    Yes it does. It is actually an exciting fight, despite reports saying it was the "stinkiest" of there series. I thought it had more action than fights 1 and 3. I think it is an underrated fight. The rarest to obtain is the first fight...a a masterclass boxing display despite showing only 2 rounds of the full fight, with it perhaps representing both when they were closest to there physical peak.

    Guys like Lights Out & B-Hop as great and old school as they were couldn't carry Jersey Joe's jock strap.

    I understand that most ringsiders sided with Charles in fight 4. I think they knew each other so well by then that it could be said that they anticipated each other's moves..I also read that Charles was a bit gunshy after his experience tasting that sneak hook in fight #3...at any rate, I've always wanted to see this fight..I'm sure that it was very interesting either way.

    rare as in when have you ever seen it show its face on youtube? If you were to upload it and put it on youtube, you would do this boxing site a service!
