Day of the Fight

00:00:39 This is the story of a fight and of a fighter

00:00:58 Begins the taughest part of being a boxer

00:01:18 Because he is rapidly climbing the middleweight championship of the world

00:01:40 His father is away

00:02:01 Now through the quite morning streets of New York

00:02:51 He's a lawer and Walter's manager

00:03:22 At noon Walter gets a complete examination from the commission doctor

00:03:40 And he knows that he must

00:04:02 Often sitting proudly like this with the boy

00:04:22 Jabbing, shifting, looking for an oppening

00:04:51 His family was against it

00:05:05 He'll be glad when it's finally here

00:05:49 Unlike a lot of people he's got something to move towards

00:06:03 In a friends car, may bring him nearer to the middleweight crown

00:06:25 Behind the arena

00:06:40 A man can barely moves his body around

00:07:05 But when the fight is over

00:07:21 It's almost as if the brothers were going into the ring together

00:07:40 But in a way that's gone pretty quickly for a couple of boys

00:08:04 As he gets ready to walk out to the arena

00:08:22 They belong to the fierce new person

00:11:54 He's done it, he has K.Oed Bobby James

00:12:09 But to him it's worth all the hardship and the risk
