"Robinson in knocking Chavez out in eleven rounds landed 404 out of 732 thrown. In other words, he had very little trouble finding the target.
101 out of 290 for Chavez who despite moments never looked comfortable in there and could not figure out how to win the fight."
'His punching was very accurate. He was very sharp, defensively and offensively at the same time.'
"Let's go to Larry Merchant in the ring."

I was never a killer, like some fighters. I never enjoyed knocking out a guy who I knew had no chance to beat me." Sugar Ray Robinson
