    I've been following boxing since i was 15, i'm 20 now, and i have this ambition to start my own collection of fight films, from the all-time ring classics, to the rarest gems. I currently own 12 films Gans-Nelson, Gans-McGovern, Joe Rivers-Ad Wolgast, Leonard-Tendler 1, Louis-Conn 1 and 2, Ali-Quarry 1 and 2, Duran-DeJesus 3, Duran-Thorn, Duran-Ishimatsu, Duran-Vasquez. All from sweetfights.com. What other websites would you recommend, and fights to own?

    I believe sweetfights/sweetboxing did not upload the full Nelson-Gans footage.

    Anyway, the answer is everything that is available that interests you. End thread.

    Thank you, i will check into the Gans-Nelson footage (1hr 15 mins), from what i count there are 27 rounds on the film i own. And of course that should've been obvious from the get go, lol! i just wanted some opinions, and ideas. Again, thanks for your response.

    It might not be far off then. Definitely over an hour long. I was merely recalling the upload that guy once provided online, I imagine he provides everything he has of the fight when purchased on disc.

    Anyway, loads of collectors out there. Enjoy digging.

    Get all of Louis' filmed fights for starters.

    I'd recommend

    as he has arguably the largest collection of rare footage. Check out how long his Gans-Nelson footage is and then you'll know.
