    Yes.

    The film of the 2nd fight is taken from a home movie way back in the stands.

    I'd luv to see this, hope it doesn't dissapoint, apparently Graziano gets the **** beaten outta him then stops Zale dramatically, no?

    you dont see much lads.

    just a 2 min clip really you see maybe 2 mins of pure action and 30 seconds of the entrances and announcements.

    M2S it doesnt look to be filmed that far back

    It's far enough. :D

    It shows Zale backing Graziano against the ropes an unloading punches on him at one point, correct?

    It's a shame that you can only see the beginning of the end but not the finish. Graziano lands some wild right hands and it seems to be quite a battle but it's tough to judge based on just 2 minutes of the fight.

    Heck, the very fact that those 2 minutes exist are enough for me!

    It's a damn shame that no film whatsoever of the first fight exists.

    The third fight was one of the very best I've ever seen in my life. So much action. I could only imagine the first two!

    yeh it is far enough. RB has a longer clip in better quality from higher up its about 7 mins long but it aint for trade.

    I think your right i've watched it afew times this is another excuse to watch it again.

    yeh it is a shame it looks edited though so there might still be the full fight somewhere. It does look an alright battle.

    ki have the radio broadcast of the trilogy and this clip

    would be willing to trade with it for the 3rd fight especuiially i have seen it but dont have it

    but it will take me a while i still have to finish some copying

    The third fight was the best youve ever seen? It was a massacre! Zale kicked the living **** out of Graziano, it wasnt even competetive.

    never seen the reason why the 3rd fight is so big???

    I mean ok I can understand the first 2 fights, but the 3rd one sided beat down???

    Its a shame that the 3rd fight got in the top ten on espn's top 20 great fights of all time. I can name 20 fights better than Zale Graziano 3.

    sure, I would like the 2nd fight, Did see a few movements of it on espn classic when they talk about the 2nd fight. A few mins is better than 5 sconds.

    Graziano had his moments in the second round. It was too one-sided in my view to be called a great fight though but I do watch the fight all the time. I guess you could call it an entertaining beating.
