Do you think fighters from 1900-1930 look good on film?

    A friend of mine insisted that since fighters of the 1920s often boxed while holding their hands low, they were not as technically advanced as many modern fighters. But a number of the old-time fighters who held their hands low often could slip punches very well and were in a better position to throw punches in comparison to many of their modern counterparts.
