Class in session for Old School Skill Deniers ..like moneytheman!!!!!!!

Because technical evolution does not occur overnight and the rate of development is not linear.

Eras improve one after the other and of course, certain fighters who were technically ahead of their time or could compensate with superior athleticism or size, may have enjoyed some amount of success against later generation boxers.

But that does not change the reality of skill, size and athleticism constantly improving since the beginning of the sport.

Also, 90s Foreman was far bigger and stronger, more experienced and just a better technician overall than 70s Foreman. That version would have battered 1974 Ali.

This whole thread is an exercise in logical fallacies by deluded nostalgists

I saw where several subpar posters are lamenting your loss on NSB. You should not torture them. Go back.

Apparently some take the opening post too seriously! It's not really the result of "dumb logic", as Willow of course is too knowledgeable to think, that anything can be "proven" one way or the other, playing this kind of association game.

It should of course not be seen as anything other than a fun exercise - that was supposed to intrigue our minds!
