Actual Radio Broadcast, Dempsey - Tunney 2

I need to check some of this out.

My Pops told me coming up how they’d go to the car and listen to Floyd Patterson fights on the radio.

 

Awesome, thanks a lot.

Holy crap this is cool. I'm listening to Louis v Baer at the moment.

 

I remember the times before television! People gathered around the radio! Outstanding find! Thanks a million for this! It really brought back memories!

 

been trying to get some Old British Radio, have been told that the Programme "For the Forces" was joined Live and rarely taped, which sadly constitutes a lot of fights...

However there will be Some Recorded and in other circumstance, some maybe by Private Recordings too.

always trying.

 

I've still to listen to most of them, but the radio broadcasts in some ways put you at ringside far better than fight film.
It's completely contemporary. Even the roars of the crowd are interesting.

 

Agreed. This has opened a whole new world for me. It's amazing. What a shame there's just not more of it.

 

Appreciate the heads up Matt.

 

The post fight commentary on Louis vs Walcott is really good!

 

Just seen it. Bumpy bump.

 

Incredible. Thanks for the resource.
