  • Old flicks with Battling Nelson, Ad Wolgast and Joe Rivers

    There are not many old fights to be found on the internet IMO. I just found these very old flicks with Battling Nelson in his last fight with Ad Wolgast for the lightweight title and a flick of one of the most controversial stoppages in boxing history.

    You can see them here:

    If anyone has found some old footage please post it.

        Some footage of the Battling Nelson vs Joe Gans 1 fight at the start of this vid. Nelson flies out of the ring at 01:00...


        Bob Fitzsimmons vs "Gentleman Jim" Corbett HW world title fight 1897.


        "The Human Windmill" Harry Greb sparring with Philadelphia Jack O'Brien.


        Sam McVey fighting against Battling Jim Johnson.


        Sam Langford vs Fireman Jim Flynn.


        Jack Johnson vs Jess Willard. Johnson claimed he took a dive against Willard but this vid proves that it is untrue. He gets knocked out by a clean punch right on the jaw.

        Lots of old footage on youtube...
