That was amazing! Very well done, usually these ESPN docs arent that great, this one was

they playing the movie about Kims life right now... its a korean film

This fight did bring in the 12 round championship round to a start. But, i've heard and read that it is also so you can fit a championship fight int an 1 hours time for Television. The networks also wanted fewer rounds less time and more commercials = money for the networks. This wasn't mentioned. They should bring back the 15 rounds. So many fights would have ended differntly if 15 rounds were still around.

Crazy how they made a movie after this guys death. He must of been famous over there or something.

15 rounds would be great, the old timers did it, why not the new era fighters who have modern training equitment and training techniques. We would see a lot less robbers and draws.
