    I think a Harry Greb movie would be pretty good. Would love to see one about Joe Frazier, Larry Holmes, Manny Pacquiao, Pancho Villa, or Stanley Ketchel (i believe they made one of Ketchel already if I am not mistaken though). Another Jack Johnson film would be great.

      There was a Max Schmeling movie made 2 years ago called ''Max Schmeling'', didn't do too good.

      Maske played Max.

        I do like the idea of Max Schmeling if done right. Arturo Gatti was also a good suggestion. Suprised nobody mentioned Tony Galento or Archie Moore.

          Max Schmeling and Rid**** Bowe would be great films.

              yeah, it would.
              wasnt he ranked in the top 5 p4p near his death? im sure he was at least in the top 10 after the demarco win.

              prior to that he'd been arrested numerous times for giving her beatings. he broke her ribs so badly they punctured her lungs.


              he was a HORRIBLE man
              he killed the mother of his five and eight year olds.
              yeah, i cant really argue with those statements... he was a sick person who needed a lot of help.

              definitely. ive done a lot of research on valero and theres still many questions to be answered.
