    And I rooted for Salido in the second Rocky fight. Nothing personal against Rocky, I just prefer the Mexican style of fighting.

    The only PRican fighters I feel proud about are Trinidad and (RECENT) Juanma Lopez (despite his downfall and whatnot, he is a great person and goes to war like a true warrior). I also like Verdejo but too early to tell if he will become a coward like Cotta.

    I completely agree with the bold, same way here.

    ALSO, let's put it out there, THERE'S A LITTLE MOVEMENT IN THIS FORUM of black posters who hate GGG due to his skin color. LET'S SAY IT LIKE IT IS OKAY.

    They can't stand a light skinned fighter being the FACE of the sport, the STRONGEST/MOST DOMINANT fighter in boxing.

    Sorry, I just had to say it because it goes with the theme of this thread. Because if a black person here cries RACISM, there is an outrage, actions taken. But when us white folks SCREAM racism, we get ignored and it's like NO BIGGIE.
    ok which is it????

      That's how you gauge how good opponents are or how warriors are classified?

                    Ok I'll bite, excluding someone that is bi-racial, how can a person be white (Caucasian) and Puerto Rican? I grew up in the Bay Area in a diverse community and this is the first time I've heard of such a thing. Sounds like some kind of trend........

                      Yeah I saw it.

                      He was probably raised without learning Spanish, which is why he doesn't have a Hispanic accent. It's common among Puerto Ricans who live in the States to have shame in their Hispanic culture and become "White" and grow up speaking "White". I think Americanized puerto ricans are the only Hispanics this happens to.
