Mexico vs Puerto Rico... The Significant Fights

[El Chicano]

Dude shut the hell up.

I watched Cotto get stopped by Margarito, Trinidad get completely out boxed by Winky, Diaz beat up Cotto's little Brother, DLH stop Camacho, and Corrales rip on Manfredy in the same day.

Deal with it.

Quit the PuertoRicanism.

Calderon quit vs Segura and Tito totally outclassed by Oscar...

Funny you don't say **** about the ****** that starts the ****.

First off Cotto's doesn't have a younger brother and DLH never stopped Camacho.

What's funny to me is that you ******s call people out on nationalism when mexicans are by far the most nationalistic. I don't give a **** about this but when people push I'm going to push back, so deal with it.

Jose Cotto sucks to the extent that he should be Miguels younger brother. And the only reason Camacho didn't get stopped is cuz he ran like a little... well you know, same thing Cotto and Calderon did in their biggest fights against Aztec Warriors.

Camacho(past his prime) lost to Chavez, but knocked out Bazooka Limon and schooled Jose Luis Ramirez. I think it evens out.

Bottom line: NO Puerto Rican EVER wants to be born Mexican. ****, I'd rather be Hector or Tito any day than to be a whiny ***** excuse making "warrior" with a shoulder injury.

And the Tito vs Oscar fight I saw had one guy running like a nervous rabbit for the last 4 rounds. Looked outright ridiculous.

How are we pretending Oscar did not wear fishnets?

How are we pretending Vargas did not use Steroids?

How are we pretending Margarito did not use Plaster wraps??

How are we Pretending that Chavez did not get knocked the **** out by Tzu and humiliated by Randall?? Spare a loss by Richard Steele against Taylor?

Come on now Kids...

This fight does not get added to the list of significant fights based on the circumstances... The injury taints this victory.

I don't think many people know me here, but I think I can safely say I'm one of the more objective posters on this site, despite what my username says.

I don't carry any hostility with anybody whatsoever and take things with a grain of salt. I love talking with all of you, and I can laugh at the "Puerto Ricans taking knees" jokes and whatever, I love boxingscene...what can I say?

But, Manny...that is dumb. Márquez opted to go ahead with the fight despite his injury. He knew this could happen. It happened, he took the risk, he gambled, he lost.

Ask yourself this (and be objective). Had López pulled out after the eighth, would you be saying: "This fight does not get added to the list of significant fights based on the circumstances... The injury taints this victory."

I don't think so. No way. But hey, its' your list. Whatever...
