That's a great shout.
The 2 greatest p4p boxers IMHO fighting each other.
It's just a shame that Armstrong was past his best.
Then again, I don't think he would have been big enough to beat a great big welterweight like Robinson anyway, but it would have been interesting to see him try.
Armstrong hit a great run of victories when he won titles at nearly 4 weight at the same time but before that and after he was ordinary.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
