    That is not true. Burley would have fought Robinson for his rent. Robinson avoided the entire Murderers Row fighting Wade after he had been retired for over two years.

    Well Robinson was reluctant ... and Burley didn't blame him.

    No one fought those guys ... HIGH risk and low reward/pay fights. But I think Robinson should've fought at least one of them ... the opportunity had to be there at some point. He can fight Jake LaMotta 6 times but not Burley or any of the Murderers Row guys even once?

    Great input u guys. Here is a few more that could have been made:

    Esparragoza v Fenech

    McGuigan v Nelson

    Mosley v Mayweather (late 90's)

    Whitaker v Quartey

    Pedroza V Lopez

    Starling v Brown 2

    ^ Floyd said that he offered Mosley a fight in 1999/2000 or the early 2000s but the Mosley camp rejected it.

    Floyd would beat him then just like he beat him in '10 IMO
