Would Wilder be a Prime Foreman's biggest kryptonite

[Madison Boxing]

you're watching old school heavyweights face other old school heavyweights. so you're judging their "greatness" based on the speed/strength/nutrition/recovery/supplements/training/drugs/etc of their time.

but all of those things advance over 30-40 years. guys like wilder, joshua, etc would absolutely dominate the top heavyweights of 30-40 years ago. it's evolution baby.

how would the best guards from 1948 have fared against michael jordan in 1988?

lol, wut? Prime Foreman KO's Wilder in the first round.

Fighters should be judged for their time. Humans evolve too quickly. Technology evolves too quickly. Nutrition evolves too quickly. Training techniques evolve too quickly.

Foreman would have NO CHANCE against Wilder. And that's not a knock against Foreman in any way. It's evolution baby.

So by that measure, SRL would have little chance against most modern boxers? Really?

Why would wilder be anyone's kryptonite. Not really special in any area.

Potential future events aside, he's just a big sloppy guy who scooped a belt and defended it against guys we've never heard of. Question seems very random.

I disagree with the evolution argument when it pertains to boxing.
Based off eye test, heavy weight boxers were much more skilled back in the day compared to the heavyweight boxers today. Even foreman, who was sometimes considered fundamentally flawed had better footwork than most boxers today. And dont get me started on defense.

Cant use basketball when the talent pool in basketball has grown immensely. Cant say the same about boxing.

Just watched Foreman vs Lyle. I think Wilder lays him out
