I don't really consider myself a collector, but I do have a decent copy of the bloody war between Mando Ramos and Sugar Ramos in Los Angeles (1970?). You hear the crowd noise but there is no vocal commentary. I'm not sure if it is considered rare, but one of my favorites is Eder Jofre-Jose Medal.

Not sure, only know of 1 or 2 other people that have got Dwight Qawi vs Matthew Saad Muhammad II besides me, got all of Jofre's fights (that I know of exist, could be others), Joe Louis - Freddie Beshore, have some very limited footage of Monzon vs Lee.
Will go through fights again later see what other rare ones I got.

Its probably not rare at all now, but I seem to remember Ali vs Berbick being a tough find back in the 90s.
I'd like to get hold of some Harry Greb or welterweight Ray Robinson!
There are also some 'rare' films of very popular fights. There are two films of Ali vs Frazier 1 and Marciano vs Walcott 1.........and the rare ones are vastly superior but very hard to find!

The rare fights that I have hardly compare to those that I know are in existance, but do not possess. It seems like I'm about the only person who has missed out on Carpentier vs Jeannette for example. I do not have the Langford vs Iron Hague fight, nor the footage of Tommy Loughran schooling Dempsey in sparring.
I have some rare fights, such as Frazier vs Doug Jones and Galento vs Nova, but it's not much of a collection when it comes down to it. Tough to get your hands on the truly rare ones out of Finland. I have some films of Finnish fighters such as Olli Mäki, Gunnar Bärlund and others though, and about everything on Ingemar Johansson.

One that I do have that I was told was rare was Saad Muhammad's incredible KO win over Lotte Mwali. It had to be one of the best KO punches ever.
