Robinson wasn't merely a prizefighter, he was an artist. He made a brutal sport beautiful to look at. He was Muhammad Ali's idol. When Ali fought Liston for the championship, and Sugar Ray was introduced in the ring before the fight, Ali gave Sugar Ray the highest praise by taking his hand and bowing to him. Twice.
Atleast we have many. A bigger tragedy is having only one film of film of the men he ducked-Charley Burley. That’s no disrespect to Robinson. What’s even more tragic is not having even one film of Harry Greb.
@ninja squirrel What’s bull crap? There are hardly any footage of the fighters Robinson ducked. There’s one of Burley. There’s one or two of Marshall. There’s none of Booker. Not sure about Wade.
He is so good he’s the very reason why the p4p debate has started. At the time all the attention was focused on the big guys, and yet anyone in the sport were positively saying that SRR was the best boxer out there. 85-0 as an amateur, at one point in his pro career he went 121-1 with the only defeat coming at the hands of the great Jake La Motta, whom he beat 5 times afterwards just to prove that it was a fluke. Prime SRR is boxing itself. Fuck me even an old, washed out SRR would still be p4p top 5 of all times. He was everything a boxer should be and had all the physical and mind tools a boxer should have. Simply the best ever, forever.
@@ryanjoseph5155 ,Yeah he did and alot of HEAVYWEIGHTS wouldn't fight him ,Jack Dempsey was terrified, of Langford and he says it in interviews.. Jack said, Sam will flatten him..
This was literally one of beautiful things I ever seen - I mean to see Sugar Ray actually training...not just in a fight. But u witness the subtitles in his footwork. The speed and agility up close - the focus. Guys can’t even do this today. This guy was a master craftsmen. I’m in awe
Not everyone calls him the greatest ever. It’s just become fashionable to say just like it’s become fashionable to say Roberto Duran is the greatest Lightweight of all-time which of course-he is not.
@@shriharihudli oh trust me there will be, there's always someone great waiting to be discovered. SRR was a rare gem, but I don't doubt that there's gonna be someone like him in the future who is just as gifted talented and disciplined.
Man, the work and cataloging you put into this is a huge service not just to the boxing community but to others looking to get motivated; keep doing what you’re doing champ!
Talk with my dad who was a cousin to Ray Robinson he would always say what he remembers most was how fast his feet were. He said when he would watch ray train that ray would shuffle his feet so fast that it made you lose count of how many times his right foot was up front.. I once.asked who ray said he liked most as a fighter and he said a.guy.named.willie pep was a real tuff.guy...
The GREATEST welterweight and middleweight of all times!!! No If's ands or but's about it!!! 173 wins, 109 by KO, 19 losses 6 Draws!!! He has more knock outs than most fighters have fights....
@@futurechamp563 sugar ray leonard is an amazing boxer, doesn’t take away from hagler that he lost, but also have you seen the fight all the way through? Hagler won it, he was robbed.
This man was the greatest fighter....if I'm not mistaking after he retire from boxing he became a professional dancer...one comment I read stated his father was a cousin of Ray and mention how fast his feet where... this man had the best foot work of any fighter that has ever fought..Ali was very close..Sugar Ray won more professional fights and fought a lot more than fighters do today...now it's all about money when they r going to make plenty but still not enough....
@Martin I watched the St. Valentine's Day massacre . LaMotta had a head lol me a chunk of mahogany and I noticed Ray really punished LaMotta's body in that fight. The body shots took their toll and you could see it to. By LaMotta's reactions.
The intensity, the drive , the joy and love for the sport is just not in fighters anymore like it was in this man and or many of the other past greats. Just look how fighters hit the speed bag and jump rope these days. They look like they're doing it as going through the motions. Don't get me wrong , things such as the rope and bags are just supplemental to one's training but there's no drive in them when working these things . God I miss the old days
“Amazing footwork especially for back then”. You have so much to learn. There are too many fighters to name back in the golden age of boxing that had amazing footwork. Hell, go back 30 yrs BEFORE Robinson and watch footage of Light Heavyweight champion Jimmy Slattery. To be completely honest modern day fighters do not have good footwork. They’re not even taught it. They run or their “footwork” isn’t functional or advantageous. The only modern fighter who’s footwork impressed me is not Floyd Mayweather, but Vasyl Lomachenko. I’m sure there are more but modern boxing has become almost impossible for me to watch. There’s very little to do with boxing.
