Jack Johnson has a movie written all over it. Focus on his early years and hardships, and base most of it on his being hated and feared by the media and competitors during his reign as HW king. Extended scenes from particular matches could include: Langford; early on in his career Burns; beating in Australia to take the title Ketchell; iconic KD moments and relevancy Jeffries; the "Fight of the Century" Willard; epic KO26 defeat in Cuba, iconic laying on the canvas, end of the era
