In NY he did claim it as part of his heritage and speaks very fluent Spanish (his dad's name is Martinez Jackson). In fact he curses in Spanish almost about as well as I do! when he played at Yankee Stadium a group of Boricuas raised the Puerto Rican flag whenever he played. He often gave the thumbs up and shouted back ''Boricua''. I was there and saw it more than enough times.
