I was just pulling your leg, man. LOL There are a ton of great Puerto Rican fighters. I still admire the Mexican work ethic more, though.

El Terrible's right about the per capita champions, you know. And I have the Excel spreadsheet to prove it if you'd like to see it. Regarding the "Mexican work ethic", so you're an expert on this field are you. I'd like to know how you got to THAT conclusion.

Never said I was an "expert", Titofan. Just an old-school, boxing enthusiast.
As to my conclusion on the work ethic comment: I just feel that the Mexican boxing culture is the most superior in terms of history and what's expected from their fighters. I really can't think of any 'substantial' Mexican boxers that didn't break their arses in preparation for a bout. It seems to be ingrained in their blood and culture. I can't say the same thing about Puerto Rican fighters...well, some of them anyway.
Perhaps the tables are beginning to turn, though. I'm not sure. I don't fanatically follow any and all boxing matches like I used to when I was a kid. Guess I'm getting old.
I can say definitively and without reservation that American fighters - particularly Heavy-Weights - are a lazy lot of unmotivated bums. The Klitschko's just aren't that good, but they are the best the HW division has to offer, which is actually pretty sad.
