      Did you know when Ray Robinson was a kid in the amatures he sparred with Willy Pep?


      Can you imagine 2 of the 3 best fighters of all time in the same ring, mind blowing stuff.

          You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to ThaGreatest_NK again.

            2 boxing gods...

            I got a autobiography of Sugar Ray Robinson...

            books ****in awesome, written straight by him...

            read 50 pages in like less than a day..

            That day he got beat up in the gym, then the same night he saw Joe Louis get knocked out....then he quit boxing for a few months...

            The reason he changed his name to Ray Robinson was because when he went for his first fight, it wasnt planned and didn't have his amateur license so his trainer for the night gave him the license of another boxer with same birthdate and info n everything and by the time they were able to get him one with the name Walker Smith it was to late because everyone knew him as Ray Robinson...

            By the way whos the other great fighter? Other then Pepp and SRR

              You have given out too much Reputation in the last 24 hours, try again later.
