Marquez "I Cant Fight Without a Hyperbaric Chamber."Grandpas-"Technology Dont Matter"

[Die Antwoord]

I just think its funny how a top 10 p4p boxer talks about how he couldn't perform without modern technology. We see his workouts utilizing modern theories on fitness. We have all this evidence that modern athletes are far superior. However, old people still want to believe their part time fighting heroes could compete today. Its hilarious. I would have knocked Jack Johnson out, probably in 1 round.

Exactly bro. Green k sent. Sports evolution has not passed boxing by, no matter how much the HS mods want to pretend otherwise.

Definitely. Boxing and the workout techniques are highly evolved and I agree that fighters from 50+ years ago simply weren't in the type of shape fighters today are. The fighting technique today employed by the top fighters is also other worldly. Just the way Nacho trains his fighters it is martial arts like in the way it is highly evolved, fighters can not question his method, and a lot of reflex embedding so that the body reacts on its own.

100+ years of Boxing technique and training being handed down is as close as it gets to the movie version of martial arts that simply doesn't exist today with the same lifestyle

Although I probably would put a little less emphasis on the chamber when training at altitude.

Monte Barrett is one boxer who agrees with the TS and has said so many times. Utilizing modern training techniques, Barrett was able to raise his level at age 40 and defeat David Tua, twice, really.

Less rounds, less fights, less punching, less combinations, less fighters and more weight classes and titles. It's not hard to figure out training techniques are not any better today in spite of technology. Medicine, yes. Training methods, no.

This explains why perfectly, but Im sure most will not bother to read or just flat out ignore it.

How have training techniques not gotten better? From push ups, pull up and road work to all the things we have today such as plyometrics?

How are they better when the things I've pointed out are true? Do we need to bring in the slobs they have passing off as heavyweight contenders these days?

Can you refute anything in the article I provided?

45 round fight. Watch rounds 37-40 and their workrate, combinations, etc and try to tell me that Marquez's chamber gets him into better shape than these men in 1910. Most guys today in rounds 8 or 9 start looking like they do in the 39th.
