A calm quality Ray did have, along with Joe Louis, Ali, and Marciano.....I feel these kinds of fighters are a rare breed, they were pure warriors with very little conflict inside themselves.
@@jacobcampos2407 I would too out of curiosity but I’ve learned it was easy to be silenced if you had strong opinions and racism was heavily present so idk
wow he has a real genuine confidence about him, only few have it one I can think of is marlon brando. its very powerful the mind and conscienceness is so powerful we don't even realise the full potential. a lot of fighters today act confident but its not real its actually insecurity.
How do you imagine a fight going down between him and Floyd Mayweather? This is just a question not a comment but did Sugar Ray fight lots of really talented Fighters? And then of course there's the whole thing of each generation is different but I guess I'm just wondering if he would have been able to actually hit Floyd enough for it to make a difference cuz I've seen so many Mayweather fights enough to realize that nobody could lay a hand on him because of his defensive technique
Robinson has longer reach and he threw punches in bunches Robinson also had power in both hands and was known for knocking people out going forwards or backwards Floyd mayweather had trouble with the combination punching of manny paquiao which is why Floyd only threw singles for the majority of the fight and repeatedly held manny paquiao instead of shooting it out with him Floyd mayweather own dad said live during the fight “you are fighting scared son. You haven’t thrown combinations” Now imagine sugar ray Robinson 5’10 with longer reach and can throw combinations as fast as paquiao with power in both hands and is able to knock you out while moving any direction and just overall better technique than manny paquiao That should answer your question
Racism is a fringe issue and has been for decades. If it wasn’t for media telling everyone that everything is racist, then people wouldn’t even talk about racism because of how little it actually exists.
So white people lynching black people in the 1800's-1900s was for the 'media'? or what about the hate crimes that intentionally avoided any media attention? Adjust your tin-foil hat then come back and try to make some sense.
@@panthersinstinct2750 Notice how I said decades, and you counted in centuries. THATS how dumb you are. And while we’re at it, white people got lynched too. Youre just a typical stupid leftist they thinks you’re smart because other stupid leftists said you are the smart ones 💀 your claims are all conspiracy theories and yet I’m the one with the tin foil hat? 😂 smh yall are pieces of work
If you would take the time to get a good mic and record it on film you could have pretty fantastic audio even back then. Wizard of Oz was filmed two decades before this and still sounds great :)
Grown man getting whipped by his mom. That's funny because, my mom use to tell me stories about those days. Married men with his own kids were still getting pounded on by their. Real black women did not play. I remember when my brothers and I were in our 20's, there were some stuff we had to take off and leave in our cars before we went into the house. Like earrings, gold cap for tooth you were able to take out and put back in and if we bought a girl to the house, she better be fully dressed.
Lamotta his toughest because people think he is crazy if he does not admit it but he stated Zivic was his toughest, for those who don't know he is talking about Fritzie Zicic, who fyi has the deepest record probably in boxing history. A tough son of immigrants from E. Europe, high record boasted many wins and many losses but most of those losses were either close or controversial, including the SRR loss. He also had a split decision loss to Billy Conn, Charley Burley, Jake Lamotta, he beat and later lost to Henry Armstrong, and pretty much the entire ''black murderers row''. Fought everyone, like Joshua Clottey he had many losses but to elites and many times controversial.
Kyza Yorke I think the racism and sexism that was prominent back then would make you change your mind lol our era is beautiful in its own way ... we just dont see it yet ... and once most of us do, it’ll be too late to appreciate it
kobeylocc03 Would you rather be here rn with the coronavirus and our understanding of medicine ... or even further back from the 50s when we were smearing faeces into wounds?
Why in God's name has there not been a movie to showcase the greatest boxer of all time Sugar Ray Robinson?
Ikr I would pay good money for that
@@fredwr uh, you?? I'd pay top dollar for that. My absolute favorite icon. The 👏👏
I been saying the same thing
I would definitely watch that!
