Is every top heavyweight boxer on steroids these days?
If you compare the physiques of guys like Muhammad Ali or Joe Frazier and guys like Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko, there's an insane disparity of muscularity between the two. Is it really just "genetics" and "better sports science/diet" or is it just simply substance abuse? I mean, boxing training hasn't changed much at all since the Ali-Frazier era, so I'm kind of perplexed at how a guy like Anthony Joshua can supposedly "naturally" achieve a physique that Ali and Frazier couldn't no matter how hard they worked.
