    Interesting that at around 3:20 as examples of great fighters he says Sugar Ray Robinson, Joe Louis, Ezzard Charles, Jersey Joe Walcott, Rocky Marciano, and Jack Dempsey

    Half the forum doesn't like Dempsey, Marciano and Walcott being there and will tell Ali he's an oldhead who doesn't know what he's talking about

    Jacobs had the best collection of boxing films in the world in the 1960s.
