Just a simple video of some of boxing's greatest champions and trainers giving praise to Sugar Ray Robinson, with some of his highlights chucked in there. Made this video over a year ago, thought I'd upload it just to stay busy, hope you enjoy!

When legitimately great fighters say you’re the greatest.....a man amongst men. The respect of your peers is the ultimate compliment.

most of ray robinsons fights werent even recorded thats the real tragedy

Sugar had the Jab, Power, Footwork, Speed, IQ, Defense, Chin, Combinations, Finishing Ability, Viciousness and Heart. He's the Gold Standard when it comes to boxing, period. RIP GOAT

My father loved boxing and he said to me watching Hagler vs Leonard as a child (what a fight) that there was another 'Sugar'. I asked 'Was he good?' My Scottish father replied, "Would have beat these two."

The man went 91 fights undefeated no one nowadays has 91 fights. Pound 4 Pound 🐐

'It was my pleasure getting knocked out.' - LOL

I don't argue with older people when it comes to Sugar Ray Robinson. I didn't have to have been alive during his era to recognize his greatness the eye test says it all in old footage like this video this dude was something way beyond special.

SRR and Joe Louis been tight with each other since Joe was 18 and SRR was 11. SRR use to carry Joe’s gym bag for him when Joe was training at the legendary Brewster’s Recreational Center in Detroit. And if you go watch Joe Louis “This is you life” SRR said that Joe Louis was his idol and if wasn’t for him he wouldn’t became a fighter. But make no mistake SRR is the best fighter to ever step in the ring, pound for pound the best.

His toughness set him apart. As slick and talented as he was, he was regarded as one of the toughest around in an era of the toughest men.

He had power, he had speed, he had heart, he had reflexes, and he had everything.

His style completely changed the game. To me he's the greatest ever. Every time he would lose he would come back the following year and demolish the guy in a rematch. I think he regained his title like 5 times? Wild.

They just don't make them like that anymore...absolute beast

He shining. People have to make more of his fights colored. That Gene Fulmer Knock out was a boxing encyclopedia

Man, Sugar ray robinson is such an inspiration... although history books have already said it no one can do it better than him, i still think hes underrated as todays boxing dont recognize him more these days.. they must acknowledge him as the best p4p boxer of all time.. hes such a different type of beast in his era

Even the old, worn out Middleweight version of Robinson we see on film is still the greatest!

Sugar Ray is being lauded by giants who are legends of the sport in their own right. This, in itself, speaks volumes of how great Sugar really was. Had Salvador Sanchez never died so young, he'd be right up there with him. Probably not eclipsing Robinson but certainly within reach. These kind of fighters are extremely rare. Thanks for memories champs. You'll never be forgotten.

With that much talent saying he's the Greatest Pound for Pound it has to be a fact.

You gotta be the GOAT when all the other great fighters of different era's call you TBE . Robinson did not have go around and tell everyone he was the best they would tell him he was .

200+ professional fights. He is the goat, no doubt.

"I fought Sugar Ray so many times I got diabetes."

The greatest ever

What people don't know is, Jack Johnson taught Sugar Ray how to punch the right way. People don't talk about this.

So crazy that you have all these great boxers from so many different generations all taking their hats off, and saying he was the best. Black, white, etc all seem happy to acknowledge that he was superior in their chosen field. Very beautiful to see

Sugar Ray Robinson was like water , ability to do it all , you name it

He was so good that when he was at his best, his fights wasn't video recorded 😢

Oh my god some of these combinations. 0:22 was the best imo. Counter uppercut, hook, hook, straight.

It's beautiful hearing the sport's greatest pay tribute to Sugar Ray all the way from Dempsey who won the title in 1919 to the present day. And that left hook on the granite jawed Gene Fullmer WoW. Plus the right hand he landed on my hero Randy Turpin.

What a great compilation - subbed. Robinson had every punch in his kit bag, but that left hook was just beautiful.

Ali said Ray was the greatest fighter pound for pound. Ali even modeled his style after Sugar Ray.

Sugar Ray really is hands down, THE greatest boxer pf all time. His speed and power and relentless dedication to keep pushing through really showed how he was a step above the rest. He is the epitome of boxing attitude and ferocity

I just wanna say your guys content is top notch, came across your guys videos from recommendation and been hook since then aha

What an incredible compilation! You really are an artist, man. What a fighter!

Universally recognized as the greatest pound for pound fighter. Perfect fighting machine. Absolutely no flaws.

Robinson was just on another level. Incredible fighter.

Welcome back Champ. One of my favorites channels.

I’ve watched over half of this mans videos and I’m JUST NOW SUBSCRIBING😭I appreciate every single video this dude puts out

Every boxer that praised Robinson in this video was a masterful champion themselves.

This was superb, thanks so much. No surprise those legends held SRR in such high regards though, he truly was a master. Thanks for a fab upload.

