Bollocks Bollocks Bollocks.

I have bought the lot on VHS.

I knew this day may come, but I have all the Magazines and videos already and I can't really justify buying them all again on DVD.

I assume thay have not all been remastered and are just a straight video to DVD copy?

I think Stu is just annoyed as he only got the full video set a few months ago.

It's a great collection in my opinion.

Yep, and I was going to sell nearly a whole set (with magazines) which I have spare on Ebay. Some go for good prices, not anymore.

Every 2 weeks is going to work out alot of money if it goes on for ages!

Stu, do you know the titles of the 3 bonus editions?

Boxingnut · Post by **Boxingnut** » 17 Jun 2005, 02:05

I am not 100% sure it is the same collection, just lumped on to DVD.

Marshall Cavendish produced it last time and they are still around so this might be slightly different, although most of the DVD's so far seem to be the same. The only difference I can see is the Marciano DVD has both Walcott fights on it, whereas the video (I think) only had the first fight on it.

Only a difference of a round mind!

There seems to be no advertisement for extented highlights of Clay vs Liston 1 on the Ali vs Foreman DVD - Boxers shows 3/4 of that fight on their first issue.

As for the 3 bonus ones its.

Solid Gold - A look at Ex Olympic Heavyweight champions in pro action (Patterson, Ali, Frazier, Foreman and Radamacher - spelling).

The Ultimate Prize - A look at Ali vs Spinks 1 and 2.

And the Fab Four - Leonard, Hagler, Hearns and Duran.

There are 72 main issues and these three.

Thanks for the reply Stu.

I've got the 72 videos and Solid Gold plus all the mags. So I'm missing The Ultimate Prize + The Fab Four. Absolutely gutted

Anyone out there who can sell me the two bonus editions that I am missing?

Southpaw Stylist · Post by **Southpaw Stylist** » 18 Jun 2005, 05:03

I'll buy the complete set off someone in here for 50 quid?

How much will you buy most of the editions for but not complete - with Mags

I have actually got in my spare a mistake by Marshall Cavendish so I do hope that will be worth something. Its a rare mistake, it has the number of the Joe Frazier video wrong.

Have you looked on Ebay mate?

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 18 Jun 2005, 07:09

Trust me its bloody hard to just get the bonus editions, I have written to surely 25 different sellers asking and they say "Full set or nothing". Don't really blame them, its the full set that makes money.

I haven't see beeing sold for less than £100 pound.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 18 Jun 2005, 07:11

Actually, phone the number on the back of one of the boxers editions - they still sell some back issues. I was a bit gutted when I found out that, but I do need a folder and one magazine (got ripped in the postage) I phoned them the other day and they went "yes we have lots available, phone again in two weeks when we will have organised how many issues we have left of each".

All depends on how incomplete it is mate...

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 18 Jun 2005, 14:08

I will post the editions when I get hold of them, in a sealed box in the attic as things stand.

Owain · Post by **Owain** » 19 Jun 2005, 00:50

Thanks for the replies.

I'll try ebay and the phone number suggested. Cheers.
