    LMAO fighters like Yoko Gushiken and Fighting Harada, or Nicolino Locche, or even Jimmy Ellis(HW) would dominate the **** out of there respective division.

        So the Thrilla in Manila doesn't exist for you, huh? Perhaps you should join a knitting forum instead, I don't think boxing is for you.

          Thread starter lacks true knowledge. Go back to 15 round fights, 2-3 a month, and same day weigh ins. Not to mention REAL Corruption back in the day, but you wouldn’t know what shaped today because you’re too ignorant to review history.

            Most eras were on some sort of PEDs..M.Ali was on amphetimines for stamina etc...is that bad ? No bc they are being paid to win and perform. Today is just crazier but overall not so much different if you know what you are looking at like Duarn admitting injecting steroids in himself so PEDS aren't new.


            On the era itself ? Well todays fighters are better trained athletes they are harder to deal with and get younger by advancing quicker . Were they mentally stronger pre 90's …... ? Probably not but they are more well balanced now and have more areas covered ,its a deceptive thing and a personal preference but the current eras is full of untapped potential moreso globally .


            IMOP no eras has proven more efficient more then the HW'stodays ,they are averaging 6'5 and are much more athletic ,this has to count in the REAL world ,theres literally 50 top guys who could slug it out and we have a good decade of HW fights at hand,this should be great to see what unfolds.

              Those guys would get bodied hard by the modern fighters of today, most definitely.

                My dude; you're not supposed to have thrilla in manila type fights. BOxing is about HITTING and NOT GETTING HIT!

                  Man get that nostalgia **** out of your AZZ BOII. 15 rounds against who? Legit taxi drivers? Modern fighters could easily go 15 rounds with modern nutrition n training, most definitely.

                    You failed to mention anything about 2-3 fights per month or same day weigh ins; in your lackluster rebuttal son
