    Man, Lausse was a beast. What puncher is beating him?

    That Lausse-Gavilan footage reminds me of hands down one of the funniest quotes I have ever seen from all the drivel that comes out of the general.

    Went something like "Ricky Hatton would stop Gavilan in 5" :rofl

    There he is in with one of the hardest hitting middleweights of that era and Ricky Hatton apparently takes him out in 5. :lol:

    Gavilan had a glass jaw and was knocked out all the time. Hatton wouldn't need more than 2 rounds to bludgeon him to smithereens. Same night, Hatton KO1 Gene Fullmer, KO9 Jake LaMotta.

    Here's some more fights from Raging B(_)LL's collection.

    Percy Bassett TKO 10 Seraphin Ferrer
    [yt]4upJNgC3GFE[/yt]
    Bassett was one of the top FW contenders of the '50s. He was a tough, aggressive banger. He was credited as being the "duration" or "interim" FW champ in the time that the actual champ Sandy Saddler was in the army. A fight between the two was a natural, and it looked all poised to happen in early '55 following Saddler's discharge from the service. However, just as it was on the cusp of happening, Bassett was upset by Teddy "Red Top" Davis, and Davis went on to get the "unification" fight with Saddler instead. Bassett then moved up in weight and tried to break into the LW rankings, and that is the fight you see here, vs. unbeaten prospect Seraphin Ferrer on Ferrer's home turf in France. Like Bassett, Ferrer was a big puncher, and was coming off an impressive KO win over the recently deposed LW champ Paddy DeMarco.

    Jose Stable W 10 Charley Scott, round 4
    [yt]l9Qj_9xqFZM&feature=related[/yt]
    Stable was a very exciting, highly rated WW contender for a brief time in the '60s. This here was one of a string of wins that led him to an eventual shot at the champion Emile Griffith. Stable gave Griff a good fight, but took a fair amount of punishment in the late rounds and lost a decision. He never seemed to recover from the fight and quickly went downhill afterward.

    Gaspar "Indian" Ortega W 10 Benny "Kid" Paret I, round 1
    [yt]XNZpzTF7dVs[/yt]
    Two exciting and popular WWs from the '60s. Paret of course went on to win the title after this, but would lose again to Ortega in a non-title match. Paret then lost his title to Griffith, but Ortega's wins over Paret earned him a shot at Griff's title even before Paret could get a rematch. Griff surprisingly stopped the iron-chinned Ortaga late (the first of only two times he was ever stopped in his nearly 200-fight career), but Ortega would remain a respected contender and crowd favorite throughout the decade.

    Buster Mathis W 12 George Chuvalo, round 1
    [yt]PRtG6fSpy9w[/yt]
    About as wild a first round as you'll ever see, in an underrated HW battle. An important crossroads fight in both men's careers, as both were on the comeback trail following brutal stoppage losses to Joe Frazier.

    can't wait to watch Lausse (a truly horrific puncher, power wise) vs Gavilan, the iron-chinned scientist.

    Great to see some classic footage of the unheralded contenders of the 1950's. Thanks.

    More fights from RB's collection:

    Florentino Fernandez W 10 Rocky Rivero III
    [yt]uhY4_WV3AkY[/yt]
    The rubber match of this exciting trilogy between two of the hardest hitting MWs of the '60s, and probably Fernandez's last big win at 160.

    Florentino Fernandez W 10 Gaspar "Indian" Ortega II, round 2
    [yt]SIiiQ_vyg1o[/yt]
    Good win by Fernandez on the way up as a WW, against the always competent perennial contender Ortega.

    Ralph "Tiger" Jones W 10 Johnny Bratton
    [yt]z1zvrn4mHwM[/yt]
    The first big win of Jones' career, over leading WW contender Bratton.

    Luis Rodriguez W 10 Federico Thompson, round 7
    [yt]l6DhPZc0TTY[/yt]
    Good win for Rodriguez against the underrated former title challenger Thompson.

    Luis Rodriguez W 10 Holley "Holly" Mims, round 6
    [yt]uY-EMdi1I5k[/yt]
    Luis outpoints the aging but always dangerous veteran Mims. Mims had only recently been blatantly robbed against leading MW contender Joey Archer.

    Jose Gonzalez TKO 6 Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, round 3
    [yt]I0DeeXEXDbU[/yt]
    Notorious '60s "spoiler" Gonzalez pulls off another upset as he busts up an up-and-coming Carter and stops him on cuts. (I believe the whole fight in its entirety is elsewhere on youtube.)

    Gregorio Peralta W 10 Willie Pastrano I, round 6
    [yt]PadM7WPt6xQ[/yt]
    Peralta earns a shot at the LHW title with a beatdown of Pastrano in a non-title fight. In their rematch, Pastrano turned in the last great performance of his career and stopped Peralta on cuts.

    Actually have the complete ten rounds.. hence my reason for asking of its availability. If anyone would post it onto you tube, I'll forward a copy of the complete fight.. including the hilarious advert breaks. PM me. Also have plenty of Dawson in Australia. Had the pleasure of meeting his son last October.. What a gentleman he is. Very interested in his fathers career and suprised at his father's recognition in Oz. Well, he's definately admired, hence being inducted into the Oz Boxing Hall of Fame last year.
