    I've only seen highlights, unfortunately. It's rather a rough and tough fights. Refs get knocked down, they keep tugging and wrestling. Those guys hated each other I think.

    Yep.

    One of the series I wish I could see all of... damn. Pep is one of those fighters we don't get to see enough of. But at least we get something. Some fighters we get practically nothing.

    The last 2 fights were filmed, not sure if they were both filmed in full but Im guessing they were because Ive seen the majority of both fights on highlights, it wouldnt make much sense to video that much of each fight & cut out some parts.

    Actually we need more footage of Saddler, Enough with all this Willie Pep stuff. The man had a padded record, no real punching power and when he stepped up and faced a good black fighter like Saddler he lost 3 of the 4 times they fought. Pep is good but Saddler is better.

    There's a lot more footage of Saddler. If you've seen any you'd know who the better boxer of the two is, despite how their fights went.
