Dan Rafael: Mexican fans in LA told me they want GGG to beat Canelo

[_original_]

I was at the fight in LA. Even I noticed a lot of the Mexicans there (and there was a lot) were GGG fans.


Of course, that doesn't mean Mexicans in general will support him over Canelo. Hell no, they won't. The ones in Mexico will cheer on GGG for the vast majority, easily.

Well. Mexicans/Chicanos are the biggest boxing fan group in the sport, there's gonna be a lot of us rooting for different fighters of different nationalities/races. Hell, me and most of my boys are Mayweather hardcore fans and we were all split 50-50 at a Maywether-Canelo fight party. Even my uncle who doesn't speak English bet big on Mayweather and was saying Canelo is a joke lol.

How many Kazakh fans you think would root for Canelo to beat GGG?

You are one desperate ****** though.

Golovkin is mocked in Kazakhstan for ducking Ward.

Mexicans saying it is a big thing .mexicans will root for the mexican 99% of the time. My family loves pacquiao we would root for him until he faced a mexican fighter at which point he became the enemy. In my circle and people in and around it people are waiting for canelo to get his ass beat by ggg something ive never seen in my life time . Golovkin transcends the nationality barrier imo

The vast majority of Mexican boxing fans would be viewed as "casual" compared to people on here. Most don't hate him because of who he fights, they're still pissed he blew it big time against "el pinche negro correlon" not to mention he's seen as a pretty boy like DLH.

I've seen a number of Mexican fans wearing TMT shirts and hats at various press conferences at the Staples Center over the last few years. Maybe that would impress Dan as well. He probably thinks they should all be wearing sombreros and tassel rugs.

Fat Dan is making shyt up. They were probably Salvadorans or people from Nicaragua. Those people hate Mexicans 'cause Mexican ese's make them pay taxes in L.A.

No real Mexican would root for an Asian.

plenty of latinos rooted for manny.

but isnt that how it works on here? if you're a fan of manny then your automatically a pinoy. i'll be a billionaire by now if i was given a quarter everytime i get accuse of being a pinoy on here just because i root for the pacster.

The irony is big dunn is the same guy who used to accuse others of being filipino if they defend pac over floyd, he gave me neg rep before saying i was a biased filipino, and its funny because i criticize pretty much every fighter, i even defended floyd over the gold digger girl and got blasted hard in my neg reps by floyd haters telling me i was a floymo

stop lying. I sigged your "black power *****" garbage and you got banned. Ever since you've been pissed off and doing crap like this. I called you a biased Manny fan, not a Filipino, for that garbage "ALgieiri is a tough style matchup" before the Manny fight.
