Comments Thread For: Indignation Over McGregor's 'Mexican' Remark is Mistaken

This is what America has come to. Pretty ****en sad!

I was born in the good old US of A. I am a USMC Veteran. Pops (also born American) served in Korea.

Our skin is brown does not make us any less American. We can trace our roots to Mexico (deep south Mexico and California when It was part of Mexico). When I was in my 20's JC Superstar made me proud of my heritage. I am a fan of Able Sanchez the trainer and have adopted GGG as a favorite son for his love and respect of the Mexican fight style.

When he hears the crowd booing it's like a matador in the ring. And I'm not calling his opponent a bull because if his opponent is Mexican or knows of the Mexican fight style it's time step it up.

How many times have we seen GGG step up the action (some times putting himself in harms way) to please the crowd.

No MEXICAN was offended by that comment from Conor. And I'm pretty sure Blacks weren't either.

Nobody cares about anyone's Americanism or their service to their country. That's your private business. This is an international forum. I bet most people here aren't even from the US. So that doesn't matter.

I wonder if people reading this would rather be Canelo or Margarito in a fight? Canelo is a Mexican with a total black style. Floyd was his biggest tutor!

*** Cheato!!! He should of been BANNED for life. That POS loaded his gloves. I can't STAND the ***. And was glad he practically lost his eye.

I think the leftist white people get more offended by a perceived stereotype than the group being stereotyped. This is why I can't stand the left just as much as I can't stand the right.

You get it. It's just White people being offended by what other White people say.

I was at Wal-Mart one time and me and this black guy were in line. Some White chick was saying some ****** sht. Me and the black guy looked at each other, shrugged our shoulders and laughed to ourselfs. Some other White chick was offended more then him or me and they started fighting right there...Both DUMB Biatches got arrested. I'm not going to jail because some fat nasty white chick says dumb sht! If that was the case I would be arrested all the time Usually the fatter and uglier they are the more obnoxious and disgusting as well.

You cannot insult Mexicans as they are Mexicans. Si?

Mexicans cannot be insulted-EVER. They are mexicans.

I didn't find it offensive but I thought it was kinda awkward. He should had explained why he said that like, "He finally fought aggressive. I made him fight like a Mexican" or something like that. Lol

I personally do not know anybody that got offended. First of all, you can tell a Mexican to go F his mother or whatever and wouldn't be offeneded... he would just knock your teeth out, probably. Jk. I don't know anybody that didn't take that comment as a compliment for Mexican Boxing, Mayweather could bebthe most skillful boxer but watching 2 Mexicans go at it is glorious!!! (Barrera- Morales, Vzquez-MArquez, etc) we might not have the best skills but they definitely make the most exciting fights... boxing without Mexicans the sport would truly be dead... so, unless you know someone personally that got offended by this I wouldn't believe it as much... Mexican style! Although more aggressive, May still could not achieve that level of reckless abandon a true Mexican fighter would. Whatever, nobody got offended...

[steeve steel]

Mayweather is as much Mexican as Trump is!

[ShoulderRoll]

Mexicans should stop being upset. It was meant as a compliment.

[nycsmooth]

Let It Go always trying to make something out of nothing Mexicans don't care it was praise...

GGG using Mexican style is the same exact shit
