    Then you should check some Basilio and Gaspar Ortega fights those guys were never in a bad fight.Kid Gavilan's fight with Gil Turner has some of the most furious exchanges i've ever seen,Ralph "Tiger" Jones-Tony Baldoni is a hell of a fight,Gene Fullmer-Eduardo Lausse is another great fight, Artie Diamond-Jimmy Flood is a terrific scrap, Archie Moore-Yvonn Durelle is an ATG fight with one of the best come backs by a fighter ever,Ezzard Charles-Bob Satterfield is an exciting shootout.Lamottas' rematches with Norman Hayes,Bob Murphy and Gene Hairston are very good scraps.All fights worth checking out.

    i have somewhere in the region of 6000 fights, if i can find a way of taking them from reel/vhs and getting them on here as mint condition i will, i also have most of the antekprizering catalog that was recently taken down im sure i have in the region of 10,000 a grade photos, i need help in finding the stuff needed to upload them on here in bulk. i have about 8 joe louis fights in a hd file to upload, but i need to get the 20 minute video thing on youtube, i have 8 rounds of the first conn fight in color, i dont know how to chop them up. so i have a few stumbling blocks to overcome to help you guys out.