Hav Risen I don't have a lot to learn I have decent knowledge of boxing I was just saying his footwork was amazing for that era because a lot of guys were sluggers in those times and he was a technical machine
True, a lot of guys were sluggers, but a lot of guys were not. In fact, Robinson had trouble with guys that had good footwork like Kid Gavilan, Tommy Bell, Bernard Docusen, etc,etc. and completely avoided others like Charley Burley, Eddie Booker, Marcel Cerdan, etc. Robinson liked guys that came right to him in a direct line like LaMotta, Graziano, Basilio, Fullmer, Olsen, etc.
Hav Risen boxers always dislike fighting other boxers makes it harder for them they will always prefer fighting a slugger that comes right towards them
The difference here is that the sluggers I mentioned, save Graziano, were excellent boxers, especially by today’s standards. Believe me when I say that Carmen Basilio doesn’t beat Kid Gavilan, Johnny Saxton, or Sugar Ray Robinson by simply walking right to them with his hands held high and pasted to the sides of his head like these dopes today. LaMotta, Armstrong, Jack, and those guys were excellent boxers that came right at you. They knew how to slip and slide. They knew how to bob and weave. You may see a boxer today bob but they don’t do the weave. They don’t know how. Sluggers back in SRR’s day knew how to roll with the punches and knew how to throw intelligent punches, counter left hooks, lead left hooks, rights to the kidneys, lefts to the liver and solar plexus, etc. They threw volleys of intelligent punches and knew what to do with a guy on the ropes. Fighting these “sluggers” was no picnic for Robinson as it was usually on equal terms, just different styles. I would’ve been more accurate saying Robinson preferred guys that were shorter than him as it suited his style, whereas guys that were his height like Turpin and the other guys I mentioned didn’t suit his style as well.
Wow lord, ray robinson was a universe in a nutshell, his footwork is still jaw dropping after more than half a century, his skipping skills, punches, boxing records, his smile, humbleness, anything, you name it, all perfect. seems that god came down and got into boxing with a fake name for a while.
I just started bicycling after many years and have quickly realized what a great training tool it is, my cardio and strength have gone through the roof. Subsequently ive been looking for videos of fighters that utilized the bike and ive come to find some of the best have, Sugar Ray as we see in this video is one of them...
A truly great , great fighter. Everyone’s list of P4P greats is subjective, but he’s on absolutely everyone , who knows anything about boxing’s , top 5 !
@sha broussard middleweights are far superior when it comes to skill, speed and timing and fighting around this weight class is much more challenging and complicated than fighting in HW.
RJJ was an exceptional athlete... even as great as he is; can you imagine his legacy if he’d retired after fighting John Ruiz!!??... top 3 P4P ever?...
@sha broussard Consider also how far ahead of his times technicall he was, how many drills he invented or started, and most of his losses came when he was old, suffered from early stages of brain damage and because he just couldn't quit. How long he was a pro? Almost 27 years? Back then they also fought much more often, no time to recover, accidents were commonplace et cetera. Sugar Ray’s record was 128-1-2 with 84 knockouts at the pinnacle of his career. During 200 fights he was NEVER KNOCKED OUT. He beat also most talented guys of his times.
Allow me to correct some of your claims. There were no fighters in Rays weight that were fighting at Heavy. Rocky was 185 by the way. Ray began his career at Welter but when he turned pro at 19 he was at the small end of the weight. He was 136 pounds. A modern day lightweight/junior welter who with a day before weigh in like today might have been able to cut himself down to feather weight 126. He beat lightweight champion Sammy Angott and could have easily made the weight at this time but Angott didn't want his Title on the line so it was a non championship bout. In spite of being a modern day junior welter he beat and sometimes knocked out full fledged middleweights. He beat Lamotta 4 times out of 5 before he officially moved to Lamottas weightclass of 160. Even when he did move up in weight he rarely came in above 155. He only weighed 157 when he fought for the 175 pound title and would have won that had he not suffered heat exhaustion under conditions that caused the referee to collapse. Also 12 of Rays 19 losses came after he was 40 and shouldn't have been fighting. 16 of them came after a 3 year retirement of which he wasn't the same fighter on his return. Roy started at middle and went to heavy. Robinson technically began as a lightweight and with moderm day weigh ins could have began at Feather 126 and finished at LHW 175.
