The biggest problem American fighters face isn't American fight fans having divided loyalties, it's lack of interest in the sport among the general public period, especially on a ppv level. Floyd, Pac and GGG's ppv buying base actually consisted primarily of Mexicans/Latinos. So the key to ppv success is either tapping into the Mexican/Latino fanbase or figuring out a way to promote yourself to the American general public, but that isn't an easy task given all the competition from top athletes in far more popular sports. Keep in mind, most fighters don't become ppv attractions overnight, it typically takes years of work and high profile fights.

I've never seen the full Octavio Gomez fight just the highlights of about 5 minutes. I explain in that piece why there's such limited full fights available of him. I recently uploaded the full fight with Jose Legra on youtube where he came out of retirement and won the featherweight title at 37 and there full fights with Jose Medel (first) and both Harada fights are out there. I have highlights of a further 21.
I remember I bought the International Boxing hall of fame register about 18-19 years ago and since got a newer edition and that introduced me to a lot of old fighters with snippets and from there you can research the one's who catch your eye.
My personal favorites from the pre 1990s are Jofre, Sal Sanchez, Luis Rodriguez, Jose Napoles, Ruben Olivares, Carlos Ortiz, Wilfredo Gomez, Marvin Hagler, Matthew Saad Muhammad, Gilberto Roman, Alexis Arguello, Ken Buchanan and there’s so many more. The more you research and look for fights the more and more excellent fights and fighters you find out about. I’m a big fan of the 50s, 60s and 70s particularly bantamweight and Featherweight.

I seen his fight with Octavio Gomez but I want to see some of his earlier fights.
boxing was definitely totally different in the 50s-80s. These guys were the definition of warriors. I’ve been more attached to historical boxing lately. I mean I find myself spending hours doing research and looking at films of fighters I’ve never heard of and I’ve fell in love with fights that are in black and white. Weird huh?
I think you are the one who posted something about Emille Griffith I’d heard his name before but didn’t research until you mentioned something interesting about him. I forgot what it was, this was a while back you probably don’t even remember. You should actually start your own blog/website with your knowledge.Last edited by chrisJS; 11-14-2018, 02:43 PM.

am I missing something? is there something wrong with what he said?
People who support other people based on Race etc is cool the only time it becomes an issue is when SNOWFLAKES cant handle it and cry over it.
I get attacked almost everyday here cause I'm Mexican, "oh your mexicans thats why you dont liek this fighters" when in reality me being Mexican has absolutely no reason why I dislike xyz fighter but to the SNOWFLAKES thats the only logical reason their lil brains can think of so they get offended over this entire notion that isnt reality but just a narrative they painted of me by themselves in their own mind so basically they get theyselves mad and want to blame me for it lmfao. Idiots.Last edited by .!WAR MIKEY!.; 11-14-2018, 02:39 PM.

No they don't idiot, Mexicans hate Oscar.
Yes, explain, you're making these accusations like they're truths, well explain them.
I form way better sentences than that illiterate woman beating thug.
OK welfare is irrelevant, dindus then, that describe you people better?
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.43e1859f4e96
Nearly 40%(38.5) of TANF benefits goes to Hispanics.
You shouldn’t be talking about poor people with welfare anyway. You should be glad this country is in the position to help poor people who are in unfortunate situations. I don’t see why that would even be a joke to you. You should never look down on any race. No race is superior to the other. Educate yourself my brotha before it’s too late.Last edited by THEFRESHBRAWLER; 11-14-2018, 04:06 PM.

I had canelo beating GGG he did.
I picked benevidez to beat Crawford and he held his own,
I pick Mikey to beat Errol spence.
I pick Mikey to beat Lomachenko
those are my most recent predictions, and none of them are delusional.
I tell you the issue people have with me is not really ME, its THEM. They for some reason get mad over it, they bring up the Mexican aspect of it, they call my picks delusional, they only quote me not to talk boxing but to bash my predictions, my opinions and write them off cause I am Mexican lol thats why when they bash me I never take it seriously I ignore most of them cause I already know what the issue is they just havent realized it themselves cause they too emotional to open their eyes and acknowledge their own Bullshit.Last edited by .!WAR MIKEY!.; 11-14-2018, 03:44 PM.
