    Who is to say that these guys do work as hard as say Rocky Marciano? Or Sugar Robinson?

    Just because they are modern does not make them better either.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Yes Master, the reverse can also be true, I'm not disputing that! If you need to hear it explicitly.

    Personally, I think the champs of all the eras work equally as hard and their were lazier than average guys in every era.

    Yes I did need to hear that acknowledgement as you have called legends in the sport fat, blind, shoe shiners and feather fisted.

    Yeah. And you have called contemporary top level boxers, fat, lazy, unskilled and unable to carry these old timers spit buckets! Don't be such a hypocrite!

    Never said anything like that ever but you carry on making false accusations if it keeps you happy.

    I was thinking more of the tough grind these boys had to go through outside of the ring just to bring food in their door.Aisde from their training which was minimal to some extents when compared to today.

    I think the closest we get to that kind of hunger and grit which breeds determination; nowadays would be some from south of the border in the States, some parts of Asia, Africa maybe, but they haven't forests they have to go out in and cut trees for 12 hours a day by hand, or roads to build,tunnels to dig by hand or quarry split all that stuff they used to have to do out in the elements rain or shine.

    I can explain it.
    But I cant understand it for you.
