[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

On an April morning in 2010, Venezuelan boxing legend Edwin "El Inca" Valero, an undefeated two-time world champion, murdered his wife. Two days later, he took his own life in his prison cell at 28 years of age. Now, his violent and troubling story is making headlines and causing controversy all over again, in a politically charged scandal over a banned film about his life.

great fighter.

This movie was made in poor taste. These assh*les aren't thinking about the kids that were left orphaned. Wait til they're grown-ups and ask them permission about having them and their family's tragic story portrayed on films. Mother****ers behind this movie need hang themselves just like Valero did.

Chill, whiner. He was a public figure, an entertainer, this comes with the territory. Are you gonna ***** about the thousands and thousands of movies based on tragic irl events? Do you want the producers of war movies to hang themselves too?

There's nothing more disgusting than censorship. ******* punks like you telling society what they should and should not watch, imposing their agendas and ideas on people. If you love state censorship so much why don't you move to China or North Korea and see how much like it

Shut your insensitive ass up. This is wrong, his children are still little kids and they don't need their lives to be portrayed on film. War movies? War movies are much more general, this is singling out one family dumb*ss. Think about the kids for a second before you come here imposing your political idealogies. This isn't about politics, it's about the lack sensitivty that hollywood has on the kids that went through the worst of all in this incident. After what they've been through, now they have to have their lives magnified on the big screen. I hope this film fails lift the ban.

Anyway Valero was a piece of **** woman-beater, don't you hipocrites hate that? With the Floyd incident you all like to bring up? This is 100x worse, and here you are like a **** head saying this woman beater, murderer, should have a film based on him. You must be a really ****ty person too. Go hang yourself.

You're the only hypocrite here, asshat. Pretending to take a holier-than-thou stance while simultaneously telling people to hang themselves. but that's exactly what ******* pricks do all the time. TONS of the movies you watch and probably enjoy are based on real life tragedies, and yeah, they also ¨single out¨ familes and individuals. by your logic, we would have to ban all films about public persons, award winning movies like Dog Day Afternoon, Bonnie and Clyde, Monster, Hotel Rwanda, Snowtown, etc couldn't have been made because they could be offensive to the families of the criminals depicted in them. **** off with your censorship, whiner

And nobody is praising Valero, and we know he's depicted as a scumbag in the film (that's the reason Valero's family is giving to ban the movie) so calm your **** ******, I'm far from prasing a woman beater, I'm not a Floyd or Wilder fan (not saying all of them are, though).

A lowly piece of **** and sad insight into human nature that people still acknowledge him

Hope they beat and humiliated him real good before he hung himself
