after watching sugar ray robinson

[mickey malone]

Then you're truly a ****in idiot.

Lol... Can you imagine SRR doing that silly dance while trying to shout the odds (Juddah) lololololol......

OMG Triple hook? Who does that today? Who does it as fast?

SRR was the truth, and it's plain to see.

clottey always throws the triple lefthook..hell old ass roy still throws the triple left hook faster than ray robinson

[TheGreatA]

Clottey and Roy Jones did the triple hook to perfection..its accurate and fast sorry to rain on your parade.

Never seen Clottey throw one, Roy's was more for show. Robinson and Kid Gavilan are tied for the best use of multiple left hooks, both fought each other too.

[Mersey]

honestly i think mayweather or cotto both ko this guy.

So you think Cotto could KO somebody that is known as the greatest P4P boxer of all time?

[The_Demon]

imagine fighters like SRR figuring in a series of fights against fellow ATGs & HOFs? as often as every month at least?

thats the reason why i think these old skool fighters will remain up there...

fighting the top opposition more than once & significantly more frequently than the busiest elites right now...

hit the nail on the head my man

[mickey malone]

95% of the posters here haven't seen him fight, and only go by word of mouth/heresay or old ESPN classic fights with terrible quality

We only say he was the greatest because that is what we are supposed to say. Truth is, no one knows for sure if his fighting acumen would have transitioned to today's game.

Greatest ever is all relative, its easier not to engage in the argument I suppose

Well 95% of the posters should wipe their bottoms & get off the toilet.. If you're not aware, then start off by trying to ring the bell at a fairground punch ball..

[TheGreatA]

There's more than enough footage to make up an educated opinion about Robinson's abilities. If you don't like what you're seeing, that's fine, but atleast make the effort to watch a couple of his fights before commentating.

Most boxers today haven't even had 50 fights, so watching 50 Robinson films should be enough.

SRR is undisputedly the greatest fighter ever, people who doubt his greatness have absolutely no idea what they are talking about

[RightCross94]

im a big floyd fan, but SRR beats him handily at WW

If he were to fight Hagler and Hop at MW...depends which version of SRR, the younger MW version before his first retirement would probably win or lose a close decision, the older version probably loses

SRR also beat Pernell Whitaker at 147. He'll also beat JCC at 147, I'm sure you know where I'm going with this. SRR was a HUGE WW, ofcourse he'd beat Mayweather.
