    Question Charley Burley vs ...

    I know this is a case of pure speculation but I do wonder how middleweights of today, yesteryear, or yester yester...yesteryear would fare against him.
    He was a road warrior, a technical purist, a minimalist and, heck he could bang too if he wanted to. I'd be giddy as a school girl if I could see him against Gene Fullmer or Henry Armstrong, or against Robinson as he was suppose to fight on more than one occasion. I really can't pick out a winner though I think he’d have a far easier time against fighters who tend to lead on the front end.
    I'd like your thoughts about this hypothetical bout.

    I have heard a lot about Charley Burley but never seen any actual footage of him.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    This video was created a while back by someone on this forum. It's a very nice break down of his skills. As for videos of him fighting sadly there's only just one fight that was taped and it is used in this video.

    Are the full fight:

    Burley beats Fullmer 9 times outta 10
    Armstrong & Robinson are even money fights, imo he tops Armstrong

    I do too. Too many trainers simply aren't. There's no reason Paul Williams shouldn't be the best man from Walter to middle except for his like training.
