Danny "Swift" Garcia vs Lucas "The Machine" Matthysse
- Thread starter Johnny Truelove
- Start date
I think Garcia's chin hasn't really been tested but Judah is usually only good for 6 rounds or less, hurt Danny late in that fight. Khan was murkin him early but obviously got snook. There were plenty of times where a fresher Erik Morales would've probably beat Danny in the first fight. It's just really hard to see Danny winning here. If he stays behind the jab and uses range, I give him a decent shot. He has a great jab when he uses it. His left hook is lethal and I think it could honestly knock anyone out at any time. So it's not that he doesn't have a chance, I just don't see him winning here.
As far as Puerto Ricans, in my experience those dudes play the convenient thing with race a lot, but most of my experiences with them were in NY. I prided myself on not being racist, but I grew to hate most of those douchebags out there and it mostly stemmed from their elitist attitude towards Mexicans. I am half Mexican and I would get asked if I was Puerto Rican all the time over there. If they found out I was Mexican, the conversation stopped usually pretty abruptly. That honestly had to have happened like 50+ times in a 3 year span if not more. Plus, those fools would talk crap about the U.S. and say that Puerto Rico was so much better etc... My answer was always, Puerto Rico would sink if the U.S. weren't keeping them afloat financially and you get a free pass on citizenship if you're born there, you have not a motha****in thing to complain about. So now I'm like f Puerto Rico lol jk. Having said all that, I've had a bunch of Puerto Rican friends and there's no love loss. They clown me about being Mexican and I clown right back. I don't hate all Puerto Ricans but NewYoricans are collectively kinda annoying.

Thats why I love Hopkins for snatching the Puerto Rican flag out of Don King's hand and throwing it on the ground in front of Trinidad and thousands of Puerto Ricans while IN Puerto Rico haha. Absolutely legendary moment in boxing.
Throwing down the flag:
B-hop checking "Pedro" on hot 97, start at 4:15 haha

That was absolutely crazy of Bhop to do man. They wanted to kill him for that.
For what it's worth, watching Tito at MSG was a dope experience and one of the best days of my life. That crowd was live that night

That's what he wanted - everyone to hate him and as a result every Puerto Rican tuned in to watch Tito KO Hopkins only for Hopkins to destroy his career.
He also gave a bag of beans and rice to Papi Trinidad at a presser lmao. Told him he would have to save his son by throwing in the towel (which of course happened ).
So much crazy back story to this fight. If HBO ever does "Legendary nights" again this should be one of the top episodes.

The Executioner would humiliate Trinidad again, this time as he announced to the media that he had brought Trinidad’s “last meal.” Boldly, Hopkins strolled over to Trinidad’s seat on the dais and without any regard of any possible consequences, dropped him some bags of rice and beans. It was another confrontational act that drew angry shouts from the Puerto Ricans in the audience. But there was no reaction from Trinidad. Again Trinidad just sat there blankly, not knowing what to do. Whenever Hopkins challenged his manhood, Trinidad never could come up with any sort of counter.
"Just like any other execution, you're entitled to your last meal," Hopkins said. "I asked my Spanish friends back in Philadelphia what they like to eat."
With that, Hopkins tossed plastic bags of rice and beans in Trinidad's direction. Hopkins also drew his finger across his neck in a slashing motion.

yea pretty much we call any race that has a mixture of black blood "mayates" lol it ain't right but it ain't wrong. that's why we don't like being called "Latinos" because you place us with a bunch of other races that are completely different. ricans, cubans & dominican's have alot more in common and act very similar. I think us mexicans only really relate to columbians lol
You do realize that there are Mexicans that are of African decent too, right? Hell, there are even Mexicans of Asian decent. I know cause a couple of them went to my high school, along with a blonde haired blue eyed, white Mexican chick from Mexico City. Mexican is not a race, its a nationality. Just like there is no American race.

I called you a Chino Cochino! JK! Most mexicans go by nationality not race. I'm first generation born in San Diego yet I'm not mexican according to all the haters from TJ that wish they can be here. Others tho do view it as race cuz alot of northern mexicans have native blood in them, not like canelo! jk again. mexicans tho are the most predjudice people I've ever met in my life tho. thats why we started gangbangin too
