    I think its guys who dressed up and got haircuts the same as Fitz and Jeffries. Not the real people.

    If it is then my rating of them just plummeted...

    From the other Jeffries/Fitz footage I have seen, they fight nothing like that.

    Back in the day they didn't have live tv coverage of the fights so the action would be wired to various venues and they would have actors (probably real boxers) act the fight out for audiences. This seems to be what happened here.
