[MrByaeger]

great video of a great fighter, much respect. whole body movement like nobody before him, a true pioneer that set the stage for many future fighters. and please, children, go squabble somewhere else. the grown ups are talking here.

[nextmovebestmove]

Thanks for posting this gem on such a great Italian-American fighter! In his prime, Willie couldn't be touched, and people often forget that all 4 of his fights with Sandy Saddler happened AFTER the airplane accident. Excellent video quality too.

[RadioUgly]

Bruce Lee used to watch old footage of Willie Pep. I hear he won a round without throwing a punch.

[RadioUgly]

@RadioUgly Ah this is the show where I heard that. Now I feel dumb.

[crowley0312]

Pep was in a plane crash that almost cost him his life and was back in the ring 5 months later.

Mayweather can't get so much as a fuckin bug bite before he retires for a couple years.

That really speaks about where both of these people should be ranked.

[sergiolemus87]

did he ever win a title

[rubyrola1959]

@sergiolemus87 Yes, he was the World Featherweight Champion 1942-1948, lost it to Sandy Saddler, then won it back in Feb. 1949, and held it till Sept. 1950 when he lost to Saddler once more.

[STFU42day]

@sergiolemus87

yeah he won a few when he was in featherweight

[sergiolemus87]

This guy is like Julio Cesar Chavez

[cheeesefunnel]

177 more wins than Pacman

[SimonHenrichsen]

[khorse69]

This is where Ali got his style from!!

[nae8man87]

@khorse69 suck ur moms cock, and do the 69 w/ her too mr 69 lol, i bet ur ass more folks heard of ALI than papalio....ur full of shit dude, bigtime, another hater of our black race.....as u can see i was the only person willing enough to follow up ur stupid comment

[khorse69]

@nae8man87 Hey dumb fuck go do your research even ali himself says in an interview that he copied some of his fighting style from willie pep and also sugar ray robinson. You dumb fuck!!You fuck witt should learn shit before opening your mouth you dumb fuck!!

[nae8man87]

@khorse69 fuck you dickweed, ALI aint get shit frm pepsqueak, if so u woulda gave me the coordinates to go find it, so fuck u and all...ALI, da man, we dont take notes frm whites or EYE talians, wtf ever he is, yall whites take notes from us, ask around, willie pep or ALI.....mite get two peps from da ppl/public...u stupid mufucka, gone tell dat man where he got his style from...is you fool! make ur head get small(disappear)

[MURKYDEEP100]

@nae8man87 That attitude of yours will give you nothin' but a disadvantage in the ring my friend. what are you watchin this vid for anyway, shouldn't you only be watching videos of black fighters?

[crowley0312]

@nae8man87 Hey nigger, guess what. Blacks learn their shit from whites. Behind almost every great black boxer is a white guy who taught him how to fight. D'mato and Tyson, Choynski and Johnson, Seamon and Louis,

Hell, even your master ali was taught by Dundee. That's right, your black hero learned everything from Italians. Suck on that monkey.

[boomboommia]

@crowley0312 Italians aren't White. FAIL.

[crowley0312]

@boomboommia The world census would beg to differ.

[ah93704]

@crowley0312 lol

[joeydudester1]

you're right khorse69! You can see and indentify the way Pep threw his right and in defense turn his face in perfect timing and Ali has gone on record to say he based some of his footwork and defense on Willy Pep. Tyson is a classic historian on boxing and also laid much respect to Pep. Tyson basically saying Pep was amazing for boxing at that time and definitely amongst the greats. I dont understand this racists rant from nae8man87 but thanks for adding knowledge

[khorse69]

@joeydudester1 I simply ignore nae8man87 because its obvious he doesnt know a thing about boxing, some people never understand, in the fight game fighters will always learn from those who have gone before them. Great fighters study from the greats!

[arama0010]

What a Legend, Greatest defensive master and what a record!

[jamecpa10]

papaleo was a good style figther, too many skills

[boloboxing]

You couldn't hit him in the ass with a handful of rice.

I got a car, a refrigerator and a car, and they're all working.
