VIDEO: Dick Tiger vs. Henry Hank - ATG Slugfest!!!

I'd have to recommend watching it again, then. I have Hank/Armstrong on video and while a very good fight, it doesn't compare to this one in terms of action.

 

I watched it again and it's a good workman-like performance from both fighters (esp. Tiger) but what it lacks is any drama. Neither guy was ever really hurt in the fight and Tiger had it pretty much in control from the outset.

Hank v Armstrong is a much better fight in terms of action IMO.

here's a list of other great fights from the same time period in welter & middle that are much better than tiger v hank.
