    Wonderful video. Loved the body shots in the one clip. That guy had to be feel like puking towards the end.

          Don't be harsh, man, any time people get a boxing education that's a good thing.

            karma sent. i don't care what anyone on this forum says. if boxing is still arounds in a 1000 years, robinson will still be the best who ever lived. a truly great fighter in a truly great era.

              Seeing Robinson box is like seeing an artist go to work. There is a real aesthetic to his punches. So fluid, so smooth,and so beautiful. If only we had some footage of him as a welterweight, when he was in his absolute prime.

              I do wish someone would make a similar clip with Joe Louis. He was another fighter who was a treat to watch.

                Don't go putting ideas into my head, Kid.

                  Like the other guys were moving in slow motion - the only other footage I've seen of SRR is some hilights from his fights with LaMotta, and those are equally impressive (although he had to work alot harder to win those...)

                    A very nice tribute to the greatest fighter of all-time. This video reaffirms my believe that he, along with Joe Louis, was the greatest combination puncher to ever live. Utterly brutal, yet beautiful and mesmorizing to watch.

                      Sugar Ray Robinson beat Fritzie Zivic his 2nd year in the ring..

                      84-0 as a amateur and a win over Willie Pepp

                      Had like over 30 1st round KO's..

                      Had a decision win over Armstrong....He said he could've knocked him out, but took it easy on him, because that was his childhood hero..Armstrong even said Robinson prime for prime would've beat him....

                      5 wins over Jake Lamotta

                      Sam Angott

                      Destroyed Randy Turpin

                      A 3rd round KO over Rocky Graziano, beating the **** out of him!

                      Would've beat Max Baer if it wasn't SO hot that night...

                      A OUT of prime Robinson (who had a fever) beat Basilio..

                      Also KO'd Fullmer with a beautiful left hook
