Why No Mexican Heavyweight Legends?

The lower weights were/are stacked with legends how come no love for the Heavyweight division over the years?

 

Mexicans, and Latinos in general, tend to be smaller.

 

I think that the average mexican is about 5"5.5"

 

I'm guessing because like asians, mexicans are a typically pretty small or regular sized people, so not many are going to be big enough?

just a guess though. dont know what i'm talking about.

 

There are some big mexicans but they are few and even less are good at boxing

 

The average height for a male in Mexico is 5'7.

 

It's a numbers game. Compare [url]Heavyweight[/url] with [url]Featherweight[/url] in Mexico (hyperlinks).

If you do the same for the US, the situation is reversed, with [url]Featherweight[/url] having way fewer fighters than [url]Heavyweight.[/url]

 

Saul montana was the closest thing to HW legend

he got his ass knock out by tua

 

What about George Chuvalo? Isn't he of Mexican descent by way of Canada?

 

Oops. Croatian! Sorry.....

 

As many have stated, it has to do with Hispanics in general being of shorter stature than those of other regions.

 

They're in wrestling. :deal
















:yep

 

because they are ****ing and shittly small ! ! !

 

Too bad your virgin ass ain't.

 

Mexicans don't eat as much processed or hormone laced food as their northern & western neighbors. As soon as the fast food joints and shitty foods take hold in Mexico, then expect 6"-7" giants.
