    ....would he likely be able to get the belts and become champion in each division or just is it too far removed for him?

    Srr is a product of his hard times though. Also lack of sports nutrition and modern training make it a different person.
    But hypothetically teleported into these divisions he destroys them all of course.
    How can you argue against the goat over these fight 1/2 times a year modern boxers?

    His only problem would be 160-168-175 pounds. These guys are mostly 1-2 weight divisions bigger by fight time.

    I think 160 would be his ceiling. But he could likely go down lower and rehydrate.

    135-160 he could probably dominate over the course of a career

    He would sit around while be avoided by everyone as seems to be the case these days.

    No way could SRR beat an elite cruiser, Usyk would have destroyed all of SRR`s opponents.

    His career would be decimated by "marination" and be notable for being ducked by all the big names.
