Ray Robinson KO 1 Rafael Ruelas
Las Vegas, Nevada - Ray Robinson took 121 seconds to dispose of the WBC & IBF number one contender Rafael Ruelas last night.
"I could see that my first punch hurt Rafael, so I decided to go for it."
Robinson came out slugging, immediately landing some savage left hooks and right crosses.
Ruelas unable to change his style of fighting right in front of his opponent, took a terrible amount of damage for such a short period.
An easy target throughout Ruelas went down from one of Robinson's numerous body shots and was unable to beat the count.
"I didn't get a good enough look at him to give an opinion, but I'm sure if it'd gone some I'd have found out."
