[SplitSecond]

But do you think todays fighters are a little busy obsessing over diet and nutrition, weights etc when they should be a boxing gym learning?

I believe guys fought more at their natural weights and didnt have to get rid of all their water weight

There were still plenty of fighters back in the day who were pretty ripped

[sleazyfellow]

Del la hoya doesn't have the ripped muscular look, so it doesn't apply to 100% of the fighters today. Roberto duran also wasn't ripped like a monster(but he had problems with his weight).

Timoth Bradley

you are comparing white people to other races. Not to be racist about it but genetics plays a big role.

Roy Robinson was just as ripped as those punks. Although boxers nowadays tend to have more developed muscle tone.

Yeah, pretty good physique:

considering they didn't lift weights back then he must have been a strong SOB to have all that natural muscle.

Jack Johnson had one of the most incredible physiques I've ever seen. From his legs to his shoulders, he was a rare type for his time. Must have been from years of hard work and good genetics.

i agree... Jack Johnson had an incredible physique
