      I thought when Floyd did it years ago it was done in jest to piss off Mexican fans. I think Tank copying the move was in poor taste given the climate the country is in. Even if Tank was just doing it to agitate fans, he had to know many would be offended in this climate.

      IMO he should've tried to find a less offensive way to agitate fans.

        Black privilege allows blacks to mock other cultures. Blacks are protected by media. Just like the big black NBA guy Montrezl Harrison called Luca Doncic a ***** a55 white boy and the anti white pro black media protected him. Black privilege on display.

          Its cringy...in the same way that colby covington saying that Usman had his tribe sending up smoke signals....Tank prob wore it cuz Mayweather told him to...Mayweather can say he wore it cuz it was a Mexican Holiday vs De La Hoya...but in reality his Uncle used to call himself the Mexican Assassin so Its all Troll material...I think it's WWE type corny. Welcome to America

            As a Brit I think people must be very insecure about their culture if it offends you if someone wears your flag on their shorts and sports a popular hat worn in Mexico.

            If Gervanta Davis fights a Brit next I would have zero issues with him rocking the Union Jack and wearing a flat cap.

                I am a non-black Latino. My answer as a boxing observer is to just look at your post. That's the reaction he wants.

                    Some blacks might have been outraged if the sombrero were on the other cabeza but I think/hope they are a minority within a minority. There was not a think wrong with Tank donning the Mexican colors . Nobody was being mocked or disrespected, to the contrary.
