Gene Fullmer

vs.

Sugar Ray Robinson

1 May 1957

Chicago Stadium

 

ROBINSON REGAINS TITLE

Sugar Ray knocks out Gen Fullmer in 1:27 of fifth round...Is first man to win a title four times.

When in 1946, New York's Ray Robinsonbecame the recognized welterweight champion of the world, ring-wise men said, " Here is the best man for his pounds in the boxing profession."

Now, in the year 1957, with Robinson 37 years of age, in the aftermath of his five round knockout of Gene Fullmer, it is conceivable that Ray is the greatest technican of all time.That he is one of the greatest fighters of the last fifty years goes without saying.

-Nat Loubet. The Ring. July, 1957
