Henry Armstrong's and Joe Fraziers style

[them_apples]

Would it be successful today? Refs seem to break up fighters immediately to get air time or something...This type of style could give certain fighters serious problems as it completely nullifies a lot of things

[Rossman]

Both would be successful today, perhaps dominant.

I know they would, but would they be allowed to do their thing? Especially Armstrong, he would tuck his head under the oponents chin so they couldnt see what was going on below

Depends on the ref. The good refs would let them fight....Sven Ott's ref? probably not

[Humean]

Armstrong would probably be warned for the use of head more often but he'd probably still be able to fight now the way he did then. He just wouldn't be as successful now.

What about Floyd Mayweather's ref? in my head I'm still hearing Kenny Bayless shout break.

[SlySlickSmooth]

Just put Smoger in as ref.

theres not too many boxers now that could deal with that awkward pressure. it would nulliify their style completely. I man even Ray Robinson, 6ft tall give or take with his guns couldn't put him away. Look how small thurman became when Guerrero smothered him inside.

You're dreaming. Some refs would be shouting break every 5 seconds. If he was allowed to fight his fight he would absolutely have the same success, he would be just as dominant. Do you know how many guys can't fight inside today? Armstrong would have the time of his life bulling them around the ring and wailing away in close.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Both would dominate, especially Armstrong at 135-140..

Frazier would probably have a tougher time because of wlad
