Do Hispanic fighters all have great cardio?

[goldennirvana]

hispanic isnt a race. there are black hispanics.

Then the argument that 'hispanics are such great fighters' is utterly meaningless. Genetics have been discussed in this thread which implies hispanic success in MMA and boxing is racial.

and marquez and rigo arent retired. also monzon is a middle weight and a top 3 on at that.

Marquez hasn't fought in two years and Rigo is black.

One single great middleweight hispanic fighter somehow proves that hispanics dominate boxing in all weight classes.

By hispanic you mean Mexican right? Because i dont think Lombard is known for his cardio.

By Hispanic I mean Hispanic. Not just Mexican; Panamanians, Venezuelans, Argentinians, Spanish, etc. all have national hero fighters known for cardio. I also quantified it by stating right at the start "that of course not EVERYONE falls into this stereotype, but that should go without saying. It would be like someone saying "Canadians love their Hockey" and someone else chiming in "NO, I have a Canadian friend that HATES hockey."

How mexican are the diaz bros, they look part white ?

Their mom looks white. Not sure about dad though.

There is a pretty deep history of combat sports with Hispanic fighters and a lot of guys competing. So by the time you get to the elite odds are they are going to be very good. And people pride themselves on different things culturally.

That fight until your dead attitude is pushed hard so it's not surprising that the result is cardio and heart more often than not. But it comes from approach obviously and not genes or anything like that.

The best marathonists are black, so are the best sprinters, genes yes, race no.

there are many many many genetic differences that can be plotted on a graph matching race.

What a shitty little world you live that you cant see anything beyond race, obsessed with it like a BLM protester.

The argument "hispanics are such great fighters" its not meaningless, if its a cultural phenomena, just like "mongolians make great wrestlers" isnt meaningless because they dominate judo, sumo and wrestling.

As for hispanic boxers, you cant be serious and tell me that Mexico, the Caribbean and south america dont produce quality boxers.

Running is not one of them.

At least half white.

As for TS, first person that comes to mind is Abel Trujillo
Also a good chunk of the fighters out FROM mexico have gassed in their UFC fights
Hector Urbina
Augusto Montana
to name a few.

You can be white and mexican.

Mexican fighters tend to be cagier and have better cardio because they just train that way. I'm not sure if that applies to all Hispanics. And either way ,it has nothing to with genetics/race because you know, Hispanic and Mexican aren't races.

OK, then go start a thread about running and race because my comment did not refer to running.

Do people realize that hispanic is a term that literally means from Spain? why are americans so obsessed with making everything about race?

Hispanic basically means you are from a spanish speaking country which are Spain and most of its colonies.

When it comes to fighting race makes even less sense than other sports where there are clear advantages based on phenotypes.

Americans seem to be obsessed with race to a point where they must fit eveyrone in a racial category.

So we have idiots like GN that are unable to understand that someone can be black and hispanic at the same time like most hispanic caribbean countries.

I had in another instance being told by someone that Spaniards are not hispanic (WTF).

What are some physical traits that certain races share?

 

[Son of Werdum]

Figured I would post this in here since I don't know where else I will fit it in and Salvador Sanchez was a fucking badass. He kinda fights like a Diaz, but with way better boxing technique, defensive abilities, and a much harder puncher.
