    Then you should be aware of average male condition, that is much worse than in Sullivan's era.

    Perhaps in America it is, given how many obese people there are, but not in Europe. I mean not in every part of it.

    Sullivan doesn't have enough skill to beat (modern) drunks in a bar, you heard it right here folks.

    I'm from Poland but it doesn't matter. You can search for any scientific data related to human fitness across decades and you'll always find one thing - people live longer but are in worse condition on average.

    Why do you even dispute that? Are you not aware of how obese children are nowadays?
