Sugar Ray Robinson was a bum with no heart. He ducked Burley and refused to box at heavyweight!
(Although actually, the Burley thing is true...)
i used to think the burley thing was true too, but have heard different stories. One is that burley was lined up but lost a fight leading up to it. It's all so long ago who knows what happened. I think I remember a story with robinson negotiating for 3 fights where he loses one wins one, burley wouldn't go along with it or something, could be very wrong about that, heard so many stories over the years sometimes they muddle together.
