    You won't learn anything new but there is some footage that at least I have never seen before contained within. Worth your time...

    The home video stuff is great. Just priceless little clips like Dempsey and Tunney sparring in their suits in the 40's, or Marciano color home footage, great training clips... And I don't think I have ever seen more of the Dempsey-Carpentier fight than the KO. At least I don't recall seeing it...

    Cheers for this Seamus, should keep me fairly entertained on my day off. I also thought it was pretty funny the way Larry Holmes wasn't mentioned in the intro.

    I got a load of pre-fight footage and (I think) at least a round and a bit of the fight. I'll upload it for ya' if you want?

    Sure. Honestly, I have been that interested in the fight, as it seemed such a fait accompli, the most interesting part being the promotion and the spectacle. But I definitely like to see more.
