There have been tons of them, doubt anything new

Something about Robinson that I learned from guys that saw it...Well after he retired, he'd be at the Main St gym in downtown LA jumping rope in a vinyl suit, like he was cutting weight, and he was sparring with guys like Ernie Lopez into the early 70s.

Probably didn't do much for his dementia.

He viciously beat his wife, numerous times. Great fighter, but seemed to be a real bitch-ass outside the ring. Even his own kids said he treated them like shit.
