I'm Puerto Rican and I'm rooting for Frampton but not because Leo is Mexican. It's because Leo has spent yrs ducking his most meaningful challenge in rigo and has instead fought several low level opponents. I miss the days when Mexicans like Erik morales and Barrera fought all comers, including each other.
This guy is not too bright! I'm MexiCAN and root for Trinidad, Cotto, and now Felix...As long as they're not boxing Mexican fighters of course. Mexicans fighters vs. Puerto Ricans is more than just two boxers. It's a HUGE rivalry but with Honor and dignity. When the fight is over we always congratulate he other and root for each other. PR's have HEART and a LOT of PRIDE!!
Good post, which I also agree. I am puertorican and rooting for Santa Cruz. He will be dropped and SC will finish what Quigg couldnt.
He precipitates himself. All Framp has to do, to get some Puerto Rican fans and Mexicans too, is KO Santa Cruz, eliminate him as a bragging chip. In NY, in front of a bunch of Puerto Ricans. Turn around and KO a Puerto Rican too, run the gauntlet. They won't exactly love you, but they'll sure watch and follow you, like Salido for example.
