'Sugar' Ray Robinson, a boxing legend often mentioned alongside Muhammad Ali, is celebrated for his exceptional career, which included winning 174 out of 199 fights and becoming a world champion in two weight divisions.
1951 was a standout year for Robinson, earning him The Ring Magazine's 'Fighter of the Year' award after reclaiming the middleweight title from Randolph Turpin and achieving multiple victories, including a renowned TKO win over Jake LaMotta.
Despite a brief setback with Turpin, Robinson's perseverance and skill allowed him to reclaim his title later that year.
His achievements in 1951 remain a significant highlight in boxing history.
