    I recall seeing it around the time it was released, thanks for the reminder.


    Interesting one, good shout.


    Any clues as to what it's called? Pretty sure I don't recall ever seeing one on their fights, unless you mean the Fighting Back and The People's Champion films on Mike?

    Yeah I think it's fighting back. Eubank visits him IIRC.

    Gonna watch this right now, thanks. I never fought in any international AM tournaments but friends who did used to tell me EE was just putting out rockstars in all weight classes like they were on an assembly line. I mean, the breakthrough has already taken place probably about ten years ago, but now it's a friggin flood gate. Mind boggling how many top notch talents are coming from Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan etc etc

    Just watched it!!!!!!! Excellent!!!!!!! Bob Bennett will not like it though, nor will the boxing commission of Nevada, and esp. not Tony Weeks! The powers that be in boxing hate Eastern European boxers to the extreme...........

    The doc "Klitschko" is a good one, it took a while to get it in English, at first it was in Ukrainian, Russian and German, finally, after we pressured them, came out in English, is available on DVD and worth the money. Vlad does not mention the drugging as he had to move past that because of all the prejudice against them in America, etc., but it is very good video.............it's a shame, they wanted to fight a lot in America, but were never accepted..............
