The undisputed GOAT edition.
Will we ever see someone as GOAT as SRR again?

I dont think so, boxing techniques had been on the decline since the late 50's, but the at same time of Robinson fighting years there was Ezzard Charles, another top 5 GOAT.

2.Langford
3.Robinson
4.Amstrong
5. Charles

Resume is GOAT, his trainning footage shows the windmill monicker and good defensive moves, paper articles mention how great he was, he deserves the benefit of the doubt in my opinion.
Also he fought great black fighters and was a multiple weight fighter.
If Robinson would have been fought some of the following names he could have been the #1 GOAT: Charley Burley, Cocoa Kid, Holman William, Lloyd Marshall, Archie Moore, Ezzard Charles, Eddie Booker, Jack Chase or Bert Lytell

Also im not hipster by name (lol), i really study pre 60's fighters to box, this principles for me are better than the modern school of boxing.
Rear hip folded, slight rise in the lead shoulder, head off the centre line, fencing lead hand, right hand at chin height to parry punches, focus on pro active defense, etc.

I think Mayweather gets the decision over Robinson at 147.

Depends on the judges mang, judges from pre and 90's hated mayweather's style of high defense.
