I've been watching quite a few of Ingo's fight films recently.Knockouts over Eddie Machen,Floyd Patterson,Dick Richardson and one or two others.However I've not came across any film of his knockout of Henry Cooper,does anyone know if this was filmed if so does any survive? I've seen one still photo of Henry on the canvas and that's all.
That is all I have seen apart from a pic ingo walking down to ringside with the crown prince of sweden looking at him. one story was as it was an outdoor fight ingo hit henry when the sun was in his eyes. Henry used the pic of him sitting down looking up into the rays of sunshine to back it up.
The fight was filmed, but the cameraman made a huge blunder!! He got bored watching Ingo jabbing Cooper into position for his righthand that would end the fight in the 5th round. The present KIng Gustav of Sweden was at ringside as a young man, and there was a lot of talk in Sweden wheather the young prince should be allowe to watch pro boxing. The cameraman got bored watching the fight and turned the camera to the young prince and "Bingo" Ingo knocked out Cooper off film. I have about one minute of this fight. Woller
