Carmen Basilio - Was an American professional boxer who was the world champion in both the welterweight and middleweight divisions, beating Sugar Ray Robinson for the latter title. An iron-chinned pressure fighter, Basilio was a combination puncher who had great stamina and eventually wore many of his opponents down with vicious attacks to the head and body.

One of the roughest and toughest fighters in boxing history! Carmen Basilio was a deadly combination puncher who applied relentless pressure on his opponents to beat them into submission. His best assets were his never-ending stamina and unmatched toughness. A legendary champion and these are his best moments! www.patreon.com/haNZAgod
Nice!
all facts great fighter
haNZAgod, your work never ceases to amaze me.
Whenever you have a chance I highly recommend checking out Takuya Muguruma. He was pretty much the Japanese version of Carmen Basilio with his relentless pressure. There’s plenty of his fights on YT, his fight with Wilfredo Vazquez sr being one of the most brutal I’ve seen. Not many people know this fighter but he’s worth watching. It would be nice to see a highlight video of him at some point.
@@UndeadFool Awesome I'll check him out at some point soon Patrick, I'm pretty sure I've seen the Vazquez fight just need a little reminder.
Heyyy, that was a pleasant surprise for me personally. I knew Carman and his sister Tilly, both passed away within a month from each other. Great man and was still a hard ass when showing me techniques.
He had a stoppable determination and really understood the millimeter game. Fought anyone and everyone. An endless gas tank, sneaky uppercuts, great shifting. Basílio had it all.
Great post brother.
Carmen Basilio was a bad bad man, beat Sugar Ray Robinson, stood up to the mafia, insanely tough and tremendous ferociousness. Fighters aren't build like that these days.
Why old heads always gotta shit talk our generation. Shits annoying
He was definitely a bad man. No doubt about it. A Great fighter. We was no Ray Robinson though. Ray was 38 years old when they fought, then he lost the next time they fought. Still, very underrated fighter who deserves massive respect. Would beat up most modern-day fighters. I believe he'd give Spence and Crawford a run for their money + many of the super welter and middleweight champions. They just don't make em like Basilio any longer.
Plus, he was an expert technician. It's just a little hard to see because he was so ferocious too.
@@ronaldtoran4332you get it, it’s only an accomplishment because of Sugar Rays name and what he means to the sport. If anyone today beat a 38 year old Manny Pac they’d get castrated… but we know why it’s the first name they bring up when discussing his wins..
Of course not,fighters are born and for some reason ppl doesn’t want to understand that.
Carmine Basillio looks like a smaller Marciano. Basillo was an all time warrior, he would never give up, his pressure was relentless and he also had power in both hands. Great fighter, very underrated nowadays.
he's an upstate NY hero. Saw him fight twice as a kid.Also vito autofermo fought at the war memorial in syracuse-caught that fight too.
Awesome!
@@hanzagod And he was an Onion Farmer in Canastota NY, 25 miles away from me.
Basilio vs Sugar Ray Robinson was a baaaaanger! I still watch it to see the volume punches and controversial nature of Carmen winning split decision.
Toughest amongst the toughest. All time great, Hall of Famer, Legend, Inspired many greats ever since.
Curious fact, the International Boxing Hall of Fame was created in his hometown in great respect to him.
Close fight the first one with SRR but Carmen’s pressure got him the win I think. His wars with a bigger, stronger Gene Fullmer were epic as well.
His first fight with Gene Fullmer is a must see. He was taking on the middleweight champion and his heart was on full display.
Rough and tough as they come with heart and determination that’s Carmen Basilio
This man was Ron lyle's hero. It means something!
Where did you hear that? That would be really interesting if thats true, very random choice. But a great fighter to look up too to be fair!!
@@TFB97 he said on an interview that Carmen Basílio was The boxer that he used to look up!!!
@@TFB97 agree 💯
Agree 💯
Ron Lyle was a beast, that's great homage from such an amazing fighter. Thanks for that note.
He was a tough fighter.
Thanks for the memories.
What a fighter , he was ,, a joy too watch , his wars with Tony Dermaco 👏
Great fighter and champion with great pressure brawling style.
Toughness combined with A1 combination selection doubling on the same side, head body..definitely skills to be studied 👌 you make the best boxing highlights helps you appreciate the skills of fighters. Especially fighters that get lost in time... he's obviously a legendary but it's others that don't get the same praise
The way basilio put pressure on his opponents is very impressive. A true swarmer. Worth to study his style.
One of the best one's you did in a long time! great Edit. as for Basilio there is only one word THOUGH! been a fan since i saw he performance against SRR. good work
Fantastic highlight👌 Basilio was one tough fighter, big heart and just absolutely unbreakable. Gave it his all everytime.
