Yeah I'd have to favor Bivins.

Robinson, as great as he is ultimately just isn't strong enough for Light Heavyweight. He could take some particularly weak Light Heavyweight Champs throughout history, but he's not gonna be beating the better guys of that division. He could compete with most I think, but he'd have a lot of trouble with Light Heavies in general. That's why he only tried it once.

Jimmy Bivins was a very talented boxer. He would be bigger than Sugar Ray Robinson. Bivins by decision or late KO.
