    Although you're technically correct, the lists I've seen do include them. De La Hoya not so much. But Vargas definitely is. Third generation Mexican, maybe, but considers himself totally Mexican.

      LMAO at a few losers talking up the championship wins of a 125-million people country over a 3.5-million people island....... when the actual tally is something like 55-47 in favor of Puerto Rico.

        It goes by where you were raised. Margo was born in USA but raised in Mexico. Same with Cotto. Both count for rivalry

          goes by where your raised. Both Vargas and Oscar are American and aren't found. Same as Danny Garcia. Guys like LaPorte and Margo were raised there but born in mainland so they are counted
