If I gave you a massive budget to make a film about one boxer

Buster Douglas.

 

I think I must say ,HARRY GREB!

 

Peter Jackson would be an interesting choice to illuminate, I'd say.

 

Jersey Joe Walcott

 

Frankie DePaula?

 

Mathew Saad

Johnny Owen.

Frazier
Norton
Ali
Lyle
Smoking Bert
Dwight Muhammad
Cooney
Holy field
Morrison
Moorer
Shannon the Cannon
What a film !

 

Julio Cesar Chavez - a character who could do with illuminating.

Or Ray Leonard - very much a mysterious, driven character. Though you'd have to work very hard to stop it slipping into the usual, cliched bull**** ie irrelevant focus on his skin colour.

 

Joe Louis

With the proper budget you could make one amazing movie on his life.

Teaser Trailer 1- A mother whose head is out of frame gives small change to a young African American boy- audience hear her dialogue off screen- good luck with your violin lessons today. The young boy snatches the coins from her hand and grabs his violin case from a nearby chair and runs out the front door. We the audience follow the boy as he runs down a dirt road into town we see a sign that says violin lessons here in a shop window- the boy runs right past it- into a dank broken down place-we see him set the case down on a chair and he slowly opens the violin case to reveal worn boxing gloves- fade out- some superheroes are real.

 

Battling Siki.

The classic rags to riches to rags war hero prohibition whodunnit story, with a bit of random lion cub action thrown in.
