I'd say it's at least on a par with it, probably better.
It's more boxing orientated than When We Were Kings (never could be bothered with the stuff about the music festival). This is far more insightful, with anecdotes by many who were there in Manilla, even Amelia Marcos is interviewed.

I'm a bit behind, I had it tapped and watched it today.
Nice that it was from mainly from Joe's perspective. I've read his autobiography and you can see why he might be a little miffed.
I love Ali but the one thing Joe Fraiser was not was an Uncle Tom.
