But his whole demeanor and way of talking just seems like an act. It's also pretty weird how he tries to talk black so to speak. If any of you have followed him on snapchat he's used the n word multiple times. It feels a lot like watching that kid who was always trying to speak like mayweather and Broner.

Rosado I think talks more than he can back up but he shows heart so I give him cred for that. Garcia on the other hand isn't as annoying as his father but he's been backing up all his father's ***** so he gets major cred for that too.
For those in question of why they act like that, it's clearly a Philly thing. Don't you white boys ever get out to the hood once in a while to know this *****? Damn.

He's from Philly lol. I don't think he's fake but he tried to act likes tough guy too much. Like before the Charlo fight and Stevens too. Like this is the streets and he can intimidate them or something. It would work if he wasnt gate keeper

he is a good boxer don't get me wrong but he just needs to work on more of his boxing and not his talking.

Philly got a lot of blacks and hispanics mixed up, and the culture rubs off on the people so you got a lot of Ricans dressing "black" or whatever. It's just how the environment is. If you go to Oakland you see the same thing but with Mexicans.
Both guys are from the same area and same ethnicity.. So it make sense for them to have similarities.

But I never mentioned wanting gabe to lose. I even said he's a brave fighter with heart. Hell, I don't like mayweather as a person but I appreciate his skills and sometimes even root for him.
I didn't grow up in America so your whole idea of East Coast, Hispanic or urban predudice doesn't ring a bell for me. I just thought it was an odd way for him to talk and disrespecting shane Mosley seemed a bit far.

Everyone has an accent. They shape who you are and where you come from. They allow strangers to judge you within a split-second of opening your mouth.
A white kid who grows up in a black neighborhood and has black friends most of his upbringing will have the same accent they do. Danny Garcia and his father Angel Garcia both have african american accents. Does that mean they are "fake" ?
Even if Rosado is faking an accent, I have nothing against it. Some singers fake their accents to sell themselves why shouldn't boxers.
