    Anyone know where to find obscure fight footage?

    For fights that aren’t on YouTube, Dailymotion etc.

      You used to be able to buy tapes and then DVD's.

      I got a lot of my rare stuff that way but haven't purchased any in a long while.

      The old poster TheGreatA who used to post here had alot of rare fights that he would share via PM.

        A mate of mine is doing some project on several Super Middleweight boxers from Liverpool and there’s a couple of fights he’s trying to get his hands on.

        He asked me earlier today if I knew were he could find them but I had no idea tbh.

          Oh ok I think that one may be a difficult task.

          What time frame are the fights from?

            Have you searched very carefully on Youtube? Sometimes the way you search pulls out something you didn't think you could find. Here are some suggestions:
            1. There are some well followed boxing channels you could ask the channel owner.
            2. Ebay? I know you can find incredible books on Ebay related to anything.
            3. Do a google for search for obscure boxing fights Here is a link from a basic search I did: You can change the search parameters obviously...



            4. Why don't you post this thread in the history section as well? I know Will o Wisp was an author, someone might have a source...

                They’re quite recent tbf, it’s fighters like Paul Smith, Tony Dodson, Tony Quigley, Carl Dilks etc.

                I know some of the fights he’s looking for were televised too.

                  I haven’t searched myself but I assume he’s thoroughly searched on YouTube, Dailymotion etc.

                  I think some of them he’s going to have to buy from DVD collectors.
