Boxing movies, The greatest, the worst

[Makunouchi]

I've seen a few films in my time and was wondering what you folks think the greatest and worst boxing films of all time are. I don't think there are many good ones it seems as if boxing movies have always had pitfalls.
Recently watching that horrible piece of trash "Dempsey" had made me think of posting this. Have fun.

No such thing as great boxing movie. They all suck. The fight scenes look fake and you see actors punching air. They should make the fight sequences as real as possible. How? Use special effects, they can do that in this day and age. Make them fight in slow mo and make it appear as if the boxers' punches are really landing, then speed up the film later. OR hire real boxers.

Raging Bull is the greatest movie that has anything to do with boxing.

[The Gambler1981]

The Great White Hype is the most underrated boxing movie of all time~

It is funny but you probably can't get closer to the current state of boxing than that~

The best is Cinderella Man (2005)

I liked Kid Galahad (1937), Gentleman Jim (1942), Million Dollar Baby (2004) and Gladiator (1992).

The Fighter, Ali, and Raging Bull are great...........Rocky Marciano, Phantom Punch, and Great White Hype are pretty bad.
