    Spence looked good against Danny and Ugas. That's with 18 months layoff and then 14 months lay off. That's impressive!

    That was years after Crawford got tired of trying to force the fight, while PBC/Spence avoided the topic altogether by ignoring him & not even having any dialogue concerning him whatsoever.

    Crawford is pushing 35 years of age, that's not prime is the welterweight division.

    Uh, this is the modern era with modern nutrition, this isn't 1965. It's not like he's been inactive either, Crawford has received almost no damage in his career, undefeated, is 13-0 with 12 knockouts in his last 13 title fights now and been on the top 5 p4p for nearly a decade. They're both 1 and 2 in the division, undefeated, in all the top 10 p4p rankings for years now and this is for all the belts, if this doesn't excite you then idk what to tell you. Watch Tennis.

    Oh yeah that's right,,the ,,,,modern era,, where age is just a number. Saw that on a metamucil commercial.

    Good thing Ray Robinson fought long ago, he'd get beaten up today by these supermen

    He's pretty close to prime. He's doesn't fight frequently and he's not taken much punishment besides being badly wobbled by Gamboa and dropped by EK.

    Too many posters have a stunning lack of awareness for the advances in nutrition and technology that has lead to a record high life expectancy. People today are bigger, stronger, healthier, and barring unfortunately genetic dispositions, can lead a long and healthy life just by eating well. They seem to think that the older generation fighters were made of Teflon and would walk through the fighters of today. I mean Ray Robinson went 14-0 in one year with 4 of those fights taking place in the span of 3 months. He must have fought all killers! LOL!

    In the USA life expectancy is actually dropping fairly rapidly. It was 76.1 in 2021: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/...ne – 77.0 to 76.1,its lowest level since 1996.

    It'll probably recover to pre-pandemic levels, but I think the US's growing obesity problem is actually halting the progress nutrition and medical advances are making.

    Yeah. Heart disease, obesity, and diabetes. Food is healthier, cleaner, and more nutritious than ever, but the availability and variety of insanely sugary drinks, candies, and snacks is more accesible than ever.

    But your average person who sits at home eating chips and watching tv all day is obese. How can both things be true?

    Medical science. We can keep people alive today, for decades, that would have croaked just 50 years ago. They can barely wipe their own ass, but they’re living longer. That’s the weak genetics. The strong genetics would live to 90 in any era.

    You mean this newfangled stuff called food, Dan? Must've been tough for guys like SRR and Jake, having to sustain theyselves on bonbon tè.

    Here in the mighty, gleaming, facility-laden, Jetsons-like twenty-first century, SSR rose from obscurity to concussively topple the P4P Picasso with the introduction of a state-of-the-art, high-tech diet of rat. Uh...


    :lol: Spence KO2 Robbie. If he's playing with his food, obviously.

    Are those two frauds actually willing to face each other, or they are just like Ward and Dirrell?
