    Yes he’s American which is a nationality but his race is African and who knows what else.

    Just like Delahoya is American but of Mexican decent.

    Get it?

      Hoya has mexican parents. Hoya has Mexican family members directly from Mexico. Of course he is gonna wave the Mexican flag. Davis is not african. He doesn't ugandian parents Rwandan parents sudanese parents. So why would he rep the nationally of a place thats not his? Because he is black? In that case miguel cotto need to rep africa and wave the Congolese flag, gamboa, trinidad, Benitez, seriously What are u talking about bro. 🤣🤣

          It's definitely not meant to disrespect them, it's meant to really catch their attention as the Mexican fan base is the biggest fan base in north America. For some it's it's antagonistic, for others it's respectful, for other it's disrespectful, bottom line is that it creates controversy and that's always good for ppv sales.

            Exactly.

            What is disrespectful is when Black people refer to everybody as Mexican despite many being Salvadoran, Honduran, Colombian etc.

              Wearing a flag of your opponents nationality is hardly offensive my god.

              If wilder wore the Union Jack I couldn’t give a damn. people are too sensitive

                    It's up to interpretation, and how you take it. It's hard to truly know the unspoken intent of others. If the people that do it say it's to pay homage, than that's probably the best way to interpret it.

                    Didn't Shane Mosley do it too?
