    Follow-up to the 'choose one fighter there is no footage of' thread:

    Of all the fights there is no footage of, which one would you most like to see?

    If bareknuckle counts Cribb-Molineux I. The reports I've seen are very contradictory and it'd be nice to know for sure what happened. Plus it sounds like a hell of a war.

    Otherwise probably one of Wilde's fight. Or maybe Joe Walcott vs Billy Smith, I'd also love to have footage of Tommy Ryan too.

    An obvious one but I’d love footage to turn up of Zale-Graziano 1.

    There’s technically some footage of Zale-Graziano 2 but as it’s amateur filming from a distance it’s pretty much impossible to watch.

    Joey Archer vs Ruben Hurricane Carter. If it exists I haven't seen it. Archer was the slickest boxing middleweight of his day and Carter the hardest puncher in the division. It must have been one helluva fight.

    Any of the Charles - Moore fights with the third being preferred. SRR - Gavilan II would be great too.

    Oh and Hagler - Monroe.

    Sugar Ray Robinson vs. Kid Gavilan 1 and 2, though I have heard there is footage locked away in Cuba but I am still including it.

    Lou Nova vs. Tony Galento.

    Just as well as nobody wants footage of Harry Greb. God forbid we should ever see whether the possible p4p guy in history was any good! I'm getting worked up here! :icon_domokun:
