Fights you want to see on You Tube but cannot find.

Nico Thomas vs Samuth Sithnaruepol I and II,then Muhammad Rachman vs Daniel Reyes..

3 title fights crucial for Indonesian boxing history,yet there's no full fight clips of it.

There's some clip of Nico Thomas vs Samuth Sithnaruepol,but the rest is gone.

 

Yeah I heard that the night before the fight Cobb was drunk and doing cocaine, a definite recipe for disaster even against a journeyman fighter.

 

Ah, I hadn’t heard that he did that in such close proximity to the fight. Crazy and def. an invitation for disaster.

 

I think that’s the one about which Cobb said:

They called me a fat, cowardly, cocaine-snorting, fight-fixing cheat. Who you calling fat???!!!”

 

I’d like to see Larry Holmes vs Ibar Arrington.

I assume ABC/Don King had to have taped it — it was on the undercard of Norton-Young, with Jerry Quarry-Lorenzo Zanon as the chief support that I think was televised.

 

LaMotta vs. Billy Fox
Robinson vs. Levine

If they even exist. You never know what's going to show up on youtube. I'm shocked at some of the rare footage that's been uploaded on there.

 

There are a lot of Joe Hipp fights that were televised but never made it onto YouTube that I would love to see.

 

it is almost IMPROBABLE that no footage of Robinson Vs Levine exists today, that fight is SOMEWHERE

 

I’d love it if Saddler-Pep I were to show up someday.

And any heretofore unseen Sammy Angott action.

Yes, probably in someone's attic and they don't even know what they have nor care. There was a time they said no footage exists of Robinson as a welterweight, that eventually turned out not to be true..... I'm amazed at some of the finds on youtube.

 

For the longest time I couldn't find Shavers vs Lyle, but there are several uploads now. I later found out from a YouTube video (I think RichTheFightHistorian?) that it wasn't even officially filmed.

The footage comes, supposedly, from a guy in the audience with an 8 millimeter camera. (Or whatever portable full motion camera someone is most likely to have access to in the early seventies; I'm not sure about that last part without checking.)