Yup , I noticed whenever Robinson does want to protect himself he likes to use his hands as defense. I won’t say his defense is terrible but it’s basically fundamental. Like whenever I’m rewatching a Robinson fight he likes to use lateral movement and catch parry or even deflect punches and clinching.
@@franagustin3094 Yes because it's not about the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog. Funny you mention Wilder, because he got KNOCKED OUT by much smaller Charlie Z ;)
Really appreciate Sugar Ray even more, I only saw fight clips before. I noticed footage is a lot clearer than the training clips of the fighters of the 80's, must be that film lasts longer than videotape.
rainy day boxing is uploading masterpieces on his channel. The intro, music, and montages are all amazing please upload with a bit more frequency do not lose passion these are enjoyed by many!
Great as always. You really have a taste while making this content, music fits always well. Sad to hear that you're having troubles with YT partner program. Hope this will settle down soon.
I’ve got to place Sugar Ray Robinson as the most graceful fighter of all time. His movement is so fluid that he looks like he’s enjoying a stroll in the park when he’s training.
I watched his fights(so so many) and seen Sugar Ray Robinson,s Fight Record, Incredible, he fought anyone and everyone, Champion,s up and coming contenders, practically everyone for so many yrs, and the conclusion I've come to is, Sugar Ray Robinson, pound for pound is, I think, was, The Best ever.
He was just too Badass. Knocked me out my Mothers womb in 1955 saw him here for a proposed fight with Chico Vejar. Ray had a young Drew 'Bunduni' Brown with him. This was 1961 here in Detroit Northland Mall. And again in 65 He retires on my 10th BIRTHDAY & again to help Joe Louis in 1970 Salute to the Champ. Nice guy
Truly Great, the complete fighting machine and Greatest pound for pound fighter of all time, one of my hero's, rest in peace champ, you will always be remembered
Robinson wasn't merely a prizefighter, he was an artist. He made a brutal sport beautiful to look at. He was Muhammad Ali's idol. When Ali fought Liston for the championship, and Sugar Ray was introduced in the ring before the fight, Ali gave Sugar Ray the highest praise by taking his hand and bowing to him. Twice.
Beautiful
And that why Ali is one of the greatest….the things he did outside the ring and also his knowledge of the history of boxing
I can see why, in his fights everything looked straight out off a movie. Man was on another level
The man is like a dominant force in the ring you can’t stop
Tap shoe dancer he was before boxing worked odd jobs family man not a Loud mouth extremely tough and honourable man
I love how he opens up body punches when an opponent grabs the back of his head... he just rips into them.. beautiful boxer
Sho nuff!
I was thought i was the only one that notice that !
Yup. No clenching or resting. Just fighting
@@c.galindo9639back then clinches and wrestling were part of the offense...
a great tragedy, that we only have a fraction of the fights of Sugar Ray Robinson, the greatest boxer ever, on film
Atleast we have many. A bigger tragedy is having only one film of film of the men he ducked-Charley Burley. That’s no disrespect to Robinson. What’s even more tragic is not having even one film of Harry Greb.

I’ve got to place Sugar Ray Robinson as the most graceful fighter of all time. His movement is so fluid that he looks like he’s enjoying a stroll in the park when he’s training.
Try watching my video looked like a novice compared to the average 70s fighter
Ray was so charismatic and enjoyed working on his craft. The man was a consummate professional.
I watched his fights(so so many) and seen Sugar Ray Robinson,s Fight Record, Incredible, he fought anyone and everyone, Champion,s up and coming contenders, practically everyone for so many yrs, and the conclusion I've come to is, Sugar Ray Robinson, pound for pound is, I think,
was, The Best ever.
He was just too Badass. Knocked me out my Mothers womb in 1955 saw him here for a proposed fight with Chico Vejar. Ray had a young Drew 'Bunduni' Brown with him. This was 1961 here in Detroit Northland Mall. And again in 65 He retires on my 10th BIRTHDAY & again to help Joe Louis in 1970 Salute to the Champ. Nice guy
