Yes, great find Mr.DagoWop! Really enjoyed watching these!

 

It makes a big difference for sure!

Wonderful find Mr DagoWop .
The difference is like night and day.
Thanks for sharing.

You sure they didn't use a modern fight, and faked it as a Dempsey fight?

Whats with all the combos and head movement?

 

This is what makes the information age so special.
Just when you think you seen everything, a gem like this drops.

There is always something more to look forward to over the horizon.

 

Colour does make a huge difference, I agree. That and not watching clips that look like they're in fast forward. But I enjoyed that and I confess my appreciation of the old timers is not the same as Dago's or Reznick's. Couldn't get the documentary from the link so will have a gander. Thanks for sharing that find.

That boy Dempsey looks like he could have been quite a star if he'd only had a bit of charisma.

 

Watching short excerpts like this in color, I wonder how much would not be spectacular watching the first round of Dempsey vs. Willard colorized !.....

 

I looked into the company that does the Colorizing work.
Apparently this is going to be a 6 part series, with 6 different decades.

The 30's episode will most definitely have Louis in color.
They said it took them 9 months to make this episode, so it could be a while.

 

Yeah man, I wish they did that one too.
I can tell it's the most difficult one to colorize, but I was honestly impressed with their work on the Firpo footage, and all the footage. It's very well done.

Imagine a team like this dedicated to boxing.

 

Indeed.
The big problem with this, and Klompton alluded to this some time, is that the speed varies dramatically.

When I colorized footage myself, I noticed that even with the highest quality Joe Louis footage, sometimes it takes 4 frames for the image to proceed, and sometimes it takes only 1. And it varies at a crazy rate.

If there was a team like the one that worked on this documentary, dedicated solely to boxing footage restoration, they could do wonders. My restoration attempts are little league compared to these guys.
