18 Celebrities That Vanished Without a Trace or Explanation

‘Sweet’ Jimmy Robinson

Imagine if you will the opportunity to compete one on one with the greatest name your favorite sport has ever seen. That is what happened to Sweet Jimmy Robinson in 1961 when he stepped into the ring with Muhammad Ali. Robinson had been brought in as a last-minute replacement, and he would be knocked out in short order, lasting just 94 seconds in the ring.

Robinson would go on to vanish in 1979 shortly after a photographer had found him broke, potentially homeless, and addicted to alcohol. If Sweet Jimmy is still alive today, he is embracing his privacy.
