    I'm curious why in every sport the majority of player are black or African race . Example is Basket ball,
    Run etc
    And when I'm watched Olympic in the run section almost all the country in the world use Black/African race
    And what make me laughed so hard is when I see black/African race as a China representative.
    that's not Chinese really why compete if you don't use your own people
    And from all I read about Chinese it is country that had very high almost maniac in nationalism and bad tolerance to foreigners we all know all the doctrine and propoganda of the communism country it's laughable
    And it's not only Chinese

    Maybe it's a problem of physique?

    Apparently, this is due to the physical structure of the body.

    Black people are generally better at athletics. At least in the US it is definitely so, and for a variety of reasons.

    Part of it is because they're descendants of generations of slaves who were selectively bred for strength; part of it is because it is one of only a few ways to get out of the ghetto.

    As for those from actual Africa.. well, with the continent being what it is, those who live long are mostly people with better-than-average strength and speed.

    It's just a fact, why worry that it'd be interpreted as racism?

    There is no racism in Russia during the time when America still had racism problem,
    ...cause there wasn't any blacks to discriminate.

    This reminds of the Fanalis ( Morgiana tribe/race ) from Magi.

    Man I should continue the manga.

    Different races have different body structures.
    I know that Dentists love mixed race children because often times upper and lower jaws don't fit right. Mo Money.

    Whites have the most power in general. Like lifting heavy weights.
    Hispanics are know for endurance. Like boxing staying power.
    Africans have more speed muscle, and I believe that their tendons/ligaments in their legs are designed slightly different allowing them more pop when jumping/running.
    Asians tend to have longer waists and stronger backs. Less back problems, better at lowering center of gravity for martial arts etc...

    i think i heard the answer to that in a stand up joke, "its so that they can run from da police".
    well honestly i think its genetic factor. like more elastic joints, bigger and taller frame or what not. like how white people have big muscles.

    Maybe they are african-chinese, half or sumtin.

    Anyways they are a citizen of that country so its cool right. A single country is not for a single race right.

    If the countries import the athletes from other countries to play on their behalf, I guess that is a strategy of some sort.

    Pardon my poor tagalog

    historically speaking the african people come from an ancestry of very athletic people who would continously chase down animals like cheetahs, rhinos, etc desu~

    they were built more resilient at sports where endurance was required desu
    so its more of years of evolution desu
    also this one is not a popular opinion but black people are people who were exposed overtly to the sun and are less likely to acquire skin cancer in comparison to white people desu~

    o_O Almost everything in this thread is false and no it wasn't slave descended African Americans who predominantly excelled.

    Because they run faster and built up muscles faster from a genetical advantage, same with Asians having thicker bones due to genetical heritage

    Life is very strange many pros and cons

    Wonder why jews always were bankers coz they weren't allowed to pursue other jobs but that's another topic

    Now prepare for the first designer babies with only "the best trades" rofl

    There's plenty of sports where black people don't dominate.

    Off the top of my head: Table Tennis, Volleyball, Badminton, Gymnastics, Figure Skating
