    Im not sure what exists on a prime Berg, hes never been one that I really chased after. A lot of footage exists on him though but most of it is when hes older.

    The only Beau Jack fight is his loss to Ike Williams.

    As for those people who ***** and complain about hoarders: Give me your car... or your house... No? I didnt think so. I spend a lot of time and money finding and acquiring what goes into my collection. Why should I just completely devalue it by then giving it away. Im not special, if I can find it anyone can, the difference is lazy *******s that complain about hoarders just want a freebee and dont want to have to work hard for it. Theyd rather sit and complain about people who have. I also worked hard to build a reputation as someone who can be trusted not to give out footage that may have been given to me by someone who doesnt want it given out for whatever reason. Im not about to stab those people in the back so I can look like some hero to a bunch of people Ive never met and never will and who obviously dont appreciate that hard work or the promise made that goes into acquiring it. The difference between me and those people who complain that Im hoarding is that while ultimately we both want to see this footage I stopped waiting for it to magically appear in front of me some day and actually went out and found it. Beyond that i dont have any responsibility to anyone but myself or the people I network with to see this footage.

    Blah blah blah. Comparing sharing a fight to handing over the keys to your house is a bit tenuous at best.

    The funny thing is, I don't even particularly care about seeing any of these "treasures." Probably wouldn't take the time to see them if you wanted to share them. I just think your point of view is childish and makes you look like a trekkie geek.

    Now I CAN respect it if someone came to you in earnest and asked you not to share it. That's different. I might roll my eyes as much at THEM for requesting such a thing as if what they gave you was some fvcking holy grail, but that's the deal I would have entered into, so I would have had to respect it.

    I simply don“t get it. I have also been given or bought fights under the condition that I would not let them go any further. I have given my word. It is as simple as that.

    You're a hoarder plain and simple you only take and never share anything, you have download more than 1.000 fights from a famous torrent site and you dont share anything you have other than seeding what you download from others, Your selfish ***** ass even goes to the point of getting mad when another poster(Baclava) comes here and shares something rare with the rest of us, instead of thanking him for his generosity you ***** and moan about how he shouldnt be sharing that and all that selfish jibberish you usually go on about.

    This from a guy(You) that used to accuse Raging Bull of not sharing fights in his collection when in fact he has shared many fights with us while you just hoard and hoard and never share nothing,GTFO.

    All the rare **** you have will sooner or later be available to the public and theres nothing your hoarding selfish ***** ass can do about it other than cry and moan like a ***** about it.

    Plenty of people download and share only what they download from torrent sites. Its easily as important as uploads.

    I didnt ***** and moan about Baclava I pointed out to him that he was posting something that family didnt want out there. I know and have a relationship with them and also know that Baclava wouldnt have that footage if the family hadnt released it to the guy he got it from. As such I thought maybe he would want to know that the family would frown on him posting it on youtube. As far as Im concerned they own it and its their call. He is free to do what he wants (right or wrong) but when you are trying to get more footage from people and you dont honor their requests then its hard to get mad when they cut you off (and again, i wasnt the one with the problem with it).

    I never accused Raging Bull of not sharing. There isnt anything that raging bull has that I need. My problem with raging bull was that he shared things that he went in on with me and others with that he had agreed to not trade/sell. Again, you give people enough rope to hang themselves and when they do they can hardly complain that I cut them off. And thats the problem with your argument: plenty of people on here can attest to my generosity and willingness to include them on deals but that is based on a level of trust that is earned. Those people dont sit there and pretend to be heros when they get one rare film and post them on youtube so you dont hear about that. There are people out there, some of whom post here, who can ask me for anything they want and I feel totally comfortable giving it to them because I know that something I spent a small fortune on isnt going to be traded around like a worthless bubble gum card. But when I purchase something expensive with four other people and three of those people dont want what they paid hard earned money for to be given away for peanuts I honor that. When the fourth guy posts it on youtube or a torrent site so he can get his 2 seconds of fame and pretend he was the one who worked hard to find and acquire it (essentially taking credit for what I did), well, thats when that guy gets cut off. I didnt create the rules but Im smart enough to know how to work within them so I can keep seeing the fights I want to see. I say again, Im no better than anybody else the difference is some whiny armchair experts dont want to have to work hard to get this stuff and hate the guys that do. I dont lose an ounce of sleep over those guys.

    A hoarder doesnt keep an open invitation to anyone who wants to personally come and watch these fights. Some have actually taken me up on that and weve had a great time. So Im not keeping anything to myself, Im just not giving it away.

    You think everything I have will be available to the public some day? Hmmm. Well, maybe, but I'll bet cash money that youll be dead long before you ever get a chance to see anything thats exclusive to my collection.

    Was it Raging Bull that sells a load of great fights and collections?

    If someone has some mega rare **** and wants to keep it for himself, whatever. They will be dead one day and keep their find and then nobody else will find it and that's the end. It's just possessions. They didn't film the original, so they found it from someone else, so they are not that different to the next person down the line wanting it, although I appreciate the effort people go to can be extreme and they can rightly tell people to do one if they just demand it.

    I wish Klompton would just shut his ****ing mouth instead of validating himself in half of his posts on this forum.

    Gets old man. We really don't want to hear your life story and your justification for what you do and don't do. Every post is some little introspective schmeal that no one needs to hear, you are literally beating a horse that is beyond dead. How many years have you been rambling like a broken record on here? Do you think every thread about finding old footage revolves around you and you're little collection of films that even in your own words anyone could get if they put their mind and time towards it?

    Do whatever you want to do, but god gods sake shut your ****ing mouth, I'm so tired of even seeing your name on the left side of my screen and knowing its going to be some long winded "Ho ho ho I do A and B because of C and D and I don't care what anyone thinks nah nah nah".

    If you care so little do us a favor and stop talking you stuttering man child.

    I have to say I find that an entirely reasonable stance.

    I didnt saw word one until I was dragged into this little thread twice in an insulting manner so shut the **** up. If you think Im going to sit here and let people spew nonsense about me on a thread I was perfectly willing to stay out of without explaining myself youre wrong. The only man child here are those pinheads who are too ****ing lazy to go out and look for this **** themselves and then ***** and whine like you when somebody doesnt change their diaper for them. Or the dipshits (you) who get tired of me answering back at those lazy assed posters who bash me for not "sharing."

    So Klompton, where do you recommend I find fights from the last 30 odd years from? No super rare stuff, regular ol televised fights.
