      You can't compare eras.I know he's a legend,but honnestly Robinson was hittable against short slow bulls fighters.

      I think skill wise,modern greats are more skilled.

        You mean when he was almost 40 years old? Yeah, most fighters are hittable at that point.

              Which skills exist now, specifically, that did not in 1950? 1940? 1930? Which of those are fight-changing in their value?

                Based only on skills I might still have him at one. With maybe Willie Pep ahead.....that's a pretty big maybe.
