The boxers knew how to fight and the fighters knew how to box what an era of boxing

I think Leonard, Duran, and Pryor with the exception of a few after them was the last of that era of fighters who knew how to box and boxers who knew how to go toe to toe

[@sherrillraymond7595]

I gotta say this too Ray smart he took the 8 count and got his composure

[@indianjs]

RIP Sugar Ray Robinson🖤

[@dontbeasucka.61]

rocky won, But sugar ray Was past his best days, And still regained The title five times at 160

[@BNM0826]

The holding geez...I guess fighters thought that getting on the inside was the only way to beat the GOAT. And Sugar was like ok, come on in, I'm not going to let you have anything and will tie you up.

[@lamper2]

Rocky clearly won

[@comptondrew769]

One of the best to ever lace them up!

[@jackadoni]

That was a gift. He dropped Robinson but needed more sctivity

[@LouisMGiliberti]

I am a huge Sugar fan Fite very close. Rocky one tough dude.ay Rocky may have won. Close.

[@darrenfry4695]

Sugar's the original GOAT

[@mortimerzilch2608]

didn't look to me that Sugar won this fight.

[@bgjb-r1499]

Castellani won the fight. Close but not that close. Robinson got the nod because the wise guys had heavy money on Robinson.

In quegli anni i italoamericani grandi pugili grandi guerrieri grande boxe grandi grandi grandi

You can really see the smoke rising up due to all the folks smoking in the foreground.

[@CraftySouthpaw]

I've seen other fight films where the camera was positioned much farther away from ringside, and the amount of smoke throughout the arena was ridiculous.

[@6thmichcav262]

Old wrestling technique-every time Rocky got inside, he puts his head under Ray’s jaw and moves him around. Harder to get leverage when your head is being swiveled around. You can see why Ray would want to fight Rocky from outside.

[@ronaldlevao8251]

Robinson is clearly rusty--missing and mistiming his blows--but the film (in better shape than Jimmy Jacobs seems to indicate, perhaps the flaw is in the cut-off lower third) is a bit too jerky always to be sure which blows are landing solidly. Overall, the bout is too close to be able to say who deserved it and this isn't the whole bout. Still, you can see why most brush off claims for Mayweather over Robinson. Ray is looking to set up something serious at every moment, not just scoring enough to get an edge in the vote, then rolling and scuttling away to kill the clock.

[@MichaelMancuso-v2s]

Castellani got robbed!

[@bnejipumagabarri5091]

Robinson fue el mejor de la historia aquiiii no peleo asu mejor nivel luego gano tres veces el mundial

[@nobodyaskedbut]

Keep in mind that SRR is already 34 here trying to make a comeback. He was attempting to coast as a means to ease into a title bout. He may have underestimated Castellani's tenacity.

[@leodavies9383]

ray won but i think many people thought he loss because of the knockdown

[@Lonelysportofboxing]

Yeah true , was only one knockdown though

[@romanboxing3959]

Ray lost. It was more than just the knock down

[@Eagle8]

Agreed! Ray simply landed the most punches, especially to the body.

[@projectBabyest]

hugging the whole fight

[@bobcarty1433]

Robinson stayed sharp by constantly fighting in the ring. A heavy bag doesn't hit back.

[@patalbanese7718]

Rocky was my great cousin

[@itsgleneaton4883]

How did they get Hitler as the referee. But with that aside it’s always great to see the greatest. Thank you

[@Eagle8]

Unanimous! Good fight.

[@pukulu]

close fight with a lot of clinches and not so many clean punches landed.

[@romanboxing3959]

Rocky won

[@bgjb-r1499]

Yeah, I thought so too. He out worked Ray late in the fight and also knocked him down. That decision was a gift.
