Bugner looked awesome in this fight. Maybe his best performance beyond the Frazier fight. Crazy how some fights he came up for it and others he looked like he didn't really want to be there.

His jab and his left hook of of it were really good also his combinations.
What is also interesting is that this fight was just before he and his trainer Andy Smith
took a 6 week tour of the USA during June-July 1970 and had Bugner spar with
Muhammad Ali at the Fifth Street Gym in Miami
and Bugner also sparred with Sonny Liston(at Gil Clancey's gym on Fifth avenue in NYC I think were it happened)
Bugner also attended the Jerry Quarry vs Mac Foster bout in Madison Square Garden NYC
and the Liston vs Chuck Wepner bout in New Jersey
before they returned to England.

Hey people does it look like this was home video-recorded off of a television set to you?
The Joe Bugner vrs Brian London fight was aired live on BBC ONE May.12.1970

( a mere 14 months after Quarry vrs Mathis was televised)
What is the story behind this recording klompton?
How did it survive the great BBC "wiping"?
Did the state of the art of video-recording advance
in that amount of time?
I dont know,im only arsking.

No dipshit. Thats what is called a kinescope. Its actually an OLDER technology. But you wouldnt know that because you dont know what youre looking at.

Its a kinescope?
How to you explain all those numbers going on for the time in the lower left corner of the footage then?
Looks to me like it may have been recorded off of television with a video cam recorder on a tripod or something.
BTW You didnt explain the source of this BBC fight footage surviving.
where and when did it turn up?

I also didnt explain to you how some episodes of dr. Who survived and some didnt. Or how some news broadcasts survived and some didnt. Its not my job to educate your dumbass. Now you are being deliberately obtuse. As for it being a kinescope you clearly dont know how kinescopes work given your reply. You consistently show how little you understand this subject. Have fun with your ignorance and conspiracy theories.
