Did old school fighters have more testosterone in their system?

most american men have lower testosterone then our fathers and grandfathers. modern wheat, dairy, sugar and watching porn does that to you. but those factors are just a part of why theres a lack of great american fighters especially.

 

I blame a lack of poverty for the decline and fall of American boxing.

 

What was Jeffries weight lifting routine?

 

Yep, too many food stamps is the problem.

 

Because that's the only way out of poverty.

 

Jeffries is sparring in the video with Joe Choynski who ko'd Jack Johnson in the third round.

 

Wouldnt be shocked at all. Not sure what chest hair has to do with anything, but all the processed crap and food filled with hormones and estrogene definitely plays a part. Then theres the lazy lifestyle most people live sitting around on the tube for 5-6 hours a day. Boys are discouraged from being boys: tag is "too mean and competitive", football and wrestling is banned, fighting used to get you detention now you usually just get expelled so most young men have twitter battles or attack in packs of 6 vs 1 outside school or worse, bring a gun.

Despite all the ymcas, planet fitnesses, dojos and mma gyms available at decent prices the average person just doesnt bother trying to stay healthy or quits after a few weeks. There is an alarming rise in single parenthood, which means more young men being raised with terrible standards and lacking a masculine identity. And the cycle continues.

 

good post. the way weve modified all the natural foods we use to eat is really changing how we develop. i first started puberty in the late 70s so ive seen the difference in the age and rate of generations after me going through the same thing, not just physically, but psychologically and emotionally.
even the old people are different. the octogenarians when i was a kid were much sturdier than i see today. sure, we may be living longer, but it seems that we are just extending the life of a weaker animal.

 

testosterone is bad for the prostate, and bad for the soul too.

 

Men today are wimps. Even for competitive individuals there's no need to be competitive in sports when they can be competitive with their computor games or whatever they're called.

 

Football isn't banned. What are you even talking about?

And there's nothing wrong with being raised by a single parent.

 

of course there is, its a huge disadvantage.

 

No there isn't.

 

ok, you win, a mom can set the behavioural cues of both a female role and male role without causing any confusion in the child and not appearing psychotic herself.
