I came across this goofy clip by accident.
It looks like its from the 1930's.
Check out who shows up at the end throwing a few right hands to the fat mans belly!

Keep them coming.
He would make a mistake letting Bob Fitzsimmons hit him with a body shot.
Or Sam Langford.

Re: The Human Punching Bag(/rare film clip featuring a HW Champ)
Preparing for a shot makes a huge difference. It's being caught when you don't suspect it that changes things. In a fight it's the shot you don't see (or are not prepared for) that unravels a fighter. (Although I'm not quite sure there is anything you can do to prepare for a dead on target liver shot, other than to block it or leave town before it arrives).
