    Just watch the movie and shut up. Be happy that they're still making boxing movies and not crap ufc movies. Do your research and you'll find lots of movies on black fighters.

      Really looking forward to this one.

      Cinderella Man and The Hurricane are still my favorite boxer movies of all-time.

          I'm too lazy and drunk at the moment to look and see if I have already commented on this, but it's because of his story outside of the ring. This movie will not be just about his boxing career because if it was it wouldn't have been made into a movie.

            Marky Mark wanted to make it happen. So it happened. Im sure if Will Smith wanted to do a movie on Roy Jones instead of Ali he could have got that made also.

                Still can't believe there hasn't been a Mike Tyson biopic yet. Mike's career lends itself to a movie. Youngest heavyweight champ ever, to his downfall, and now his reemergence.

                  HBO did one.

                    Corrales had a very interesting life - his personal problems, marriage issues, going to jail. And he was a warrior in the ring!

                      Id love to see that movie. But from what I remember, he had alot of mental problems and demons that might make that movie even sadder to watch.
