    I´ve tried to find the "alternative angle" of Carlos Monzon vs. Tom Bogs. Its existence had been mentioned in a discussion on Tom Bogs.
    It has got to be private footage as neither the Danes or Argentinians had an alternative camera on the fight.
    I don´t wait for it magically to appear in front of me some day (klompton2) - but I have to say - as long as someone refers to it in a discussion as an evidence of his statement - then he must share the footage -

    Your nerd ass can take your collection to the grave with you at the end of the day and in the grand scheme of things nobody really cares about some fight collection some old ass nerd has in his basement, i bet that not even your family gives a **** about it, but anyway you're free to do whatever you want with it, take care have fun with your collection :good

    Go to a torrent site, its where he gets most of his fights too. If hes not spending money on it why would you follow his advice of buying them from some nerd he knows?

    **** off and kill yourself , I could care less what mildly rare film footage you have that you beam with pride over possessing.

    I do care that you're toxic to this forum and you've systematically brought the quality of classic down with your crybaby bull****.

    You act like you own fine art, you have a film collection as "impressive" as a hundred other fight collectors that make it a hobby to collect film.

    Only difference is you're a dingleberry in that very niche market and you're one of the only people that finds it necessary to constantly air your grievances through public channels and cry like a child.

    Validation is one of the saddest things a persons can do.

    This **** from you has been going on for years.

    If you're ignorant enough that you can't even acknowledge repeating the same things for years on end is ridiculous and unnecessary than you're legitimately deluded.

    **** off, take it elsewhere. You contribute nothing to this forum. You actively take away from it with your pissing contests.

    To be fair to klompton, he has said if anyone (presumably meaning those he is on terms with) is particularly serious about a particular fighter for a particular reason he will allow that person to view that footage.

    No help to me because he's twenty squillion miles away.

    I upload ****, myself.

    Boo ****ing hoo. Whiney bitches like you and Green, who supposedly dont care, seem to care an awfully lot. And if I repeat myself its because ignorant twats like you continue to harp about how awful I am for not giving away what took a lot of work to build up (You will ***** and whine about this but then try to claim that I dont have anything anybody else doesnt... great, then get it somewhere else and stop complaining about me ****er.). I would repeat again that I didnt say jack **** on this subject until I was dragged into it but you cant ****ing read even remedial english and your attention span isnt long enough to retrace how I even got involved in this thread so I cant be bothered to try and educate your dumbass.

    This is one of reasons why boxing is so far behind in showcasing the classics compared to other sports. Football, Basketball, and other sports have dedicated channels for the sole purpose of broadcasting old/classic matches. Yet we find in Boxing a collector or a fucken promoter is holding on the rights of the film that will never see the light of day.

    What a crock of ****. There arent 1/10th the classic football, basketball, or baseball games that there are boxing. Of those that even exist there isnt a drop in the bucket compared to how many classic boxing matches are readily available to the public. How many classic baseball games have you seen which predate color television? You can count them all on your hands. You know who owns the rights to that stuff? Major League Baseball. You know who is the most protective of their sports footage? Major League Baseball. So dont even go there because boxing fans have far more access to every era of boxing since the advent of film than all other sports combined and yet some boxing fans still cry foul and have this sense of entitlement. So just keep in mind that when people are complaining that ESPN Classic only shows Ali and Tyson fights and then wax poetic about how they wish boxing films were more open "like baseball" if they really got what they wished for they really would only be watching Ali and Tyson and maybe not even that.

    I hope you are not insinuating that I was one of the people who brought you up in a derogatory manner. I simply said you collect and do not sell. And as far as I know, you don't, correct? I, however, think that it is ridiculous not to sell, with the exception of the ones you've given your word on. I guarantee many people here would pay a fair price for those films, even the less rare ones.
