Your favorite Boxing Movies, and why?

i liked Cinderella man. decent acting, and it was a true story, which makes it even better.
i had no idea who james braddock was. the dude who played braddocks manager was good in that role. "Jes-Sus Christ!" lol.

raging bull is also a classic. deNiro was badass in this one. as was joe peschi.

rocky 1&2 was good, but his incredibly dumb character kinda ruins it. "Hey adrian, why werent cows allowed to cross the road? because they forgot their horns! yooooooooooo!!!"

what are some other ones?

just watched the fighter not bad. i watched that ward/neary fight live on hbo. good scrap.

I can't really think of any other top boxing flicks, FightFan, besides the one's you've mentioned.

I'd agree about the Rocky flicks, corny and unbelievable as hell, but still entertaining.

Just from a technical and true story line aspect, Raging Bull is about the best, most well acted boxing flick ever.

Cinderella man was another high quality boxing flick based on a true story, i'd rank it 2nd after Raging Bull, great story line.
