    Inspired by the Floyd Patterson "Greatness - The Story of Floyd Patterson" documentary thread and its various post responses ("Plumpness - The Story of Tony Galento"), let's have a bit of fun. Pick a boxer or boxing subject to make an imaginary documentary of and give it a humorous (or perhaps not) title.

    I'm not trying to put down any great fighters, or not so great fighters. Just wondering what you all will come up with.

    Foul Factor - The Andrew Golota Story
    Snowblind - The Rise and Fall of Michael Dokes
    Featherfists - The Chris Byrd Story
