Why stupid? Can't you tell by looking at them they're chuck full of European Genetics?

I mean seriously. Look at the native tribesmen in the jungles of those countries who haven't been mixed with the Spaniards and then take another look at Nate, hell, even Cain lol

Not really odd.

Boxing in Mexico and most of Latin America for that matter became popular due to American influence, just like baseball, its no wonder that whenever there is good baseball there is also good boxing.

Thats why you dont see good fighters from Peru or Chile. Argentina i think got its boxing from the British, but there is a reason why we use english terminology Boxeo, ring, rounds its all english lingo.

Genes has nothing to do with it, grab a random untrained Mexican from the streets punch him and he drops as fast as anyone else. Its all about the training.

And boxing did came from north America, it doesn't matters whether Greeks fought or not in ancient times. Fist fighting died with the ancient world.

Fist-fighting in a box for money began in England and spread all over the English world. American sailors would organize prizefighting and Hispanics loving to see things fight each other (dogs, cocks, bulls) loved that sport and started doing the same.

Spain never really picked that up because they didn't traded much with the British, they had their own merchant ships.

Spain does has an excuse, boxing is unpopular there, just like baseball.

More like whites became too wealthy and boxing was beneath them.

You still have great white boxers, just not soft white Americans, but eastern europeans.

Much like everything they are good at, it comes from hard work and centuries of brutal oppression by their leaders.

Beneath them huh? All those ass beatings they received played no part in their declining participation in boxing? also Eastern Europeans are still behind by a large margin.

Who were the great American white boxers?

Italians, Jews and Irishmen, people that werent even considered real whites back then.

Boxing is an inner city sport, its no wonder minorities are overrepresented, same in latin America, its not the well off people the ones getting into boxers, nor rural peasants, its the inner city poor that do.

nick diaz, nate diaz, diego sanchez, giblert melendez, joseph benavidez, cain velasquez, tony ferguson, carlos condit all have crazy chins!

cain velasquez has not a bad chin but to put him in the same league as Nate Diaz based on the weight classes they typically compete in is not fair. Diego sanchez Chin might not be all that strong anymore, he has some fight-milage behind him to say the least. carlos condit is not mexian
 
Platinum Mike Perry has the best chin ever and he isn't mexican
 
Think it's genetics and fighting being in their blood.

Cain only has an average chin, too. He got rocked every time Kongo touched him.

Kongo usually send to sleep people with the shot that he gave to Cain, that showed that Cain's chin is solid.
 
Tequila,one of the best trainer in the world! No punch hits harder than that!

You need to try again harder because you're starting to look silly.

1st gif --> The shot landed in the back of the ear (we're talking about chins), but still got up immediately.

2nd gif --> Took not one but two big shots and the first he eat it like it was nothing and the second got him out of balance and still able to continue.
