    in the social sense, race is a reality, in the scientific sense, it is not.

    Southpaw is right. . .

    "Latino" is not a race. . . "Argentinean is not a race" "Mexican is not a race."

    There are black latinos, mexicans, cubans, brazilians. .

    There are white latinos, mexicans, cubans, brazilians. .

    Then there are mestizos - mix of amerindians (the natives of whatever latino country before the whites conquered). . or mix of european, black, and amerindian (lot of this in brazil).

    Sergio Martinez looks white to me . . . Maybe a distant mix of "amerindian."

    But whatever. . . It's not important. . .

    I don't think skin colorr has anything to do with it and Sergio is not white. He is one of the best athletes in the sport regardless to his skin color or what country he hails from.

    listen, you arent the end all be all on race. the fact that so many people have contrasting opinions in this thread does nothing but lend to the erratic changeability of racial identification. there is no across the board understanding of racial identity, and for anyone to believe that he has mostly european blood based on his looks alone is preposterous. skin color is not the sole determining factor in someone's origin, and every other potential factor in the form of physical traits is unreliable due to a wide range of variations that undoubtedly exist, in small or high number, across races. "pure race" huh?:yep

    This would be like saying Breidis Prescott is not black. . .

    He is black latino. . Black columbian. . .




    Same wtih Canelo, and Chavez Jr. . . They are Mexican, and "latino," but they are clearly white.

    where does the term caucasian come from ?
    caucasians descend from asian.asian descend from negro .

    migration blends the three into different breeds of people all over the planet.

    Liberal hippy logic...

    Watch the Olympics next month, how much you want to bet that a west African descendant will win the sprinting events, an east African descendant will win he marathon events, and an eastern European descendant will win the weight living events.

    Oh but now I'm 'borderline racist' for speaking the truth?