I hope you keep uploading this channel is so underrated

Thanks for the video, RAINY DAY BOXING

He was the best so sad that we dont have more tapes from his welterweight time Imagine how dominant fast and strong he was at that division ! A video about the fifth member of the fantastic four Wilfredo Benitez would be very interesting. He began his Pro career age 15 and become youngest Champion ever 2 years later. He is very underrated in my opinion and deserve better. Great rivalry with Duran, Leonard and Hearns. You are doing great work 👍 Sry for my english Greetings from Germany

Great video once again. You are amazing!

There is no other boxing champion like "Sugar" Ray Robinson. Period.

That left hook at 2:50 against Fuller. Perfect

He fought in the toughest era of boxing and he dominated it!

Amazing watch, haven't seen half of the interviews before

Great nuanced videos man.

you do such a good job on these vids! LOVE boxing, fighting, soldiering!

Great video. Thank you ❤️

Brilliant compilation

Excellent work sir, keep it up.

Great video, keep it going

This was a great video testimonial

Much Appreciation.

Thank you for getting such rare footage of the greatest boxer p4p:))

What made Robinson such a special fighter for me outside of his style, speed, power and combination punching, was his ability to take punishment as much as he dished out. He had a rock solid chin. Watching fight snippets of him does not do justice to the man and his legacy. Truly the greatest fighter who ever lived.

Great Video!

When veterans show their respect for other fighters,love it,,,,

Great vid thank you!

For a life long boxing fan this is a great vid sincerely thank you 😊

👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥 great work keep it up loveing it 🔥

Great video!

Complete. Super depth of skills. Strong, aggressive. A champ!

Yo tanbien considero a sugar ray Robinson como el mejor de todos los tiempos

How did you get that gene tunney, jack dempsey and joe wallcott footage? Great video.

Sugar Ray Robinson was the Jimi Hendrix of the ring..Greatest of All Time...

What a great vid that was to see some of the all time great fighters heaping praise on who I deem the greatest fighter of all time of any division!

Some people are born to be great Sugar Ray Robinson was born to be the greatest

You know you're the GOAT when Ali says so lol

Ali& Sugar Ray Robinson are a couple of my favorites in boxing.

Some folks find it hard to see Boxing as a gentleman's sport. Often it's because they cannot see beyond the savagery, the blood, the brutality of it. They cringe so they miss the Sweet Science of it. But Sugar Ray Robinson not only embodies all of the aforementioned attributes at the highest level, but his sportsmanship, his respect for his opponents, his classiness in & out of the ring the is best example one could ever find to make the point abundantly clear. All time talent, all time greatest, all class act! Mister Walker Smith Jr, aka Sugar Ray Robinson, I salute you. You are the reason I have you at the top of my all time favorite Boxers. No one comes close. I was born well after your career, but I'm grateful for every piece of footage I can find that encapsulates your brilliance. You were & remain, one of a kind! May your soul rest in peace!

Great to see the old fighters in colour talking about the sugar man his footwork and speed of punch was incredible, hard as nails and vicious with it,the greatest without a doubt

I'm still shocked to hear the new generation dismiss Rays greatness. They haven't even studied th history of th sport an yet they have th nerve to gudge the realist legend in the game. Only Ali comes close to Robinson. Nuff said

The crazy thing about SRR to me is how clear and direct everything is. Sure the meta was different back then, but something to compare is how damn hard, fast and clear his punches came out. When he punches, he hits, and even if it's not a clear blow, his opponents get knocked back. Just deadly.

Good video, thank you for your share ♥️👍

I just noticed all the guys he interviewed are people who were there when Robinson lived

Beautiful 🥊

the guy was Muhammad Ali's idol. So you know he is the real deal.

He looked tremendously coordinated , either hand , he had it all offense, defence , speed , quickness , stamina wonderful fighting machine

Hey man. I like your videos, especially the ones where you make a documentary. Would you consider doing a Sugar Ray Robinson documentary? I'd like to know more about him. He had so many greats say good things about him.

I have no other positive comments to say about this video, I wish I could double subscribe....... I only have one word to say for this video, MAGNIFICENT

Greatest of all time

Absolutely beautiful

I was asked who I would want to fight like... Tyson, mayweather, Ali. I said Sugar Ray Robinson.

The art of boxing SSR

Neither Mayweather nor Pacquiao are better than Sugar Ray Robinson. He is the legend of legends.

I like this video respect

Best ever

Pure class

Definitely the best to ever do it, and had a long list of fellow greats to prove it against. 5 time middleweight champion.

This man would land solid hits on one foot

Definitely one of the greatest ever Rip SRR 💯💪🏾✊🏾👊🏽

I ain't gonna argue with any of those guys!

I just love this. I wanted to know who taught him how to box and then somebody mentioned Jack Johnson. I think that maybe he did get some help from him, as he was considered a genius himself

The best ever.

Best fighter of all time, plus he had glass , seemed like a nice guy outside of the ring to.

Ray Robinson amongst Boxing's Best!

Robinson's toughness set him apart.

greatest ever. No doubt
