Cheers Palooka! I am over heading over to Mimmy's Oasis.Mimmy on British and Irish forum is uploading nearly 200 boxing tapes from that era - some real gems in there, I'd give his thread a gander and if you ask him he may well have the fights; I've been really impressed, he's got some collection.
There's a good deal of Gary Jacobs posted on You Tube and it was nice to be reminded about what a blood and thunder fighter 'Kid' Jacobs was for a while. Lots of 'what if' and 'nearly' stuff with Jacobs I think; just a wee bit quicker to pull the trigger and more willing to slip a punch and it could have been a much bigger and better story. I do miss fighters like that.
