You hate because you are a hater plain & simple. The most popular / celebrated Mexican boxers are all white ... fact.
where you from homie? i assume american like myself, but what ethnic background do you identify with? after all we are a country of immigrants.
Without getting too specific. I'm from the deep south U.S. I'm Native American by Elizabeth Warren standards. ba-dump-chhhh (I'll be here all week. Tip your waitresses) But Seriously. If I were still college age today, I would qualify for Native American scholarship, but I'm pretty much a white guy. My great grandmother was full blood Osage. Rest of my ancestry is western European. Why?
Canelo is the biggest draw and it’s not even close. Joshua can fight wilder, fury, well he can fight jesus christ and still will not reach 1.3 mil ppv’s @ $90 per ppv , not $15
Well I too am mixed ... with Indian (meztizo) & Spaniard blood, which is what is known as Mexican. I was born here but my origins are from Mexico. you like myself are a product of ****, mixed with Indian blood. Mexico has little consideration for it’s indigenous people (much like the states actually) but it’s worse in Mexico, thats why most of the celebrities have fair skin &/or light colored eyes the more European you look the better your treated (also similar to the states). No one wants to appear as the conquered people aka “Slave”. So as popularity celebrity status goes ... in historical chronological order. Salvador Sanchez Julio Cesar Chavez Canelo Then Juan Manuel Marquez Marco Antonio Barrera Erik morales Seeing a pattern yet?
Mikey Garcia, like all Americans with Mexican blood, are not real Mexicans (at all) and will never be loved by Mexican boxing fans. Oddly, they will also never be loved by other Americans of Mexican blood. This is due to Mexicans being simple tribal people at heart. They will boo their own "Mexican American" countrymen in favor of genuine Mexicans. This is evident at any soccer tournament as they wrap themselves in Mexican flags, yet many of them speak rudimentary Spanish. Oscar De La Hoya embraced his American identity. He won gold for the USA, played to his beautiful looks, and took great pride is chopping down and abusing a Mexican hero in Julio Caesar Chavez. Thus he was loved here in America and was the first genuine PPV star. Mikey, like many, Americans of Mexican blood, is caught in a purgatory of marketing. He would have been far better off being born in Mexico.
Nope. Arguing that JCC and Salvador Sanchez are heralded because of the skin color is a huge insult to what they achieved in the ring. You're cherry picking two of the greatest fighters of all time, and you're acting like everyone just dismisses the other three as garbage. It's nonsense. 89-0, 44-1 and being two of the greatest fighters to ever live is why JCC and SS are so heralded and celebrated. The other three are all guys from the same era. All three achieved a great level of fame and will be HOFers. But did not rise to GOAT conversation status like the other two did. That's the obvious flaw in your argument. Canelo? He has come up in an era when hype plays almost as big a role in fame as achievement, but I still say the evidence that it's skin-color based is scant at best.
I do believe in Spence having top notch skills and being a very good fighter. I really do. However, you guys are rating him to the moon and back. Just a little too much for me. And I'll continue to point it out. Beating Mikey does go a long way, even if Mikey is the "small guy" moving up.
Your problem here is that Sanchez and Chavez are indeed on a different level of deserved celebration than the other three you listed.
