Ted Lewis vs Georges Carpentier - Fightbuild-up Colorized
On 11th May 1922, professional boxers Georges Carpentier and Ted "Kid" Lewis competed in a match at the Olympia. It saw Carpentier successfully defend his World Light Heavyweight and EBU Heavyweight Titles by KO in controversial fashion, after taking advantage of a referee decision against Lewis. The bout is historic for being the first boxing match to be broadcast live on British radio.
The fight itself, which was hyped up across the UK, proved controversial.[3][7] Despite being 25 lbs lighter, it was actually the Kid who gained the upper hand, landing several blows on Carpentier in the first round.[3] However, Lewis was becoming overly-aggressive to referee Joe Palmer's liking, who held Lewis' shoulders to warn the Brit regarding excessive use of holding.[3] The Kid was momentarily distracted by protesting Palmer's call, allowing Carpentier to land a powerful right hook against his opponent.[3][7] Another right hook to the jaw proved a decisive enough blow for a KO victory, much to the displeasure of the crowd, who made accusations of "foul" during the radio broadcast.[3][7][9] However, Palmer felt the attack was within the rules of boxing, giving the Frenchman the victory after just 2:15 of action.
Lewis would later express frustration at how he lost, but remained cordial, stating "I felt cheated, but I didn't bear any grudge".[3] Dempsey, who was present at the Olympia but was busy signing autographs during the fight, noted "It was merely a matter of a game man against a good big man."[7] Carpentier would eventually lose his titles to Battling Siki a bout later on 24th September 1922.[1][2] He continued boxing until retiring in 1926.[1][2] Meanwhile, Lewis captured and held three simultaneous Welterweight titles, including the BBBofC, Commonwealth Boxing Council, and EBU European titles, on two separate occasions.[6][7] He would eventually retire in 1929, and has since been declared one of Britain's best ever boxers.[7][6] Elsewhere, Marconi followed up its sports coverage with a feature on the Boat Race, but it and other radio station operators would become restricted to just providing sports reports for several years, following pressure from the print media.[11][12][4][13][9] It would not be until 1927, when the BBC, which also incorporated 2MT and 2LO later in 1922, started regular live radio broadcasts of sporting events by covering the England-Wales rugby match on 15th January 1927.

Most people don't know that Baer was fighting Louis with a broken right hand, an injury he sustained in his previous fight with James Braddock.
The Greatest!
Louis hurt his right hand in this fight. He hit Farr high in the head, about round 3. There was x-rays taken of his right hand after the fight. Farr was a tough fighter 3000 rounds by 23yo is crazy compared to today's.
I remember this match liston was a good man
Damn I didn’t know Patterson was a killer like that ! He’s so fast 😮 the fastest heavyweight I ever seen
Thpinal
Jon Bernthal could so play Jack Dempsey in a movie
he should hv moved to Broke Back Mountain
The greatest conditioning heavyweight champion pro boxer of all time.. Rocky Marciano..1923-1969..rest in peace
Those old school legends look tough a nails
The ref in this fight Frank Sikora was the ref for many big fights in Chicago. He ref’s Robinson v LaMotta and many more
A washed up greatest of all time Robinson still competitive. Sadly Ray struggled with the likes of Basilio and Fullmer who he would have easily handled in his prime. No disrespect to Basilio. Lots of disrespect to Fullmer. The dirtiest fighter of his and previous generations. A dirty fighting Neanderthal.

Another opponent favored against Marciano gets put into a nap.
Ah, cool shit
Underrated video! Love dome Zach Hemsey as well.
color for a while. lol. i love this film, with him telling this story. to people not familiar, he was the welterweight champ and choynski was a heavyweight (there being no super middle let along light heavy class at the time). he destroyed one of the great boxer-punchers of the era at that time. walcott was a small welter, 5 feet tall. choynski was 5'11. one of the great david-and-goliath encounters in history
05:03 ⚡ I love Joe Louis and Pastor is a beast, as well.
What a brutal sport -- intentionally causing brain damage.... Did the promoters ever follow what happened to the casualties in later years? We do have clips of Ali to consider..
🤨💬 I've always heard "Big doesn't always mean Bad" 🤠 Yup ❗ G~G. ✏ 🗳 ☑ 🇺🇸.
🤨💬 0:30 Say boy's what say We do an easy mile then stop by Googsyś for a few of dem Buds 👍🏽 Yup❕ G~G. ✏ 🗳 ☑ 🇺🇸.
Niggas saying Joe was older and past his prime as if Charles weren’t 30 pounds lighter during the fight lmao.
20 fighters that would’ve defeated Marciano off the top of my head: Foreman, Frazier, Ali, Norton, Liston, Holmes, both Klitschko brothers, Mike Tyson, prime Joe Louis, Lennox, Holyfield, Bowe, Morrison, Fury, Joshua, Andy Ruiz 😂, Parker, Zhang, Usyk 🤷♂️
Everybody is beatable
Ok
Wouldve loved to see him and Tyson in their prime face off.
Every single punch thrown with intent to hurt. And hurt they did! G.O.A.T.
2 great boxers . Great fight
At that pace they could had fight 13th more rounds the same night with the same result Liston by ko in each round. I guess he could had fought the same night against Patterson ans Johansson and ko both in the first round
I’ve heard many say that maybe Johnson threw the fight, was not really KO’d cuz he was shielding his eyes from the sun. So why would he wait until the 26th round to throw a fight or fake being KO’d?? Doesn’t really make sense. IMO, he said f it, I’m tired af and I give up. He did get dropped too, def looked like the punch connected well. Maybe he wasn’t knocked out cold, but his legs def weren’t moving.
Cool seeing him check the rules for rabbits punches, and then the ref feign ignorance of what that is
He is a handsome man.
When some boxing fan who is a genius in AI gets a hold of this, the colorization of it will be 100% better.
If they meet 10 times lixton will continue to defeat Patterson. Sonny lixton is a wild person, I still find it hard to belief that Al I defeated him
I don’t think basilio enjoyed the interview !
Jefferies was a beast but having dropped so much weight and incorporating his inactivity and age he had little chance....he should have had at least 2 warm u fights.
Jack Dempsey oozes class. He's another Sinatra
And the good ol' USA left poor Joe on the canvas from there on out.
The GOAT doesn’t get enough respect on his name. The Rock went 49-0 ffs! He quit at 32, and did it all right. He was also a KO king, and could deliver at any moment.
This is the only fight Bethea was ever knocked out in. He lost seven teeth.
and people talk about mayweather as the best , they don't understand how great Nicolino locche was , 117 win and only 4 lose , 14 draw, for a total of 136 match .
the legend of legends
Rocky was great for his day but my God it drives me insane how people can't see how many fighters after him would have chopped him to pieces. Muhammad Ali would have won every second of every round on his way to a late TKO or UD victory as would Larry Holmes, George Foreman, Lennox Lewis, Riddick Bowe, and so many others. He would not be able to handle the big boxers but who's to say with the brawlers like Tyson, Holyfield, etc ...