Ali
I could listen to the smooth fellow talk all day. They don't make em like that no more . You can tell this man has alotta confidence and plenty sense
I swear. A gentleman, but a BEAST in them ropes.
Seems like a 'modern' interview, very honest and informal.
A calm quality Ray did have, along with Joe Louis, Ali, and Marciano.....I feel these kinds of fighters are a rare breed, they were pure warriors with very little conflict inside themselves.
great observation...
Tyson fury is the greatest
@@solidcake3401 Tyson fury seems like the most conflicted person alive lol
They probably had a lot of conflict inside themselves, they just never showed it on camera or in a crowd
@@BunkyBunk___ can't be sure about thqt
They dont make guys like him no more. Them parts are out of print, classy as fuck. GOAT
I wish I was born in his time. Everybody fake now or harder to find
@@jacobcampos2407 I would too out of curiosity but I’ve learned it was easy to be silenced if you had strong opinions and racism was heavily present so idk
@@jacobcampos2407you would not like to live in his era lmao
*what a swag man Sugar ray has killer style of fashion and attitude*
Is anyone else hear the passion in SRR voice when talking about charity ? Real man.
The times we live in now don’t even compare, this is when people had true integrity. Rip champ.
the toughest fight i've had out of the ring was when my mom found out that i was fighting 😅
Sugar Ray Robinson the only black man to pull off a slicked back comb over look.💈💸🔥
shaolinWOLF36 well that was wrong
And who the hell are they
That style was real common among blacks during that time period
@@JordanFranklinTV yeah coming off of whites
@@thearc7431 And now it's the other way around,your point?
yeah looks real good on him
Ray Robinson Is The Ultimate Warrior
wow he has a real genuine confidence about him, only few have it one I can think of is marlon brando. its very powerful the mind and conscienceness is so powerful we don't even realise the full potential. a lot of fighters today act confident but its not real its actually insecurity.
He was like the best boxer that had the movie star looks and style!🥇💯
the greatest of all time in and out of the ring still to this day.

@@alanidron2133 man ray just diferent lvl man. He could box for 15 rounds firin' punches without rest. Floyd just would not handle that fight temp
@@alanidron2133 Ray would defeat Floyd with one hand, to paraphrase what one wise quora guy said
Robinson has longer reach and he threw punches in bunches
Robinson also had power in both hands and was known for knocking people out going forwards or backwards
Floyd mayweather had trouble with the combination punching of manny paquiao which is why Floyd only threw singles for the majority of the fight and repeatedly held manny paquiao instead of shooting it out with him
Floyd mayweather own dad said live during the fight “you are fighting scared son. You haven’t thrown combinations”
Now imagine sugar ray Robinson 5’10 with longer reach and can throw combinations as fast as paquiao with power in both hands and is able to knock you out while moving any direction and just overall better technique than manny paquiao
That should answer your question
Great interview 👍🏾👍🏾 sugar ray Robinson my favorite boxer , love him . RIP
He sure was something special, never ever to be forgotten.
so freaking handsome !
Wtf
You gotta see his smile 🥺.. so damn beautiful 😩..
@@Taelathegazadiva ive seen it! thats one of his best attributes also the brown bomber joe louis is another sexy man! i love the men from the time!
@@aaroniahevans3265 damn women like you still exist that’s great
"That man was beautiful" Muhammad Ali
My goodness. This man was a killer in the ring but the sweetest dude outside. Wow
Ray was the coolest
A warrior in the ring and a gentleman outside the ring
Robinson oozed class
Love Sugar Ray Robinson .G.O.A.T.
Sports brings color together. Do you see any racism here ? Look how in loved the guys is with ray !

What the hell is this idiot talking about?
Propaganda. Whites hate black for today. White has opinon on blacks that they are under people.
Pretty good audio quality for being 1952
I thought the same thing lol.
