Why are the higher weight divisions more populated with Eastern Euros at the top?

And Mayweather has SAID he's never taken steroids (and he has never failed a test) so you believe him, right?

 

Aaron Pryor?

OK, we're getting to a point of total ridiculousness, but I'll school you with one more little peice of information. In order to cause extra height, growth hormones must be taken while the growth plates are STILL OPEN, which means before 20 for most men.

The world's most famous athlete, for instance, was 4'2 when he started taking HGH.

It's probably genetics. Cold climates inhabitant have the highest average height and size between all populations.

Apparently because a bigger body holds better the heat, or also because it's known in places like Latvia or Ukraine people have starved for generations and generations, and still worked hard to death in 60 degrees farehneit.

 

What I think doesn't equal a milk bucket under a bull. He signed a contract with a team that stipulated that they spend $900 a month on his growth hormone treatments, because his family couldn't afford it. otherwise they say he might not have made 5'0. This is fact not my opinion

 

Lol, he has been taking growth hormones his whole life. That's no secret.

 

Come to think about it. This is actually amazing. Considering communism and the lack of basic nutrients/foodstuffs. IT is definitely suprising they are so tall there

 

Genetics. Eastern Europeans suffer from malnutrition,poverty, high levels of stress etc, and still can be incredibly tall. Imagine if there were no negative environmental stimulants, they would be much taller and stronger.

 

That is not really cheating though, as long as it is done to improve the lives of someone, taking growth hormones should not be a problem.

 

Americans are too busy playing Disneyland or NBA, I always forget which one :think

 

Eastern Euro's tend to be the tallest. But they also tend to have thicker skeletal frames.

My grandfather is a full blooded Lithuanian. He was never fat or never muscular. But always thick framed. His wrists, ankles and waist were just thick.

It's diluted now for me. Just 1/4. I've inherited a more fragile skeleton. So boxing probably wouldn't be my thing.

 

No he took them when he was young to prevent him becoming a dwarf . That's like saying a cancer patient who uses chemo is a peds cheat becuase chemo isn't natural

 

It's better than playing footsies or soccer or whatever they call it these days

 

what a lot of nonsense in this this thread.

review the numbers:

Lol, was it a life or death issue that he wasnt tall? He's a chemical product, hadnt he used growth hormones FOR YEARS AND YEARS, he wouldnt be not even the half he is now. That's not cheating? ok, that's fine, i dont feel like arguing.

 

Who are these fighters that you're talking about?:huh
