Very true. That's a big problem w/ HW that people sadly ignore. With something like Jr Welter, the next weight class is 5% away in terms of weight. W/ HW you've got a MASSIVE disparity in size between some competitors and it's hardly realistic to compare generations since many of the HW greats would either be bulking to compete with the new standard, or cutting down to fall into another weight class and thus not even HW's at all.

205lb Joe Frasier was one of the greatest HW's ever. Do we lose any respect for him because he couldn't compete with a 6'7" monster?? Of course not, we know he wouldn't be fighting as a HW today. People who argue about that sort of thing don't "get it" to begin with.

We got bigger HW's now. But, could they compete against Giants?

“While we were in the sand hills, scouting the Niobrara country, the Pawnee Indians brought into camp some very large bones, one of which the surgeon of the expedition pronounced to be the thigh-bone of a human being. The Indians claimed that the bones they had found were those of a person belonging to a race of people who a long time ago lived in this country; that there was once a race of men on the earth whose size was about three times that of an ordinary man, and they were so swift and powerful that they could run along-side of a buffalo, and, taking the animal in one arm, could tear off a leg and eat the meat as they walked.” *

Agreed.

If it really came down to it and the fantasy fights were real and people were betting with their hard-earned money I think they would change their tune.

The bookies would most likely make some pretty unspectacular modern Super-Heavies a betting favourite over a lot of the stand-out heavies of yesteryear.

... It's just stupid comparing the HWs up the '70s with some of today's giants.
In my book, Ali is The Greatest and SRR is TBE...

Don't ever let bullies see you cry my man

The OP would be impaled by the Romanian, like Vlad Tepes impaled Muslim Turks!

Can't rep you again yet but as a fan of quirky western history, I just wanted to give that a nod and

Thanks. I don't doubt the story at all.

There have been giant skeletons found all over the world.

Fury, Wlad, and others would be eaten by those Giants, with double sets of teeth.

So much we don't know, and can't explain.
