    So you're saying Nonito is really 5'7? They are really advertising his real height?

    Maybe I should have qualified it more. I'm not saying necessarily a pro athlete. A guy with a Joe job that also is active in an organized league of some sort. I just notice that this makes a lot of white guys think they are Tom Brady while the other two creeds tend not to get as full of themselves. Perhaps it's because whites tend to value individualism more rather than be part of a group. Just throwing out ideas.

    i think it's the other way around...they advertise smaller on boxers, mainly to get'em fights when they're barely building their career.......i have pics with oscar and mosley, and they look huge next to me but are listed at 5'9 if i'm not mistaken...

    Its all good. I was hooting and hollering every jab jones landed. I also talked to some flips and they taught me how to say donaire is gonna knock him out in tegala. I got a few mean mugs but noone wanted any......tried my best to stir the pot. Even told some mexicans that my boy Rodrigo could whup canelo right now. They said no mames......i just dont think they knew what they were looking at.
