    ****ing A! That's cool. Man I've always been thinking when someone will put out a movie on Salvador Sanchez. And I mean with a great director or actor like Diego Luna and probably cast Pedro Fernandez as Chava. Sanchez was very likeable in his time and would of been a media darling yet not much is known about him.

    Winstone's an odd fighter to make a film about.

    he was an excellent boxer but doesn't seem to have the kind of outside of the ring story to capture an audience with.Not sure what direction this film is going for at all.Hopefully a gritty no bull**** film like "fat city" great boxing film from the early seventies with Jeff Bridges, and Curtis Cokes, Yaqui Lopez and others in small roles.

    It's gonna look ridiculous with the size difference. Morales could have at least got into shape for it.

    There's far more obscure names than Junior Witter in it. Dai Davies for one.
