I don't see any problem with him saying that. Mexican style is a distinct style of boxing that can be adapted by any fighter. He's not claiming to be Mexican. He admires that style, he's not trying to win over Mexican fans. If anything, it's a compliment.
What are your thoughts on Golovkin's pandering to Mexicans

He should adopt a different Latin American nation that doesn't have a long boxing tradition. Say he has Peruvian, Guatemalian, or Paraguayan blood.Comment

Your boyfriend didn't mind wearing a sombrero and Mexican coloured trunks, that's also pandering to the Mexican communityComment

I honestly think ggg just likes, admires and respects the Mexican boxing tradition, it has gotten tothe point tho where im starting to view ggg more as a Mexican than an asian Kazakh.
Nothing wrong with that.Comment

Doesn't bother me at all but it's kind of fun in a cringeworthy way. I never noticed Mexican fans being bothered by it. Probably because he goes in to put the pressure on in most fights so it''s not an insult and they got their entertainment from him.Comment
