Basically I am summing up the old days vs today : my point in doing this is bc I cant stand wyhen people try to say so and so of today is better than so and so of 30s-70s, I am one of these fans,writers who does this so im not innocent in this but after thnking a lot about it recently heres why I think its hard to compare: now that I think we have fighters nowadays who are unbelievably talented and veruspecial to watch but since they fight in an era where money and egos comw first its on;y hurting their legacy imo, but at least they'll be wealthy but it sucks for us the fans
Old Days vs. Today.
1. 15 rd fights. 1. 12 rd fights
2. 8 weight classes 2. 17 weight classes (very watered down)
3. 1 World champ 3. 4 "world champs" or titles per weight class
per weigh class
4. each fighter would fight 4. Nowadays champs fight 1 or 2 times a year
7 times a year and that's
on the low side.
5. Best always fought best 5. between the promoters and fighters
not wanting to face the best or work
together its impossible to compare to the
glory days
