One of my favorites, from back in the day, and a Florida guy to boot.

Here's Robinson in his prime: 1991 WBF Championship

He won his debut, didnt he? Beat Beckles & Padilla at Niagara pro, 90 I think.

By underrated I mean post wbf everyone was swept under carpet, incl Strydom, the Quinns, Baker. Only Ferrigno survived.

What illness did he get, Okami?

steady Eddie was one of the best ever......awesome density and very powerful looking......I miss seeing his type of build up onstage.....now a days, the guys look so bad. IMHO

Yep.  He won the starting job after Dorian graduated.     ;D

Nasser was the (at least) 3-time uncrowned Mr. Southwest Athletic Conference Player Of The Year (even though he didn't attend Grambling, much less play football there).

Isn't Eddie Robinson the guy Mike Katz was stocking for some time? It seemed that every time Katz MC'd at a show, he would mention Eddie's name when talking about a young thick bodybuilder...Katz should have been brought up on charges for bringing his name up so much...

Idf the dude is 5"7 with amrs like this and they measure 20.5 inches.

Then there is no way that a 5"4 Priest has 22+'s
