I have never seen a film of Frazier-Jones and have inquired about this fight for years.

Does anybody know if a film of this fight exists?

Frazier left hook to end that fight was said to have been perfection.

I checked all the TV Listings for Philadelphia, but I cannot come up with a Broadcast Listing.

Was it an Independent Crew that 'filmed' the bout.

It was filmed either for newsreels or a news show.

I read somewhere where the Frazier vs Doug Jones fight was to be televised
(but blacked-out in a 90 mile radius of Philadelphia.
via cable on the East Coast.
But it was cancelled a few hours before broadcast.
(not sure of the reason,but Im not going to pay the NYT $2.95 to see
a 46 year old newspaper article to find out why it was.
