Jersey Joe Walcott 🥊 Beautiful Boxing   Born in Pennsauken, New Jersey, Walcott was an American professional boxer who competed from 1930 to 1953. He held the NYSAC, NBA, and The Ring Heavyweight titles from 1951 to 1952, and broke the record for the oldest man to win the title, at the age of 37. That record would eventually be broken in 1994 by 45-year-old George Foreman. Despite holding the world Heavyweight title for a relatively short period of time, Walcott was regarded among the best heavyweights in the world during the 1940s and 1950s. Despite losing four title shots, Walcott joined a small handful of boxers who claimed the world title on their fifth try. Charles fought Walcott in another title fight on July 18, 1951, at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh. This time Walcott gave his best performance of their entire series of fights, winning most of the rounds and knocking out Charles in the seventh round, with a left hook to the jaw, to finally become world heavyweight champion at the age of 37, this knockout is considered to be one of the best in boxing history. This is a compilation of Jersey Joe's greatest moments of footwork & defense.   #boxing #jerseyjoewalcott #joelouis #ezzardcharles #rockymarciano #highlight #ko #knockout #tribute #power #speed #heavyweight #champion #undisputed #footwork #defense #counterpunch #underrated #skills #muhammadali #cakewalk #boxingknockouts #highlightreel #training #technique #motivation #boxinghistory #hanzagod

00:00So I want to go down and wreck it as saying that you were the hottest puncher I ever fought,

00:05and the night that I fought you, I believe you were the greatest.

00:08Your punches were strong and powerful, you were moving around so good.

00:13Jazz. We are going to try to investigate jazz.

00:17Not through the usual historical approach of up the river from New Orleans, etc.,

00:23which has become all too familiar, but through approaching the music itself.

00:28Jazz is a very big word.

00:31It covers a multitude of songs.

01:14Well, there you have it.

01:16Melody, rhythm, tone, color, form, harmony.

01:20In each department, there are special features that make jazz instead of just music.

01:26Let's now put them all together and hear a full-blown, all-out, happy blues.

01:31Oh, did you know that blues could be happy?

01:34Just listen.

01:37Let's get in...

01:37Hey, let's go there.

02:16What we're hearing now is jazz in the present tense, still a fresh and vital art with a

02:24solid past and an exciting future. I love it because it's an original kind of emotional expression. It is all

02:35jazz and I love it all.
