    stop reaching guys there is nothing even close style wise between zab judah and sugar ray robinson, other than the fact that they both box and step inside the ring, other than that, there is nothing.........

        it's still around, i got this one off the WOM (web of mimicry) from the Secret Chiefs 3, it's the War Room, i thought it was fitting.

            There's no one who will be next but there are pleanty of guys out there right now who would give him a good fight. Ray had to work hard to beat LaMotta, Servo at least once, Gavilan and he had two very entertainging fights, Tommy Bell won some rounds and dropped him flat on his back...I could see the best Hopkins and the best Ray being an intriguing affair. Ray was the GOAT, but he wasn't an insurmountable God. One of the reasons people loved him was that he made great fights. He wouldn't show up today and not find competition.

              lol..nah, man. There have been middleweights similar or exceeding Sugar's measurements, but measurements alone a great boxer do not make. Hearns was over 6' at welter and middleweight. Paul Williams today is a 6'0+ welter (and more than likely future middle) and wont be the next Sugar. Those 2 guys exeed his height at a low weight class, but will never be considered in the same class as Ray Robinson.

              God created Robinson for one thing and one thing only...to be the best boxer who ever lived.

                the closest thing to SRR would be the other 2 sugars, Ray Leonard and Shane Mosley at lightweight.

                  And by closest I would say a universe apart, imo.

                    The Only Reason I Even Like Zab Is Cuz He Fights Like Robinson.. Robinson Training Was Second To None It Allowed Him To Do Things With His Style Zab Simply Can Not Do... Ray Robinson Did Tons Of Footwork And Shadow Boxing Witch Was His Main Focus Of Training.. He Was Already A Puncher So He Just Worked On Foot Work And Speed Of Combinations Every Single Day .. With His Height At 5'11 Fight At Welterweight He Could Do Even Moore.. Zab Is Only 5'7 At Welter..
