@combatesdeboxeo it had to be 1971 because the Raging Bull came out in 1980 and also because when Jake hands Burt the book he wrote in it (i'm paraphrasing) the only actor I would want to play me.
@JEROME021000 Sorry but the broadcast date is September 13, 1971. Burt Reynolds guest hosted, and his guests were Alex Karras, Charo, and The Amazing Kreskin; the boxers were only part of a brief segment. When this episode was shot "The Tonight Show" was still based in New York, and moved to California in May 1972. There are episode guides for the series online where you can easily confirm the broadcast date.

Burt Reynolds could throw em. Southpaw, fast, dunno if he'd have made it as a pro, but I sure wouldn't wanna go w him and am 3-4 yrs younger and ex amateur
My Godfather Steve Belloise was a great fighter of the 1940's. He was consistently ranked as the leading MIddleweight. contender. He missed his chance at the title because right after Pearl Harbor he enlisted in the Navy. After the war LaMotta got the title shot and Uncle Steve lost the elimination bout to Sugar Ray Robinson who then went on to beat LaMotta. Uncle Steve remained in the Naval Reserve and trained many sailors at Ft. Schuyler Naval Station in the Bronx. He was a wonderful man.
@robatsea2009 This was the whole boxing segment? It seemed like LaMotta was going to show Burt a boxing move when they came back from commercial. I guess Burt wasn't joking when he said he didn't want to fight him!
man thats classic. where did you get ahold of this footage? cheers for putting it up. do you happen to have the rest of this show? or the jan 21st episode when jake is back on?
This was the last New York set of "The Tonight Show," inaugurated fall 1971; its last ever use was when Johnny Carson did three weeks' worth of shows that aired from Nov. 13 to Dec. 1, 1972, more than six months after the program "permanently" moved to Burbank.
it was in 1971, not 81, simply calculating the age of the guys

Unfortunately I do not post entire programs, clips only. The boxing segment was just this brief bit - they were not on the entire show.
