    Has anyone explored if there are any old boxing flims on Rotoscope? I do believe the rotoscope which cranks out many still photos quickly in sequence to make animation the action was invented about 100 years ago.

    Yes, Ive found some. For the most part they are just short excerpts of films we already have. One I have is Jeffries-Sharkey but Ive never looked to see if its footage we dont already have.

    I think I have seen that one. Its a 3 second clip. Sharkey charges in and throws a mean hook, but Jeffries ducks it! The clip was inserted in the movie, " The Night They Raided Minsky's.
