Without wishing to upset you Brocky, what can you really discern from material of this quality?
I watched the first couple of minutes before my eyes gave out straining to make sense of it. All I can tell is that they seemed to fight in an old-fashioned "rush, try a punch and grab" style. It's impossible to tell from the keystone cop filming technique whether either of them were quick men as it seems to be running at 1.5 times normal speed.

well collins.......you cant slow it down on youtube. when i put my CD into a computer i can slow the speed down a little making it much easier on the eye. so i can get a better view.
but overall the truth? u cant grasp much.....its more like a great collectors item

The most enjoyable short fight I have watched on there is Quarry vs Bodell.
I'd forgotten how fekkin awkward Jack was.
I figured out how to save it to my hard drive and have watched it a couple of times.
It's a great example of the (usual) gulf in class between top Brits and top Americans.
