If you look at the Pacific Ocean from "top" (i.e. get a globe and rotate it), you'll see that it effectively covers almost entire hemisphere. So there is no surprise that most of the land has no antipodal land. The more interesting question is why initial continent, Pangea existed as such instead of the bunch of the smaller continents, which would seem more logical and likely.
EDIT: also, do we know if there were no other continents that submerged?
