I know Robinson had a 40-0 record when he lost to La Motta, but I was always under the impression that was their first fight. Didn't know they fought before. La Motta wasn't knocked down until Danny Nardico did it at the end of 1952.
the only person who ever knocked Lamotta off his feet was an unknown Italian-American named Danny Nardico. Lamotta never got KO'd. in their last fight, Sugar Ray didn't win by KO, it was the ref who stopped the fight late in the 13 round with Lamotta still on his feet. Lamotta beat Robinson once, and got robbed of a victory when he knocked out Robinson cold, but the bell rang during the 10count. Sugar Ray needed to be rushed to the ER but Jake lost the match.
@123calisshit123 Was that fight on record tho cuz if not than officially hes never bin knocked down, and i saw that fight between robinson and lamotta the knock down happened in the 8th round and ya he was saved by the bell but that was the rules back then he still went on to fight 2 more rounds and did great, and every time a fighter gets rocked like that he better get checked
@bcibibcibcpCB actually he was stopped once at the end of his career but way past his time against a young fighter. but yeh i see ur point hard to believe there was a fighter behind that smile, let alone the greatest
Really? Didn't Lamotta knock this guy out twice? Once Robinson was saved by the bell, another time Jake knocked him out of the ring. Robinson was a better boxer but Jake was the better fighter. Robinson knows it, he may have won the boxing matches so many times but he never knocked Jake down.

I like Dunphy as a commentator but the way he reels off the stats makes him sound like a robot.

I would put my money on Jake LaMotta to beat Robinson if the fight was in a phone booth, but not in a 20sq feet boxing ring.

If Lamotta & Robinson were in their prime today, nobody would know (or care) who the hell Mayweather or Pacquiao is.

lamotta never knocked out robinson, he beat him once out of 6 fights on a decision. robinson did however knock out lamotta in their last fight.
