Once again, you've exposed your love for boxers over boxing. Rhetorical question: Why must you compare box(ers) in order to appreciate box(ing)?:confused:
I love guitar, but I'm not gonna get into the dumb spiel of someone telling me Jimi Hendrix is the best that ever lived.
He never did arpeggios, never did harmonic minor scales, mixolydian to dorian modes. Yet those who do that today, never created. Never figure out that feedback could be controlled. To this day their sounds come from digital sound processors-aka computer generated peddles. Jimi Created a masterpiece with a wah-wah peddle and volume....followers pefected this.
Put that back to boxing. & here is what you have: Wladimir & his era..aint created a damn punch. not a new set of footwork, jack, nanda zilch, douhnut. Bigger muscles, better vitamins dont make the inner being any more daring or warrior-like Intangibles wont come from vitamins or workout equipment anymore than a guitar player with 10 thousand dollars worth of equipment will ever pack the house of a Jimi Hendrix or Carlos Santana who captivate us not with super duper scales, but their soul placed into every note, every string thats bent.
John Sullivan, James Corbett ,Jack Johnson , Sam Langford, Benny Leonard Ray Robinson: them boys gave us the uppercut, overhand, jab, hook. Them boys created footwork..
Aint shit been created since then.
So why would I want to compare a creationist vs a perferctionist?
Simple, unless I am a fan of boxers, not boxing.
I partially take back my comment on your intellect. You're knowledageble, just not wise...yet.

Jimi Hendrix was the MAN. Hendrix would KTFO of Wladimir and Vitali in 2 rounds tops. Jimi Hendrix would WAH_WAH the shite out of Golove-butt in 3 rounds and he would REVERB the PISS out of Kovalev.

He would chop him down with the edge of his hand.

Re: What did Joe Frazier have that Rocky Marciano didn't?
that's easy to answer, great opposition that WEREN'T past their prime, the fact that his 4 losses only come to two Hall of Famers says it all, the best win on his resume is against an undefeated loud mouthed GOAT, who went on to shock the world time and time again, while Marciano's greatest win is against an ancient broken down version of the only man who can really compete with Ali for GOAT status, apples and oranges really
