FightFilmsGuy's video: Ezzard Charles -vs- Bob Satterfield 1954 Original TV Broadcast

Not even the finest wine ages better than Ezzard Charles. In this 1954 title elimination fight, Charles serves up a precision knockout against one of the great bombers of the 1950s, Bob Satterfield. Charles had kept a full schedule of fights since losing the heavyweight title to Jersey Joe Walcott two years earlier, with this showdown putting him in line for a match with champion Rocky Marciano. Satterfield, 34-14-2 coming in, started fast and had Charles, 82-10-1, in trouble in the first round. The Cincinnati Cobra survived but Satterfield continued to show little respect for the former champ. During the first minute of round two, as Satterfield bore in, Charles countered with a brilliant inside left hook that dropped Satterfield for the count. It was a brief but exciting fight, with a great effort by Satterfield. Charles, however, kept a cool head and prevailed. When Charles looks this good, I end up wishing his fights had lasted longer. But the Cobra strikes when the Cobra is ready. More from The Fight Film Collector: http://fightfilmcollector.blogspot.com/
