I got a feeling Pac would do well against Robinson. Floyd not so much.

No announcement yet.
Could any current Welterweight go the distance with Sugar Ray Robinson?

Guys that like to engage would get stopped IMO so Cotto, Margarito, Pacquiao, Mosley.
There is a chance that Robinson wouldn't got for the knockout of course and just box but if this is prime 147 Robinson most guys would get stopped.Originally posted by LightsOutLewis View Post12 rounds yeah i think the elite guys could hang in there
15 rounds only the best of the elite
and i dont think any of them would win tho guys like sweat pea and floyd have a chance due to there D but an offencive guys like pac and p will? come on man SRR would put them to sleep

Can you imagine Rocky Marciano trying to stand his ground with a 21 yr old Mike Tyson or a 30 yr old Vitali Klitschko? Or Jake LaMotta outpointing Marvelous Marvin Hagler or Roy Jones Jr? Lennox Lewis would destroy guys like George Chuvalo and Joe Bugner. SRR was very great. No doubt about it but he was beatable. He may have beaten SR Leonard, Floyd Mayweather Jr, and Felix Trinidad. But those would not be easy fights by any means.
Wouldn't be easy fights but if he had the same training as the fighters today had, had a full 2-3 month training camp, who the hell could go the distance vs him?
