    I saw a story about this on a sports documentary a few years ago...absolutely sickening.

    the press release alone lets you know that the movie is going to do it's best to take blame away from resto. the filmmaker states his bias when he says it is a personal account to find justice.

    i remember watching that fight when it happened. and after hearing what happened, it is hard to believe that resto did not know the padding had been removed. as a professional boxer, he must know how his hands feel when punching. so to attempt to make him out as this innocent victim of carlos lewis lewis, imo is not only irresponsible, but disrespectful to the true victim in this case billy connors.
