I got that info directly from a Sugar Ray Robinson Documentary, I think its called "Bright Lights Dark Shadows". Its STRAIGHT from SRR's mouth. If he didn't say it himself, I'd be skeptical to believe it.
On the subject of Max Baer deaths, did you guys count Earnie Schaff (sp)? I think he was killed in a bout with Primo Carnera, but most historians attributed it to the blows that he suffered in his fight with Max Baer.
David Lemieux = Future MW Champ and P4P King
He died as the result of 18 unanswered punches. That says enough. Boxing was banned from being aired on TV for a few years after that fight. It was that grusome.Originally Posted by THE Bigragu
Psalm 144: Blessed be the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle
There was a young fighter who had his face hammered to pieces a few years back. It turned out that the opponent had no stuffing in his gloves. A while after the kid took his own life. His father said that he had never recovered after the fight. I'm sure somebody on here knows what I'm talking about. In that case it was pretty much murder. GBH at least.
Found a link actually. Absolutely shocking.

Ohh.. Hackey not sure if its the same dude ..
But that reminds me of oba carr's trainer.. He was banned from working the corner in most states for removing padding from his fighters glove which resulted in fatality..
What was his trainers name though..
Panama lewis? Was that him? I know it was panama something?!

Yeah, it was Panama Lewis, who is one of, if not the, biggest piece of shit in the boxing world (and that's saying something!)Originally Posted by Tito_BHB
Apparently he's only been banned in certain areas, like you said. I actually saw him on TV not too long ago, wearing that stupid fucking hat of his... As you can probably tell, I absolutely loathe the bastard.
Lol..Dont blame youOriginally Posted by CFH

Since we're on the subject there is NO DOUBT in my mind that Lewis gave Pryor some type of substance in that bottle.Originally Posted by CFH
Judging by his track record, there's no reason to believe he didn't. Which is a shame because Pryor was a great fighter and one crazy MoFo, and this hurts his legacy.Originally Posted by CutMeMicK
I never heard of this incident?Originally Posted by CutMeMicK
Would you tell me what had supposedly gone down?

I'm not sure about the rules for posting links, so if this is not allowed I appologize in advance.
Here's a story about Aaron Pryor, the issue with Panama Lewis and the black bottle is covered somewhere near the middle.

Arguello at the time of the fight was beating Pryor to the punch and was getting the better share of the punches. If I'm not mistaken in the break of the 9th round Panama Lewis instructs one of his corner men to give him the bottle "THE ONE HE MIXED" well you don't mix water with water.
Lewis stated that he said those words to just give Pryor some type of mental edge to make him think he was suplementing him with some type of substance to give him energy. Pryor comes out of his corner with flying colors and as fresh as a daisy. For the following rounds Arguello lands some of the most brutal punches he had ever landed in his career at one point and this I can sware on I thought Pryors head would snap off. But Pryor didn't even blink took all the shots for at least 3 rds.
Heres a short video on that incident:

Also suprisingly enough the comission forgot to take post urine samples from both fighters. How this happens is beyond me.
Tito_BHB heres the fight incase you haven't seen it.
