    This guy thinks the global population was larger way-back-when and that 6'6" muscular, coordinated 245lb athletes were commonplace way-back-when too.:-(

    No, I think there were more proffessional boxers back then, hence the bigger talent pool :good

    And i'm not speculating chap, I know.

    There are fewer licensed boxers now.

    There are fewer amature boxers now.

    There are fewer unlicenced bouts in the UK, for example.

    There are fewer boxers now.

    Actually more than in 2002, but fewer than at any other time in history.

    :good

    Best post in thread.

    I'm so sick of these teeny bopper fans who think Mike Tyson was Hercules.......................I watched his fights as they happened & I was impressed too but I can be realistic.

    Many of those early Tyson demolitions were against white fighters with afros in gym shorts. They resembled bouncers more than boxers. Anybody remember Steve Zouski? They play that KO regularly on ESPN Classic along with the Peter McNeeley travesty.
