We need some Filipinos in the heavies..

You'll see a Filipino heavy about the same time you see a Samoan strawweight.

 

history 101:
the heaviest Filipino champion is Morris East (born Olangopa City, Philippines) at welterweight.

 

we'll see a heavyweight Filipino MMA fighter soon.

Brandon Vera

 

I read his father is Filipino and mother is Italian.

 

yeah. his father is filipino and mother is italian-american. but that still makes him filipino. less than 10% of filipinos are mestizos. true mexicans (i.e. aztecs, mayans indians) aren't really that big. its the spanish blood in them that makes them huge.

 

Yes it does make him a Pinoy mix but not a full Pinoy.I was just pointing out that he is big probably because he was/looked mixed.

 

Seen some heavyweight Thais, so filos shouldnt be to far away.

I think though its going to take a few generations to see some biggers filos start coming out though. As the economic conditions get better then less children will be malnourished.

Some of the filos around my area are pretty huge and most arent small, just average.

 

**** YOU! PUTANG INA MO!

 

if we can get some of these filipino basketball players to do boxing, but nah they won't

 

hehehe. easy lng 'pre.

 

Boxer Ceferino Garcia, for being the heaviest Filipino boxer who became a world champion when he knocked out world middleweight champion Fred Apostoli in New York in 1939; and for being inducted into the Ring Magazine Hall of Fame and into the World Boxing Hall of Fame in 1981

 

Schooled

 

marlou aquino not marlowe, EJ feihl not Ed feil. :hey no offense man. just clarifying

 

was it eligibility infraction or was it because of academic status of marlou? he was allowed to play even though his grades isn't enough for the league's standard.

 

Is there alot of Spanish desendants in the Philippines? Because a name like Vera sounds Spanish? I just looked , Vera is a Spanish last name.
