    There are people in Scotland, Ireland and the north of England who can't get a tan. They have 2 choices .. white or blistered. Canelo comes from the same genetic stock.

        Technically you can call GGG Asian I guess. Both of these dudes are on the 'Caucasian' side of things.

        Canelo is a red head. He's literally the same genetic makeup of any red head. He just can fight.

            I don't know. I think they are both great fighters and along with Spence they are my top favorites. I always root for both of them to win in style. When they fight each other I root for GGG because he is much older and the long time champion. Unfortunately for him he lost a close fight in Canelo country but I thought he won by a point or two. I think they will both continue to kick ass on whoever shares a ring with them. Canelo obviously has lots of white, most likely Spanish blood in him from his red haired mother. GGG is part Korean.

              There is no way for us to know for sure. Since Spain conquered Mexico and occupied Mexico for a couple of hundred years or so it seems much more likely his white blood comes from Spain than the UK.

                Is an albino African now considered Caucasian? I think some of you are confused asf. A Mexican and a mixed Asian are not Caucasian lol. The Klan would not accept either of them. They definitely root for the mixed Asian on NSB though.

                    Look at that massive snake.
                    I can barely tell that is Oscar in the back. You have some great eyes to notice the massive snake way back there.

                      This whole topic is really dumb. That said is Canelo not of European descent? I would venture to say that appears to be the case. Outside the pure indigenous population most Mexicans have European ancestry. Some more than others.

                      I really couldn't care less what it means in the ring, because it means nothing. Canelo is a Mexican (Messi is an Argentinian, I hear this same silly stuff pulled with him). Ethnically I am not sure what his background is, nor do I really care that much.
