Stop with the nostalgia, stop overrating fighters from the past!

[AJ's Boy]

Dude, you are ignorant. You've completely lost your mind if you think AJ beats Ali. Protein shakes do not make you a superior fighter.

Lol stop it. You're a dumb ass who ignores simple sports science and physics and you call me ignorant?

Boxing in the 1960s was a primitive joke compared to today. Ali would lose badly to modern Cruiseweights like Usyk.

Giant Heavys today like Wilder, Fury and Joshua make Foreman and Frazier look tiny. Ali was great in his time, which was 50 years ago. He stands no chance today.

It's fine to respect and miss past fighters. But a lot of people automatically pick past fighters over the newest generation of fighters today, which is extremely ****** and disturbing.

Reality is, boxing's just like any other sport, its athletes are constantly evolving and getting better. The fastest runner in the world 20 years ago won't even make the top 10 today. Training, nutrition, genetics, and coaching are constantly improving in every sport.

Prime Cotto is not beating Crawford or Spence. Prime Ali or Holmes is not beating Anthony Joshua, lol. A lot of Ali and Hagler "fans" have never even watched any of their fights in its entirety.

A LOT can change in the sport in just 10 years. The old timers have had their time. We need to embrace the future, appreciate and respect the NOW. Active fighters today like Crawford, Spence, Canelo, and Joshua are the best there has ever been.

Thanks for the laughs, clearly a youngster if u think Spence, Canelo and AJ are the best ever.

Another fool who ignores science, facts, and physics, and prefers to talk with nostalgia.

You have a point there, remember many of the champions in the past were on steroids, that wouldn't fly now.

The reason people glorify the fighters of the past is because the best fought the best, not so today. Today you have alot of fighters being built up by media and just trying to make the most money possible the least difficult way possible out of their made up hype. Not all of today's fighters are like that but a lot of them and there are good ones but its hard to tell who and how good they are.

[Fists_of_Fury]

If Gamboa can make Crawford do the stanky leg then prime Cotto could knock Crawford out. Crawford has fought nobody so how can you act like he can beat fighters that fought and beat better opposition than him? This era is weak as hell and full of hype jobs like GGG, Crawford, and Lomachenko being top p4p fighters with trash resumes.

Please tell me you think Canelo would beat Hagler.
