Karl Place: The Manchester Mexican

He isn't of Mexican heritage, he is just a very big fan of Marco Antonio Barrera. So big in fact that he wears the Mexican colours when he fights.

haha, wow, that's a pretty big fan to be rocking the colors on your trunks. pretty cool i guess, has he ever been to mexico or met barrera? i know ashley sexton is a big fan as well.

every fighter wants to rep Mexico. There is also the younger kameda el Mexicanito.

Seems like a good fighter!! Throws good combinations.. If only PR's admired Mexican fighters like the Brittish, they would be so much better.. LMAO

gsp likes barrera too

[LeG00N]

I've noticed that too....the Brits tend to like Barrera alot..

I think there are great a few who are fans of MAB/Morales. I can't really think of many boxers who state Nas is their favourite, Kid Galahad is one of them though. Fights out of the same gym too so he's got that unorthodox fighting style, just lacks the power.

the manchester mexican i like that, james toney would also wear a mexican hat to his conferences...

when he would fight mexican fighters? Or just cuz.
