    Mexican's might not like runners, but if that "runner" is relatively dominant and respected the world over they'd learn to like him.
    most of the cubans dont support this new era of slick fighters, Casa wasnt as good as rigo but he had more support, make no mistake, is the style...

      your theory is weak, DLH was the man until floyd beat him then DLH was still very popular and Manny whipped his ass. This catapulted Manny into the the star we know today. Floyd too, nobody really knew floyd til he beat DLH. Do you think it was the filipino fan base that made him have this cross-over appeal? NO he was knocking everyone one out and was a friendly guy who spoke pretty good broken english but US fell in love with him. stop trying to make everything about race
      Of course Manny's Filippino fanbase matters as well as him defeating DLH, as well as his style. Him being marked as the guy to beat Floyd helped/helps him also.

      Floyd defeating DLH,as you said, definitely played a part,but him playing the villain role, maintaining his 0, the 24/7 series etc helped him immensely also.

                Screw Lara...he's gonna get handled in a couple of weeks. Canelo is GBP's golden goose...no way they would've taken this fight, if they didn't know he could win.

                Lara is just another crybaby with a chip on his shoulder, which will hurt him in a couple of weeks. Every time he steps up to the plate, he fails to impress...I expect nothing less on July 12th...

                  Lara better knock Raggedy Ann out or at least hand him a good ass beating after talking all that **** if he wants to prove his point.

                    I disagree if they want to maintain power show the same respect for all fighters not just Mexicans ...i went to Floyd canelo promo your stop in ATL...Oscar was on canelo nuts but you supposed to promote both ...Floyd gives you percentage to help promote ....i like canelo but look at records Lara fought better fighters at the correct weight.....Lara is absolutely right
