Blacks only have the athletic genes because white people bread them that way.

Blacks dominate most of the best sports, everything happens for a reason though.

What is the best sport?

The sport that I played in school is dominated by white Europeans and white South Americans with a few Africans and black Brazilians sprinkled here and there.

There are difference among the races. Let's just accept on it.

Quick: name Asian male **** star! See? Us Asian guys have tiny penises, for example.

So, let me get this straight: 200 years of amateur 'breeding" (based on, um, sight?) results in superior athletic ability despite 150 years of random 'breeding' after it stopped?

Yeah, OK.

Embarrassing comment by you.

another racist statement by a very narrow minded hopkins. I guess its ok for black people to be racist since slavery happened to them. No race has athletic superiority as evidenced by black people losing to whites in all sports & vice versa.

but this isn't "black people". it is a black PERSON - Hopkins.


The statistics prove that Blacks have athletic superiority.

Look at the Olympics. Look at the 100m dash (the purest test of athletic ability). The 200 fastest races have all been run by men of west african descent. They have superior genes for athleticism. That is statistical fact.

African-Americans make up 13 percent of the population. ...
66 percent of the National Football League, 77 percent of the National Basketball Association, and 40 percent of Major League Baseball. So the stats speak for themselves.

Black presence in boxing peaked alongside a total lack of financial alternatives. If anything, relative to the sheer amount of black youth around the world involved in boxing vs some single, random east euro/south american nation, blacks are pretty mediocre fighters per capita. There's almost no reason a modern European guy would want to be punched in the face for a living when he could live a luxurious life after 2 years in college, yet middleweight and up are washed out with them. And every weight below that is dominated by a handful of Latin American nations.

There's also a major difference in black american vs black african athletic traits, selective breeding for size not being a factor in native africans (whilst black americans are only 0.5 inches shorter on average than white americans, native africans are among the smallest people in the world on a continental level [aside from small isolated/inbred tribes with extreme average heights of 6'3"+]).

In US culture black men tend to view themselves as scary - and they're sort of right - but not because people think they have amazing fighting skills, its more socio-economic and knowing that he probably has nothing to lose and if you touch him your entire night is blown, the guy will make an event out of it because he has nowhere else to be. I'm a warlike middle eastern macho man so I throw these facts around quite casually, unlike rosey cheeked white guys who will play along with afro-american delusions. Many a black boy has been lectured about my hairy chest, washboard abs, and superior wit.

There is an anthropological explanation for black dominance in running sports relating to bone structure biometrics and muscle fiber frequency so that's a totally different subject. Non-black ethnicities have the same biometric and muscle fiber-related advantages in endurance and power, which I think are more relevant to hand-to-hand combat than running speed is, although not so in basketball and track.

That is like saying the casino does not have an advantage since I won $500 on a slot machine.
