[TheNBAFanatic]

Carmelo Lee is a crackhead.

[gio1764]

That shows Blacks and Puerto Ricans are one,we may have different cultures,but we have the same ancestory,which stems from Africa.

[jagatech]

@gio1764 only a minority of puerto ricans actually have african ancestry.

QUE SE QUEDE EN EL BASKETBALL PORQUE EN EL BOXEO LO PUEDEN LASTIMAR LOS MEXICANOS .

[loveangel71]

@basick123 Oh! si quieres que te mande las peleas que hemos ganado y los campeones boricuas en el boxeo que hemos lastimado a los Mexciano por favor nosotros en cualquier deporte o lo que sea triunfamos. no venga hablar mierda aqui pendejo.

@basick123 In Puerto Rico, boxing is considered a major sport, having produced more amateur and professional world champions than any other sport in its history.[1] Puerto Rico ranks third worldwide between countries with most boxing world champions and is the only place to have champions accredited in all of the current boxing divisions.[2][3] This number also places the archipelago in the global lead in terms of champions per capita.[2]

[loveangel71]

@basick123 February 9, 2008 was the first time that boxers from Puerto Rico had held three of the four major welterweights titles (World Boxing Association, International Boxing Federation and World Boxing Organization) when Carlos Quintana defeated Paul Williams to join Miguel Cotto and Kermit Cintron as champions in the division.[4]

[loveangel71]

@basick123 ndividually, Puerto Rican world champions have earned numerous achievements. These include, Wilfredo Gómez's record for most defenses in the super bantamweight division and for most successive knockouts by a titleholder. On September 3, 1994,

[loveangel71]

@basick123 Daniel Jiménez established a world record for the quickest knockout in a championship fight, defeating Harald Geier in 17 seconds.[5] Juan Manuel López is fifth in this category, having defeated César Figueroa in 47 seconds during his first defense.[5] Ossie Ocasio was the first World Boxing Association (WBA) cruiserweight champion, winning it on February 13, 1982.

[loveangel71]

@basick123 This accomplishment was mimicked in other organizations: Jose De Jesús, José Ruíz Matos, John John Molina and Héctor Camacho did it in their respective divisions in the World Boxing Organization (WBO), while Ángel Almena was the first pugilist to win the International Boxing Organization's super flyweight title.

[loveangel71]

@basick123 The first Puerto Rican to win a world championship was Sixto Escobar, who won it on June 26, 1934. During the 1960s and 1970s, there was an increase in the number of pugilists who achieved this recognition.[8] Including Wilfred Benítez who on March 6, 1976,

[loveangel71]

@basick123 became the youngest world champion in history at 17 years old. This tendency continued during the following two decades, reaching its peak between the 1980s and 1990s. There was a slight decline in the 1990s. Félix Trinidad was Puerto Rico's most notable champion during this period.[9] The 2000s brought another increase, as over a dozen boxers won world championships.

[ktible]

Jose Barea is NOT 6 feet tall!

[yanibori]

@ktible yes he is! i saw him and he was taller than me and i'm 5'10

[lesleenbulldy]

carmelo lee is half black and half puerto rican and he was born and raised in the states thats why he doesn't speak spanish

[boricua316]

[TheMenace909]

[Traehoe06]

who cares he sucks

[Wichi147]

jose barea matando.... y en la nba esta jugando bien cabron... y el otro noc quien carajo es pero.... barea esta subiendo es mejor q carlos arroyo..

[jlj3beautifulkids]

He does not speak spanish because he grew up with his mother who is African-America and only speaks english. His biological father is puerto rican.

[GaoGao56]

so hes part black and part puerto rican?

[jlj3beautifulkids]

Actually Black is a color. There are Puerto Ricans who are Black. As I said before his mother is African-American and his father is Puerto Rican.

[GaoGao56]

ill start calling ppl black ppl african americans when other ppl stop thinking all the hispanics are mexicans.

[Kingvenom7]

you r wrong, he speak spanish, wach a video that was taken here in puerto rico, no te duermas

[jlj3beautifulkids]

We are talking about Carmelo Lee and the fact that he does not speak Spanish, not JJ.

[Kingvenom7]

but do you mean jj barea?

[MANSONRULZ54]

i've seen an interview with his parents, and they both sound puerto rican to me. and also jj speaks spanish at the end of this interview.

[MANSONRULZ54]

oh, wait, were you talking about carmelo? if so, then sorry.

[hawkeyecub]

Ummmm...why can't Lee speak Spanish if he's from PR???

[chu93rr]

SO animal tal kosa komo el lenguaje puertorrique~o no existe. En puerto rico se habla espa~ol. Y si tenemos otro lenguaje es el de la calle y sigue siendo espa~ol.. SO BRUTO!!!

[Yo0Yo0Man]

Puertorican language ROFL!

[pablitopicapiedra]

"and also say something to them in puertorican, ehh in spanish" lol

[javiperz]

Es un equipo inconsistente. Los grande tienen que rendir mejor. Tenemos mucho camino por recuperar ya que hasta China es mejor que PR. Talvez es tiempo te apoyar otros deportes como el volley ball. He insisto el tal Lee no es puertorriqueno, de causalidad cualifico por su herencia de sus padres, pero probablemente el no sabia donde quedaba PR. En el pais hay material criollo para desarrollarlo, las escuelas necesitan mas dinero, pero el gov. se lo roba......que pena

[JSCHITO]

MIRA LEE SPANISH SIN BARRERA PAPA

[javiperz]

Lee, funny guy......no entiendo como pasan un americano por Boricua, ni siquiera puede decir una sola palabra en Espanol. Si fuera asi yo puedo jugar por Espana ya que soy 2nd generacion Espanola. Por Dios, aprendan tan solo decir ...."Hola"

[Elpitbulpr]

SU PADRE ES BORICUA Y PAPA D USA Q PASO?

[javiperz]

parece que tu no sabes la definicion de lo que es ser boricua. Por que seas de raices PR no significa que tu forma de pensar y costumbres sean de un puertorriqueno. En la isla de PR hay talento para desarrollar con Boricuas criollos de la isla. Es una verguenza decir que alguien es Boricua si ni siquiera puede espresarse.......he dicho!!!!!

[Elpitbulpr]

Se ve q eres PNP, ahora se yo entonces tu dices q mi pai no es boricua pq su madre es de usa mamao?

[PFlaw317]

on everything Puerto Rico is looking stronger than ever this summer. They even got Santiago back.

[nofuneralwithoutfun]

PUERTO RICO!

NOS VEMOS EN CHINA 2008!

[dvidrio777]

Barea pa alante papa!! Sigue asi Humilde que vas bien!! Puerto Rico los apoyamos!!

[DJLEONPR]

THE BEST TEAM EVER PUERTO RICO
