"You not real mexican. You California guy"

[welcometohavoc]

That was brutal!!!

Khabib is in Tony's mind now.
Right, sherdog?
Timestamped

lol imagine if Tony had questioned Khabib's heritage or religion, he and his posse of goat fuckers would have ambushed Tony in a hallway somewhere

 

[HHJ]

Haha, fucking Golota.

No one talks about him, but he is the craziest motherfucker in the game. And he was en route to being the first white champ in 40 years. Couldn’t stop punching balls. Not even for three minutes.

I see balls, I punch them.

I think he just had some serious Self Sabaotage issues. He wasnt doin that in his other fights.

He had talent,you wanted to see him do better,but hes kinda fucked up.

He was arrested for impersonating a cop, because he was given an honarary badge for Jersey, I think.

Dude is crazy as fuck. Love him. Coulda been the real thing, although I think Lennox would’ve always cleaned him.

 

[MEAN357]

Lmao I love sherdog only place a buncha fucking dorky white guys are experts in race nationality and culture

 

[dracul]

Cringe

Tony is such a weirdo

 

[campbecc]

Pretty sure he’s mexican. His race is mexican ffs, his nationality is American so that makes him mexican American

Mexican has nothing to do with race it's a country. If you meant Latino that also has nothing to do with race. Most Latinos are white, black, native to the Americas or a mix. It's a culture and has nothing to do with race. The term also refers to people in Europe from Spain and Portugal (also Italy but they are rarely called Latino nowadays).

All of this conjecture on Tony's heritage and national identity is absolutely ridiculous. I'm sure he knows where he's from , doesn't need telling even if he does, who gives a shit, Like telling Khabib he's Russian and not Dagestani based on his passport, meaningless shit . Being Mexican has 0 to do with anything stop reading into it.

 

[nefti]

Does tony speak fluent spanish? Or does he sound like a gringo trying to speak spanish?

 

[arcadeperfect]

definition of what constitutes an ethnicity - "the fact or state of belonging to a social group that has a common national or cultural tradition."

It most certainly is.

[arcadeperfect]

What’s Mexican than ? His former nationality ?
His ethnic composition is unknown to us, he is obviously a mix of Spanish and indigenous, the ratio is unknown but clearly he is not 100 Spanish and not even remotely close
As far as most people in North America are concerned Mexican is an ethnicity like American and Canadian which is why I didn’t bother going into the details

Real Americans and Canadians are the Indigenous people that were here first. Nowadays the terms American and Canadian are used to determine a person's nationality.

Reminds me of when he reminded Conor, that Conor doesn't even speak Irish, but instead relies on the language of the colonialists, that occupied Ireland. Khabib is good at triggering people by keeping the trash-talk somewhat real.

Doesn't Khabib speak Russian? The language of his colonialists? At least Ireland is an actual country, Dagestan isn't. Khabib has the Russian flag on his tale of the tape.

 

[The Big Bang]

When Tony was born he started break-dancing and tripped over his own umbilical cord and messed up his knee.

 

[YouKnowWhat?]

California belonged to Mexican Empire. Just because America conquered it, doesn't mean the Californian people are American

 

[Jose Beehive]

If he wasn’t born in spanish speaking household he is as mexican as a Japanese guy. My wife is Mexican and I know her family and everyone I ever met all HATE and totally despise chicanos, Born americans with mexican roots, because The chicanos look down on real mexicans they think they are better than them and her family always told me the biggest racist is not the white or black man but a Mexican Americans who are first or 2nd generations Americans. Most of them dont speak spanish and were not raised in a spanish speaking household, tony was one of them his spanish is basic and not fluent. And with his step daddy last name Ferguson aint doing himself any favors, but even if his last name was Fernadez he still be considered fake mexican by other real mexicans

Every line is horse shit here man for goodness sake, nobody gives a fuck about your ignorant wife.

Describe a ethnic American? A white guy? A black guy? Native American? Hispanic? American is a nationality just like Mexican is.

DNA

DNA has nothing do with ethnicity. An ethnicity is based on shared cultural traditions and values.

 

[arcadeperfect]

All I'm saying is, White Americans who have great grandparents who are from insert European country are mocked and not taken seriously by the public for deciding to rep those countries, such as fellow LW Paul Felder.

Why isn't the same thing done to Tony? It's a very fair question.

Probably because Felder's white. Most white people you can't tell precisely what their ancestral homeland is. Can you distinguish English, Irish, Scottish, or German apart without looking at their last name? Plus most white households don't really seem to keep their culture intact in comparison something like an Asian household.

DNA has nothing do with ethnicity. An ethnicity is based on shared cultural traditions and values.

As well as ancestry and physical features.

 

[French Canadian]

This is like telling a black guy he's not black cause he was born and raised in America.

It's like telling a guy hes not African because he's born in the US.1
