Agreed Sugar Ray Robinson is considered the greatest p4p boxer of all time but as you said he was on a tour of Europe and that was very tiring for him. He avenged that loss in dramatic fashion which shows that he may not have lost if it was not for the travel.

It is a great win for Turpin, no doubt about that.
