Xa ndabona ifilimu ndandicaphukile, uLaMotta uxelele udliwanondlebe naye. Ndijonga ukubonakala imbi kuyo. Emva koko ndaqonda ukuba yinyani. Kwakunjalo ke. Ndandingenguye umgqakhwe wobugwenxa… Ayiyiyo le ndlela ndiyiyo ngoku kodwa yindlela endandiyiyo ngoko.

Abathathu abalwa nzima endakha ndalwa nabo yayinguSugar Ray Robinson, uSugar Ray Robinson kunye noSugar Ray Robinson, utshilo uLaMotta.
Ndalwa neShukela amaxesha amaninzi, ndiyamangaliswa ukuba andinasifo sikashukela, watsho kumgca osetyenziswa rhoqo.

ILaMotta ilahlekile kumjikelo wesine ngokuchasene neFox ngoNovemba 1947 eMadison Square Garden. Walimala elinde iimfazwe ezili-10 de kwafika isihloko sakhe.
Ngomnyaka we-1949, uLaMotta wagqiba ekubeni ngumlo wobuntshatsheli obuphakathi xa uMarcel Cerdan wayeka kwisitulo sakhe emva komjikelo we-10.
Imbethi manqindi yayidume ngesilevu sayo esomeleleyo kunye nokukwazi ukufumana isohlwayo.
Iiplanga zange zindikhathaze kangako, wakhe waxelela iTimes yaseLondon (nge Reuters ).
URobinson ushiye abantwana bakhe abathandathu kwimitshato yakhe esixhenxe. Kubo bonke abantu, uRobinson wayengoyena mntu ubalaseleyo kumtshato wesithandathu.
