My Dad loved the guy to death.

To this day if you mention Robinson, my Dad will chime in "Sugar's sweet, boy, Sugar's sweet!"

I just watch old school videos online half the time, great to watch some of the guys from way back.
I do this all the time! Love the ESPN Classic fights too.

Love watching Sugar Ray Robinsons stuff
He's Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach all in one. The guy was the master. Very few sports have an undisputed greatest. Nobody can competently argue against Sugar Ray Robinson being the greatest pound for pound fighter who ever walked the planet.

Dempsey was a fricking animal.
Dempsey vs. Willard is one of the most scintillating classic fights ever!

ETA: Carnage begins around the 3:00 mark.

ETAA: In those days, there wasn't a neutral corner rule so a boxer could just stand over his opponent and maul him as he tries to get to his feet.

thats ridiculous, Willard had some fricking heart to keep getting up with Dempsey just cowering over him that entire time.

Roaad, a little gift idea for your Pops.
They have A LOT of Robinson fights.

Cool site for anyone interested, they have anything you can think of.
Great quality too, considering how old a lot of the stuff is.

True, it would hard to argue that he wasn't the goat.

If we took the top ten of all time in his class, there is no fight that he would not have the upper hand in.
