People were tougher back then, could fight with serious injuries for 15 rounds, and still win a fight. Tough as nails. Their toughness alone will give them a very good chance of beating some of these marshmallows today despite their enormous size ....there is no way that Anthony Joshua or Tyson Fury could take the kind of punishment for example that the old timers could take, they would fold, they would quit, even Mike Tyson for the amount of punishment he took said he could never take the amount of punishment that for example Muhammad Ali could take and keep fighting and that he was willing to die in the ring. This bigger more advanced generation of fighters is not willing to die in the ring and they would quit when the times got really tough like in the first Ali Frazier fight for example or for example in Rocky Marciano and Joe Walcott that was one of the most brutal wars of attrition I have ever seen in the ring or you take Aaron prior and Alexis arguello and there is no way this newer breed of fighters is going to dig down that deep and take that kind of punishment for 15 rounds and keep getting stronger and stronger.
