Tonight, our coast-to-coast
hookup...
:32:02
brings you the biggest
pugilistic event of the year.
:32:04
Max Baer versus the Cinderella Man,
Jimmy Braddock.
:32:09
And in a few moments...
:32:10
the contestants for
tonight's championship bout...
:32:12
will be making their way
to the ring.
:32:35
God Almighty.
:32:44
Jim Braddock's rise
from the soup lines...
:32:46
to number one heavyweight contender
has truly been miraculous.
:32:50
No, never in all my years have I seen this arena
so quiet.
:33:21
You can do it, Jimmy!
:33:30
James J. Braddock,
the Cinderella Man...
:33:33
who just a year ago
was standing in a bread line.
:33:35
Braddock's a tremendous
underdog with the bettors...
:33:37
but you wouldn't know it from the reaction of
the crowd.
:33:40
Madison Square Garden is on its feet and the noise
is deafening!
:33:43
An astonishing crowd is
gathered here this evening.
:33:45
I saw people lining up to buy
tickets tonight who looked...
:33:48
as if they were spending
their last dollar.
:33:49
But they're here now
and 35,000 strong!
:33:52
Listen to them!
