    I looked up that article and read it before I posted the first time. The man may have been a very great prospect, but there just is no opponent he defeated of international stature to warrent comparing him to Louis, in my judgement.

    I haven't seen enough footage to make my own opinion. 26 min documentary about him contains only very short highlights of actual bouts. One collector I exchanged fights with tried to contact state film archive about the possibility of acquiring some old Soviet amateurs footage from them, but with no luck.
