  • its in end 70s debut 80s

    watch the video " the way it was" in right

    thank you

  • @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.

  • 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.

  • @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.

  • it was in 1971, not 81, simply calculating the age of the guys

  • Jake fuckin owned him :)

  • glad to see that douchebag reynolds is getting his house foreclosed on, what a cocky idiot.

  • badly dressed old boxers, oh hang its the 70s everyone is badly dressed
