    Sugar Ray manages to beat Sugar Ray in a battle for the ages, but Sugar Ray takes Sugar Ray into deep waters more than once, thus Sugar Rays can't allow to slip once, and at times it seems Sugar Ray has the upper hand over Sugar Ray. However, Sugar Ray is eventually able to impose his superior boxing skills and movements, geting an edge over Sugar Ray in the few last rounds, although Sugar Ray stays dangerous to the end and you can't discard the chance of Sugar Ray decking Sugar Ray with a late rally. All in all, a fantastic fight.

    Sugar Ray wins a hard fought decission over Sugar Ray.

    I was looking for that quote as I remember reading Robinson saying that he essentially carried Fusari.
