    My thoughts exactly, i've been typing in Charley Burley interview to youtube for the last ten minutes but it's not happening. The name of the person who made the vid is called Mr. Burley46, could be a relative?

    Dont know...says his profile is from New Zealand.

    The guy talking to Burley appears to be August Wilson..a playwright/poet from the same area as Charley.

    Teeto,interesting clip of Charley Burley...Some thoughts of mine....My father went to St. Nicholas Arena in 1942,to see a prelim fighter he was interested in...He came home after the bouts and raved about the headliner bout in which a Charley Burley kod some guy in one round..His opponents name I forgot, but my father never forgotCharley Burley...I could have gone to the fight with my father,but declined to go Too bad...One other sidenote...When I was in the Navy, I met a sailor who claimed that he once beat Charley Burley years ago..His name was Jimmy Leto...Years later I found out that Leto did whip the great Charley Burley,indeed...Small world...
