Not sure if you're talking about this situation, but I remember him saying that Fred Fulton looked like a trash on film and he's the only one who supposedly saw this film...
Wait so let me get this straight. So these four guys were able to get their hands on some never before seen Sam Langford footage, decided to keep it to themselves, but one of them showed it to one of his friends who made a rough copy which is the one we have now. Am i right?
It centres around the Langford-Jeannette footage and the whole story, characters involved, recriminations, Klompton meltdown and the invite to watch films at his home can all be found in this thread: https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/does-langford-hague-exist-on-film.294629/
