Why do Asian fighters have such great hand speed? Pacquiao, Khan

Who the **** is Khan?

 

Soon to be WBA-Lightwelter Weight World champion, that's who.

 

Hector camacho sr was asian? suger ray? You must be asian yourself.

 

Khan is probably more closely related to a European than to Pac.

 

It's true, Khan and Pac arent even the same race!

Just because they're from the same continent (this is technically true, although in the USA we refer to Pakistan as middle eastern - rarely would you hear someone call a Pakistani person or Indian person "Asian" here) doesn't mean ****. Middle easterners are technically caucasian (no, this doesn't mean that they are white - North Africans are also Caucasian). Manny Pacquiao is East Asian (Oriental is a common term but dont know if this is PC), a different thing entirely.

 

Shannon Briggs is not amused!

 

This is a stupid thread... bye

 

uhhhh :tired

 

Darni you mug trying to big Khan up huh ?

Physically, South Asians are the most feeble human beings. They are hardly as athletic as the East Asians. Now don't call me a racist because I have South Asian conections. That's the Gurkhaland if you know where it is.

 

LOL you obviously haven't met the indian/pakistani wrestlers

 

Aren't phillipinos a mixed race of chinese, indian , arab, spanish etc ?

 

well, khan was born and bread in Bolton, England and is as much British (growing up with Brit food, water, environment, air, which shapes you more)

 

Thats why they have bagged many many gold medals in the olympic wrestling. lol
How many Izzy?

Lesson- learn to expand your shell. Sorry if I sound rude but S Asians are the most fragile ones. And no, they are not the best wrestlers. Have you seen wrestlers other than Indians and Pakistanis at all ?

 

Seriously it doesn't bother me if people speculate whether certain racial groups have physical advantages they can bring to the sports.
What I do find strange is the lumping of Amir Khan and Manny Pacquiao. :think
