Sugar Ray Robinson- skipping rope

So I've been working on my skipping rope routine, which I tend to suck at. And one of the main images in my head was of Floyd Mayweather's routine, which inspires me.

Then I looked up Ray Robinson's work- which is insane. For fight sport fans of all types, I hope you enjoy.

(BTW, I seem to be getting a bit better at it. Even skipping rope while I wait for the bus to work)

I've always found major enjoyment and a sense of awe watching some of the all time great boxers train and hone that one specially.

great stuff.

Keep in mind too that he's way past his prime their as well. He was actually on vacation in France and doing some performing as a dancer. He felt "the urge to fight again" and had a magnificent comeback. True GOAT

IIRC Robinson made a brief and unsuccessful foray into professional dancing in his initial, short-lived retirement

Greatest boxer of ALL time.

ray robinson was the greatest talent in boxing that ever was ..... ali was close behind .... then ray leonard , hagler , pac, marciano and others

mayweather and roy jones jr are last in the top ten list in my opinion

i think ray robinson was the best athlete all time in boxing + ali and leonard copied and borrowed heavily from the original ray robinson

Hopefully one day we'll have a caliber of fighter akin to Ray Robinson in MMA. Its very possible, I believe

However, it will more than likely have to be someone with a similar background. Genetically as well as socially.

Sport's still young :-)

Superb. I love this guy! Ray Robinson was quite the tap dancer as well...........and you can see that style of  footwork on display in this clip.

Guys, guys, c'mon now. You are losing your way here. This thread is about his sweetness, and this is no place for the petty vile you spew at one another. This is a place of worship, not hate. You come here to pay homage to the undisputed greatest fighter of all time.



Or you fuck off!
