Classify Argentine boxer

[Armando Esteban Quito]

Marcos Maidana.
Looks extremely atypical for an Argentine. I thought he was of Filipino descent. He doesn't look mestizo to me. What do y'all think?

[Armando Esteban Quito]

I thought he looked Filipino .

[Awebo]

I thought he looked Filipino . That too, but he's most likely of Guarani descent. I think they are of the Lagid subtype.

Predominatly lagide amerindian with minor med admixture.

Either way, the guy is tough and hits like a mule. Great fighter.

The Kayapo are pure lagids without mixing, they live on the border of the Amazon region with the cerrado (Brazilian savanna).

Guarani are "brazilids" no "lagid".

lagids exist only on Brazil
Lies!

LAGID

Indianid type. Medium to small, moderately stocky dolicho-mesocephals native to the mountainous areas of southeastern Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and the Brazilian jungle. The Lagid type is characterized by strong supraorbital bulge, a skeletally robust face and broad cheekbones, and an absence of clear facial flatness. The eyelids are narrow, but there are few obvious Mongolid eye features. The nose is broad, straight or concave, with a clearly retracted root, the hair is smooth or wavy and the skin is light brown with a yellow or coppery tone. The absorption of a local australiform strain, the presence of which predates the Mongolid immigration, may be involved (cf. Luzia).


BRAZILID

Indianid type. Small, stocky mesocephals of the jungles around the Amazonian basin, including the adjacent highlands, along the Brazilian coast, in Venezuela, Guyana and the West Indies. Brazilids are characterized by relatively steep, broad foreheads, oval faces, soft features, mostly narrow eyelid slits, but not particularly Mongolid eye features, medium-broad to broad high-rooted nose, smooth or slightly wavy hair and yellowish light brown to brown skin.

Maidana fits the description of Lagid.

Guarani are an Amazonian tribe that migrated to coast later they expanded inland, speak a language of the Tupi-Guarani linguistic trunk that is typical of brazilids.
