This makes him sound very weak and insecure.

Yes i did, he's butt-hurt because Messi stepped on a shirt that looked like the Mexican flag... big deal. Someone steps on a rag and he's ready to go beat him up? Alvarez needs to grow up, there are bigger things for him to cry about.

Maybe he should zero in on the mass corruption in the murder capital Mexico has become.

A reverse Andrés Escobar scenario incoming?

Maybe, but i think have a little more sense than to get mad and make threats at some imagined national slight. Like good old Bill Hicks said, "I hate patriotism, I can’t stand it man, it makes me fucking sick! It’s a round world the last time I checked, okay? Y’know what I mean? In fact, that’s how we can stop patriotism, I think. Instead of putting stars and stripes on our flags we should put pictures of our parents fucking! Gather people around that flag and see your dad hunched over your mom’s big 4x4 butt, see if any boot ‘n rally mentality can circle around that little fuckin’ image."

Nah, it's him. Wanting to fight over someone stepping on a rag is profoundly stupid. The insecurity is mind boggling.

Insecure and overly sensitive. I would expect a boxer to jave thicker skin.

It might seem that way if you don't belong to a cultural group yourself. A lot of redditors are zombie level consumerists with zero sense of culture, so they're not equipped with a frame of reference to understand things like family, community, blood, culture, etc.

You don't have to be a thin skinned nationalist to understand family, community, and culture. By blood I assume you mean some intangible shared national destiny since you already said family.

Yes, that's what I mean. Canelo gets it at least and he's the best boxer alive.

About as weak as getting but hurt about somebody wanting to fight somebody else. Maybe?

'Oh no! The honor of my country got hurt.'

Jesus Christ :D

Ok. I'll probably never understand nationalists and patriots.

Sahwing and a miss.

Downvoting me bro? Lol. You're real secure.

I don't particularly understand cosmopolitan ultra consumerists but I'm here to try

Mexico’s honor does not depend on their flag being treated properly. Maybe he can tackle police corruption and mass murders first?

You misspelled but hurt?

Just don’t use it next time… 🫠

>You're real secure

This is funny because your comment's single explicit purpose is to bitch about my downvote.

I don't get the ultra consumerist part either.

I don't think I agree with you. He's one man he obviously can't fix all of Mexico's internal problems, but he can defend his country's honour in a way he sees fit. I also love quails though, they're everywhere on my property and they're delightful animals.

You shouldn't lol. I know a lot of fighting talk is playing up for cameras but most of those guys are not thick skinned at all. Many remind me of high-school kids who would make drama at the drop of a hat.

Probably a bit inflammatory on my part, cosmopolitan modern progressive may be a more appropriate term.

Is he really asking for God’s punishment? I mean ‘he better pray to God that I don’t find him’ it’s like, ‘ hooh hooh hoorgh me monkey primate and sensitive and dangerous, God protect you against me. Hooh hooh God please stop me hoohooh hah hah hahm ! ‘

You are a troll

Is everyone who holds different values from you a troll? Seems like a reductive and simplistic worldview.

Sounds like the hockey players I grew up with. All "main characters" and all insecure.

Ah, got it.

Yes, I am very much that. Consumerist doesn't fit.

Sahwing and a miss.

I'm on this platform mainly to expose myself to people like you, I'm not a typical part of the reddit demographic but I sincerely appreciate being challenged on my preconceived notions. So thanks for engaging with me, even though we don't see eye to eye.

Lol. You're so bad at this it's almost endearing.

He doesn't have to respect your country. It's part of his moral character whether or not he does. Just like it's part of Canelo's moral character to go around threatening people.

Find him ? Just go round his house if you're that bothered . He will probably invite you in for a coffee.

If someone stepped on my countries flag, i'd just ignore then or point at them a d laugh.
I wouldn't turn to violence. But you know some people are easily triggered I guess.

If that means that your country/culture thinks violence is a way of dealing with someone disrespecting their flag, then I feel there are much bigger underlying problems that need to be addressed.

Yeah I mean canelo is also the greatest boxer on the planet so violence is kind of part and parcel to who he is.

It’s just selective outrage. That’s the problem. It’s like Americans that will complain more about an athlete kneeling during the anthem than the fact that 20 veterans committ suicide on a daily basis.

QUAILS! I’m in Southern Nevada so we see them all over too. I want to get a tattoo of a few of them.

Butt hurt much?

[removed]

When he isn't getting whooped by bivol.

After he finds OJs wife’s killer first.

So he’s looking for trouble just because Argentina beat Mexico?

overreaction af

As if “praying” has ever accomplished anything smh
