Probably two of the biggest Middleweight title fights that no one has ever seen are Zale-Graziano I and II. These incredible wars, reminiscent of all the great two-sided fight wars that have talked about may never be seen, because, shockingly, THEY WERE NEVER FILMED!!!
The reason was during World War II and shortly thereafter many fights were created using "Silver Nitrate Film." This film was very expense to produce and maintain during the wartime era, so in many cases the ONLY big fights that were saved from about 1940-1945 were Joe Louis fights. If any of you collectors have other fights from that era, and even more rare that they are in their entity, HOLD ON TO THEM FOR DEAR LIFE!
Zale-Graziano III was filmed and in the trades/collectors market. The big prizes are coming up with complete versions of Zale-Graziano I and II. They were the Gatti-Ward I and II and Robinson-Gatti I and II for their time.

I mean duh...if it was never filmed...come on...why even mention that then.
What fights that DO exist in footage have you not seen yet?
That would be a more interesting question (and I'd like to hear the answer).

Zamora rocked Zarate pretty good there too...good fight.
Zamora was so much smaller though.
I don't think I've seen Cooper Moorer or any 175 lb Moorer fights.

Cooper-Moorer....fun first round! LOL! I won't say anymore. For Moorer, Light-Heavyweight was his best. For some reason when he moved up to heavyweight he almost seemed to want to stop trying to hurt guys. Like he didn't care or something.

Youtube!
yeah...i've seen the highlights against Gomez, Azumah and little Red...just never actually saw a fight in its entirety...its true...i am not saying it just to fuck with you.
there are probably loads of fights out there i think i know but in actuality have not seen the entire fight. Many of the old timers...even some of my faves...have I seen an entire Jack Dempsey fight???? Saw the Tunney highlights for sure...Jess Willard being bounced all over the ring...but probably not the entire 3 rounds...maybe i have...can't recall.
