    Yeah, I just misspoke I guess. To be honest, I don't know if mexicans call other mexicans with Ryan or Oscar's complexion white or light skin because for sure, Vergil is not being called either. One thing I do know is that colorism does exist in Mexico.
    "Guero" or "Guera" is a common nickname throughout Mexico it means blonde or light skinned. While I lived in Argentina my ex-girlfriend's family called her "Negra" which is basically calling her black lol but she had tan skin she wasn't even dark she was dark compared to all the fair skinned Argentinians though.

        Ryan Garcia has a huge ego but he is also very gullible and impressionable as a young man. His lawyer Lupe Valencia is likely responsible for the dilemma Ryan finds himself in. He's been receiving bad advice.

        There won't be any fans in attendance, there will be extra costs associated with Covid 19 testing. You are not a world champion... 200k$ is more than fair.

        Lack of activity will end up costing him much more than a few extra hundred thousand. Especially if Golden Boy pivots to making Vergil Ortiz their new poster boy.
        You would think its simple math.

          While I think that Ryan Garcia has an over-inflated ego, he does have talent and star power. Oscar must be out of his mind to pick a public fight at all. He is supposed to be the adult in this situation. This makes it all but impossible for Golden Boy to keep Ryan in his stable beyond this contract. I am really disappointed in De La Hoya's immaturity and ******ity.
          Oscar was the adult last time. He's probably had enough of this entitled brat. Oscars been in the game for decades. He's not gonna let some little spoiled brat push him around.

            That'd be one more obstacle out the way to make a Tank fight.

              They may have built him but he said himself that GB wasnt paying him. Who are we to contest that statement?

                And as for Jermall Charlo, when is your next fight? When is any pbc next fight? September? October?

                Jermall Charlo. Still calling himself the future of boxing. At age 30. Yeah right. How about fighting someone real at 160 pu$$yy?
                Maybe he's using the GGG blueprint

                  This is a dumb business move by De La Hoya. He should have handled it privately. In competing for future talent, his competitors will point out this latest gaffe and add it to his many flaws. Besides, a public spat with your own fighter is bush league. De La Hoya is a bit unhinged these days.

                      It' was Garcia that was all on Twitter complaining last time and Oscar caved just to make him happy. At some point you have to say enough is enough.
