Overeem etc... Why the Dutch are the Dutch

[Raziel82]

Born in England = Dutch. Im born in Australia, can i be German?

Well. Technically being born in Australia makes you an outcast Britt (unless you're an aboriginal). It's likely your ancestors were criminals and were send to that island. Good thing Australia finally gave the aboriginals recognition. They are the real Aussies. :wink:

It really hurts to see how many people here have racist views and are not ok with sharing genetics. Not everyone is lucky enough to be born in a civilized country.

Yes, lots of people think Overeem is only big because of horsemeat, but in fact the bike riding had a lot to do with it, too.

Well that is news to me. I was a bit skeptical about the horsemeat story tbh. This clarifies it.

I'm really disappointed Wiki doesn't have a page on Dutch Genetics.

Good thing it wasn't sarcasm than. The truth hurts. :icon_twis

There is no need for being racist. In Holland we firmly believe that everyone who lives in Holland is Dutch and therfore is entitled to also use our genetics.

so if I move to Holland I will be Dutch and become 6'5 and weigh 265lbs of pure muscle? nice to know lol

You might have noticed that somehow most relevant Dutch fighters are heavyweights. The Dutch have been described by the Romans as giants.

Nope the Germanic tribes have. They are the ancestors of most ppl in Holland, Belgium, Scandinavia, German, England and the US so ...

Bigfoot is a beast

Brazilians are the Brazilians

Overeem is black. I don't think the Romans met Dutch people like him.

I'm pretty sure he is half Dutch though.

 

[Raziel82]

I'm pretty sure he is half Dutch though.

According to dude blacks can't be Dutch. I believe there are politicians in the Netherlands trying to sell that shit. Who knew they came to sherdog.

You do have to train a little though, the rest : Yes.

 

[Stoupe]

Overeem isn't genetically Dutch, he is black lol.
And the dutch were like the smallest european people in the middle ages, they got bigger because of better nutrition in modern times.
Papal guards were Swiss and they still are.

Overeem is half Dutch thus he has their genetics. :icon_chee

 

[Raziel82]

Why would you want to give up Scottish genes to become a puny Dutchman? Scotsmen are much bigger.

Scotsmen are 7'9" tall, 500+ pounds heavy. That's 2.36 m, 230+ kg for you Euros.

Sorry, let my rephrase myself. I don't think Scottisch and Dutch genes should be combined either.

 

[NikkiNeversleep]

[Laban]

Urijah Faber's dad is from Holland...and we all know what a towering giant Urijah is.
