However, Ray was a little less convincing in round 6. ![]() Ray came out in good form, scoring two good left hooks right off, backing LaMotta up. Still, throwing a decent punch every now and then doesn't winĦ. Although Ray jabbed throughout, LaMotta kept him offset and backing up with occasional left hooks.

Just 3 rounds into the fight, and already Ray's sheer aggression and blinding speed won him the round, and there was nothing LaMotta could do.
