      You think everyone back then fought exactly the same, were all alcoholic bums and that all of todays are 10x better, Nuthuggery at its best indeed.

        Im done with this convo, two or three idiots in here who are stuck in their beliefs and haven't got a clue about the Evolution of Sports.


        Comparing old fighters to current ones then saying OH HE WILL BEAAT HIM!! is just silly.

        Todays Pace/Standards/Testing/Level of Fighting is so much different than it was back then that its just ****** to make a statement that "he will wipe the floor"

        Do you know for sure that the Rock would lose to Tyson, Lewis etc, which is what you said?

            If they were both alive and same age today and had same training its a toss up. Its like asking if the 100m runner from 1940 would win against Usain Bolt without todays training.

            I cant say he will win or lose.

              5 tops, but Foster actually started his pro career in 61, so he's not one of these drunken bums.

                So do the Superbowl Champions Green Bay Packers of Superbowl #1 beat the last 3 superbowl winners?

                Compare the greatest NFL team that won a superbowl decades ago and put them into a game against superbowl champs within last 5 years. Do you see how different the game is? Or are you stuck in your past is better attitude?

                Have you read any sport theory books? Or just saying HEY THEY WILL WIN FOR SURE!

                  You underrate just how TOUGHT the old NFLers were. They were some nasty ass dudes. These primadona's today would get their shyt pushed in. They didnt have all these safety rules. They didnt have all the padding, etc.

                    Hahahaha, Im done with you. Go read some books written by people with actual knowledge on sports. Your making alot of assumptions without any knowledge. I guess older = better in your mind. Im done with this topic. Theres a reason that sports are played so diffirently today than in the past. Do you know why? Because sports have evolved to know what technique or strategy is better and they build off it. Theres a reason they dont play the same way in the NFL today as they did 40 years ago. If it was truly better then they would still be playing the same style.

                    Peace out Older = Better nuthuggers, go read a few books.

                      So why were you taking about some of these guys getting knocked out in round 1?


                      Its not though is it, athletics is a different sport, it requires different intelligible's, at the time they fought, who do you think was more athletic outta a fat, 40 yeard old George Foreman, and a Michael Moorer in his 20's?
