RIP SUGAR RAY ROBINSON🖤
Go, Sugar Ray!!
Can we get the whole special? It is absolutely fascinating
Some group should restore the special. The one and only Gene Kelly explains his theory and practice of dance. Fabulous.
Sugar Ray got that soul.
you can't take your eyes off Sugar Ray!!! wow!
Amazing and surprising
Ray Sugar Robinson the best!!!
The great sugar ray 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Robinson the master of rhythm
Wow truly lost for words black king
Look into Sonny Liston's career and life, that man deserves to have his career reassessed, I think he's the greatest heavyweight I've ever seen. The sport was spoiled with talent back then. You had guys like Ray, Sonny, Ali and so many more in such a short period of time. Absolutely amazing.
This is everything right here.
One of the coolest videos I’ve ever just witnessed
🔥 🔥 🔥 Absolutely Amazing to see the footwork outside the ring then watch a fight and see the footwork in the ring. 👏 😮
Amazing on all levels thanks for the upload .
Stay healthy 👍👏🌹😎
Wow, Kelly's keeping up with Sugar Ray pretty nicely there...
wtf? do you actually know who is gene kelly?
@@sodapop83 Go back to sleep, mate.
@@sodapop83 He's joking.
Very funny.
Rest easy champ🫡

Go sugar daddy go 🤪❤️.
The goat
Le plus grand boxeur de tout les temps ray sugart robinson
CrazZ Hot"", MindBlown.
Not only was Robinson the greatest fighter of all time (and still is) but also his dancing is better than Gene Kelly's in this sequence!
You're hilarious.
@@susanlloyd7395 - no he isn't; he's accurate...and probably intentionally so by the generous Mr. Kelly. No sane person would claim that either man is better at the other's primary profession, so Gene doesn't need to "show up" Sugar Ray...its not necessary. Pipe down.
@@waldolydecker8118 Thank you.
I wasn't suggesting for a second that Robinson was a better dancer but I do think his movement is more fluid than Kelly's in this sequence.
@@ppuh6tfrz646 Yeah, Kelly had an amazing ability to make his partner shine. Kelly was typically the athletic, fluid dancer, but knew in this routine that his job was to keep them on time for the steps, so he's a little stiffer than usual to ensure that Ray stays close to the choreography's timing by toning down his own (Gene's, I mean) stylistic dancing and keeping it simple.
@@Thor-Orion Absolute rubbish.
Gene Kelly looks like a 10-year-old boy next to Sugar Ray, and Ray was only a middleweight! How small was Gene?
5’7”
Middleweights aren't necessarily short, Ray was almost six feet tall.
What year is this from?
1958
Sugar Ray my favourite sportsman ever AND -incidentally- "the greatest" boxer of all time. Ali and the rest of the other claimants pale compared with Robinson's all round pugilistic talents.
Ray is probably the greatest, I'd say there are a few in the same ballpark as Ray in terms of magnificence in the ring. If you want someone similarly athletic I'd say Roy Jones Jr is amazing, but for a different stylistic type of boxer Carlos Monzon was an amazing boxer-puncher.
@@Thor-Orion Yes, Ray my # 1-no doubt for me: Tiger/Charles/Langford/Greb /Ketchel would have given him one hell of a fight amigo: all of them great fighters in their day.
RIP one and all.
@@brucejackson4219 as far as who I actually have #1 pound for pound it's Henry Armstrong.
@@brucejackson4219 I happen to have Ray as like 1B to Armstrong's 1A. I have a hard time deciding between the two. Hank was Ray before Ray. The invincible lower weight guy.
@@Thor-Orion As I recall, he was a favourite of my father. I have a soft spot for Ezzard Charles-what a boxer/fighter he was.
This video quality is so bad that i dont even know that sugar ray is black
