    Yes. And they only uploaded a compressed 480p version of the video. If they wanted, they could upload a 1080p version too, which would be astounding.

    Is it just me, or does Gene Tunney look worse with the clearer picture. Physically, he looks soft.

    Every punch looks soft to me, unless it's slow motion footage

    Tunney was a master at his craft. Absolute pleasure to watch.

    The combination that Dempsey put him down with looked murderous.

    Thoughts ..

    exceptional find ...

    Both guys were terrific ..

    The faded version of Dempsey put up a better and gamer fight against a terrific Tunney than Manny Paq did against Floyd Mayweather.

    This is the first time I seen the look on Tunney's face after the KD, he looked hurt, for a few seconds but you could see him look at the ref. and wisely took a long count. No doubt in my mind that he could've gotten up in time.

    Tunney's footwork is among the best the division has seen.

    Boy howdy, Jack likes getting his head involved in the action. And I thought Vander was bad.
