    He'd more than likely have his own promotion. He was a pretty good bussnes man himself.

    Money probably would've been working for Sugar, and fighting atleast one weight class below.

    Robinson was known for being his own man.

    It would be the same if he was around today.

    He would be the biggest star and the best fighter in the world.

    And he wouldnt need The Muppet team for anything.

    They would have fought in '09 0r '10. Robinson wouldn't have said no to a Mayweather fight. Which means in '12 we'd know who's best.

    :patsch

    Shows how deluded today's boxing fans are. Tag Team Kings in the same weight class?

    PUR-LEASE.

    Sugar would've whooped Floyd's ass at Welterweight... Not stood side by side with him.

    You're talking Sugar Ray Robinson... Not Manny Pacquiao.

    There would be no TMT promotions because Robinson would have beat Floyds ass before it ever formed.
