[joe33]

Has there ever been a more exciting crazy and wild fight as this one?

Very poor quality as it is and sorry for the japanese voice over,but even so its still amazing to watch some 80 years later,firpo was brave as a lion in this fight.

Funny bit was when jack decks him near the corner,and then steps over him to stand in his corner lol,now if this was filmed with modern cameras and angles,we would all be screaming from the top of the mountains as to what a awesome fight it is.

So sad a lot of people will not give full respect to old fights,due to what in there eyes must be poor footage and thus they dont give the men credit,you can see a number of jacks punches not land,due to there speed and cuts in the film.

Compare this to the last few heavyweight fights nowdays we have had,and i for one would rather watch a all out brawl and war like this,for me its due to them not being over trained robots like now,and more to the fact most had some faults that made the fights fun as hell to watch :cool:

You'd think with all the modern technology, old fight films could be plotted with computers frame by frame, digitally enhanced, between frame movements calculated, and recreated to present a smooth accurate version of the fights. They could even make em' color. Picture one of those crude dot to dot drawings we did as kids, then with a pen or pencil smooth things out here and there between the points until it looks realistic.

Any computer guys out there ready for this assignment?
