Why has Japan not provided many good heavyweights?

Sakai Tsushima I just Googled. Any good? I haven't played video games in a long time. I had a PS4 but it burnt in the fire :( lol

Busy making PlayStations duh

Boxing is a very popular sport in Japan. They have many world champions in the lower weight classes. But why do you never see a Japanese heavyweight? - -Same reason the intelligence dream skipped U forebearers.

bruh really just asked this question??? well, maybe it's because japanese people arent known to be BIG. and if you do get the few BIG japanese guys, they are usually not well balance and weird deformed looking freak show.

For the same reason good heavyweights don't often come from many other Asian counties. Very few Japanese men are big enough to fight as a heavyweight so the potential talent pool is small. They do well in the lighter weight classes.

they are smaller people as a whole but they do have the sumo guys but thats a different sport and would not be good for boxing. Sumo is different ...from a very young age and they are bred for sumo...they are literally force fed food to make them gain huge amounts of weight at a young age.

Japanese have high iq so if some of those karate, judo and sumo guys went into boxing there'd be a Japanese heavyweight champ eventually. If it was a priority for the government. Training kids from kindergarten, it would be sooner rather than later.

The answer is kind of obvious isn't it?

Genetics? https://boxrec.com/en/ratings?role=proboxer&offset=0&sex=M&division=Heavyweight&country=JP Shows 5 total on boxrec. #1 being the guy Daniel Dubois KO'd in 2 rounds they are smaller people as a whole but they do have the sumo guys but thats a different sport and would not be good for boxing.

They dont produce naturally HW sized athletic people at the same rate that some other places do.

Boxing is a very popular sport in Japan. They have many world champions in the lower weight classes. But why do you never see a Japanese heavyweight? Probably your answer there. I'd assume they just don't have enough big guys, kind of like how Mexico has had a **** ton of world champions at the lower weights, and only recently had their first heavyweight champ in Ruiz.

According to professor Malignaggi they are not, at this point in time or at anytime the superior species.
