People are bigger and maybe even stronger these days due to better healthcare and nutrition etc HOWEVER if we hold such fights in the vaccume of time and space just based on skill and results from both fighters respective eras we will see that Pavlik would lose his fair share of fights vs the past greats.



And my FAVORITE question to people who think today's fighters are so much bigger and stronger is "Who would beat Ali?"....Lennox, Bowe, Wlad, Vitali ? All bigger and stronger than a prime Ali.....oh but all of a sudden the arguement changes doesn't it? Either Ali was just faaaaar too talented or someone would just belittle all the other fighters I just mentioned.
