FightFilmsGuy's video: Stanley Ketchel vs Billy Papke IV 7-5-09 Extended Collector s Cut Part 1

This is Part 1 of an extended length Collector’s Cut of the Ketchel-Papke IV fight. The video is edited from three different sources – a print I acquired in the 1970s, a Big Fights Inc 16mm print, and a digital scan of raw footage. Each print was different and had footage not included in the other copies. Based on my study of the footage and fight reports, the film shows action from Rounds 2, 3, 8, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 ,18 and with one additional round that could be either 19 or 20. I spent several weeks in front of a video editor matching and combing, often frame by frame, the three prints of the film for this article. As a collector, I assume there is more footage out there, but I can’t verify that one way or another, so I worked with what I have. This is a partial reconstruction, and a work in progress. Enjoy the fight, --Carl Complete article on Blogger: https://fightfilmcollector.blogspot.com/2022/
