    Gavilan wasn't exactly slow or straight forward either.

    Plus Gavilan and Tommy Bell. I'm sure there are others in Robinson's long resume also.

    Each of these guys should count as TWO slick fighters apiece.

    i said genuinely slick. a slick fighter is someone like mayweather or lara. gavilan has more in common with canelo and canelo isn't really what i call "slick"

    Abrams was damn slick as well. Very unlucky to not be champion.

    We all have our opinions Sugah, I think the Kid was plenty slick and then some.

    Do you mean the currently active welterweight named Ray Robinson?

    Odd way to phrase that question otherwise.

    Jimmy Doyle was a slick classy boxer with a straight up style...Were it not for being
    matched with a true middleweight Artie Levine, and some chap named Ray Robinson,
    Jimmy Doyle might have won the WW title...
