I think JMM limits his opinions to other Mexicans.
Although Mexico and my home of Puerto Rico have always had one of the best rivalries in boxing... and I always root for my home fighter... I've learned to admire (and be a fan of) Mexican warriors in the past. Warriors who exemplified what it is to fight ANYBODY, ANYWHERE, ANYTIME. Diva clauses be damned. If they lose a championship fight... so what. They come back stronger for the next fight and learn from their mistakes.
Canelo is none of that. I've ALWAYS criticized and disliked him for that... and it's heartening to see a fellow Mexican do it also.
throughout every era, fighters will get criticized. there are some that claim juan ducked naseem & a career high payday when offered. end of the day juan, like canelo has fought against some of the best fighters of their time
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
