Look at his physique or that of the US '68 Olympic team, and their times, then look at modern guys and their build & times, and you will see that most of it is down to training. Most of the guys back then weren't full time athletes, they were college athletes at the same time. I'll continue to go against the rest and say it hasn't evolved as dramatically in the last 50 years as some might say. Boxing that is. I still think the truly great boxers of the past would have found a way to win in the modern era, as would the best of modern times in the past.
