South asia produces the fewest profesional athletes in the world Cricket isn't that physically demanding of a sport England blacks dominate asians in athletics In the west we don't see many south asian athletes An pakistan india bangledesh sri lanka combined have one of the worst records when it comes to athletics an these 4 countries represent 22percent of the world population yet make up less then 1\10th of 1 percent of total medals won in olympics an other international sports That is why south asia has become a joke Heck when dana white announced he's taking the ufc to india an other south asian countries some ppo called it a waste of time How much does athletic success depend on nature aka genetics African americans make up 12 percent of the population but over 80 percent of the football players in the nfl basketball players in nba an majority in mlb an dominate sports like boxing an mma How much of it has to do with nurture training facilities a alpha male culture of competativness in physical competition Diet Personally I believe with all the improvements to sports science that nature plays less of a role day by day an nurture plays a bigger role Sikhs take pride in being great soldiers but the best soldiers tend to be the most athletic Special forces soldiers tend to have equal conditioning to profesional athletes How much of it has to do with nature genetics And how much of it has to do with nurture I think its nurture that holds south asians back if we fixed diet an culture an had a more aggressive alpha male competative culture we would easily start dominating sports like soccer mma boxing and wrestling especially punjabis on the world stage
