    I got these clips on a memory stick off a bloke down my local, thought they were definately worth putting up to YouTube. They are a mixed lot the first clip (great fight) and the second clip (pretty funny)...the fourth is a good KO as well!:good

    I'll stick more up on my Youtube account over the next week or so.

    Anyone who thinks a modern fighter is worse than these black and white cans is a moron, this **** is really interesting but at the same time truly laughable.

    Not impressed with Lynch in the clip? Boon-Danahar? Is Gains-Scott any worse than a lot of Commonwealth title fights?

    I'd match Boon or Danahar against any Lightweight/Welterweight that this country has ever produced so long as they weigh-in 2 hours before the fight, wear 6oz gloves and over 15 rounds..... if you can't see that then you're the moron.

    The pettifer one was :-(

    The sport has evolved way beyond their wild haymaker left hooks and overhand rights. Someone like Khan or burns would embarrass them with a jab and footwork.

    Im sure for their time theyre decent but if you put them in a ring today its "goodnight" in one or two rounds.

    Yep, I think so Alba. He's an old guy who comes from a boxing family. I think the clips were originally on film, belonged to his Dad who put them on video tape and he's put them on a memory card.

    I'll see him today, see if he's got any more.
