    Why are AA's so slick when Africans are stiff?

    I don't understand this phenomenon, AA's are slick and jive, with almost rubber bones as they contort and dance in the ring, presenting an almost impossible target

    But African fighters are usually stuff tough lumps of wood with little to no rythm

    Why is that

    africans are playing football and boxing i dont think is a big deal, u have some very good african football players and especially africans for example who play for france and other teams whos parents or grand parents have emigrated and they benefit from the french system of finding and nuturing athletes, they are extremely good, people like mbappe benzema desailly zidane kante dembele the list goes on and on they are literally the best in the world so africans can be extremely good but they need the right conditions not the conditions that exist for most of them to reach the top

      TOO MUCH muscle

      US Native Blacks have on average 20% white genes

          the million dollar question is why aren't Black-Brits as smooth as US Native Blacks

          Buff Guy Joshua and Buff Guy Dubois don't come with special effects unlike their counterparts across the pond

            Get the slick done whether through genetics or inspiration

            Pirog was black upstairs while Top Soviet Bivol is black in the feet. They fly for light skinned guys

            old interview years before he beat Saul, Bivol mentioned being inspired by American [black boxers] footwork

              American blacks have more natural genetic elusiveness due to centuries of evading law enforcement? )

                  I think Teddy Atlas once said the way fighters fight and the styles from different regions of the world are due to the different societies and attitudes the people have; aggressive styles because of aggressive communities, methodical style because of cerebral communities etc... Maybe there's factors at play in Africa which would explain their stiff nature, likewise for the slickness in America.

                    There are slick black HWs the size of AJ and Dubois in America right now?
