February 14, 1951: 67 years ago Sugar Ray Robinson stops Jake Lamotta and wins Middleweight Crown

Thanks sir!

 

As my Korean War buddy would say: "oh my god!!!"
A 'ballerina with heat seeking missiles in both hands'!!
His record is often disputed but I'm thinking he was 131-1-1 after the 'massacre'. KO's Basora after the draw and beat Jake 20 days later after that loss, outweighed by 15 or so lbs. in both.
After turning pro fighting every 20-30 days for 10 frigging years!!!
Boxer-puncher? Simply look in the dictionary under SRR!
Had he been born later? Roll out the body bags boys!
He had everything, even more charisma then Ali who said he was the greatest.
I'm not going to go on. Quite simply the baddest MF to ever step thru the ropes!
