    Do you find it awkward?

    Does any of it actually help sell PPVs?
    Its fine. He likes the Mexican culture and vibe. A lot of people do.

      how funny would it be if he were a slick fighter that danced around the ring instead of throwing punches. Would he say he has "African" style and blood? Hahahaaaa

      Edit: I should say "African American" style.. African fighters are tough mf'ers who do come forward and trade shots.

        It's really nothing. Just part of "the drama show." No big deal. Just everyone enjoy the fight

          He's being smart.
          He knows Mexicans constitute a huge percentage of the boxing fan base, and if he has their support he can continue to have economic success after this fight.

            Mexicans love GGG. Before his rivalry with Canelo his fans were majority Mexican.

            Guy is ex-soviet. All he wants to talk about is fighting. Not personal stuff. By Mexican he means his fighting style/spirit, nothing more

              It's the most cringeworthy thing in the sport right now.

                Golovkin has become a gimmick. HBO has been trying hard to sell him but it's really awkward.

                If he beat Canelo it won't be as impactful to his career as it will be if Canelo wins.
