I do agree with you on that burley is perhaps the finest all around puglist to ever lace those gloves. But i just always hate how as boxing fans we always say that all the old timers would always kick the fresh bloods butt to hell and back. that would imply that boxing skill has regressed. if that is true then it really is depressing.

Granted the jab is a dying art, as are body punches but i blame those on the amature scoring system rather than talent and trainers.
