    I think a movie about the Mayweather family would be a good movie. Theyve all boxed Roger and Floyd jnr being champions Jeff and Floyd snr contenders.
    All the stuff thats happened out of the ring to them all would make for a great movie.
    A ***********al family that are characters in their own right theyd definitley be good movie material.

        As one poster has already mentioned there is already a film dedicated to this story- Joe and Max.
        Max Schmelling comes across well in it, he was a very reluctant representative of **** germany.

            Joe Frazier is the REAL Rocky Balboa.

            Even fights kinda like him but with far better skills than Balboa.

                yea I didn't understand it either, but I guess there was money to be made

                "In 1938, during the Kristallnacht, Schmeling hid two teenage sons of a ***ish friend in his Berlin hotel room, protecting them from the SS and Gestapo at great risk to himself. The two boys, Henry and Werner Lewin, were eventually smuggled out of Germany with Schmeling's help."

                -according to wikipedia

                  Bobby Chacon story would make a great movie. Family deaths, and amazing fights.

                    That's mostly from his own path he chose to take. I agree it's been a roller coaster, but he practically had control of his destiny while others were blown about like leaves in the wind.

                    I'm a terrible poet, BTW.
