A message to Robert Garcia, from a Cuban.

[DannYankee]

If you weren't insulted why did you follow me on some random thread on the lounge posting "Canelo's a b1tch" or something like that. You clearly thought we had some connection or something.

If you wanted an e-friend, you could have just asked.



lol, you really did think we had some type of connection.

Come here, lil' slugger.

Lol That is horse crap!! I was in a dumb thread minding my own bizwax slumming it, and you came with the grammar **** out of nowhere because you where previously mad at me over our colorful lara-canelo discussions. And my colorful response to your grammar jab was something like "Doesn't matter Canelo still a b*tch ". I am 99% sure that's exactly what happened.

Common sense? You don't think it's common sense to infer that people risking their lives to flee their own country for another land means that the place is NG? You think people are fleeing so they can wear gold chains and drive nice cars? Here's a news flash, bro: People in Cuba don't eat three times a day, and the food they do eat isn't the best, nor in great quan******. Where are you getting this?

The education I'll give you. But there's little monetary benefit you can pursue with your vaunted education. After all, this is communism. Remember? A doctor gets paid essentially what a common laborer makes, which is basically nothing. Hospital care? Mmmmm...to an extent. You know who really benefits from the Cuban medical system? Non-Cubans who travel to the country and pay next to nothing for medical services that costs many times more in their own countries.

Gu****uy Ot
Are Rigondeaux's wife and son in the US now or still in Cuba?

I prefer Cuban boxing style over the Mexican, Mikey Garcia will beat Gamboa in my opinion, but he will easily lose to the the likes of Donaire or Rigondeaux !

M.Garcia is one of my favourite active boxers indeed, he doesn't adopt the Mexican style in boxing

[Box-Office]

the pattern is obvious:

Robert vs Casamayor (owned)

Donaire vs Rigondeaux (owned)

Rios vs Abril (owned for ppl who actually had eyes open)

Mikey vs Gamboa (most definitely owned)

Though I dont belong to either of the communities but their fiters contribute to boxing in their own ways and i respect that, but Garcia's comments were petty and desperate starting a friction amongst two groups for no real reason, just one guy's comments and hopefully Gamboa lays out Mikey.

[VatoMulatto]

Garcia was wrong, and his reasoning for his rant against Cubans is because some cuban boxing fans were talking smack on twitter to him and his camp telling him to fight Gamboa.

That is lame, he knows full well he already had his view of Cubans before that twitter crap, Robert doesn't even have a twitter or a facebook or look at it he even said so himself.

He and Elie both share the same view on Cubans, elie even agreed with Robert so you know these two guys talked about it off camera.

Say what you want about Brandon rios, he cusses and sounds like a meathead but he won't judge an entire group of people like that. Rios should just get a new trainer already, Garcia is too laid back and always pigging out in the gym, wtf kinda trainer is eating every 30 minutes junk food in the gym?

I don't think Ellie share the same views....Does he even have any real opinions?? The only reason Elli agreed with Robert is because he's hanging out with Robert and his friends. Let Ellie hang out with some people that have negative views of Mexicans and he would co-sign that crap too. He's that type of person....My advice to Ellie would be: "Stand for something or fall for anything"

Hey Robert, for one, I don't understand why you are mad at Cubans for become residents in your country LEGALLY. It's your country's law, not ours. Maybe you should focus on those nationalities that are here in ILLEGALLY.

Also, No, we don't have it easy because unlike other nationalities that come to this country, we dont get to make our money and go back to our family and normal life back home.

And listen I get it, if Joel Casamayor had whopped my ass the way he did you, I'd be mad at Cubans too, and yes I know, another Cuban in Rigondeaux beating your top fighter problably didn't help either.

So, you're attacking a whole group of people over one comment made by a guy who happens to be American? Way to show how intelligent you are...

[soul_survivor]

The Garcia's are just punks...there's too many of these type of people in boxing these days.

[BendOver]

what robert garcia said is wrong and offensive..

but for my cuban american brothers or cubans who are now in the states , thank castro brothers ..coz without the asylum laws it would'nt be as easy to stay in the US ...

How many Cubans did you heard left the Island pre-castro?

What group?

[BendOver]

you think people fleeing cuba would get accepted freely had castro not ruled the country?...US hates castro reason why cubans who file for political asylum gets treated well..weLL , arent the government's job to better the lives of many ?..whch is more in a 3rd world country, rich or poor?..

If we didn't have castro we will not be fleeing, we love our Island and pre-commie we had it made...
