Why in the movie Ali do they try to make it look like Foreman was winning the fight?

Why in the movie 300 do they make it seem like the Spartans held their own when history has it that they got their azes handed to them in less than one day? Like I said its drama let it be. Take a chill poll down a 40 of OE and put some hand lotion
      Of all the historical inaccuracies in that film you pick something that actually happened to use as your point. Lol

      The Spartans and other Greeks did hold there own for 7 days which ultimately allowed the Greeks to beat the Persians.

        If I recall that did happen, just with less epic music. Ali took a bit of a break laid on the ropes and was getting pounded to the body. Some people even though Ali was throwing the fight

              True, but that was around 8000 men, the 300 Spartans ( along with others)that stayed behind after they had been betrayed and flanked, only lasted a short time.

                    I'm half greek and I read that, and was like "What the hell"??? Now they exaggerated the number of persians, as it wasn't a million of them, but it was thousands of them. But I love how he picks an example of somethin g that actually did happen.
