    didn’t realize Walcott May have been showboating shortly before his KO. Wonder if there was any comment on tha?

    Thankfully Walcott took his loss like a man instead of blaming it on showboating. Personally I don't believe the showboating was the problem but if it was then the only person to blame is Walcott himself

    Personally I regard losing a fight you should've won as a worse detriment to your greatness than going out on your shield and being outclassed

    Good quality of footage here. D Brown really is doing us a service, Hanza just made a new Dempsey video with a bunch of colorized footage by D Brown.

    Louis to this day confuses the hell out of me .. take out his high light reel exceptional KO's and in some fights he seems asleep at the wheel .. Pastor, Schmeling 1, Farr, Conn .. here w Walcott .. it's like he gets confused and sleepwalks .. If Walcott tried that crap against Joe Frazier he'd be chased down and have his head knocked off ..

    Think Joe would knock Walcott’s head off eventually but it wouldn’t be easy for him. walcott was a confusing as hell fighter. If he only had a solid chin.
