The guys who were big enough to be small modern heavyweights shouldn't be dismissed. But when I see comparisons of Marciano, Frazier, Patterson, just come on. Marciano and Patterson would be SMW's or light heavys in today's world, depending on how well they handled dehydration. Frazier would be a light heavy or a cruiser depending on how well he handled dehydration.

precisely and my continuous argument when discussing "Then vs. Now"... todays LW's cum WW's are yesteryears MW and in some case L-HW's too... example the 5'10 walked about at 170lbs or mor Khan.
