Post by Nile4000 »

Circa 1952. Say Robinson beats Maxim and Walcott beats Marciano. And Ray decides to take the ultimate step to fight Joe. Could he pull it off?

Robinson wrote about this in his book(Sugar Ray) and said he wanted no part of Walcott or Ezzard Charles.Gainsford suggested it to him.
