Why are many fighters in bad shape today?

It's just something I've noticed. Especially heavyweights but also some cruiserweights and lhws are in really bad shape. And I wonder, in this modern age of great training opportunities-why??

Not all of them are in bad shape though. Some just have that type of built. Juan Diaz is a good example.

Many people not just fighters are out of shape,lifestyle and diet.If you exercise but eat crap food you become out of shape.

They don't make use of those opportunities. For all the talk about the sport evolving, it seems like the boxers of the previous eras were far more dedicated to their craft than today's competitors, discounting some exceptions of course.

Partly with him in mind yes.

They got too spoiled and lazy. Earlier they had less luxuries and so they trained harder.
