Interesting take on canelo's immigration heritage. I'm sure you all know most of the folks in the Americas did indeed come from elsewhere.
Meet canelo, the Irish, French Mexican!!I found this article to have an interesting take.

I suppose Brazil, to some extent may also be included despite being colonized by Portugal, and Portuguese being their native tongue.
MOST of the people we label "Hispanic" have their ancestry based in Spain, and a small amount of Amerindian blood (whatever group of Indians was native to the lands that the White Spaniards conquered back in the 1400-1500's).
Some are full-blooded Amerindian, although this is pretty rare.
Some families are actually 100% European. Most are prolly like 60/40, or 75/25 European Spanish.
There are small amounts of other Southern (and even Northern) European ancestry as well.
Canelo is probably pretty close too being 100% White-Spaniard. Red-hair is found all around Northern Spain.
If Canelo took a DNA test, he'd most likely find out 90+% of his ancestry is White/European.
For all intents and purposely, racially, Canelo is just as White as your average American with heritage mainly from Northern European countries.
Yes - Canelo is a White man. DEAL WITH IT.Comment

"Hispanic" is not a racial group - it's just an ethnic label that is used to refer to people who come from Spanish-speaking countries in South, and Central America.

And it's a fact that plenty of people in these countries are 100% European heritage.
You can look at somebody and make an educated guess, based on history, of somebody's ancestry.
Canelo is a friggen red-headed, freckled specimen. His surname is Spanish.
Everything about him screams European.
DEAL WITH IT.Comment
