Who Are Mexicans Rooting For? Chavez or Canelo?

[iamboxing]

One's a PPV star but the other is the son of a Mexican legend. I've heard Mexicans speak disparagingly of Canelo and, despite his status, he doesn't seem to have that die-hard fanbase Mexican fighters have had in the past.

Both. This is their America vs Chivas in a boxing ring

Mexicans are rooting for the fight. As Nelo, Chaves Jr. , Sr. all the hosts at ESPN Deportes (including Marquez) consistently say it a fight for Mexican fans. Pride. If Gatti vs Ward can be justified 3 times there's no reason why this couldn't as well.

If it's as action packed as Gatti-Ward

75 % of the people are with chavez, Canelo is the mexican Floyd, everybody hates him but they all see their fights anyways

I don't care who wins, I'm a fan of both.

Cashnelo & Triple C (Cash Cow Chavez) all day, baby.
