Whenever there is an olympics White Nations seem to come at the top as opposed to black nations like Africa and some Asians nations.

Quote - whites, who are less than 10 percent of the world's population, win 90 percent of the medals at the Winter Games and 70 percent at the Summer Games and are continually mocked by the media for their supposed lack of athleticism, while blacks excel in very few sports but are universally touted as the world's greatest athletes.

I was just wondering why do certain races excel at different sports but Whites seem to be all round good athletes. Boxing of late has also become a solely White dominated sport also. Once the Russian Federation collapsed the East European fighters came over to the US en masse and dominated in little to no time.

They are hungry fighters and they arent scared to fight, perhaps the Whites in the US have been brainwashed to think they arent good enough?

And no liberals i'm not racist, get a grip

dude, i don't know where you are getting your facts from but they are way out in left field. Many "blacks" dominate sports.
1) Basketball
2) football (NFL AND CFL)
3)Short and long distance running
4)boxing
Many blacks have set standards in sports. ie. Jesse owens, micheal jordan, kobe bryant, barry bonds, tiger woods, shoeless joe jackson, mike tyson, mohammed ali, dione sanders (multi sport) , bo jackson (multi sport), grant fuhr, jerome iginla, venus and serina williams and the list goes on and on and on.
Think about this statistic (and i'm canadian) 12.7% of the total population of the usa is black. 2% of the total population of canada is black. That really isn't a lot in the grand scheme of things. not a lot at all. Socio-economics (lack of money) and racism unfortunatly are the two leading factors why some sports are predominatley participated by "whites".
as far as winter olympics go. Most of the predominatley "black" countries are warm climates with no oppourtunities to train. Many cannot send a lot of participants because of lack of funding. Trust me, if blacks had the same oppourtunities as "whites" as far as fairness (no racism) and $$$$$ whites would be a very low percentage of the athletic world.

Dare I suggest the issue might be more related to financial support rather than anything else?? Developed countries have more money to throw at 'unnecessary' things like sports. I don't think it has anything to do with one race having better or worse natural ability

simple because they have the money and the resources to train athletes. do you think that africa, with its dying people wouldnt have faster runners than other countries.
