The legendary rivalry between Randy Turpin and Sugar Ray Robinson in 1951 produced two of the most dramatic and historic World Middleweight Championship bouts in boxing history. September 12, 1951, at the Polo Grounds, New York City. Sugar Ray Robinson defeated Randy Turpin via 10th-round TKO. Just 64 days later, the two met in front of a massive crowd of over 61,000 fans in New York. A laser-focused Robinson dictated the early rounds, but Turpin roared back, pushing Robinson to the limit and opening a deep, blinding gash over Robinsons left eye by the 10th round. Knowing the ringside doctor was on the verge of stopping the fight and ending his career, Robinson launched a furious, desperate attack. He dropped Turpin with a devastating right hand and relentlessly swarmed him along the ropes. With just 8 seconds remaining in the 10th round, the referee stepped in to stop the fight, allowing Robinson to reclaim his middleweight crown.
