    The upload of this has been removed from YouTube for quite some time, so I have re uploaded it following a request from a poster. A brilliant performance from Davila against the tough and extremely underrated Duarte. The other fights on YouTube involving these two are the mistakenly labelled 2nd fight. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL. DOWNLOAD IT.

    Oh, man, just watched it. Haven't seen it in over 40 years. Quite a kick hearing Jim Healy at the mic as well. Great find, Rough.

    I have that on DVD, oddly enough. It seemed to me that this was when Duarte was kind of strung-out, wasn't it?

    Don't necessarily want to deny Davila credit if it's due, but Duarte looked dead in there from what I remember.

    Will report back with my thoughts later. Never seen this one. Sounds like Davila at his best.

    Excellent upload!! Much appreciated. Davila was such a beautiful stylist and clean boxer. Loved his performance foe this one. Really hoping that more Davila fights can be uploaded!
    There was a video of Alberto Davila vs Chul Soon Hwang years ago that got deleted, but he looked brilliant in that fight as well. If you can find that fight I would really appreciate that! I’d also love to see his fight against Alberto Sandoval as well.

    I'd love to see his bout with Rodolfo Martinez.

    Love the way Davila gets under punches steps in and counters. Superb craftsmanship