I went to the Boxing HOF a while back and watched Carmen come in I had the honor of talking to him for maybe 20 minutes his mind was still sharp..awesome
Wow. A gift.👍
dude look intensive. Awesome stuff
He was one great
seriously tough guy in real hard man era , they dont make em like that no more, or do they maybe down mexico way he reminds me of Orlando salido a modern day warrior.
Carmen Basilio era un fajador impresionante y uno de púgiles más duros de la historia campeón welters y medio
You’ve been doing the Lord’s work on here. Keep it up.
Completely relentless...warrior. Great video. ❤️🥊
Wow ! He has great combinations
The first 5 seconds with that hardman look was epic
Fue un fuera de serie de todas las épocas,un enorme campeón!!!
🥊Excellent highlights of an all time great. 👍👍❗️
Muchas gracias por recordar a éste maravilloso boxeador,es de justicia.Durisimo y con un corazón que no le cabía en el pecho.
This is quality footage man thank you 👊🏼
Outstanding video!
How tough and relentless was Basilio? Kid Gavilan had 143 fights, fought a welterweight SRR twice, and was only dropped twice in his career: the first time was to Ike Williams in 1948 and the other was to Carmen Basilio in 1953.
Great champion
Nice
great as I am a admirer of Carmen Basilio as a man and a fighter
2:28 my man said "9 of them are wrong" lmao hell yea
And they sure were!
Carmen is one of the top fighters in his weight class to ever enter the Ring tough as nails and a tremendous puncher
Onion farmer at his best👌
I am so proud to say I have a family member that trained him well. I'm not joking. I am literally holding a picture of them training right now in my hand.
Deadly hook artist. Look at him close distance and throw that with that kind of power and accuracy. Great fighter. I always liked him.
Like almost every coach wanted me to fight like this
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 now that's what you call a fighter!!
Thanks for the video
You outdid yourself with this one! This video really captured the raw aggression of this bad mf
Great highlight.
You’re almost at 100k, go on you deserve it.
So close it could be any day now!!
@@hanzagod congrats
He pushed Sugar Ray to the limits
38 year old version, but yes he did
@@ronaldtoran4332horrible argument since he lost to a 39 year old ray
An amazing video, as always. Possibly the toughest guy whose ever stepped in the ring. Don't know if they make them like that anymore
Thanks Alistair! They certainly don't that's for sure.
@@hanzagod that's what i take from boxing. the extraordinary courage of these guys that i try to live up to in life
You know, I hear these names, I see an occasional vid clip, and then I get to see a highlight reel and I learn something at a whole new level. Basilio's ferocity was genius. Through this video I just saw him fight and really saw his character more than ever. I'm abashed and amazed, what an incredible warrior.
Great vid, haNZA, a constant education
and source of gratitude.
Thanks Michael glad you like it!
@@hanzagod 🙏✊️
Glad to see you're still around man, your videos are always a pleasure to watch 🤙
Thanks Damo glad you've enjoyed over the years! So close to 100k now
This might be my favourite video of yours mate, excellent tribute to a true ATG
Thanks Hugh glad you like it! Love Basilio fights.
Damn! He was relentless
Carmen Basilio vs Aaron Pryor would be an all out war!
Basilio was an inside fighter but he threw punches from the outside as well.
Carmen fought like an all time great
He was in some kind of shape.
Nails
Very interesting video
DeNiro looks a bit like him.
I'm sure a younger DeNiro could have played him in a movie.
Don't forget his all-time great nickname: Carmen "The Upstate Onion Farmer" Basilio.
that's gotta be Cub Swanson's grandfather
If you can't hurt a man and you can't wear him out and he's throwing a 100 punches a round, how in the Hell can you beat such a man? Carmen was a beast and criminally underrated. A two division Champion when it still meant something.
🦁 LionHeart
I remember watching that first fight between Floyd Mayweather and Marcos Maidana (great fight by the way) and thinking "man, Carmen Basilio woud have beat Floyd". Carmen was too, busy with his hands, too relentless with his pressure, completely indefatigable, teak tough and too likely to find the pocket and stay in it for prolonged periods. Of course I don't know if he would of beaten Floyd or not but a win (and a razor close loss) over the greatest of them all says, yeah, maybe he could've and all.
Indeed 💯
He beat Sugar Ray Robinson who is the greatest lol. Floyd with his lack of power couldn’t keep Carmen off of him.
@@JustinG1978 rules are different now, a lot of hugging and judge steps in quicker then needed.
All due respect, if I am being completely honest, I think Carmen steamrolls him. There are people that think Maidana won that fight. I know Castillo beat mayweather and Castillo was NO BASILIO. I REALLY don't see how floyd could keep him off? That little shoulder roll that he did so well is useless against a guy that is throwing two hand bombs and more than just one or two punches at a time. And he CERTAINLY wasn't going to hurt Carmen. I just don't see a way unless, of course, they fought today with floyd's judges.
