    It had loads of interviews from his grandchildren......it had actors reanact his fights......great great info. did u hear some of the conditions he was experiencing prior to the last brennan fight? simply amazing he was able to climb in the ring LET ALONE knock out brennan. one of the best stories i have ever read. dempsey was a gracious dude for giving his dying friend a pay day.

    I am a huge Billy Miske fan.

    He is perhaps the ultimate human interest story of boxing.

    Hope this documentary gets over to England soon.

    He lived an epic life in many ways. An amazing portrait of the human spirit is Billy Miske.

    A film in the future is not out of the question. Naturally a few books will come first.
