    We've already had Muhammad Ali, Jake LaMotta, Micky Ward, Rubin Carter, and Mike Tyson.

    I think a movie about Joe Louis, Matthew Saad Muhammad, Roberto Duran, Oscar de la Hoya, Arturo Gatti, and Manny Pacquiao would be pretty cool.

    Bit of a longshot, but if the Peterson brohers go on to achieve some relative success their story would make for an interesting movie.

    Ron Lyle has a great story.
     
  10. Margarito... It starts off with a young impressionable Margarito watching Rest Vs Collins with his uncle and thinking to himself...If I could be like Resto...It ends with Margarito living in the back of an abandoned delivery truck holding his plaster wraps and crying while reliving the rematch with Cotto "Tony has been knocked out!!" "Redemption for Miguel... Tony is not responding to the doctor Larry"
