Just a boxing question from a non-boxer. I'm trying to get a gift for this boxer who owns a boxing gym and lives breathes and sleeps boxing, so he probably has everything already. Oh and I can't find out what he has or doesn't have. (It's a complicated situation, don't ask.) Is there any rare boxing footage that is highly unavailable that he wouldn't actually have yet? Or anything I should be looking for. Under $50 please.

There's a video that may be available at Blockbuster in your area.
Its an Ali vs. Marciano theoretical exhibition match. The match never took place; rather it was a computer generated event that took certain statistics into play and delivered an outcome.
You might search for it at Amazon, too. Here it is:
A recommendation:
"I read about the computer tournament years ago and now to have this on DVD to experience, it is fantastic! Watching the "bout" was just incredible. As a huge boxing fan as well as an internet boxing writer, I learned a lot about both Marciano and Ali. The highlight of the package for me were the radio calls of all the bouts in the tournament that led up to the Marciano-Ali contest. The descriptions are so vivid, you sometimes forget you are not listening to real bouts. This is a boxing fan's dream DVD!! " -
