    On average, Asians are smaller than the rest of the world's population. As a result, you're going to see very few, if any, Filipinos in the higher weight classes.

    Actually there are some Filipinos who are over 6 feet and 200 pounds, but they play in the local pro basketball league in the Philippines.

    The same things applies for most of Latin America. They don't grow very big, either. I can't even name a Mexican heavyweight.

    History Lesson 101--there has only been ONE Filipino heavyweight that has ever had a RECORDED fight. And he had 2 in 1930 & 1931, in fact only 3 have ever had a recorded fight over the middleweight limit.
