i wonder why are there no dominant Dagestani fighers at HW

Heavyweights don't go to heavyweight because "they are big enough to make heavyweight".
They go to HW because they are too big to make LHW, whether genetically or due to lack of discipline. Of course this isn't absolute, but guys generally go to the smallest weight class they can reasonably cut to.

This "weight bully" crap is an intellectually lazy way of discrediting fighters you don't like. Like 95% of fighters will fight at the lowest weight class they can if it doesn't kill their performance or they don't repeatedly miss weight. Even one or two bad weigh ins don't typically change that.

You don't have to like it. I don't like it, but facts are facts.

Your boy Conor wasn't some victim of the bigger man. He was skeletor fighting at 145. I didn't complain about the fact that he was clearly much bigger than his opponents, so why are you crying "weight bully" when he lost to guys his own size?

Ok, and what is your basis for claiming people from Dagestan have inadequate nutrition and health care?

Clearly their longevity is not suffering.

Life expectancy is multifactorial and considering their life expectancy is lower than the West. Dagestan only beats Russian average by one year and they are suppose to be a non drinking and smoking people. Dagestan has a high infant mortality rate which is indicative of a poor healthcare system. It is also one of the poorest regions in Russia. You can look up the GDP per capita and Dagestan takes in the most federal aid from Russia.
 
If dagestanis were all HW's like the Samoans or something,there would just be another thread bitching about "how come they arent dominating the lighter and more skilled divisions" and alot of crying and making babies.
 
according to Rosstat, which is the russian state statistics service, the average height of Dagestanies, and also other northern caucasus people like chechens etc, is around 5´7 which makes them officially the "hobbits of the real world"... thats why you dont have a lot of dagi hw, they are basically midgets and plus their bodies are weak, they have the most injuries among all ufc fighters...

A region can be poor and still sufficient in nutrition among its populace. Dagestan has a lot of people living on a traditional diet outside of main cities. Again, up to you to show nutrient deficiency. So far you have made some poor connections and little else.

2017 stats give average Dagestan life expectancy as 6 years more than Russian average, which is obvious significant.

Midget would go down hard with a well-timed knee or vicious kick to the skull. Then a cruel-intentioned elbow to the forehead or a jaw-breaking hammer fist would send him to dreamland.

Would be fun to see.
