Comments Thread For: Miguel Cotto Receives “Athlete of the Year” Award

so Carmelo Anthony is being claimed as PRican?

oh dear

Hes half Puerto Rican and Half black. And his wife is full Puerto Rican as well. Melo recognizes that side of his heritage so there is nothing wrong with Puerto Ricans claiming him.

Well I guess it cant be too hard to get an award as a pro athlete if the population is only 3.5 million.

People **** on stuff like cricket all the time because its not played by everyone, well, same here.
What makes football any different? That the game is played here, in the good, old everything revolves around me USA?
International Competition>National Competition
You can't be the best while playing against yourselves.

Bruh I know what Cricket is... not a difficult sport actually... now when you talk about american football with all those x's and o's offensive gameplanning, defensive game planning, special teams game planning, strength and conditioning, 2 or 3 a days practice 5 times a week, watching film study... theres lots to learn and digest of football.

And when did I say anything to the fact, "good old everything revolves around me usa"??? If you wanna talk politics and stuff like that I have no problem with that you can PM me and we can talk that.

You ******s realize it's "Athlete Of The Year", right? Why would Roberto Clemente win "Athlete Of The Year" in 2015?

The bolded are the only active Puerto Rican athletes that I know of.

that was in response to another poster saying something to the sort that PR doesnt have many athletes "internationally" something along those lines... stay in your lane.

like your boy wrapidad after he got caught with those illegal handwraps his career looked like s hit .....

hhmmm never got suspended or in trouble... is actually in the international boxing hall of fame.

He wanted a rematch with Hopkins but hopkins and his team refused. Thats why he fought that one guy in PR and just waited instead of keep on fighting... then he came back fought mayorga and fought winky.... he didn't fight no scrubs when he came back off of that long layoff... then another long layoff and comes back to fight RJJ at 175

Why are people pretending like Cotto is?

[Syf]

Oh, you crazy Americans and you over-inflated sense of importance of your national games..

You were asking about Ricans in sports. You know PR is officially U.S. Territory right? Where else would Ricans go in sports but to established US sports? That's where the money is for them. Lol @you

Past prime Cotto beat past prime Martinez, seems like a fair fight to me.
