    What are some fights that you just can't find footage of? Maybe the fight was never recorded, it hasn't been released, or the fight just got lost over time. "Lost Fights"

    Samuel Peter vs 360 pounder Gabe Brown

    Pelos Garcia vs Chop Chop Corley

    I worked with Gabe Brown when he fought on the Harold Sconiers---Kevin Johnson undercard in Georgia. He gave me a copy of the Peter fight, I will get it back from the gym owner & upload it to youtube

    That would be great. I heard it was a great fight but a video never surfaced.

    obviously there's footage of it, but I've not been able to find a full video of Rios v. Abril on video sites

    I believe there is no film of Chuck Wepner vs that bear he fought. (There are photos.)

    There are several Joe Louis fights I have looked for and not found or could only find a small clip when I looked.

    Greb is the mystery man...

    I wish there was more footage of Jack Johnson, Sam Langford, Joe Jeannette, and Sam McVea and their many fights with each other.

    Apparently there was once footage of Greb that has perished.

    Phillip N'Dou vs Yonnie Vargas. Sugar Ray Leonard was raving about N'Dou after seeing him beat down Vargas from ringside. It was on an untelevised undercard on HBO.

    Oh, I remember never finding any footage despite looking of Jessie Vargas making Vivian Harris quit on the stool after round 1.

    Johnny Ould was buried this week and he beat Jimmy Tibbs in a South London v East London superfight - apparently! I wasn't born, but i knew the Oulds from the pubs around London and went to school with their kids.

    There might be footage somewhere - i just haven't seen it.

    Harry Greb is the most famous one of course.
