  • Boxing has faded in the United States, eclipsed by extreme ultimate fighting, hurt by a lack of homegrown heavyweight stars and banished to small audiences on television pay-per-view. But south of the border, the sport remains hugely popular, aired almost every Saturday evening on national television. Bouts draw steady ratings, and top boxers claim masses of followers.

      This is so true. Boxing in the United States is confined to pay-per-view bouts. The majority of the matches - one of the fighters has a Spanish last name. That is evidence that boxing is alive and well in Mexico.
  • Soccer may be Mexico's national sport, but boxing speaks to the never-give-up grit and warrior spirit that Mexicans say date to Aztec times.

      Interesting comparison to their Aztec heritage.
  • "Soccer and boxing: These are the two favorite sports of Mexicans,"
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • "We have more than 100 world champion boxers in our history. … People say, 'Boxing is what brings us glory, so let's support boxing.' "
  • Sweat, perseverance and a desire to climb out of poverty are on display, as one might expect. A few retired fighters evince an air of sadness, and their stories of fortunes earned and squandered also don't surprise.

      This is an interesting and somewhat surprising fact. It will make a good 'do now' question as students walk in the door - What are the two most popular sports in Spain?
  • Football Without question this sport is foremost in the minds of the majority of Spaniards and throughout the country
    • L Butler
      L Butler on 04 Aug 11
       
      It might say football - but it is not American football. Futbol = kicking the ball around with your foot trying to score in the net, aka soccer to Americans.
  • The game is based on the principle of propelling a hard ball, using a basket-like glove at great force against hard high walls, much in the manner of squash but without using rackets.

      Pelota is uniquely Spanish. The word 'pelota' by itself means 'ball' in Spanish.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Bullfighting The bullring with its theatrical and sporting elements is considered by the population as the second most popular pastime in Spain.

      Bull fighting is a very traditional 'sport' in Spain. To people from non-Spanish speaking countries they might feel it is uncalled for violence to the animals. Just because it is different from the United States does not make it wrong.

    This website provides a short summary of the main sports that you can find in Spain. There are many similarities and differences to the United States that will provide discussion points in class.

    • In this day of high-stakes testing and frequent complaints from teachers that they “don’t have time to use technology” in the classroom, this wiki seeks to bridge the gap to help teachers see that technology doesn’t have to be an add-on that distracts them from focusing on the curriculum. Rather than accepting an either/or mentality, we can begin to connect technology to the accepted “best practices” that our districts expect to see in our classrooms.
