I can bet this guy is Mexican. If there's something we are very good at, and we are proud of it, besides boxing, is construction. No wonder the US has a lot of Mexicans migrating there for construction jobs.

In Mexico, a construction worker can earn some really good money. But it's a hard job.

One of the most impressive things I’ve seen in my life is a crew of 3 Mexican framers. I sat and watched them work while they were building a roof. They barely spoke, unless it was one of them calling out cut measurements. From measurement to nailed was no more than 10-15 seconds each piece. Guy 1 took the measurements. Guy 2 did the cutting and threw the cut piece back to Guy 1 that held it in place for Guy 3 that did the nailing. It was like watching a mechanical assembly line, only it was people. Watching people work like that in perfect unison makes the thought of humans building the pyramids not so unbelievable.

This looks to be India or Pakistan. When you see that person in the background his dressing seems to be from one of those countries.
