@battenwood you make a good point about the modern athlete being scientifically trained to be superior, nobody was just a boxer back then. The one thing i would disagree on is your thoughts on height advantage. As an ex heavyweight fighter myself i found that 99.8% of people over 6ft4 had lost their mobility. When i fought opponents taller them myself 6ft3 they had lost their mobility and speed. Lennox and foreman were the exceptions. Chisora exposed the Klits, they nothing special.

@Maitland99 - Good guess, but that is annoncer Billy Jordan.

I could be wrong but ... that looks very much like the aged John L Sullivan standing in the ring and before the fight begins. He attended many fights long after his retirement and was often presented to the crowd.

Just to put things in perspective...
Burns fought as a heavyweight at 5'7"
Jeffries, the referee, towers over Burns and Squires at 6'0" and Sqires was 5'10 1/2"
Both Klitschkos are over 6' 5" as was Lennox Lewis
Obviously, technique and training methods have both improved immensely over the last 100 years. The old timers were mostly laborers and farmers and were naturally strong and tough but the modern athlete is scientifically trained to be far superior physically.

Squires was a stiff,it shows how poor boxing was in Australia was then(With Squires having such a great record)

Packolorentay, the ref was James J Jeffries - former heavyweight champ who came out of retirement to get soundly beaten by Jack Johnson 3 years later (1910).
Jeffries retired in 1905 and pretty much ballooned in weight to 300lbs.
