does anyone honestly doubt that technical skills have gotten worse in boxing?

    Modern fighters would probably be from the mid to late 60's on, with the exception of a few older fighters like SRR.

    The problem with your assessment though is you don't know **** about boxing.

    Name some fighters who you think are technical.

    Boxing is about skills and technique, not who can run the fastest or jump the highest.

    lol not one of those fighters date from before I was in high school, and Holyfield is still fighting TODAY. Seriously, do you think life began when you were born in 1998? Everybody over 30 is an old man from a bygone era? :lol:

    They all won world titles and most of they leagacy buliding fights happened in the 80's, just because they also spanned the early to mid 90's, does'nt change the fact that they were from the 80's.

    Name some fighters that you think are technical and break down their styles.

    I don't think you know what the **** you're talking about.

    you are saying nobody on your list was a champion in the 90s? i mean you cant get better than champion so you want to relegate the 90s to the challengers, correct?

    wtf? Is it my problem he doesn't know who JMM or Ricardo Lopez or James Toney or any of a couple dozen other fighters are? Some posts are so ******ed they deserve to be ignored.

    1. Holyfield was world champion in 86, his 80's career is a huge part of his legacy.

    2. I was'nt born in 98 :-(

    Who gives a ****, dummy? How the **** can you possibly be soooo thick as to think a fighter still fighting RIGHT NOW belongs to some ancient, not-modern era of boxing?

    It's **** like this that makes boxing boards frustrating sometimes.
