Glorified Oldies....

HAHA another typical NSB thread... Boxers fought far more often, and experience is one of the key factors which determines proficiency in boxing. There are so many tricks and techniques that have been lost... Fighters were tougher, far far more heart. As well conditioned if not better. Even if you think Pac would beat Greb H2H for example, Greb simply achieved so so much more than Pac ever will. He beat 21 HOFers. Pacquiao has beaten about 3 or 4, most of whom were shot to sh1t.

Sure, in Head to Head most of the modern guys would tool fighters from the first 50 years of the 1900s. But most of them can't hold a candle to what Greb had accomplished in his career. In fact, only about 3 fighters ever actually can. __________________ hell look who he was fighting....none of his opponents would even be journey men today.they'd be club fighters at best.

Jeshhhh! 16 year old boxing experts! naw im 30 and that sh1t was horrible

Sam langford looked like Tim Bradley

Agreed. Training and nutrition has come a long way since then. Even with boxing being behind all of the other major sports it still is much more improved from the olden days. But be warned people get really offended on this topic. nutrition maybe... rice or chicken back in the day for some unknown reason may have less carbo or protein compared to the rice and chicken today...:) but training? a lot of the old-skool fighters had more "boxing tricks" in the bag so to speak... a lot of fighters today (save PBF and hopkins) doesnt even have a good "inside game" if u know what i mean...

Jeshhhh! 16 year old boxing experts!
