    There are a few on here who claim to have seen it ..... so it must exist :bbb

    But Klompton usually calls bull**** on them ...... so it can't exist :bbb

    It definately does exist - i know for a fact that two of the posters on this forum have a copy of it too - give it a bit more time and i'm sure they'll make themselves known on this thread and spill all the beans - but trust me it exists

    I've heard it exists, and from those same people (or person) I've heard it used to be on Youtube! Based on that I can safely conclude that they're confusing it with another fight.

    Have you seen it, or have you just seen them post that they have it? I can post that I have Cain vs. Abel but that dont make it so.

    I'd bet good hard money that they cant, as I said, post a sequence of action stills from the film. It would be easy to do but they wont. Posting stills wouldnt detract from the trading value of the film, it wouldnt violate any no-trade agreement they may have on it, etc etc. they still wont, because they dont have it.

    Klompton,

    Did you think Jeanette vs Mcvey existed until recently? I am here to tell you I have seen footage of Langford vs. Hague. It exists.

    Jeanette-McVey doesnt exist. Now if you are talking about Langford-Jeanette, then yes, I knew it existed. Ive had it for years and the only reason any of you know it exists is because I found it in the french archive almost ten years ago after which they digitized it and put it on their website, myself and a friend of mine foolishly allowed Clay Moyle to view our copy for research for his book. That wasnt good enough for him and he whined and cried like a little ***** because he couldnt have his own copy. Finally he went from forum to forum pretending to be Christopher Columbus and acting like he had made this great discovery. Which he hadnt. Whatever. I doubt even Clay is brazen enough to deny any of the above but if he is I have all of my paperwork and emails from the archive with dates which back up the fact that I found it and acquired it long before Clay even began working on his Langford book much less came on here acting like he discovered it. I also have all of Clay's emails to me in regards to the film and emails from Raging_Bull who Clay told we had the film and who Clay tried to use to get it from us. Its not the only such film I have found and it wont be the last, but it will be the last one I have found that Clay ever sees.

    The above is a perfect example of why so many collectors "hoard" their stuff. That film could have been used to acquire other valuable films, maybe even a Greb fillm. Now its worthless because of a child. Clay had the opportunity to show he could be trusted, just like those of us who ARE trusted now had to do in the past in order to get to a point where we could acquire such films. Clay chose not to and now that door is closed on him.

    As for Langford-Hague. Like I said, post consecutive frames from an action sequence. Otherwise it doesnt exist.
