so I'm ready to woop Ellie's ass

[buckfangs]

what exactly did he say? i use to have a lot of respect for Robert i use to watch pretty much all his interviews and videos on Ellie's channel but i've stopped about a month ago, the guy went from humble to egotistical and the whole Freddie Roach situation left this guy bitter
