Ivorian Boxing Legend Robinson Celebrated

The 81-year-old boxing icon was honored at the Palais des Sports, the same venue where he fought Elisha O'Bed in April 1976. Robinson lost that bout by a narrow decision but cemented his legacy as one of Ivory Coast's greatest fighters. saltysenoritaaz.com
