It's not like these guys were fighting world beaters every time out. Nobody can do that.
Of course. I mean why say anything good about anyone prior to the primedonna era? They were all scrubs. Unlike the little spoiled brats today that can barely make it past 4 rds before they are gassed and I'd like to see one of these posers today fight 49 sparring partners a year. People act as if everyone today can fight a pace equal to Floyd and Manny. Sorry but in order to see fights that even resemble a fight in most cases takes watching a domestic card with fighters nobody has heard of. Most title fights and ppv events today are complete duds and mismatches. I bet Jeanette v Mcvy was quite the sparring session. In addition people look at records and dismiss opponents not realizing that these people lost because they fought every other week and when you do that, at times you lose to lesser men.

Carry on
