    How are they physically superior?? people of then are the same as people of now..
    Unless evolution is making humans stronger I wouldn't see why or how we are supposed to be stronger then athletes of then.

    Only difference is that there weren't roids back then..

        i think part of it had to do with the social and industrial climate of those times. technology was barely advancing enough to make lives easier therefore, people were just really tough back then. a lot of the jobs that we have robotic machines doing today were manually done back then. I think we, as society, have just become soft and our genetic make up has evolved into a physically or mentally weaker state.

          People don't watch the new episodes and claim they have fallen off.. they had a low period but a lot of the new **** I have watched is starting to come up again.

            i dont mean genetically

            i mean with todays knowledge of sports nutrition and strength training you would think our atheletes are stronger, faster etc. look at kobe or chris paul and compare them to basketball players in the 20s. or our football players today

                The difference is the type of fight and how the sport has changed. Knowing a fight can go as long as it has to slows the pace down a lot and conserving energy becomes huge. Think of watching somebody in their physical prime fight like B-Hop did against Calzaghe or something. Somebody could fight that type of fight for many, many rounds.

                  this makes sense

                  i remember hearing how those native americans used to be able to run for miles and miles without gettin tired

                  i think today were are faster and stronger, but endurance/stamina-wise they were superior

                    It was the Inca messenger runners who would run messages from city to city.. their lung capacity and endurance was insane.. they didn't even stop for brakes.

                      I think we just need some more old school, Ann Wolf-tie a heavy bag to the back of a truck- type method of training. It worked for James Kirkland.
