I guess there was a box fashion trend in the early 90's which was that a great fighter had to have great physical looks so many of our present veterans experienced over-charged training techniques before with different fitness gurus - Evander Holyfield is a striking example of that - they all payed in the ring for disregarding sparring that much too but ( and there's always a but) on the flipside, they over-developed the ability to survive punishment more... Then, there's this matter that most of our brand new or rising stars feel intimidated to trade toe to toe with veterans cause they have the pictures of these tough veterans in the back of their minds and they tend to make best use of their youth and just out-land their elders, the problem for the youngsters is that they can get in trouble if they don't learn how to overcome difficulties before and put on a 2nd gear - just to finish with, Miguel Cotto took best knowledge of the R. Torres ( and so did Ricardo) and D. Corley fights to overcome Zab Judah now.
