    In boxing, when two great fighters get in the ring, anything can happen.
    Robinson wasn't a god, but he did have god like abilities in that ring.

    Name another fighter who could knock a man out while going backwards, let alone a fighter as good as Gene Fullmer.

        I think it hilarious that people are bringing up losses to Turpin, LaMotta, and Maxim since all three are better than anyone (except maybe Hopkins who Calzaghe barely beat) Calzaghe ever beat.

            Joe wins this.

            LOL at ******s claiming SRR would win this easily. How many of these ******s are old enough to have actually watched SRR fight and how many are video tape fans? Just like those idiots with Marciano, Frasier sigs-clowns. Dont give a **** about reputations, SRR would have lost-simple. End off. Period.

            BTW, ******s: SRR has himself gone on record to state that Joe is as good a figher as Duran, Marvin Hagler and Thomas Hearns.

                Joe would break his hands 4 times en route to the fight being pushed back a year. When the fight finally was about to start Joe would grumble about not wanting to fly cause he was scared and didn't want to take the paycut (after all he IS the star, who the **** is Robinson, does Ray have a WBO belt) and fight Sven Ottke instead.

                      That is exactly what would happen.
