Charley Burley - Was an American boxer who fought as a welterweight and middleweight from 1936 to 1950. Archie Moore, the light-heavyweight champion who was defeated by Burley in a 1944 middleweight bout, was one of several fighters who called Burley the greatest fighter ever. Burley was the penultimate holder of both the World Colored Welterweight Championship and the World Colored Middleweight Championship.

One of the greatest boxers of all time! Burley was part of a group called the Black Murderers' Row who were renowned for being feared throughout the boxing world and never receiving a shot at the world title. Definitely one of the best fighters I've ever seen on film, unfortunately there's only 1 fight film of him in existence but I did the best I could with what was available. www.patreon.com/haNZAgod

Well said. Archie Moore "The Old Mongoose," is my favorite fighter of all time. I studied the martial arts and the style that I studied was derived from India. It is called Vadha. The mongoose is the styles mascot, being the snake killer. Burley moved and pivoted with excellent circular motion. Again, well said.

Let me sum this up. Charley Burley was the absolute best. He didn't take a lot of unnecessary punishment like Greb, Langford, Zale, Ali, Charles, Marciano etc.... Burley was the very definition of a scientific technician. He fought the absolute best of the black Murderers row and heavyweights on a routine basis and hit harder than Greb. A LOT of top fighters blatantly ducked Burley including Robinson who wanted nothing to do with Burley or any of the black Murderers row. Burley was better than Pep who was a fantastic fighter but Willie was stopped badly by Sandler. Burley was NEVER counted out or suffered a stoppage loss like a lot of his peers. And because of his uncanny skill level he left with his health intact unlike at least 70 percent of the fighters from that era. The closet thing to Burley you will likely see when analyzing his style is a prime Roy Jones. I often look at Roy as Burley 2.0 in terms of his skillset and as payback for the opportunity unjustly and criminally denied Burley. I feel that Burley however had better fundamental technique than Roy and he used his jab more.

So elegantly smooth! His evasiveness and counter punching abilities were top notch and it appeared to be second nature to him. He'd beat many of these youngins in this generation even! Currently reading two biographies on him. Such a humble champ who never got the chances he rightfully deserve but his reigns as World "Colored" Champion in the welterweight and middleweight classes should be looked at as official reigns. All of the guys in the black Murderers Row in those years were superb fighters! Charley Burley stands out above the rest though.

The half angle step-back as a defense / reset option, lateral circling / stepping into side steps, slides, and low lead arm to shoot up-jabs & pawing jabs are their similarities. Their sub-style, punch volume, choice of offensive strategies, and further defenses were different. If you boil it down...Charley Burley was a boxer-puncher and Canzoneri was a counter-puncher - just that both took those styles to another planet.

Without a doubt he was the best of the "murderers row" boxers who was never given a title shot. Ray Robinson just would not fight him saying to his trainer when a matchup was suggested "I thought you liked me and worked for me" Boxing is the only sport I know of where an elite athlete can be almost entirely overlooked and/or forgotten. Ezzard Charles generally regarded as the greatest light heavyweight of all time said Burley was the best boxer he ever faced. Archie Moore regarded by many as in the top 3 all time light heavyweights after being beaten up and decked 4 times by Burley said “there may be a better fighter in the whole world than Burley, and if there is, I hope they never get in the damn ring with me.”

​@thatbronzeboij let's go back to April 30th, 1942 when Ray and Charley met each other for the first time and was on the same fight card. Ray weighed 146lbs that night and charley weighed 153lbs. They both knocked their opponents out in the 2nd round. Ray was a natural welterweight and barley was a natural middleweight. Ray watched Charley that night and said to his manager " I'm too pretty to fight him." Ray was the dancing master while Charley was the defensive master. Now, if they did fought, if Ray loss, he would've beaten charley in the rematch, but Ray robinson at that time before he went into the military was something special. Looking at thus footage of Charley, I believe 100% Ray Robinson wouldve beaten Charley because he saw him upclose and watched his movements that night of April 30th, 1942. Ray would've dazzled the judges with his skills and beat Charley.

No he wasn't ducked by Robinson, it's a myth. Go look at their records and you'll see that Burleys last ever fight in the welterweight limit was in 1938, that's w years before Ray had even turned pro. Ray's last fight at welterweight was in 1950. Their records never even crossed paths. Stop talking nonsense and study it yourself.

Charley Burley, one of the few boxers who had a minimum chance to face modern boxers, i think.. Lack of technique in the boxing past days made this prodigious boxers the greatest of that time, but i think even an evolved boxer of this days could be in trouble against one of that very few boxers of the past. I'm sorry for my english, nice video!

I think modern boxers would get walluped by the boxers of generations past. DOnt let the modern guys cut weight and actually fight at their size and the old school boxers clean their clocks. I think boxing is one of the few sports where talent has regressed over time with a few exceptions

KINGJAYSWISHIII_ I don't think "regressed" is the correct term. I think the term "changed" or "evolved" is better. Evolved doesn't mean that the newer form is better...it just means that it is what is commonly found today. For example....birds are actually EVOLVED Dinosaurs, but you can't tell me that an eagle is a better hunter than a T-rex on the ground. Boxing before the 1920's had A LOT more clinching and "lost" hand checking techniques than boxing in the 1940's, but fighters in the 1940's preferred to use more explosive combinations with their footwork due to the common trends of that time. As fighters moved into the 1970's & 1980's, the fighter with more than 100 fights on their record became rarer & rarer. Thus, (to go along with better sports science) the super athlete became a more common occurrence. Note that athleticism & skills are different things. Thus, Sugar Ray Leonard was more athletic than Charley Burley, but Burley had additional skills & techniques considered uncommon/ lost by the time Leonard was around. But in all cases...Elite level is elite level...whether it's the 1920's or 2018.

TainoMantis I'd say devolved since the 90s. FIghters used to have extensive amatuer careers and lengthy active pro careers (8-10 fights a year). Upwards of 200+ amatuer fights, 60-80 pro record if not over 100. And those numbers go up the further you go back to towards the 1930s-40s. Fast forward to today limited amatuer experience and pro careers that are 1 maybe 2 fights a year once you crack the top 10. With a 30 fight pro career seems normal when back in the day that might have been your first 2 years. Now the ehalth and pay and well being of the fighters is better today than back then.......but the skill level has decreased ....in my opinion with a few exceptions. LIke Lomo and a few others

Burleys style of boxing was frowned upon in his time. His defensive style basically kept him from fighting most all the top fighters of his time. Not because he wasn't good enough, but because many feared he would make some of the top names in boxing at the time look foolish. Possibly the greatest fighter to never win a world title.

For those of you who say Robinson ducked him, it's utter nonsense. Look at their records. They didn't even fight in the same division at the same time.

andijw79 Burley was a natural welterweight who fought bigger guys because other welterweights (like Ray Robinson) were avoiding him. When he tried to get the fight with Robinson, Burley was still able to make 147 and the fight could have still happened. Robinson just didn’t want to fight him and chose to fight guys less threatening. Some of those less threatening guys were also significantly bigger than Charley Burley. Like Jake LaMotta for example.
