Video does prove these fighters as good or better than most modern fighters. And their resumes and amount of times they fought most certainly make them greater in many if not most comparisons to they're modern counterparts. This is no slight to modern fighters, only the truth.
What he did doesn't work he provided people dominating people in their era's
My question was and has always been using advanced movement that means as many angles and not stiff as they did from 70s-now
It doesn't exist as I always said it didn't even exist with Robinson cause he wasnt as advanced as ali who made his style better
I know im right video proves I am

Yet you haven't proven anything about movement being better, and continually ignore the reason fighter such as Louis fought the way he/they did.Last edited by Ascended; 08-23-2022, 11:52 AM.

Back in the day fighters often fought every week,it stands to reason that having that amount of fights meant that they honed their skills.Today guys are challenging for titles with less that 20 fights under their belts,The big thing now is keeping a clean sheet ,so they aren't matched with opponents that will pose them problems,potential banana skins that might beat them and reduce their marquee value.In the eras I've mentioned there were 10 times as many clubs and boxers as today.Fighters back them learned their craft and they did it by facing a variety of styles,swarmer,defensive cuties,runners,boxer punchers,southpaws,by the time they got their title shot they were thoroughly grounded and confident they could handle any style.
Today boxing is dying, MMA pulls more fans.I've seen it at the arenas I go to ,the fans are casuals ,there with their girlfriends,they don't even watch the supporting bouts and couldnt name two other fighters on the bill.The then heavyweight champion Wilder and American couldnt even fill up the 18,000 Barclays Center in his own country!
I've said nothing hypocritical you've just misinterpreted what I've said.Last edited by Ivich; 08-23-2022, 01:01 PM.JAB5239

That doesnt work with me never has when you give a deep point but the logic makes no sense wirh it
Or did you mean trying to be deep as meaning when they fought in 20s-50s they made the opposition look as bad well that doesn't work either since it is no one who existed back then who did that unless you wanna talk about dempsey or louis and even those 2 didnt look as good as 70s-90s fighters running through there bum opposition
The 70s-90s made bums look way worst cause of their advances in skills and ran though them way more brutally and with less shots

I seen enough of those dudes to know in general those era's they mostly fought the same as others in each said era meaning the 40s fought like each other and 20s fought like each other it wasn't much variety in styles and all of these eras are stiff
They wouldn't let none of those dudes from any of those era's you named make pro in 70s they would need to advanceLast edited by Ascended; 08-23-2022, 01:20 PM.
