    Oh you are speaking my language here with Chiaverini-Ross.

    I’ll add Ray Leonard vs Randy Shields, which I think I’ve seen like one round of shaky handheld-from-the-stands film.

    Danny Lopez-Sean O’Grady.

    I have a fair copy of the Cooper v Miller fight, so it must exist.
    Galfi v Catley, I believe that you are looking for their first fight. Galfi w rsc7, I only have their second fight won by Catley P12

    Charles-Moore 3
    Pep-Saddler 2
    Robinson-Gavilán 2

    You have the number 1 and number 2 light heavyweights in history, the number 1 and 2 featherweights in history and the number 1 welterweight in history against arguably a top 5 all time welterweight great.

    All fights take place in their respective primes (or near enough in Pep’s case) and by all accounts they were great fights too.

    Matthew Saad Muhammad-Billy Douglas (Buster´s dad) Strange this fight is not available since it was chief support for Duran-Viruet II.
    By all accounts another great Saad fight where he comes back from a 5th round knockdown to stop Douglas in the next round.

    Another vote for Sean O´Grady-Danny Lopez slugfest. Supposedly Grady´s fights were recorded by his promoter (his mother!) and Danny repeatedly asked for a copy but no luck.

    Tony Zale-Rocky Graziano I and a proper copy of the rematch.
