    I have just about every fight on tape from the mid 80's to about 2001. I stopped tapeing fights with the advent of DVD. I have boxes and boxes of VCR tapes that are probably going to be worthless from deterioration in the next few years. Its ashame, but I cant bring myself to transferring them all to DVD, it would tak years!

    I meant they wouldnt work anymore. Some of the tapes are already getting a little blurry. Part of that is me watching them a thousand times and part from the tapes starting to deteriorate.

    list is not complete, in a months time, I going to go thown all my fights and see whats what, time long, put unname fights listed ete.


    I hardly deal with the modren era, when a big fight comes, Sure I record that like a Kelly Palivk fight or WK or VK, but I dont relly put plenty of time for that, like I do the old fights.

    I have just under 4000 with around 2500 on dvd, plus another 100+ discs of docos etc.

    I have the career sets (some full, some partial) of James Toney, Bernard Hopkins, Roy Jones and Manny Pacquiao, and I will shortly purchase the partial career set of Roberto Duran.

    I have a folder with around 50 discs each with 2 or 3 selected fights on, ranging from Ray Robinson and Carmen Basilio to Edwin Valero and Juan Manuel Lopez.

    Not the biggest collection on ESB I'm sure, but a pretty decent one I think.

    i got a fairly big collection IMO but some of the guys i have traded with is huge like leon.

    I got about maybe 250-300 DVDs ranging from Jung Koo Chang to Alan Rudkin to Jermaine Taylor to Tiny Palacious generally just a mix of fighters with the legends best few fights on film.

    Got 3 career sets from buying

    Ray Leonard
    Floyd Mayweather
    Arturo Gatti

    and have ammassed my own Sweet Pea career set

    I did have a huge list of fights which was about 1000 but my Hard Drive broke and i havent been bothered going through them all
