At the very least, they had to fight during the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) due to American ambitions on their western territories.

Then, after the Mexican-American War was lost, Mexico was forced to cede the whole states of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, as well as parts of Wyoming, Colorado, Oklahoma and Kansas.

Finally, after these were taken by the United states, most Mexican people already-inhabiting those lands were eventually driven-off by American settlers -- usually helped by the U.S. Government -- bent on fulfilling the Manifest Destiny.

How did manifest destiny affect settlers?

Manifest Destiny was the belief that the general population during the early years of America held. They thought it was destined by God for America to stretch from ocean to ocean. So, the American government bought and fought for the remaining land that separated the US from the pacific, gaining land from Mexico, France, England, and a few other countries. The government used propaganda and advertising to gain the interest of the American people and convince them to move westward, thus a huge migration of people moved west in order to conquer the virgin land and complete manifest destiny.
