    Here is a fact for you. It's a FACT that you can't show anything stating the Pep-Robinson amateur fight was ever filmed, let alone trying to prove film exists. If this isn't a FACT, feel free to prove it.
    - - I seen the ama film, or purported to be the ama film shot from the rafters.

    I seen the two elderly legends hold a choreographed exhibition.

    All you see is your Horse's patootie honking at you.

      So no proof? Just the ramblings and hallucinations of an old drunk. Thanks, we get the picture.

        - - Could care less about rounding up such an obscure fight after Google pulled the plug on all those great fights.

        I've got well over 100 fights I scored or made notes on approaching the 200 mark, and many others that I saw that were unscorable because of regrettable conditions at their filming.

        Face it son, gobbling pearls cast before you is the best you can muster.

          Lmao.....you could care less about rounding up such an obscure fight?? The fact is you can't even prove it was filmed let alone find footage. It was never filmed. If it was and footage surface 85 years later there would be an incredible amount of hoopla in the sports world and boxing community because of the participants. I believe "obscure" is the perfect word to describe this fight. "Not discovered or known about".

          In other words........NO PROOF!!

            What you haven't got is the fight in question.

            Just realised you claim to have seen Robinson v Pep.
            -"The film has no bearing on what Ibro does, and they have a lot of members and U dummy ain't asked any much less all.

            The fight was so nothing aside from the initial rush of seeing them as teens I had no incentive to ever watch it again. It was obviously produced well after the fact as it had the usual added commentary, but it's also been 15 yrs since I seen it."

            This is their later exhibition done in the 60's.


            It;s my understanding their amateur fight . in which the greatly outweighed Pep lost his unbeaten record was NOT filmed.Why would it have been?​

              He claims to have seen film of the 1938 Pep-Robinson amateur fight. He also claimed a big hoopla surrounding this fight, even though Pep himself says he didn't know it was Robinson he was fighting. I just want to see a single shred of evidence the fight was filmed. I've looked into, emailed the IBRO on more than one occasion and there is nothing that even indicates this fight was filmed. He's lying.

                  - - Point uno: Pep and Robby just skinny preadolescent teens taken to the arena to fight.

                  Point dos: The fight was filmed from the rafters of the arena, perhaps surreptitiously.

                  Thank you for their orchestrated elder exhibition that I mentioned previously.

                    The rafters of the arena? They fought in a feed store.

                      I have run into at least three different descriptions of what the venue actually was. (Pep v. Roberts)

                      It was a feed store, at least at one point, but there are a few other references as well. It seems over the years, the venue had served as several different businesses, including as a local arena for amateur sports; in interviews people refer to the venue based on the former business they remember best. I think.
