    Why are so called "boxing experts" so damn bias to old fighters?

    Its annoying to see old guys like Rocky Graziano shoved at the end of the boxing history list, he would own roy.

      Fighters these days have it to easy! back when there was one belt and 15 rounds, and you could be fighting every week Now they were tuff fighters. Fighters like Monzon, gavlian, robinson, la motta and archie moore would of walked through all todays top fighters with out much trouble. Respect the old school!!! And fighters like jack johnson, stanley Ketchel and sam langford well there a diffrent type of breed all togeather

        I use to argue with my grandfather all the time because he would tell me most guys in the old school would whoop the new school fighters. As i got older and older, i am starting to agree more and more. They would fight every month or every other month, and stay active. The new school is money hungry and ducks a lot of fighters.

          wht do you expect, we are more intellegent, we dont want to have to chance ourselves to a knockout or a beating possiblity without a well deserved reward

            For me most fighters now are all for the money, not the passion or history, Just the dollar thats why the game isnt what it was 20 or 40 years ago. No fighters like takeing chances no more
