Sugar Ray Robinson vs Spike O'Sullivan

Sugar Ray can't handle that power.

Spike KO1

 

I think they're facturing in that SRR has been dead for about 3 decades now, and still has a 7% chance to beat current Spike.

 

Spike by KO

 

Everyone knows that new boxers are better than old boxers. I haven't even attentively watched the televised bouts of shopworn middleweight Robinson, much less the audience recordings that exist of the welterweight version, but can you imagine any boxers from the crusty 40's and 50's possessing, for example, punch arsenals as comprehensive as we've seen displayed by our current crop of bobby-dazzlers at 160? Robinson could only have been a straight up and down with no special effects type fighter compared to today's talents. Now, let's stop pining for the 'good old days' and move on. Outside of the heavyweight division, this sport is healthier than it's ever been. Facts.

 

I know Boxrec have their own mathematical formulae and algorithms, but I would best describe Spike O'Sullivan as the living embodiment of Basilio and Fullmer squared.

Collectively Robinson was 3-4-1 against Basilio and Fullmer. If we square these numbers it gives 9-16-1, which obviously gives Spike a 61.54% chance of victory.

 

Spike dumps him on his arse

 

SRR would duck Spike

 

Thought I saw a thread posing the question who would win Sugar Ray Robinson vs Spike O'Sullivan, but on reading the title again it actually says: 'Missed my medication this morning, please ignore'

 

Holy crap, I didn't know April Fools day extended beyond the 1st.

But this is fun!!

SPIKE KO1 SRR

 

Stupid thread is stupid.

 

Realistically mate come on

 

This is a joke right,one of the reasons Ray Robinson is considered the greatest is because imo he transcends eras,you can see his speed and skill was off the charts,think about it he was so much better than his peers that if anyone could hang now it would’ve been him.

 

I think @Big Ukrainian is simply pointing out how useless Boxrec's What If? section is.
