Joe Louis KO Braddock (Color)

Wow, incredible quality.

Rez, i love what you do.

For me it is every bit as valuable, if not more so, as some of the historians digging up records and articles of obscure fighters.

Bringing old footage to life is great. I know you are all about the atmosphere and seeing the sweat fly and hearing the crowd, etc, but for me I'm just about seeing as good quality of our greats as possible.

I'm staggered how clean this is,when I saw the thread I had no idea it would blow my mind.

Again, excellent work.

 

I always thought the left hook was to the inside of the forearm or to the glove itself. Great job nonetheless.

 

Great great stuff and as lc said Mr reznick extremely important to history. It makes a very positive difference to the film and sports history....Louis and maybe down the line a little Dempsey footage colorized....very very important work you are doing and her very appreciated by others.
Thank you

 

Not sure if i'm reading into this incorrectly but I looks like Louis is feinting the looping overhand right to buy himself a half second opening before shortening the blow and connecting full force.

How many men can generate such power with a short punch? When you look at some of of the greatest knockouts in HW history, few are with a short right hand inside.

 

Yeah the lack of depth perception troubled me a bit, he shapes his right hand as if to throw a huge looping shot, or to parry as you say, way ever the intended feint I doesn't seem like he's about to throw a short chopping right. But we can't see the distance his right travels, is it inches or feet? Are they in the pocket or stood at mid range?

Being that close you can see the fear in Braddock as he realises he feel for the feint and left himself open, but being that close we can't see the feet ad can't judge the distance.

 

You should call a press conference,Incredible work

 

Lovely.
