Video stores boxing stock?

[Tony Blitz]

I always hear about legends like Leonard, Duran, Robinson and such but am too young to have had the priviledge of watching them and would like that to change. Does anyone happen to know if Blockbuster has any boxing DVDs to rent or if wal-marts and such sell stuff like that or am I gonna have to get it off those sites that make the DVDs homemade? thanks

Good question. I would try to purchase all of Bernard Hopkins fights. Maybe some of Roberto Duran's fights. And definately Floyd Maywether vs. Arturo Gatti.

Look for videos, not DVD's if you want the classic fights. I've had great success going to smaller video rental outlets, and scouring through their "previously viewed" section. In some cases, I've even pulled videos off the shelf and asked to speak with the manager about purchasing them. You never know what they'll say, usually old fight films don't rent very often, and the mgr will be glad to realize some revenue from the sale.

Happy Hunting!

Yeah that's the problem, we have 5 DVD players and not a single VHS player.
