Jimmy Bivins was one of those fighters who beat the best but not at the right time. He beat both Archie moore and Ezzard Charles but neither ever had the titie when he did. He is the only guy in history that was rated the number one contender at both the light heavyweight division and the heavy weight division at the same time.

Jimmy Bivins is still alive today, one of the very last links to this bygone era in boxing, the Golden Age.

Two great fighters. Charles in his prime may be the greatest fighter ever. He beat EVERYBODY, in, my opinion, the greatest and toughest era in the history of boxing. No, he didn't beat Marciano but he was past his prime and Marciano was in his.

Charles was a fistic marvel.

Thanks for posting. Two great fighters, but not exactly a great fight! Lots of clinching.

What a slugfest! Charles ate a lot of shots looking for the knockout with the hook, yet he made up for the headhunting with good bodywork. Bivins has a good jab.
great upload

EZZARD CHARLES has been the greatest at 175! and 1 of the greatest that ever lived.

I believe the Bivins' fight with Joe Louis is on film, I seem to remember watching it a long time ago.
Great video. Charles is the most underrated fighter in boxing history. It would be nice to see more film of Charles. Too bad film of his fights with Archie Moore do not exist, those would be priceless.

A film of Moore-Bivins V (in which Bivins was stopped in the 9th round) exists and is actually not that hard to find.
I'll see whether I can upload it on youtube sometime in the future. I'm not sure if the quality is any good.
