Rocky Graziano

Rocky who had 83 pro bouts, fought 19 different boxers that were rated in the top 10 at one time or another for a total of 30 bouts. He record was 22-6-2 against them.

 

Graziano had a GOOD right hand...

 

You know, I think it is more important in boxing to be exciting and good, than boring and great. That's why I will always take Gatti over Mayweather fights, Fletcher over Benitez fights. M. Ward over Whitaker fights, Vasquez over Hopkins fights EVERYTIME>:rasta

 

And maybe the Rock-a-bye baby Graziano over them all. These guys become legends and the Whitakers, Mayweathers and the like are forgotten and not cared about after they retire. People will talk about the exciting Pacquioa forever. Only purists and streetthugs will talk about Mayweather. And even then the thugs will throw hom asidfor Tyson and other punchers.:rasta

 

I believe Sugar Ray Robinson said the hardest he was ever hit was the right hand Graziano put him down with.

 

amen, tm

 

Sugar told me it was Artie Levine, S

 

You just don't stop do you. Like that annoying 9 year old kid that lives next door and is always asking questions. Eventually, he drives everyone so crazy you move. Is that you? I think so...

:rasta

 

He also said Artie Levine during the Way It Was TV show when Robinson and Rocky Graziano reviewed their fight.

Graziano was tough as nails and had a do or die attitude, he was in there with a master sharpshooter that could do it all that night but Rocky could punch. Artie Levine hit Ray so hard I think in the first Ray said he did not remember the fight and he won a10 rder

 

Can't do it now, SBj, have pressing stuff with deadlines. Will get back.
