The Set-Up is a personal favorite.



I can't really recommend it, beautiful visuals aside, but you haven't seen Raging Bull?

He plays Sonny Liston in Phantom Punch which is on my list.

Never heard of Against the Ropes mate or seen The Mike Tyson Story just the new documentary so I will look for them.

As for Ali, the Will Smith film, I tried to watch it and turned it off after 30 minutes, very boring.

Never heard of the Set-up I'll look for it and I forgot about Raging Bull, of course I've seen it just been a long time since.
