    With Mexico 99.9% of the time.

    Except when it comes to Cotto.

    The only other time would probably be Calderon in his losses.

    Depends on the boxers really.

    But I've always been a fan of Cotto.

    With so much pride involved, its only natural for things to get out of hand and personal at times. That is why I wanted to hear opinions from unbiased boxing fans.

    Personally, I try not to get to invested in naming calling and race bashing. But I might slip every now and than. :yep

    Completely different culture though. Hard to relate, don't you think?

    Lol I'm not a particular fan of Cuban boxers, but most of their best boxers are stuck as amateurs because their country won't let them become professional. The few who have defected have proven very good.

    Idk, if the slaves at my plantation were playing football against the slaves of a different Lord, I know i'd be rooting for my slaves. They're mine, after all. If they lose, then a part me is losing

    Maybe not the best example, but you get the idea.
