    For those who dislike the colorization ,I have a solution,






    Don't watch!


    Steele was certainly bombs away, I don't think Dundee got over the 1 st rd.
    The referee looked pissed that Dundee's corner didn't pull him out earlier.

    As I recall, the parties had agreed beforehand at the insistence of Dundee and his handlers that the referee would not be allowed to stop the fight. Their fear, I guess, was that Dundee could be homered by a premature stoppage. As it turned out, Dundee likely suffered the progressive brain damage which led to his death at a Glendale, California nursing home in 1947.

    When you look at his stance and quick feet you imagine he is going to be stick and move guy,but he is the antithesis of that ,a "sail in ,let it all hang ,out bombs away " destroyer.
