    These old time fighters were taught well. Some of these skills aren't taught anymore or have been lost for good. So much for the current belief by many that todays fighters are more skilled than thier ancestors. These clips put that idea to pasture for good. Great video clips.

    The other two, Charles and Burley, were done by a different person than the Louis one.

    Here is a Joe Louis HL to hopefully make up for it :D

    The Burleys and Charles one are brought up every now and then. Terrific movie. There is a similar one for Marciano. That´s also great. I think it´s by the same guy too, not too sure though.
