    Dont get all butt hurt again on me Bodhi:patsch IF Abraham learned how to box there than fine you can claim him, but he is still born an Armenian.

    Question do you consider Palomino a Mexican or an American fighter?

    I never said he wasn't born in Armenia. And even so he is German now, he will be Armenian also. It's part of his identity.

    I don't know what citizenship he had nor do I know what he considered himself. I know both about Abraham ;)

    I would be a better American than you since I know your constitution better it seems :lol:

    He can't but I wonder if this part will be changed in the future so that he can be president. But remember what happened the last time when an Austrian had that much power before you vote then.

    Palomino could go either way, like Abraham.

    Palomino was born in Mexico came to US as a child(i believe 8 or 9) went into the service in the Vietnam Era and learned to box in the Army. I consider him Mexican American but technichally he is both a Mexican National and an American citizen.

    Same with the Ruelas bros, Liberado Andrade and Ornelas, Abner Mares,Panchito Bojado. Margarito was born in the US raised in Mexico but lives here in fact he lives in the same city as i do.

    Actually Hitler became German citizen, he wouldn' be allowed to compete in the election if he wouldn't have been. The man who did this must have had a bad conscience for the rest of his life :lol:
    There's a joke in Germany that the greatest feat Austria ever achieved was making the world believe Hitler was German and Beethoven Austrian. :D

    Vanes Martryoysian is from the LA area and represented the US in the Olympics, but i think he was born in Armenia. Calling kirakasayan world class is kind of reaching.

    No, he can't, not without a constitutional amendment.

    If they amend the constitution to allow foreign born presidents, I also want them to amend it to abolish term limits. That way we can have Ahnuld versus Slick Willy. The Terminator vs. the Sperminator.

    They're bitter cuz their county doesn't produce ****.

    The Klitschko's are proud Ukrainians, Vitali is a ****ing politician in Ukraine for **** sakes. Fought their entire Amateur careers for Ukraine & won a gold for them.

    Agree, the Klitschkos obviously arent

    Abraham, Huck, Steiglitz are both

    Sturm should be considered German unless he himself states otherwise.

    Good list