Probably remastered
If you would take the time to get a good mic and record it on film you could have pretty fantastic audio even back then. Wizard of Oz was filmed two decades before this and still sounds great :)
Microphones and audio equipment were actually pre solid back then
His hair was looking fabulous on this interview 😮🫡
They cannot find a fighter with a similar style to Sugar Ray’s he was one of a kind
These legends are brill people such nice and lovely men pure pros. Great stars.

Lol dang mom's didn't play 💯💯
Sad we don’t have as many real black women today.
He's so handsome
Omg whoever cures cancer will be the richest person ever cause we have been fighting that disease for so so long.
God bless S.R.R
SUGAR RAY ROBINSON
The one and only. 👏
Did he say his original name was Walter Smith?
Yup he borrowed the name Ray Robinson from off his friends birth certificate
Thank you :)
Muhammad ali hero is the best
Sugar ray robinson
What a really nice guy: forget about Ali and the rest...SRR is surely the greatest of all time.
A truly class champion
beautiful
Thank you
Man.. old school black americans really had class
Lamotta his toughest because people think he is crazy if he does not admit it but he stated Zivic was his toughest, for those who don't know he is talking about Fritzie Zicic, who fyi has the deepest record probably in boxing history. A tough son of immigrants from E. Europe, high record boasted many wins and many losses but most of those losses were either close or controversial, including the SRR loss.

Fought everyone, like Joshua Clottey he had many losses but to elites and many times controversial.
Fritzi Zivic was a dirty fighter who uses his head elbows and thumbs Robinson easily beat him in the first fight And stopped him in their second fight
@@franklincvitan9777 the score cards and SRR said otherwise about their first fight. SRR said he learned a lot in the first Zivic fight
Greatest fighter and an a even greater man
I miss this about today america
I'm completely straight but dude is ridiculously handsome and charismatic. Only other person who reminds me of him is Muhammed Ali
Different breed of fighter,this man.Can clearly see why Ali idolized him and called this man the p4p best
How have we not figured out cancer yet?
garrett whitt shut the fuck up. “We” as if ur doing anything to figure it out. Hey dumbass. Its cancer. YOU FIGURE IT OUT. nope. You cant
A cure exists but its not profitable
We do
And yet Jim Crow was still in effect. Beautiful human
Did he say his real name was WALTHER Smith, not Walker ?
Jack Ridge his real name is Walker Smith
Jack Ridge: At 3:00 it sounds like he said his real name was Walter Smith. History tells us his real name was Walker Smith.
WALKER SMITH JR., JOE, IS FOR REAL!!!
WALTER was his name.
NOT WALKER OR WALTHER
P4P best boxer of all time
This guy is what people tried painting Muhammad Ali as 💯
Anybody think he look like ASAP Rocky?
You’re the 2nd person to say that 😂
He should have rematch with Joey maxim disappointed that he didn't try again 😒
Hallelujah ❤0
is it me or does Adrian Broner look like Sugar Ray
I see it some
Sweet
What a beautiful era.wish I was round back then not this shitty 2k19 one where everyone is a fake
Kyza Yorke I think the racism and sexism that was prominent back then would make you change your mind lol our era is beautiful in its own way ... we just dont see it yet ... and once most of us do, it’ll be too late to appreciate it
Kyza Yorke Study History please
Al doesn’t look like it right now
kobeylocc03 Would you rather be here rn with the coronavirus and our understanding of medicine ... or even further back from the 50s when we were smearing faeces into wounds?
Al you’re not lying guess it’s better now
He was too pretty no homo
💪🏽😎
I wonder how he would do against Roy Jones Jr
all european countries…but still the baddest ever🥊
That hair
Fluffy Snow doggo It looks super fresh doesn't it?
The Duke of Suffolk indeed
Wouldn't mind having some of that conked hair now, lol.👍
Slick hair
If Floyd Mayweather (🇺🇲) trash talked Sugar Ray Robinson (🇺🇲) he would have dirtified Mayweather's face
no comparsasion
Without a doubt the #2 GOAT, behind Jake Paul.
😂
Facts Jakes a legend 🥴
I was expecting Muhammed Ali😂 not that clown
