    Im in as soon as it comes out. Only Big george and Chuvalo seem to still have their cognition intact at this point. Its a rough sport.

    theres a decent book called facing Ali that the doc is based on i think
    15 fighters in the book telling their experiences of facing Ali, its a good read

    That is pretty much the coolest looking movie ever. Between that and the Tyson doc, I'll be in boxing movie heaven. Maybe a trend here?
