    That Schmelling-Santa footage is crazy. Look at Max come in like Dempsey and close the gap. Weird shooting style/editing too from the camera man, parts almost look staged at a later time.

    It was actually a staged fight from the movie "Liebe im Ring".

    Yeah, that's the look of it.

    Neat, though, the style that Max used in this one.

    I was gonna dig that up after the mention of Santa. He looks like a monster, for sure.

    Liston, Tyson, Lewis all were scary.
