    Anything with Greb. I’d be interested in his Tunney fights or anything against heavyweights to see how he handled himself.

    A 4K masterclass by Ray Robinson in his prime. Whatever his version of Ali vs. Cleveland Williams was.

    here's some good footage of Auz's Ron Richard verse Gus Lesnevich 1938, and others too...

    the footage isn't crystal clear, but it is 'Proper footage' where you can clearly see proper fighting, just like you see in modern footage and TV today.

    so as I've always stated "When the filming is right, the fighters are right, except back then they did it every few weeks or so, times 15 - 20 year careers.
