    There is footage of Wills on youtube, an old Wills against the Basque Paulino Uzcudun.

    I think there's film of Harry Wills from 1924 against Bartley Madden, out there.

    I think Wills' record proves he was pretty good. He didn't have the charisma or style to get full recognition in his own time. He must have been very good in his prime.
    It's really hard to guess who he beats, and who he doesn't beat, with such a lack of footage.