I have collected fight films for years and have copies of several that I seen here. And it is the main reason, again with all due respect, that I will NEVER believe floyd is even in the top 25 all time. I have just seen too many guys like this. Guys that I don't think he could come close to beating.
Great left hook
If you look at his accomplishments as welter and then middle weight champ, the fighters he beat, he's definitely among the best all time. He gave an in prime SRR his best fight, and then lost the rematch by split decision with a closed eye.
Robinson wasn't in his prime but I do agree that their 2 fights were amazing!
love the highlights can u do a updated gervonta davis
I recently made a Gervonta defense highlight (which can be found on my 2nd channel) but I had to take it down on here because Showtime claimed the copyright.
5 veces consecutivas estuvo en la pelea del año 5 veces
Tough SOB. Nothing like Jake but still not to be messed with
100k subscribers await sir, it won't be long now
Sooooo close!!!
Anyways sir, I really appreciate the highlights you've been making for a lot of boxers, obscure or famous, anyways, any plans for a small montana highlights video?
@@aloyzinsabdonpacia5774 Unfortunately not due to the very limited amount of footage available of him. I wouldn't be able to make a good one.
@@hanzagod still, I appreciate the way you make highlights to these fighters, you deserve more exposure
The onion picker! 🧅
Como puede ser esto ,de este perrito de tocar el piano y leer la partitura musical.
effin relentless
please , make a gamboa videa, offensively was gorgeous
Do one on Mike Gibbons VS Packey
Top 3 film all time . & I love Carmen Gavilan & Ray
But theyre more like top 10 15 performances.
Its only 10 min
Great stuff
Basilio vs Palomino would've been an interesting fight at 147 fantasy wise
What song is this
Italiano❤
He's not from Italy just italian he was freinds with my great grandma
Reminds me of GGG
Chris Eubanks sr , davey moore , Riddick bowe
I’ve got multiple Bowe videos up on the channel already but check them out. Davey Moore will definitely be one for the future, not a fan of Eubank.
@@hanzagod chris Eubank sr vs nigel benn was war
@@siddharthbhandare1969 It was indeed
So technically flawed but so much volume something was going to land. Definitely not so much a boxer as a fighter. Not bad for an onion farmer from New York.
He actually had really good head movement.
Not taking anything away from Basilio...he was a bad man....but against SR it was close.....SR had a tendency not to train hard at times....and he beat everyone he lost to when training hard....both great fighters....but SR was the best bar none..
I've never heard that Robinson didn't train hard, he gave absolutely everything he had in both Basilio fights there was not a lack of training that I'm aware of especially in world title fights it doesn't make sense.
@@hanzagodBut i think he didn't train that hard at times like in the Ralph Jones fight,
What's your opinion on this?
Man a lot of ya just go by FB posts and IG posts to actually get your knowledge in the history of boxing 🤣 ya only keep bringing up Sugar… as if.. never mind lmaoo but Basilio v Demarco? MILES FASTER than Robinson Basilio 1
Both of those bouts you mentioned were great fights. Basilio vs DeMarco 1 was a better action fight but Robinson vs Basilio 1 was better on a technical level.
Sugar rays nemesis I reckon he would of steamrolled Jake la motta
Basilio was more of a Welterweight than Middleweight although he could certainly hang in with the best of them, I'd pick LaMotta in that one.
@@hanzagod but beat ray at 160 lbs
@@tttsharpe8118 And then lost to Ray in the rematch and 2 fights to Gene Fullmer and Paul Pender. Like I said he was better at Welterweight than Middleweight. LaMotta was a fully fledged Middleweight.
@@hanzagod not for me if he can go distance with ray twice I think la motta takes to much punishment do a la motta vs basilio poll I guarantee most hardcore fans the real fans will pick basilo u should do a video on the most avoided fighters in Boxing history like Lloyd marshal Charley the hill district holocaust burley Arron tiger wade Bert lytell Holman Williams burley was the best of them beats fritzie zivic 2 out of three times beat Archie a prime Archie Moore at 160 lbs twice lost to ezzard Charles twice never stopped never dropped some say ray Robinson didn’t want to fight him but sparred with the infamous murderers row to hone his skill didn’t give any of them a chance go to ring archives 1940-9 burley and co were never out of top 5 champs in the 40 s were zale , graziano , la motta , cerdan Holman Williams got robbed and that was a non title bout the only guy from the row to fight ray was wade and he took a dive ray wasn’t in on it tho
@@tttsharpe8118 But LaMotta went the distance against Robinson 5 out of their 6 fights and even beat him once. Jake didn't take as much punishment as you think, check out my defense highlight of him here: ruclips.net/video/lMjIRdgEeac/видео.html - Basilio was terrific in that first fight against Robinson and it was an incredible win but you have to take the career Middleweight against a Welterweight. Of course it would be a rough, tough, competitive type of fight but one that I'd fully expect Jake to come out on top in.
