Great Boxing Documentaries

This is a "Thrilla in Manila" documentary running about 90 minutes.

 

I really love those Beyond The Glory documentaries.

Another which is very good but unfortunately isn't on Youtube is Facing Ali.
No new insights are gained, but it's great to get a perspective of Ali from the view of his opponents, in this case Henry Cooper, Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, George Chuvalo, George Foreman, Ernie Terrell, Ron Lyle, Leon Spinks, Earnie Shavers and Larry Holmes.

 

harry chapin...who was a wonderful singer / songwriter / storyteller...well...he made that documentary....wrote the words you hear too

 

This is a really good one about Ali and George Chuvalo's first fight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_dmnpD4PVA

Mike Tyson beyond the glory.

Maske:Weltmeisterschaft uber Alles.

 

After The Last Round ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waJTKs_Uv-8

 

I saw a documentary In 1979 called the hardest game about british boxing with a lot of subject matter about randy turpin.id love to see it again but nobody else remembers it.

in 1986 there was a documentary called 64 day hero about turpin, these are probably the best ive seen

 

I met mr buchanan before the return benn-eubank return fight he was brilliant and exceeded the expectations I had of him.

Twisted Fate - The Hilton Family
This is a great doc.A Family of lunatics,Don king involved here again what a crook!What i found most disturbing was Hiltons fans,after 1 of the brothers was found guilty of ***ually abusing children they still came out in droves to support him for his return fight:huh whats up with that?

 

Gives You something to think of. I´ve seen a couple of sad cases myself. But I´ll never lose my fascination for boxing.

 

I had forgot about that documentary. I would recommend watching. The brothers were all messed up alcoholics. Basically no education for any of them. Davey Hilton Jr, was a child molesting scumbag. He forcibly penetrated his own daughters. The daughters have written a book about the horrors the were forced to endure by Daddy Dearest. No sympathy for that freak.
