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

    Then you confused my point with someone else's. I never claimed big men are a prerogative of eastern europe, just northern-central europe.

    The tallest people in average comes from Holland, for example. Eastern Europeans are too big, but more on the thick side than on long frame.

    Anyway i'm not claiming one side or the other, just that in general the tallest, biggest people come from Europe, more from the northern and eastern side.

    And it's not that southern regions are small, either, they have the problem that nobody knows, follows or practice combat sports. There's only football and more football, with the occasional tennis and motor competition.

    EDIT: also, the only heavyweight in history to retire undefeated also hold the highest ko percentage of them all, and he was 100% genetically Italian. This for those claiming western europeans are weaker. They aren't, in fact they dominate their choosed sports, it's just that culturally, they aren't fighting oriented but highly pussified.

    you have no argument from me there: people from Holland are tall.

    This thread is a joke.
