Which of course is not true. But at the elite, world record levels, every little thing counts, and having genetics tending to work against you reduces one's odds. So while the best west African descended swimmer could beat the best European descended swimmer, the odds are highly stacked against this. Same for the odds of the fastest European descended sprinter beating the fastest west African descended sprinter.

In short distance sprints it's not as noticeable, it would be even more apparent in endurance swimming. The advantages that lend themselves to sprints are drawbacks for endurance, I'm tired of repeating that to you..
Yep. As I wrote earlier, the west African gene pool confers higher muscle density, greater proportion of fast twitch muscles, longer limbs relative to torso, and smaller lung volume. Not the stuff of world beating swimmers, especially since most swimming events are aerobic.

As MISCDASIT noted, diving is different from swimming. So different that even mentioning a black diver as a counterargument in a discussion of the genetic disadvantages west African descended people have in elite level swimming is borderline retarded.

You never address that, if it's all a lie then why don't Whites do the best?
Most will not want to seriously consider this, even though the data is out there. Instead, most will cry "racism!" and stick their heads in the sand.

So instead, let us acknowledge that black men (of west African descent) are gods among us. This follows from leftist logic. They are generally more athletic (for most athletic endeavors, a greater proportion of fast twitch muscle, longer limbs, and greater muscle density are an advantage), they have more testosterone, and they have bigger dicks (all of this is backed by plenty of evidence, and even leftists can't deny it with a straight face). And, if you believe the equalists, they are at least as good at everything else as men of every other ethnicity. Thus, they are superior to all other races.

Sports that very little blacks participate in due to the fact fewer of them in colder climates

and

nobody cares about those sports. Who the **** watches the Winter Olympics? lol

There are many sports and many types of athletes. Keep in mind bros, outside of USA no one else really watches the nfl.
The GOAT soccer player is afro Brazilian
Jordan Burroughs, black American, won gold last olympics in wrestling
Outside of Canada nobody really watches hockey
They don't dominate kickboxing or lifting but they do pretty well,

all I'm saying is p4p blacks of the Americas are the most successful athletes. For a small population you can still find at least one at the top of many sports, and they outright dominate some in a country where they're the minority.

wtf if a golpher?
"Powerlifters shout at bodybuilders because bodybuilding produces mountains of muscle tissue with no functional purpose. Strongman competitors look down on powerlifters because there's more to strength than a one-rep max in three lifts performed with a minuscule range of motion. Olympic lifters, if you can find them, get to feel smug because every 4 years, you can turn on the TV at 3 AM and see them compete for gold. And everyone hates on CrossFit."

There is a long distance race on as we speak (10 k) and guess who is leading? Kenyans and Ethiopians. There is like one white guy and two Asians on the whole track. More cope, please.

I never said they dominate all sports, people are just pretending I said that because they don't want to admit what I really said was true: that black North Americans overall are the most successful athletes

Meh, black people can have their sporting superiority, I'll gladly take a loss in that category and walk away with the high intelligence and elevated sexual market value genetics bestowed upon me by my white genome.

in a word op, no.

edit: in fact, if you took the number 1 performing athlete in the most competitive sports, you'll find that the majority are actually white european descents.

Umm depends what sports we're talking here.










Was going to include Ronaldo and a bunch of greats of all time in olympics but obviously less black competition back then.

Were you the one who compared 70 million black people to all of the worlds white populations? Yeah your refute is invalid.

There is a black girl of Nigerian heritage on the US indoor volleyball team. She's pretty.

All the diving and volleyball girls are solid as f*ck.

Edit: there are actually two black girls.
