    Undoubtedly. If he didn't run the whole time Lamotta would **** him up.

    Fights him 6 times in total yet turns down(not that it's true) a 7th fight yet he's ducking all of a sudden. Hang yourself in your toilet please.

    Don't listen to him Mac mand...

    it doesn't have to be the toilet. You can hang yourself in your closet, or off a balcony. No need to limit your options.

    That was a series of fights between those two fighters. I didn't know there ever were talks of a 7th bout, I always figured Lamotta had enough of him after ray gave him one of the worst beatings I've seen a champ endure in the St. Valentine's Day massacre.

    Ray Robinson is the greatest fighter who ever lived. I hope more of his fights make its way to the Internet (especially during his dominant 147 campaign.)

    LaMotta couldn't make weight any more and he never fought at middle again. Besides which, he was pretty much done as a top contender anyway. There was no need for another Robinson fight.
