The one and only....Angel Robinson Garcia.

Post by Expug »

One of Boxings all time Globetrotting wild men. He had a final record of 134-80-21 , to the best of anyones recollection. Wild drinker and huge skirt chaser, never once pulled out of a fight , fought some of the best and had some very good wins. But his biggest claim to fame was fighting in so many differint locations around the world. Algeria, U.S., Denmark, Belgium, Canada, Puerto Rico, Venezuala, Panama, Spain, France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Ivory Coast, England, Jamaica, Tunisia, Finland, and Mexico. Unbelievable. Anyone have any info on Garcia?

The Argentinian Lightweight Vicente Derado was another great globetrotter, was nicknamed "Gitano" (Gypsy) because he was always traveling. He beat three unificated World Champions: Nicolino Locche (the first winner over Locche), Carlos "Teo" Cruz and Carlos "Morocho" Hernández; when he fought agains "Flash" Elorde for the World Junior Lightweight Title, he was robbed

I don't know why, but when I thinks in Robinson García, I remains Sugar Boy Nando
