Anybody think Pac has lost 5 fights and JMM has only lost 1??

Because half of the people in latin america have spanish decent ? Are you kidding me !!!!! Are any of you aware of the large number of Japanese, Chinese, Portuguese, German, Lebanese and Jewish people in Latin America...... Then Filipinos are also Spanish or one could argue Chinese base on their cultural influence. Seems the majority of the people in here are unable to distinguish the difference between race and ethnicity.

Race is something you're born with an ethnicity is what your culture is. Like your race could be Chinese and your ethnicity could be American if you were born in America.

So how are Mexicans Spanish?

Let me educate you:

Mexican! Not Latino, Latinos are the white people of Latin America.
........... Not Hispanic, Hispanics are the people of Spain, European.

Mexicans are indigenous people! They are not white! So do not promote the cultural castration the their people!


To people of the USA, they are not foreigners to the land.


Mexican people of today are primarily a mixed blood and / or full blooded Indigenous people.

92% of the the so called Hispanics in Atzlan (the Southwestern USA) are people of Mexican descent. Not foreigners or minorities as generally labeled. They are also 71% of the so-called Hispanics/Latinos in the USA as a whole. So how wrong are you to call anyone in Latin America Spanish ? I say educate yourself before you make comments you know very little of and we are to believe you know anything about boxing?

Anyone of any color born in Mexico is viewed as a Mexican, ( This applies to most countries in Latin America) they are not race grouping individuals like people of the USA and their forefathers from Europe!

Study anthropology, you can't educate me on this. There are virtually no true north american natives left in mexico except in secluded groups. The indeginous population was almost totally eradicated in mexico and the carribean islands. I've taken up to 400 level meso-american anthropology courses.

As for the culture, there is no north american culture that has been more assimilated by European people than the Mexican culture. Their religion is European, they beliefs are European. Once again out of all the partially aboriginal people, how many still believe in the Aztec gods? Many have reclaimed their culture for financial purposes, but still the majority of mexicans are christians who abide by the bibles' laws.

I am not trying to say Mexican haven't developed their own culture, but its more tied into their spanish ancestry than it is into their Mayan or Aztec ancesty.

So because you've taken courses on it you know more about Mexico than Mexicans? WTF are you talking about anyway, you start off by making a statement that implies you discount anyones score because of their heritage. This further implies that an entire culture of people are unable to objectively score a fight. You further go on to say, it is impossible to go against your scoring beacause only your score is right. Would you deny there were enough swing rounds to give both fights to either fighter?

I know more about Mexicans than people that haven't studied it at all, and listen to folk tales from their parents. Who would know more about the history of Canada, me or somebody from Mexico who studied Canadian History? Obviously they would. I deny 115-112 for Marquez absolutely. I also deny that there were enough swing rounds in this fight, I think each round decisively indicated who won in this fight even though there were close rounds on both sides. Round 1 Pacquiao doubled the punches landed by Marquez, and sure Marquez had the one hardest punch, Pacquiao landed a punch almost as cleanly in return, plus multiple crosses to the body. The eleventh round was one of Pacquiao stronger rounds and people somehow give it to Marquez. And I've already stated that I was wrong stating what I did about only Mexican's thinking Marquez won, I was being brash and most people that did support Marquez winning had been Mexican. IMO its like saying most people that thought Calzaghe won against Hopkins are brits, is that such a racial travesty? Obviously I am overgeneralizing, but does not everyone do it on here? I say my scoring is right because I don't think anyone watches and rewatches fights as much as I do on here(except ICB). Also its not about I am only right, I am having a real debate where you are free to disprove through fact or evidence what I am saying. People on here seem to think I just say your stupid, I am right, your wrong. Thats not what I am doing, I debate these things and obviously in presenting an arguement you believe in, unless its educational, its beneficial to fully emerse yourself into your beliefs. If people actually broke down the fight, or more importantly key round in such a way that came across convincingly I would understand their logic. When people give Marquez 115-112 scorecard, where the fuck did that come from? How the hell did he win 4 more rounds than Pacquiao? This fight was like Hatton-Collazo it was a back and forth affair, not close every round. Pacquiao clearly won his rounds and Marquez clearly won his rounds. The closest thing I could see Marquez getting to a win is a draw in the second fight. IMO giving him both the 1st and 11th round is biased because he truly deserved neither of them.

The thing I was arguing about Mexican heritage is a completely different subject where people have no idea what they are talking about, are trying to educate me about what happened because thats their cultural background without the actual research into what happened.
