Shame theres so little fight footage of him around.
He had a dream he killed his opponent the night before the fight and was so freaked out the next morning he refused to fight so the promoters got a vicar to go to see him and talk him round.
He knocked the guy cold and killed him in exactly the same way as his dream.
I wonder if someone somewhere in the world is sitting on a goldmine of Robinson fight footage they dont even know they have thats never been seen before or if we will only ever see the few bits and pieces that are about now?
