Is there a complete listing of all of the fights of Joe Louis that were known to be filmed?
Particularly in 1941 during the so called"Bums-of-the Month"parade.
I had heard that possibly Joe Louis vrs Tony Musto was filmed.
Also Joe Louis vrs Lou Nova.
Anyone here seen this footage,either back in the movie house in 1941.
Or even 16mm or 8mm film.

I have been told that there should exist some highligts of Louis fight against Red Burman, but I have not got the fight myself.

- Where's his 'rasslin' footage?

We have the much earlier footage of Dempsey/Cowboy Lutrell. Since Louis 'rassled in the 50s, I would think there would be some footage. Be some fun footage.

I've also seen the exhibition bout v Pat Valentino, that's around on film somewhere, and Louis gives him a beating.
