    Very cool that Reznick is taking the time to do this. It's a flipping long job.

    Color film makes it easier to watch boxing. You pick up a bit more.

    If the colors are correct to the original image. If the hue and saturation highlight something such as muscle definition to a degree which is not actual, then we have a different scenario.

    Cassius Clay / Ali looked a lot bigger & more defined when the Life Mag/ Sports Illustrated photos came out in lieu of the Closed Circuit films of the 2 Liston fights.

    I think hue and saturation is splitting hairs, since almost all footage has some level of color correction.

    Also, I'm doing the best I can to accurately add the right color in right places. However, sometimes this is impossible. For instance, I don't know what color Jack Blackburns shirt is, so I have to take liberties and guess.
