Here's a little something I just cooked up... all inspired and what not!

One of the greats, before MS got Him. Its rumoured He had it when Walcott KOd Him. A healthy Charles was almost unbeatable They say it started as early as 48.

Heya Dadi. You put that together? Great stuff! Thanks!

Wow, that was beautiful Dadi. There was a lot that I didn't know. Ezzard Charles is definitely a boxing textbook worth studying. I loved that you chose Ezzthetic as the background music.

Anyways, a while back Thomas Tabin explained that nifty left hook set-up that Charles used. You can read that thread here: The Safe Left Hook

Thanks guys!

They've actually removed the original audiotrack now. I started with a Charles Mingus bass solo (because Charles himself was a competent bass player) and then it segued into Ezzthetic (my erstwhile internet handle).

I had to use the audioswap feature and put in White Flight by Putter Smith. It fit admirably enough, but I'm a little sad the original music was barred.

It turned out great, Dadi. It's a good tribute to a great fighter. I think that it would be a good idea to apply a similar formula to other fighters. That is highlighting the hidden gems which made them great.

Cool, I can hardly wait.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9b0yHvw-vW0 That was a good one. Marciano fought out of a defensive crouch, and wasn't the easiest fighter to hit. I think Joe Louis said that Marciano was young, strong and hard to hit. He was also an ardent admirer of Willie Pep.

If you enjoy these kinds of videos, I recommend watching the clips put together by Monte Cox. Excellent stuff!

that really is a great video! excellent work there!

Keep 'em coming.
