    Joshua has terrible proportions. His upper body is too big, and his quads are too big compared to his lower legs. He looks ridiculous.

    Human error goes both ways numbnuts. Fact is Owens ran 10.2 with **** footwear on slower tracks. Give a prime Owens today's shoes on the faster tracks and there is already guaranteed improvement. Not to mention the performance enhancing drugs (legal and illegal) that all top sprinters are on.

    So basically, the only way athletes have got better is by cheating?

    I think he might be referring to someone like Shannon Briggs, Frank Bruno etc.

    I think the standard has to go up with the average boxer but a lot is to do with popularity and that too, the exceptional athletes from way back would be good today but things I'd say improve
