Why are whites stronger at weightlifting but blacks punch harder?

I notice that the world's strongest men, tend to be white, but blacks tend to hit harder and knock people out more easily. I mean, look at Mike Tyson. But no person of color can rival Thor or Eddie Hall in weightlifting.

Aren't stronger people supposed to hit harder? Isn't that the reason men hit harder than women do?

Growing up, I always had the impression that blacks were stronger than whites, because I see them win most of the street fights, but then I found out that blacks don't actually have an advantage when it comes to weightlifting. They are just faster and jump higher.

Think there are a lot of genes at play. But big Scandinavian dudes like thor have insane bone structure... Its probably fair to say that black dudes could have more fast twitch muscle fibers allowing for punch power. But even that kinda comes down to leverages too... Also, people learn to box in the hood bro. You don't see many hoods in Scandinavian countries like Iceland.

Black people have hollow bones like birds.

black people needed to fight lions and the smilodon which required fast reflexes and hard hits while white people needed to fight wooly mammoths and bears the size of a school bus so they needed to be strong enough to stick a spear into the animal and drive it deep
