@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing Name me a fighter from the 1920s that could hit and not get hit, wilder has amazing power but other than that, his only good win is against Luis Ortiz who was how old? He was able to compete with fury based on his power which is commendable still
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing Even Ali said Joe louis was stiff and stationary, I’ve watched Joe Louis fight he definitely had power but I’m sorry you need great skill alongside power to beat a guy sized like fury. Louis wouldn’t be able to do it
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing Nothing magic happened, advancement happened, time happened, people got better and if you can’t fathom that then I don’t know what to tell you, maybe tweet less and get in the ring?
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing You’re right the basic text book fundamentals are the same but the fundamentals have also gotten better and it’s more of a art behind it, name me a fighter from the 1920s that could hit and not get hit 🤷🏾♂️
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing They wasn’t as skillful they was just more durable and in better shape, they was REAL fighters but other than that, boxing had advanced significantly… Ali would tell you the exact same thing if he was here, he already said it in a interview
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing When louis and usyk have completely different styles, usyk’s elusiveness and skillset and ability to move around is what allowed him to beat fury, louis doesn’t possess that
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing If you’ve actually read what I said during this argument I’ve only mentioned fighters from the 20s-40s being less skilled. It’s not the fact you can’t compare, it’s the fact you’re trying to say because Joe Louis is the same height as usyk that he can beat fury
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing Nah it’s definitely not as good at the 60s-90s etc but the heavy weights back in the 40s and backwards definitely aren’t better than the heavy weights of today lol, the technique is completely different. Wilder fights like a guy from the 20s/30s and his power only got him so far
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing You can’t compare louis and usyk because the styles are completely different, usyk is a southpaw, louis is orthodox, louis is smaller in height, usyk is way more skilled and lateral, louis isn’t. You can’t use that argument at all
@DaveyMaccy@Sourceofboxing Joe louis was past his prime and more of a stationary target than fury and smaller than fury too.. Jess Willard isn’t fury, come on the skill level has increased by a lot since then
@DaveyMaccy @Cr4fty3agle @Sourceofboxing A lot of ufc guys today would give boxers back then problems lol, marciano wasn’t known for his technical ability
@Box2p4pRank@boxingflicks@OwnedByTheVille@BBCxaye@AminBoxing1718@theking_tea613 Nah I know inoue is great, he’s a once in a lifetime type of fighter, I didn’t know he fought donaire with bad eyes tho but kudos to him for finding a way, all I’m saying is people act like it’s a crazy take that a great fighter like shakur is having his skills compared to inoue
