Dead at 76. Great story
Yes just heard the story. I have not watched the film but yes remarkable story.
RIP Champ
The only fight of his I ever saw was when he destroyed Emile Griffith.
I don't follow Halls of Fame, personally I think they're boring and useless, but is he in Canastota?
RIP.
I own the movie...received it as a gift a while back. Never saw it though. Is it any good?
RIP.
Hell of a story
One of my favorites movie! Chocking story! Hard growing up in his shoes in the 70s! Glad they made a movie 'bout it!
Rip!
The one with Denzell? It was worth a watch as a boxing fan..Quote:

They made a movie about the motherfucker. He has a Bob Dylan song for him.
Dude was famous!
I heard that too. That's the main reason I put off watching it...but I'll probably watch it in the next few days. It's not the first and certainly won't be the last Hollywood film to exaggerate details.Quote:
