    teddy atlas said on fnf that pacman can't stand up to the old time boxers of the 20's and 30's. the fighters back the fought at a much higher freaquency, and fought each other often. that is the argument that makes them greater then today's fighters? i think he's dead wrong. i am a strength and conditioning coach, and todays athletes would always come in in better condition. i say pacmac woops any fighter from that erra. he is as skilled, as well coached, but he comes in at a fitness level fighters from yesterday have never seen.
