Are Philippines & Mexico the new rivalry in boxing?

I agree, with whoever mentioned that theres a bigger Rivalry within Mexico itself...example Mexico City vs fighters from other parts of Mexico like Tijuana....or bigger rivalry between mexican vs Mexican American fighters.....in not saying theres a strong rivalry there, but you can probably make a bigger case for that , than mexico vs philipines rivalry....34

 

The more equivalent rivalry would be between Thais - Filipinos,
PuertoRicans - Cubans, and between native Mexicans and these who live in US.

 

I still think the rivalry between PR n Mejico, has more passion n much more history.I would like to see PR in a world cup against Philippines though.

 

rivalry or not i think this is good for boxing. in boxing, Mexico is like the tried and tested veteran who have taken all new comers and have proven himself in the ring. while the Philippines is the new kid on the block still trying to prove its worth.

 

I haven't figure out how to Post Pix yet, once I do I'll post it. Don't take a lot, I'm really enjoying the fight, I drop the camera midway the Banal fight. Just used it after every rd.

 

particularly in the lower weights...healthy competition i should say!
