    Ted Spoon - I finally got to check out Driscoll and you weren't lying. What a pretty 1-2. Very sharp.

    I also got around to looking at what Joe Gans footage I could find and the most impressive stuff I saw was the footage of him against Kid Herman. The KO was was dynamite. Looked like he had killed him.

    Nice additions Ted.

    Ok Red, who is the man in your avatar? I've been wondering that myself.

    I like the Archie Moore type stance. Is there any footage of him on youtube?

    Of Young? Pitifully few vids of Young. There's a few big fights of his in their entirety, but I wish there was Young-Lyle, Young-Shavers especially.

    I'm not sure if I should make it in highlights, or just upload the full fight though. It's probably going to be boring.

    Tommy Hearns or Larry Holmes. Noone else is even close IMO.

    Nice. The Hitman was a monster and Holmes's 1-2 was smooth and silky.

    I would love to see how he fought in the first Shavers fight and I would also love to see both Young-Lyle fights and Shavers-Young 2.

    It's your vid do what you want. I'm just glad to see Jimmy Young's fights as I'm a fan of him but it's a crime there isn't a much footage of him in his prime. I would love to see Young-Shavers 2 and the Young-Lyle fights. Many though Young won the second fight with Shavers so I'd love to see it and find out.
