Saludos desde Guadalajara Mexico para todos mis compatriotas y la gente bonita que vive en Estados Unidos hehehe.

I spent some time on California during my high school years. What I like about some people in the US is that some have this big sense of nationalism for the country of their herritage that many people here in Mexico don't have. On the other hand, there are some people I met who hardly speak spanish and some just straight out told me they don't speak it. Aunque se les vea un nopalote en la cabeza.

De cualquier manera yo respeto a toda mi gente mexicana y de origen mexicano. En el boxeo me siento un poco incomodo cuando usan ambas banderas pero cada quien tiene su gusto.

I don't think there was any real beef going on in the other thread. Just a few misunderstandings.

Besides, Raba only wanted to know if there were any Mexicans on here from Mexico.

There's nothing racist about that. That's like asking how Many of y'all live in CA, TX,.....?

Yeah that's how the thread started.....but then it started to go somewhere that wan't cool...talkin bout "they" and "us"....when there isn't "they" and "us"...its WE.........that's all im sayin......I sensed the convo heading that way and I wanted to nip it in the bud right there and then......

What's the problem? if a boxer is Mexican-American (born in the US to Mexican parents) he should represent both countries in my opinion .

Agreed.....and I think he agrees too..........he said each person has their preference......

Just to make it clear, I don't see a problem with it. If a dude was born in the US he has every right to use both flags if he so desires. It's just that I personally have mixed feeling towards the country, it's greatness has not been beneficial for my country Mexico. But I digress.

Si se sienten bien usando ambas banderas y les nace el nacionalismo por ambos paises, es perfectamente comprensible.
