From most of the footage I have seen of SRR, it seems that most of his opponents were come forward aggressive brawlers or just strong fighters, as opposed to pure boxers e.g Lamotta, Basilio, Turpin, Fullmer, Olson.
Does anyone know how he fared against pure boxers, as I haven't seen any footage of him fighting fighters in this mould and was wondering how he would fight and what it would look like. The only fighter I can really think of would be Kid Gavilan, has anyone seen any footage of this fight? I ask this question as I just wonder how he would box against a slick boxer. Does anyone know of any other fighters who he fought in this mould/ or have any footage?
Thanks.
