How is Danny Garcia not Puerto Rican?

[CANELOLUJAH]

Danny knows more Spanish than Floyd knows whatever language his native ppl speak. If he even knows what country or language that is. My point is comparing a Puerto Rican American to an African American like Floyd is dumb. Danny's parents are Puerto Rican born, Floyd's are American born. Most African Americans never been to any part of Africa. Almost every single Puerto Rican born in the USA has gone to Puerto Rico a few times in their life. It's just different bro. You don't get it I guess......

You dont get it, You call it dumb but your using the exact standards/reasoning to label Floyd as not African-American but in the same breath calling Danny Garcia a puerto rican.

Both have blood lines from a country? Correct?
Both cant speak their country of orgins languange? Correct?

but one is Puerto Rican-American and the other is not African-American?

lol,

Why the fuss over this??

[jose.sooto]

Is Oscar delahoya mexican ot American?
Is floyd mayweather african or American?
Is margarito mexican or american?

Margarito is a 100 % Mexican , he was just born in the U.S. but he was raised in Mexico and doesnt even speak english

De La Hoya now , thats different . He was born and raised in the states , he does speak spanish but most of us Mexicans see him as a "pocho".

[_original_]

idk why people throw a fit about, i think its just the butthurt texans hating for no reason..

nobody has a problem with guerrero or oscar or rios ect representing mexico

Oscar is a good representative for Mexican-Americans, don't compare him to those other two, especially Rios (Native American) who barely speaks kitchen Spanish.

But yes I agree, Danny Garcia says he's Puerto Rican and nobody has a right to hell him otherwise.

I like Danny Garcia a lot but this whole soy boricua thing is looking forced , it seems like he just trying to get the island to buy his PPVs.

If Floyd is African American because his ancestors came from Africa I guess everybody is African-something in a sense because everybody`s ancestors came from Africa too.

if it's like that all these light skin African Americans gon have to start claiming European countries too.
Like Ali being Irish. Lol

Danny can speak spanish, it's hurt but he can speak it. His father talks to him in Spanish at times in between rds. Floyd doesn't even know what country or the language his great grand mothers mother is tied too. Danny rocks PR flags on his trunks, Floyd doesn't acknowledge any African country. It's not the same.

Just because danny holding on to that .02% of culture he has left and Floyd is completely whitewashed doesnt change the fact, they both are some hyphen American or not, but it not one of the other. they either both a hyphen american or they are both not.

[elgranluchadore]

people nationality is what they see themselves as imo.
if danny started carrying around the puerto rican flag, he would be putorican, if he came with the american flag he would be a gringo
