    If you go back to Louis Ali Norton Foreman Frazier era the atg LHs that tried to win a HW title were getting blown out, today great LHs can go on and beat today's physical monsters as Holyfield did, that couldn't happen back in the day because HWs were nearly as fast, today the sheer size it the hammer not skills or boxing ability, size.

    Seeing as the size of the HWs today are huge 6'5" 260+ pounds and up and the numbers of this size in society is a lower number of people, what happens is the overall quality gets less and the few standouts dominate, the result is you still get the titles but they don't mean sht if you beat not much, when people argue the merits of great fighters its always gets down to who they beat, not today with HWs its about what titles they won, no great wins over greats just titles won from average fighters.

    The Klitschkos Fury Wilder etc are all average fighters just the best of their bunch which is overall terrible with massive size differences, if they were WWs or MWs they would all get blown out, I rarely watch HWs at all these days the majority just don't have the boxing ability I like to see.
    Agree about that that Middleweights lhws cruisers from 00s to today have good succes in heavyweight

          Prime Foreman beats both brothers back to back on the same night.
          Norton sparks both.
          Frazier is a 50/50 fight.
          Ali toys with both.

              I think the 70s guys were better technically on average, and had better fitness. But from 80s/90s onwards I feel like the average size of HWs increased and they all started being roided to shyt.

                Joe Joyce would probably be able to stop all guys Foreman stopped. he is actually stronger version of Foreman.

                  Joe Frazier - A chinny, featherfisted, chubby, punch bag, half-blind bum dwarf. Dereck Chisora today is a bigger, stronger, much tougher version of Joe Frazier. A "Super Frazier!" Elroy1

                      What separated ali from the others in his generation was his speed, the moment it left you could really see how bad of a boxer he was.

                      And what's wrong with posting a video? I get my boxing knowledge from watching fights, not from reading other people's opinions or from forums.
                      Cause video exposes these crazy pretend to be blind idiots the 70s look outdated just as i have always said
