" Pound for Pound, the best."
The claim has been used to
describe many boxers, but

"You always say"
I'll quit when I start to slide
and then one morning
you wake up and realize
you've done slid."
Sugar Ray Robinson
" Ask fight fans who the greatest boxes is and they would probably say, pound for pound, Sugar Ray Robinson. Robinson was poetry in motion, a peerless puncher who elevated the sport to an art form. He moved beautifully and punched in seamless combinations, rendering adversaries senseless with surgeon like precision. Movie star looks with a magnificent body, Robinson cut a dashing figure in and out the ring. Sugar Ray was so classy, people gladly paid money just to watch him jump rope. Virtually unbeatable as a welterweight Robinson gave up the 147 pound crown and went on to win the middleweight title an unprecedented five times."
