    From Fight Pictures, Dan Streible

    Jeffries-Sharkey 1899


    The film makers considered removing the roof from the Coney Island Athletic Club pavilion but went with lighting instead.

      Napoles had rather ordinary hand speed. His balance and timing were good enough to compensate.

        No question about this. Old Left hits the nail on the head.

          LaMotta lacked big punching power.

          Ali leaned back from punches and often kept his hands at his sides

          Bob Satterfield could have been an ATG if it weren’t for his glass chin

          Joe Louis often dropped his left after throwing punches

          Mike Tyson’s loss of mental discipline did him in

                Trinidad lacked a chin and ability to adjust when Plan B failed.

                    Those big heavy legs weren't much good against movers.

                      That chin of Mandingo's was not the best the division ever saw.
