This content is protected Apologies if this has already been posted or there's a regular thread in Classic for links like this, I did look but if I missed something - sorry! Anyway, thought this would be something that others here would enjoy, here's the blurb: ""Jack Johnson vs Tommy Burns "The Road to Sydney and The Lost Footage" documentary tell the story of the events the lead up to the Heavyweight Championship fight in Sydney Australia in 1908, and how the film of the fight was altered to change how the fight played out."
Extremely interesting. The true ending of this fight we never saw as most of the fight film was lost. What was shown as the fight end is actually from round 7 and Burns did not go to the canvas from what was shown as the final blow of what was filmed. Jacob’s and Clayton spliced what they had into a reasonable storyline for public purchase.
