    Theres more footage of him than you think. I've seen quite a lot and wasn't impressed at all by it. Didn't beat many good guys and has losses and draws throughout his career so he didn't have an "invincible" stage like most greats.
    He beat a tiny Tommy Burns who was like 6/7 inches shorter than him and a lot lighter. He also beat a very past his prime Jim Jeffries. Most of the rest of his career was against nobody's.
    i have jack v's burns,ketchel,jeffies and flynn

    if there is more do you know where i can get it from?

    • You can get plenty of classical footage from different sites and collecters. There is also quite a lot of sparring footage of Johnson as well.

              Jack Johnson is a top three fighter? You gotta be kidding. Who are your top three?

                If Johnson was white he would still be known as a great champion. Being black doesn't take away what he did in the ring.

                And no way lewis and holyfield would beat him. They're too slow.

                      He's #2 for me. Bert Sugar has him #3. The man had between like 79-100 wins, he did know how to box. And I agree with Butterfly, he would school Holyfield and Lewis.
