    I'm not sure how well known this documetary is on here so apologies if I'm posting something that has been put up 100 times before but I've just stumbled across this documentary on YouTube and it's fantastic upto now so I thought I would share.

    Basically Tyson chatting with Carpenter on old school heavyweights.

    He comes across really well.

    Tyson could be one of the most foremost authorities on boxing history alive today.

    Anyway, thought I would share...

    The story about Jess Willard and the supposed loaded gloves is very very interesting.

    Seen this before but not recently, thanks for posting. Always been charmed by Mike's respect and reverence for those that came before. You can tell how much he was inspired by and wanted to emulate Dempsey's style.
