    Watching him in the white trunks with black stripes against Norton was like seeing a younger, better, more skillful Ali in action.

    Easily a greater fighter than Williams, Tua, and Lyle.

    I can't wait to get home to my computer to watch this. I snuck a little peak on my iPhone, but that won't do it justice, I'll have to wait. But thank you in advance Tommy, but what's this FINAL tribute ****. Keepum coming man, this is the only place I know with some Jimmy Young fans. We see Ali and other popular fighters info everywhere we look. I like the unsung more unknown greats like Young, Mamby, Pryer, oh, they're so unknown, I can't even think of them. But, you know what I mean. Lol

    Add Nicolino Locche, Sammy Angott, Harold johnson and Willie Pastrano to your list of unsung heroes...which by the way, are more fascinating to me than the big names you hear about all the time.

    Definatly, me too. There's a lot of them, I just can't think of them, I mist be getting old. But this lodge guy I've never heard of him till recently on this board, and he is my cup of tea. He's amazing.

    Good vid man. Also, I had to laugh when Young went after Dokes for patten him on his rump. Jimmy Young, was a special kind of fighter.
