its not proven though. eskimos seem to come from asia but most native americans are more like mexicans than asians. its not 100% known where they fully came from but in university we learned many migrated from down around mexico. but eskimos vs native american you can tell a huge huge difference.

i dont need to read a book ...native amercanss are exactly like asians , the looks , the culture , the heritage, everything ....hell, i went to a a casino somewhere in oregon near an indian reservation and they called my pinoy homeboys brothers...i could'nt tell which one was which, they all looked alike....if you want to read about it look for "sunchasers"

I was gonna mention Joe Hipp. He had some good memorable hw battles in the early 90s; most notably against Tommy Morrison.

I also believe Tommy Morrison is native american as well, I could be wrong.

If your including North America then one of the most famous and also one of the "Tuffest" men in boxing was Gaspar "El Indio" Ortega!!! Gaspar fought at WW and at one time had more televised bouts than anyone.
A true inside fighter and never say die attitude made him a fan favorite for many many years!! He had wars with Stan Harrington and fought all of the top ten fighters of his era. He was never given a shot when he was in his prime at WW yet was a contender for 10 years!! He was trained by the same trainer and handled by the same management and is a loyal person to a fault! His son Mike is a welknown ref now a days and is on demand for bouts all over the world now! Gaspar is a friend of my families and was always there when I needed his help. A true competitor who was always in shape and willing to win. Still lives in New Haven Ct. my hometown and works with kids teaching boxing and looking just as he did 55 years ago! A trim 155 walking around weight and a ready 147 in a few days time!! Hola! El Indio!! Ray.

Tommy Morrison is a blue eyed blond haired white trash hil billy with AIDS. Nothing more, nothing less.

Shawn Hawk was the first person I thought of. This article about American Indian boxers talks about him.

your an idiot, your trying to say natives have the same culture and heritage as asians? they migrated 10,000 years ago and the paleo indian evolved differently then actual asians from asia dumbass. They share no linguistic or cultural ties to asia puga, get your head out of your ass.
