out of all the middleweight champions....

Jake has made it clear for decades that he agrees with SRR as the P4P GOAT. However, although they had prime for prime match ups, they never squared off in a truly peak for peak showdown. Robinson admitted that fight number five, a 12 round SD in September 1945, was the toughest match he ever had with LaMotta. Nearly half a dozen years would elapse before they concluded their rivalry with The Valentine's Day Massacre. A continuation of their series through the late 1940s may have seen the heavier Jake add some losses to Robby's ledger. Because they did have six fights, this post war gap in their history gets overlooked when discussing bouts which didn't take place but should have. But it was during this interval that LaMotta came in under 155 for the only time in his career for Janiro, and was reportedly extremely impressive.

 

LaMotta vs Apostoli would be a great fight.

 

the person who think that greb would beat lamotta easy or even before of the limit... well... he know absolute **** about boxing. nobody, i repeat.. NO MIDDLE IN THE HISTORY MIGHT KO LAMOTTA. AND ROBINSON WAS BETTER FIGHTER THAN GREB EVEN ROBINSON AT MIDDLE. LAMOTTA WOULD GIVE THE HELL TO ANY ATG IN THE HISTORY AT MIDDLE.
I FAVOR LAMOTTA TO BEAT LEONARD,EMILLE,BENVENUTI OR HEARNS AT MIDDLE

 

Somebody please set up the following scenario!

Billy Conn, the greatest Harry Greb booster of all time, being told by homeboy from the canary islands Jake LaMotta would take Harry Greb

I'd give a million bucks to see Billy's condition!!
I really would!!

 

bump

come on this ones a knee slap

 

Except, of course, Bob Fitzsimmons who KOd better and more proven chins than Jake Lamotta.

 

lamotta loses to everyone in the top ten from the sixties era and up:think
