The fighters from Robinson's era were fundamentally stronger because they fought more often. Most of todays stars couldn't even fight in their divisions if they had to weigh in the same day.
      i already told him that, and he calls it evolution, and compares boxing to football, and track lol

          Perhaps you should use a little logic when analyzing my posts.

          I wasn't comparing football and track to boxing as a sport.

          I was using examples to prove that Robinson, if he fought today, would not seem to be nearly as fast or strong as he was, when he fought in the 40's, which is absolutely true.

          I never said once, that he would be thrown around like a ragdoll in the ring. All that I'm implying is that, he would not have the same advantages over fighters today than when he had in the 40's. Which would make him a lot more beatable today than when he was back then.

              I know the sport very well.

              And instead of just saying "oh that's your opinion, you don't know boxing", why don't you actually give a rebuttal to the argument I just made?

              So here it is again:

              I was using examples to prove that Robinson, if he fought today, would not be seem to be nearly as fast or strong as he was, when he fought in the 40's, which is absolutely true.

              I never said once, that he would be thrown around like a ragdoll in the ring. All that I'm implying is that, he would not have the same advantages over fighters today than when he had in the 40's. Which would make him a lot more beatable today than when he was back then.
              Let's hear it.

                    im not gonna re-write what's already written above. i see that it's pointless, and it's a complete waste of my time. you can think whatever you want, cuz quite frankly i dont really care, just as much as you dont about what i think. so lets go our separate ways.

                    i enjoy having a discussion or debate with someone who knows this sport and can provide legit arguements and points which i dont think you can do either.

                    bye

                      Sounds like the talk of a beaten man.

                      What exactly in your previous posts directly addresses my argument? There is no rebuttal, hell there isn't even an argument from your end. All there is, is a bunch fallacious attacks and borderline name-calling.

                      bye.
