This is a link post James J. Corbett vs Bob Fitzsimmons (17.03.1897) – First Recorded Heavyweight Title Fight (boxing)
No sound, desiccated potato picture quality, missing scenes/reels, some bizarre editing and production decisions...

Baffling fight quality. It looks faker than pro wrestling does today. They fight like children. Boxing has come a loooooooooong way.

Gentleman Jim's ring attire is possibly NSFW in 2026, apparently gender was more fluid in 1897.

This is a normal post he had special attire for his ring?

This is a normal post If he was wearing a butt plug, we'd be able to see it.

This is a normal post Jim's attire in some of his photos is little different from that worn by boxers when Gillray was drawing them
apart from the shoes not having buckles

This is a normal post I'll have to check my cigarette cards for pugilists wearing s&m gear.

This is a normal post Looks like mixing and matching different film.
Maybe some of it had deteriorated.
