    Off the top of my head I'll say Raging Bull and Rocky. A lot of people liked the Ali movie, but I didn't like it that much.

    Watch "Warrior" with Tom Hardy, it ain't boxing it's MMA but really good.

    Rustbelt beat me to it but Fat City is the nearest thing you'll get to a "real" boxing movie.
    No one loves Rocky more than me but it is purely entertainment-led.
    As you get older movies like Fat City hit the spot more.And that Jackie Kallen nonsense was a pile of ****.
    I have no problem with Stallone getting in the IBHOF because Rocky got more people into boxing than any actual boxer IMO.

    Raging Bull, and The Harder they Fall honestly there's a lot of other good one's but also a lot that are even worse than Cinderalla Man.

    I never watched all these, actually not even half!

    BUT! There is another one called "From Mexico with Love" is a cool little flick! Not Much boxing

    If you got a woman, watch " Million Dollar Baby" With her! She will Cry and you will get some ass!

    "Ali" Is a Great movie, but it pissed me off at the end! It really could have continued another 2 hours!

    "Hurricane" Is a good movie, not much BOXING though. But Denzel is my favorite actor and its a good movie!

    "Undisputed" Is a good movie about the JAIL HOUSE CHAMP fights The HW Champ of the world when he gets put in jail!

    "Play It to the Bone"- Is a good one! Pretty funny!

    "Resurrecting THE CHAMP" is THE ****!

    Phantom Punch is 2008 movie with Ving Rhames! He plays Sonny liston! Great movie!
