Jeffries v Marciano Computer Fight

There is a couple of nice sound-bites on here from Louis,Sharkey,Willard, and Fleischer.
All of the fights have interviews with ex- champs.

What a great find ... terrific post Mc !

 

That was what I enjoyed most about the computer fight series - hearing predictions and opinions from ex-champs and experts.

 

To be honest its the sound bites from the ex champs that I enjoyed the most too! Hearing Willard and Sharkey's voice spooky!:good

 

There's a few out there with short opinions from former champs.:good

 

Ive listened to everyone of these, it's been awhile but I was quite entertained. The Willard interview claiming Jeffries was "sick a very sick man" by the time he fought Johnson I remember him saying.

 

Amazing how ill-informed some of these guys are. One of them (Dundee?) wasn't sure who was taller, Dempsey or Marciano. Marciano had obviously never seen film of Dempsey, had only heard tales from Old-Timers.

Appreciate the youtube, tape-trading world we live in, folks.

 

I agree in some aspects ,I'm sure Dundee would have been in Dempsey's company at some point and he was friendly with Marciano. On one tape Joe Walcott refers to Tunney as Tooney:huh
