Not all guys fought this way. Take Benny Leonard in the 1920's. Now he is as advanced as any 2024 boxer.
In general you are correct though, the technique is better now as in posters during the boxing scene's lifetime. But things like toughness and stamina at heavyweight have suffered a decline.

Which Ben were you talking about? Obviously, that isn't the same one I posted; looks horrible compared.

Originally posted by mrbig1I'm high from yesterday. With this fight there is not wrong answer. We all know that Toney could be fat and lazy. When Toney is on both mind and body was one of the most skilled fighters I've seen in years. Sam Langford is one of the most respected p4p champions of all time. I would pick Toney because he was so hard to hit. I'm about 55% sure. peace.

Is it anybody on video from Sam's era in this class or another fighter as advanced as this guy tone fought?,is Sam, and that guy he fought as advanced as this guy Toney fought, or Toney himself?
If not That means your version of Sam doesn’t exist. This one is trash and the fighters he fought compared to even that guy tone fought
So yes, the correct answer is tone wins, and easily, why you brought up that odd quote of how tone showed up fat makes no sense at all, since that version isn't needed as this version was already way too advanced for all classes, Sam or anybody else in that novice-like class back then.
