What's your favourite boxing DVD/Video?

[Conrad]

It's my Dad's birthday soon and I wanted to get him a boxing video or DVD. Just wondered if anyone had any recommendations?

I know it'll be boxer specific for some people as we all have our favourite fighters but that's Ok. That said ideally I'd like a compilation of all time classic bouts or a good one on a Hall Of Famers career...

haha Yvonne, That is a blast from the past. I had that video - not sure where it is now. Thought Glenn as the presenter was abit ropey but enjoyed the fights.

When Louis Met Chris Eubank... Classic.

[yvonne]

HA!Thats great to hear mate!HA.I must admit that he's(GLEN MURPHY's)brief boxing skills throughout the video in the GYM are great....in a funny way!His shadow boxing skills are 2nd to none,not to mention his 5 second skip session.Good thrase at the end of the 1hour vid is'nt it?...you know the one!....."Happy boxing days!"Great stuff,ha

It really depends how hardcore a fan your dad is. If he's like most dads, a casual fan who only really knows the big name fighters then two dvd's stand out a mile.

Champions Forever featuring Ali, Foreman, Frazier and Holmes imo the greatest boxing doc of all time.

When We Were Kings, documentary on Ali leading up to the Rumble In The jungle.

The only reason not to choose these two would be if your dad already has them as they are the best boxing doc's ever made imo
